  • BREAKING: Israeli authorities have beaten Greta Thunberg, made her kiss Zionist flag

    Jump

  • The same quote is also in the guardian article.

    “They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency

  • Oblivion leveling guides be like:

  • A friend used to spend time sneaking + auto walking into a door behind which was an npc. He did that to level up the sneaking skill... Edit: oh, op mentioned his trick as well. Still, point stands.

    Meh.. these types of tricks are interesting to discover, but boring to use, imo. If you're gonna play that way imo just use cheats to max whatever skills you want. Less time wasted and more time left to enjoy the game.

  • The crew of the Mikeno, who may have broken the siege of Gaza [UPDATE: Kidnapped by Israel]

  • So basically you're asking me to explain it to you because you don't understand? That's okay if that's the case, I won't judge people that try to understand stuff.

    Jump

  • Yeah, as I was saying xD keep insulting other people's reasoning skills when you can't make the connection between "elected" , "voters rarely know what they're voting long term" and Hamas being designated a terrorist organization after they were elected.

  • Has this ever happened to you?

  • More of a cultural thing, I think. From what I've gathered from a friend that lives in the Netherlands the dutch are pretty serious about paying for their own meals and getting people to pay for theirs. I even remember seeing a sketch made by some dutch people where one gives a bite of their sandwich to a coworker or something and then they tell the coworker that they're owed x amount for it.

  • xD I'm pretty sure then irony is completely lost on them, unfortunately.

  • Greta Thunberg arrested by Israeli forces after military boards aid flotilla headed for Gaza – Middle East crisis live

    Jump

  • Gaza aid flotilla in the title. Not Greta's flotilla. Her name is there because she's the most well known person there, probably and also because not everyone was arrested.

    It says in the article

    The Global Sumud Flotilla said most of its vessels were continuing their journey as of early Thursday morning, nearing the coast of the Gaza strip despite the interruptions.

  • No, it doesn't count as a gift. Even tho she screamed when she got it.

  • Disney reportedly lost 1.7 million paid subscribers in the week after suspending Kimmel

    Jump

  • Yeah, keep replying, that'll definitely prove that you don't give a fuck. Also pretty telling if that's the only point you can argue against.

  • "get this through your fucking head".. lmao.. you'd have a bit more credibility if you weren't wrong out of the gate about the "no name on bluesky".. and the Carano thing... and if you weren't cursing just because people disagree with you... And if you weren't a no name on lemmy... Thanks but.. for now I'll go with the journalist

    You are right about one thing, tho, I'll give you that. Advertisers have a lot more power than me and you. But not all of us together. Sure, getting a ton of people to agree on one thing is hard, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. That's what they want you do. To be little obedient little sheep that think they can't do anything.

  • Disney has over 200k employees. Is it really that much of a stretch that one of them talked to a journalist? I'm not an accountant.. haven't ever talked to one that handles my workplace, but I still know how much money we're making and how much other branches of the same company are making and what the drama in the other places is and so so much more.. people talk... It's that's easy.

    And even if it's a lie.. Is the 4B drop from disney also a lie? Is the fact that they promptly brought him back also a lie? The fact the first show after his return was watched by 3 times the normal amount of people? The number might be real or it might not, that's how journalists' sources work, but it's accurate that the boycott worked. Even if there were only 10k people, it still had a visible effect. That's what matters.

    Fun yet unknown gameplay MECHANICS? (POLL)

  • Vice city has a cheat code that makes cars fly. Although it's more like leapfrog because you need to accelerate in order for the game to push you up to fly.

    So when I was a kid I used to get the tank and turn the gun around and shoot it and use it as a propeller for infinite flying.

  • The Video-Game Industry Has a Problem: There Are Too Many Games | Jason Schreier

  • Dunno how accurate this is but it says they sold 46k units. Not quite for nobody, is it? Even if everyone got it at 50% off, that's still 322k after steam's cut.

    Jump

  • But which are these undiscovered gems? Feels like we're talking hypotheticals because googling hasn't produced any examples. I feel like it's also very subjective because it's quite easy to really like a game and feel like it's a 10/10 for you even tho for most other people it's just a 6/10 or maybe worse.

    I enjoy stuff like caves of qud or whatever but I understand why it's not more popular. It's not for everyone.

  • Of course. But the good stuff will rise to the top. Especially in games. When it comes to bands, unfortunately not always the case, that's true. But that's a society issue. Universal basic income would help.

  • Slop, sure. There's always people that wanna try making easy money. But I think oversaturation is when there's too much of the good stuff or when the good stuff doesn't get seen because of too much slop. Is that the case? Because, again, I'd argue that it's more about the appeal and the quality of the games than a discoverability/oversaturation issue.

    If you like every kind of game out there, sure, you'll never have enough time for every single one of them. But for those that only like driving games? Or only strategy games? Or only RPGs? I'd argue that there aren't enough high quality games out there. Way too many times I felt the need to play a specific kind of game only to look and not find anything new or to only find low quality games.

  • What do you mean hundreds daily? We barely get 1 a month and even that is a stretch. I actually do listen to new metal releases almost every day and I can promise you, most of them are a 6-7/10 at best. I'm not some snob or picky listener either, so it's not a me problem.

    So yeah, music might have a discoverability issue due to sheer number of stuff coming out, but I don't think gaming is quite there yet.

    As for the funding, I agree. But that's a society issue, not a gaming specific one. There's starving artists in every art form. If anything, game devs have it easier than most others. I remember watching a video from some game conference by a solo dev that was specialized in making solitaire games (I think? I can't find the vid anymore, unfortunately). He was basically showing how you can make a living as a dev without ever having a hit or anything of the sort.

  • Well, not everything has mass appeal. That's why I gave a metal album as an example. Despite it being a masterpiece, not everyone will listen to it because it's not for everyone. Same with games. Not every game will sell as much as it deserves, but I believe it's more because of it not being appealing enough and not because there's a discoverability issue

    The closest I could find about games that are masterpieces that flopped are either old games, which is a different issue or stuff like prey (2017) or Titanfall 2. So pretty big games, just not huge.
