Just gonna point this out, GTA is one of the most accessible games for kids learning to play a game. Shooters are very difficult to grasp aiming with one thumb, moving with another, and shooting. Games where you have to follow instructions or solve puzzles are impossible till a kid gets the hang of games.

GTA? X button gets in and out of any car you want. Driving couldn’t be easier and is so much fun. Get out of the car and run around till you get bored, then just hop in another car.

And when you die? No reading, or lengthy instructions you need to follow. No, just spawn outside a hospital right next to another car.

I always felt like somebody needed to create a GTA clone just for kids. Everything about it should stay the exact same, just cartoonify the violence and get rid of the sex and drugs and stuff.

Fisherfighter was my favorite

It always annoyed me when a post reached the front page and they limited who was allowed to comment on it. I usually didn’t even know what sub I was in until after I typed my comment and clicked submit. Followed by auto mod deleting my post.

I forgot how much I hated that about Reddit. Good riddance.

So the moderated nsfw subs survived?

[–] danc4498 2 points 7 hours ago

They get all the nsfw traffic for the full quarter, and use that for their earnings report. Pretty damn dishonest.

Especially they don’t care. It’s frustrating.

I learned a long time ago that republicans not only are hypocrites, but they are 100% aware of this.

The point is that the people who were attacking Biden for his Israel policies were just Trump supporters (and literal bots) that were masquerading as passionate Israel supporter. They didn’t give a shit about who would be best for Palestine, they just wanted to get Trump elected.

We know this now by the silence from those people now. End game was achieved when Trump got elected.

Not all people with bullshit opinions are bots. But I think the bots make those people think their opinions are more valid than they actually are, which causes them to be more active.

Is Guantanamo considered “outside the rule of law”? Hopefully journalists will be allowed there to report freely in the treatment and conditions.

Ok, they won’t shut down USAID, but all US employees are fired and computers removed and buildings condemned. It’s still operating.

 

Asking for a friend.

 

I had this thought after watching a game where the winning team came back from the 2 minute warning running the victory formation.

It seems dumb to me that we come back from the 2 minute ~~warning~~ commercial break and the only time we have action is if the game is close and the losing team has the ball or has timeouts.

What if instead, the winning team is forced to run plays that actually drain the clock, or attempt to get yards and points. I feel like this would make the last 2 minutes more exciting.

Take the Bills v Chiefs game. It was an exciting game, but Chiefs went into victory formation at the 1:30 mark. What if instead the chiefs would have to keep playing for at least another minute? What other sports can we have a game this close where the last minute+ is this boring?

Alternate idea, under 1 minute, the play clock stops after every play.

Any thoughts? I think both would make for a more exciting 2 minutes, and change the coaching strategy in an interesting way.

 
 

2 great movies about bad moms. One from the child’s perspective, the other from the mom’s perspective.

 

Welcome to my darkness. I spent my life hunting this guy, Morty. This is the closest I've ever been to Rick Prime. It's impossible. He.. He's an incredibly crafty piece of shit. Hunting him destroyed me, Morty, but now we're gonna do it together. You and me. It's going to take over your life Morty! Rick and Morty season 7: Hunting My Nemesis. Maybe trying to stay healthy while doing it? Juggling plates? Not every episode, Morty. It could be all happening in the background. Who knows? No.. Noone will, except us. It.. It's the most painfull shit I've ever had to deal with, but I'm bringing you into it because you asked for it, Morty! You and me Morty!

 

I’m not really sure where to ask this question. Maybe there’s a lemmy dev community where these kind of discussions already happen.

I feel like the default front page in Lemmy is still severely lacking when compared to Reddit’s r/all algorithm. I find hot and top hourly to be nearly identical. The top 6 hour is closer, but still not as good as what the Reddit default front page is.
