“Kick back, watch it crumble See the drowning Watch the fall I feel just terrible about it That’s sarcasm, let it burn”
“Where did all their money go?
Don’t we all know? Parasitic [gaming] industry As it destroys itself We’ll show them how it’s supposed to be”
“Dinosaurs will slowly die And I do believe no one will cry I’m just fucking glad I’m gonna be There to watch the fall
Pre-Historic [gaming] industry Three feet in La Brea tar Extinction never felt so good”
Switch a few words and it works perfectly well.
Gamers need to realise it’s all about the indies. Buy indie, screw AAA. Watch them grow and hire those talented folk that deserve better than this bullshit.
New here. Migrated from Reddit. Still trying to figure out Lemmy - what’s everyone’s experiences like coming from Reddit and does Lemmy serve as a good alternative? Pros and cons/differences?...
So you created an echo chamber more familiar to what you know? I get lemmygrad and hexbear isn’t for everyone but don’t see a reason to ban. Lemmy.ml existed before the influx so has a mix and shouldn’t be generalised.
Today, one day after Microsoft announced that it would shut down four of its games studios, Matt Booty, head of Xbox Game Studios, held a town hall to discuss the division’s future goals. “We need smaller games that give us prestige and awards,” Booty told employees, according to internal remarks shared with The Verge....
I’ve posted here a lot about my mental health, I lost basically everything, I have no one I can talk to, my car is wrecked, I have less than 100 bucks in my bank account, while I have housing their are problems that make it not the best. I have 1k in debt....
Ignore those that don’t agree with your plans. Never let folk impose their morality on you.
You want to go to college? What do you want to study?
Life can throw you some bad cards all at once at times. Solving those little problems can make it less overwhelming and more manageable.
Attraction is a subjective thing. You build a life you’re happy and confident in and people will find that attractive. Looking at your picture, I would be amazed if you didn’t find someone attracted to you. Be patient, it’ll come.
The hormones has been pointed out as possibly having an impact. Maybe give yourself a few months break to see how you feel, then go again. I’m not advocating stopping or quitting, just a pause to tackle a few other life issues before going on with your journey. Life is a marathon and not a sprint and sometimes a rest helps get through that next bit.
Also, sometimes anti-depressants can help at the lowest times. Worth considering. Counselling could be better if it’s something you can get access to.
It depends on whether you rent or own. You rent a flat and you cannot do what you want. Unfortunately, with games, most law is set up so you rent them and are buying a licence to play them within the conditions set out. It sucks, but that is how it is set up.
Because it does the things well gamers want. They want to play together, and talk together (voice chat), and stream showing them bossing or doing something IG. It does those things very well. If matrix gets seemless voice calling and video/screensharing at the click of the button, they would find it easier to make inroads.
It also has sensible defaults for managing users etc. and it’s effortless.
It’s not about features, it’s just about getting the basics right.

Looks like the generation of decision makers may give a toss now. Planet being screwed wasn’t enough, but less wine or more expensive wine and they gonna panic.
Try a better instance. Lemm.ee and Lemmy.ml are both run by competent techies and less knee jerk intolerance to anything other than the prevailing opinion there.

Gosh, you’re insufferable. I’m out. Carry on your hate boner, Elon fan boi (because you spend most of your time reading about and writing about Elon). For someone who doesn’t like Elon, your life seems to be about him. I pity that. Good luck in your crusade.
