  • I think you can do a peaceful protest and still have it be effective, as long as it's disruptive. Strikes are a good example. Rich people care about a protest as long as you can threaten their bottom line

  • Yes, English can be weird. It can be understood through tough thorough thought, though.

  • All of Shakespeare

  • How about another one

  • English teacher: "wow, look at the incredible symbolism in the camera work"

    Creator: "uhhhh.... this is a documentary, and that was a video that some bloke took with his phone"

  • That will likely make for some interesting vocal performances

  • He's an unmodified clone, so presumably he has one

  • I'd actually expect it to be that way more often than not. If you're poor you can't spend recklessly, and if you have a big enough income there's much less reason to budget much.

  • Look, I respect anyone who has the courage to peacefully share their beliefs, even if I disagree with those beliefs. It's a tough thing to do, and it's rare that you know if had any effect at all.

    I do think the way you're going about it is not good, especially here. I suggest getting to know the people here better before evangelizing much more. It will be more effective, and make you come across as a bit less of a dick. Lemmy users are majority atheist, with at best an academic view of religion. Try to understand that perspective first, so you can talk to people instead of talking at them.

  • In most cases, yes. But it is better for carrying dirty stuff, and the canopy can be taken off of you need to carry something huge.

    Still worse for most uses, plus utes and SUVs are way too big to be practical most of the time.

  • I'm not gonna bother with saying that the other losses that you're discounting can be just as tragic as losing a romantic partner. Everyone else here has said it probably better than I could.

    What I'll bring up is that not only are there more kinds of revenge motivation than the loss of someone close to you, there are more motivations than just revenge. For other kinds of revenge, what about wounded honour? A hunter who's prey keeps escaping them might feel the need to finally end that hunt before they can look themselves in the eye. That's its own form of revenge arc, and it can make just as powerful a story as avenging the loss of a loved one. And for non revenge motivations, there's far too many to list, but here's a start

    • duty
    • repaying a debt to the world
    • self improvement
    • survival (usually more of a side character motive compared to a hero protagonist, but still good)
    • seeking admiration (from people in general or from a few important people)
  • They came for the porn games

    Did they now?

  • Oh right. The costume. The costume for Kuzco. The costume chosen specifically to look like Kuzco. That costume?

  • Unicorn for sure

  • oui oui

  • Wait til that "assault with a deli weapon" guy hears about this

  • Mindustry: an automation tower defense game

    Shattered pixel dungeon: a classic Roguelike dungeon crawler

    Slay the spire: a deck builder Roguelike. Probably one of the most popular in the whole Roguelike genre

    Peglin: a lot like slay the spire, but plinko instead of cards

  • Smart tvs aren't as bad of a concept as smart fridges. A smart TV is better at being a TV than it otherwise would be, purely because it is smart. A fridge doesn't have that. There is no way that a fridge can be better at being a fridge by being smart.

  • I would say that's too cursed to have been made for any reason other than as a joke, but knowing how unacceptable some of the gelatin heavy recipes from when the boomers were young, I can't really say for sure

  • There was a guy who tried something similar. He got the custom number plate "null", hoping the database would record any entries of his plate as null not "null" so it would not go back to him. Ended up doing the opposite, and he got all the tickets from whenever the cop didn't record the plate.
