Blorbos from my friend group’s shared imagination

The list from english wikipedia says my country (Brazil) only recognised Palestine in 2010

But in portutugese wikipedia it is said we’ve recognised them since 1975.

I don’t know which one is right, so.

I explained my fursona to my therapist.

It was

A fun time.

Your comics are so cute.

Also man. I was part of 1(one) campaign that made it to high level. And it is a bit of a magical experience.

When our crew of sky pirates flew into town everyone immediately knew who they were, local authorities and groups of people were always either trying to court their favour or get rid of them at any cost, they never needed to introduce themselves – They were the Monarchs of the Storm, and their career had started with them causing an entire criminal empire to crumble (specifically because they’d messed with their friends), and only gotten more intense and destructive from there.

Shame one of our players disappeared because of Life :tm: and so we haven’t played in almost a year.

Might be me, I have mostly been emulating for the past month. And that only goes through the steam client on the deck

Exquisite taste.

Seconding the Zelda rec, Majora’s being my favourite as well, with Minish Cap being a close second. (narrative-wise, that is)

I’ve been gaming on Linux exclusively for 3 years now. So. These are all proton-tested-and-approved. Though a couple (especially the old ones) require a bit of tinkering.

• Pillars of Eternity I and II – Slow burns. cRPGs. Get very good, but take a while to get there
• Tyranny – Same developer, also a cRPG, but gets to the point faster, and in fact can be finished in one weekend. Do note: It’s an “evil campaign” type of RPG.
• Pyre – A fantasy basketball game with a Visual Novel on the side. Very touching story, made me cry twice. And the gameplay is no slouch either, even if I kinda suck at it. (… Though when you lose the games you don’t game over, the story just changes)
• Wolfenstein the New Order – FPS set in an alternate history where the nazis won WW2, where you play a resistance fighter. Very enjoyable action, and it always feels good to blow nazis away.
• Dishonored 2 – Stealth-FPS/Immersive Sim where you play as an assassin-princess who can turn herself into a horrid tentacle monster. Also a nice story.
• Enderal: Forgotten Stories – Skyrim Total Conversion title. Very surreal and trippy story. Pushes the Skyrim engine to its absolute breaking point to realize the developers’ vision, and doesn’t always get there.
• Fallout: New Vegas – I mean, if I didn’t bring it up, someone would. New Vegas is a flawed and messy game, but it is just about competent enough that you are fine with it being less-than-ideal in the name of getting to the story.

If old games & emulation are on the cards –

• Terranigma (SNES) – What if Legend of Zelda… But you are literally creating the world by doing your quest. It’s nuts. I love it.
• Legacy of Kain series (PS1, PS2, PC) – Very flawed gameplay on all of them (each in its own unique way)… But it is legitimately one of the greatest tales ever told through gaming. (note: It’s also edgy)
• Prince of Persia Sands Trilogy (PC, PS2, GC, Xbox) – This little trilogy of games from the sixth generation delivers in both elegant platforming gameplay and entertaining storytelling. Does suck that they are from a time that game devs thought subtitling your cutscenes would make your skin fall off (or something. No games back then had subbed cutscenes and it sucked)
• Paper Mario/Mario & Luigi series (Nintendo machines) – Comedy RPGs about the Mario characters (duh). Very well written, especially Thousand Year Door (GC/Switch) and the original Mario & Luigi (GBA/3DS). Story is as vanilla as you’d expect, since it’s Mario, but it is worth it for the comedy imho

Said like 80 times in this thread already but, Open Source & Free software (papa stallman will murder my family if I don’t make the distinction)

Fifteen years ago when I first got into it, Linux was a programmer/sysadmin’s OS that could cover one’s web browsing needs and run some media players and retro console emulators.

Nowadays it is a reasonable daily driver for high-end gaming, it can cover 85% of the creative tasks I do for work, plus all the shit it did back then, all the while being faster, lighter, and comfier than windows.

There’s good libre applications for pretty much everything I care about.

And now we even have open-source powered social media (hi we’re in Lemmy)

Fuck, even if I’m this close to butlerian jihad thinking in regards to the whole concept, I’ll give it up for the advancement of open source AI models. I might think the whole invention is poison, but better for it to be a public, shared, community built poison than one under the thumb of three megacorps.

I want posts where people are talking u-u

Watching the discussion here I finally get how it feels like to be a centrist. And it feels dirty.

Anyway, good for them, or whatever. Hyprland was a’ight when I tested it, even if it ain’t my thing. Still hoping for a Wayland Compositor that gives an XFCE-type experience (that is to say, UX without Gnome’s ‘opinionated’ weirdness, and without all the fancy effects that Plasma has. Relatively lighter, also looks a bit retro)

Not a terrible idea for a lot of things, but one of the shit posts living rent free in my head was literally just called “bunny”

Respect for keeping the comment online so others learn from your mistake.

Believe it or not… Vimwiki (&& syncthing for synchronisation across my machines)

it’s rather no nonsense idk. I’m not even a vim wizard, I just know the bare basics

Finally

ClosedSUSE

I feel this says more about the Simpsons and its place in pop culture than it does about the quality or otherwise of Google’s algorithm

I imagine that’s a horny thing

Shame

There are a billion straight up shitposts in YouTube that sent my sides to the orbit of Proxima Centauro, but which I couldn’t ever find again in my life because yeah titles and SEO keywords aren’t a thing

The “collapse” is a cope. A non denominational version of the rapture. It being “all over” is something people dream of because oblivion also means an end to pain.

Society won’t “collapse”.

Life will just get shittier and shittier in such a slow, gradual manner that most people won’t even realise it is happening. More work for less pay, less rights and freedoms, more repression, more wars, etc.

Would it make it better or worse if I told you it actually kinda-sorta worked?

• “Does my gaydar tell me anything about how to get back to civilisation?”
• “Listen up, Poundland-Sundowner”
• “So wait, I blew up the mayor’s house and my punishment is I’m made into a college professor?”
• “Now back to mare’s milk”

That they’re a condescending and unpleasant person.
