dan1101,

Just one more example of why voting for Trump would be a big step backwards for the USA. Even if you think Biden is bad, Trump would be far worse.

dan1101,

It’s $9 for the standard Game Pass, and was $1 a month until they stopped that last year sometime.

dan1101,

The biggest change to me is how much the streaming services are pushing commercials now. Paying to watch commercials really completes the transition back to cable.

Too late now but I don’t think you’re supposed to drink distilled water. It lacks the minerals your teeth and body need.

Big Video Game Publishers Like Microsoft Are Paving Their Own Path To Irrelevance - Aftermath (aftermath.site)

In recent times, triple-A publishers have repeatedly had their lunch eaten — at least, in terms of mindshare — by more creatively nimble indies. Lethal Companywas last holiday season’s breakout hit, andPalworld followed not long after. https://aftermath.site/the-nerve-of-balatro-for-being-this-goodand...

dan1101,

It’s like they don’t consider Game Pass plays as the game being successful/profitable. They need to reconsider all that.

dan1101,

This has also been a problem in things like children’s pajamas. Unless that has been outlawed I doubt the industry fixed it.

dan1101,

Striker never bent my Wookie, and for that I am grateful.

dan1101,

That’s good, my niece is in Boy Scouts and enjoys it. The Girl Scout troops are all cookies all the time.

dan1101,

I’m with you, there is so much waste in the world. I even feel bad throwing away a pack of ketchup, thinking of all that has to happen for that packet to get into my hand.

The problem with returns on a foot bath is probably no one wants a used foot bath. And also with shipping costs so high the return shipping would probably cost more than their cost to make the item.

dan1101,

Yeah did someone just run or interpret reports incorrectly? If a person subscribes to Game Pass and plays Hi Fi Rush for X months, I’d consider that a sale.

dan1101,

Just the fact that they played some minimum amount should tell them the game contributed to the subscriber’s enjoyment of Game Pass. Otherwise if they are both selling a game and giving it to Game Pass subscribers for free I’m not sure what they are expecting. Can’t have your cake and eat it too, but I’m sure they would like that.

Maybe they are hoping that Game Pass is like extended demos and will lead to more game sales. But there are too many new games all the time for most to hold my interest.

dan1101,

Absolutely agree, just recently instead of buying Manor Lords I just found a good deal on a month of Game Pass. I played it as much as I wanted (for now) for less than $10.

dan1101,

Why was that ever accepted? I don’t care what size it was before milling. If I buy a 2x2 I want a 2x2.

Liberal icon Bernie Sanders is running for Senate reelection, squelching retirement rumors (apnews.com)

Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont announced Monday he will run for reelection this year, squelching speculation that the 82-year-old progressive icon might retire at a time when the Democratic Party is anxious about the advancing age of its top leaders....

dan1101,

Squelching is a word but I normally see it in shortwave radio terminology.

What do you think about this?

Someone told me that if you keep your gaze fixed and imagine a completely black circle right above someone’s head, what you are actually doing is telepathy… so far I haven’t researched more about it but I have noticed that some strange things happen when I do that, I see spirals and the vision looks different, could...

dan1101,

Not a good sign. A friend had a raccoon break into their attic and have babies there.

dan1101,

Meta sucks but they like every other site shouldn’t have to publish anything they don’t want to.

dan1101,

It also doesn’t help that they changed math and you now need an entire sheet of paper for each problem.

dan1101,

I think overall about half the population is smarter and more tolerant.

However we haven’t done much to combat climate change and suburban sprawl is worse than ever.

dan1101,

They won’t pay for that, they would probably rather spend money on developing AI curation.

dan1101,

A bot browsing or posting is not equivalent to a human doing so.

Sears From A Joke Being Torn Down (lemmy.world)

American comedian Ron White frequently tells a story about how his van was damaged in a comedic way by the technicians at a Sears Automotive Center in Savannah, GA. This week, that Sears Automotive Center is being torn down. While the shopping mall that former Sears location is a part of is otherwise doing well, the Sears has...

dan1101,

Yeah during that time my friend tried to buy a pair of shoes in Sears, the salesperson kept pushing him to use a terminal to order online. You know, while he was standing right next to a bunch of shoes that he wanted to buy.

dan1101,

Yeah I felt sorry for the staff. When I would check out towards the end the cashier would insist they had to have my phone number. And they wouldn’t admit to there being any way to bypass it. I actually memorized the store phone number and gave that to them on the rare occasion I went there any more.

dan1101,

They might verify the email. But if you’re that worried about Sony having your email you can just make a unique one for them. You don’t have to give them your primary email.
