Genuine question, does anybody ever hunt with pistols?

Long guns are one thing, handguns are pretty explicitly anti-personnel weapons from my understanding.

Meritocracy is a myth though, perpetuated by those lucky enough to benefit from existing systems.

It's completely circular. I'm on top and the people who are on top are the best so because I'm on top I'm the best.

It never accounts for all the myriad non-merit related ways folks get on top in the first place.

I just feel bad that she had to have a kid with the guy to find this out

Unfortunately, being gay isn't a panacea, and one can be both gay and a huge piece of shit.

This feels like a copypasta

It's funny that you say that. Although it's not I guess replacing Reddit in terms of scale, the browsing experience on Lemmy and that community feeling is actually an improvement for me.

So, I guess for me Lemmy is a more than adequate replacement. I don't want all of Reddit here though, I think that would cause a whole lot more problems than it would solve.

Strongly agreed! That's been my sentiment exactly. That's why I'm not at all bothered when people compare the numbers and show how many orders of magnitude more people are on Reddit. That's just fine with me.

Lemmy scratches the same itch, it isn't the same 5 posts circulating for three days anymore, and we seem to have reached a critical mass where it feels just like it should, but without the shitty bits.

Because third party apps are literally the point that drove a lot of people to Lemmy in the first place. It's classic selection bias.

If you like roleplaying games, absolutely yes. It's way move involved than their previous games (which were also great). Divinity always felt AA at best, but the polish on BG3 is impeccable.

For me what really does it is the professional voice work and motion capture on seemingly every single sentiet humanoid character in the game. Even random folks who have a single line of dialogue have a unique voice and an interesting character design. They don't all blend together, even when they are objectively filler characters.

I don't think they really claim it was CGI though, just practical effects.
