C'mon @ivanafterall. You can't go so hard on users. They're just getting their feet wet in the Fediverse and your tone could make them feel they can't have a submersible experience into the new culture. Then again, your comment won't be lost in a vast ocean of noise.

if you open the settings gear just under your name in the upper right, you can select auto media preview to yes and you will not need to click in a thread to see

just grabbed god of war, disco elysium, and hellblade senuas sacrifice...

as far as recommendations go, Mass Effect legendary edition and dragon age are very enjoyable if you like RPG with a focus on lore, story and characters. Red Dead Redemption 2 is a wonder and a steal at $20. Witcher 3 for $12. Horizon Zero Dawn for $16.50

i've really enjoyed the Orville. It tries to find itself the first season but really evolves into a truly wonderful show.

Seriously. I was shocked as well. I didn't know how I was going to feel about it after the 1st season but I'm really glad I kept watching.

it means your government cannot limit your right to speak, write, and share ideas and opinions. you can say whatever you want but be ready for consequences for saying stupid, racist, bigoted stuff from the rest of your fellow countrymen.

The 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre

The 1921 Attack on Greenwood was one of the most significant events in Tulsa’s history. Following World War I, Tulsa was recognized nationally for its affluent African American community known as the Greenwood District. This thriving business district and surrounding residential area was referred to as “Black Wall Street.” In June 1921, a series of events nearly destroyed the entire Greenwood area.

Well of course they won't release the names of the deputies that did this. That would hurt their chances of getting hired the next county over. /s

hmmm it's almost as if releasing an incomplete/broken game is bad for business/reputation and seems to cause a tough row to hoe to gain back gamer's trust... weird.

yeah, last year some chucklehead was firing off big fireworks and set my neighbor's roof on fire. it was around midnight and very scary. one's desire to see pretty bang bangs does not override other's desire to not lose all their shit to a fire.

they had to cut into the roof with chainsaws to get the fire out. there was big damage to the roof and from the water damage from the hoses down from the second and first stories. it really sucked for them. they never found out who the person was so they were responsible for the deductable.

@jesus_fish I've had the same experience. I have started several times only to get really bogged down with the different story lines. @Briongloid maybe you can offer some tips? I am unfortunately a "grab all the things" RPG player and that game doesn't really give you any indication of what you should keep, is there a crafting component that i'll need this stuff for later, etc. Also, i tend to like to explore but i very quickly tend to get into "kick my ass" territory and it becomes more of a slog than an adventure.

Yes, they're saying I won't have power until 3pm. It's been out since 9pm. It has been record high heat. I am going to look for a hotel

Now it's Friday. I'm hearing it could be as late as Sunday before I get power again. Welp, looks like I'm going into debt because a stand by generator is on the menu.

Currently, on the main instance, people have created 40191 accounts (+214 marked as deleted). I don't know how many are active because I don't monitor it, but once again, I greet all of you here :) In recent days, the traffic on the website has been overwhelming. It's definitely too much for the basic docker-compose setup,...
