However, she solved the more important issue that there was a post-it glued on top of the screen.

Well, one thing is that it is a ranking of 50 games without a word of explanation how this ranking was created. Who says #37 is better than #38 is better than #39 is better than #40? And then also, if this is a ranking, why make it that big in the first place? Different people have different tastes, but a ranking says #1 is the best game, #2 the second-best, #3 the third-best - who should care for the 50th-best one if there were 49 better games this year alone?

EDIT: This was meant to be a reply to the “What’s odd about this list?” comment.

I haven’t played GTA Online in a while, but a thing we always used to do in our group was ending the session by visting someone’s apartment or biker club or yacht or whatever, going to the bar there, and getting drunk until someone had to respawn at the hospital. Visits to public nightclubs or the casino and getting drunk there (sometimes even dancing or gambling before doing so!) was more a mid-session thing for us.

Isn’t it like 2 clicks to claim a game on Epic, and about a million clicks to play it anyway?

Also, the explanation of what the Naked Brutality scenario is and that they did multiple runs in it is nearly as long as the actual report of one of these runs (which ended on day 3), followed by the longer description of a multi-month backup people run, which basically has nothing to do with Naked Brutality.

And that’s the idea actually. The Guide Michelin was really kind of a guide “what to do with a car” (in 1900 that was a question: now I got this modern thingie, but what can I do with it?). One possibility is to go to a restaurant, of which there are three categories (1 to 3 stars): worth a stop, worth a detour, worth a journey.

Does it? My understanding was that it would basically just map Windows calls to Linux calls. As it doesn’t yet cover everything under all conditions, there may be situations where the Proton devs have to add something in order to properly support a certain game, but that’s not because that game is doing something wrong, but just because those were the particular gaps in Proton’s functionality that happened to affect this game.

A few years ago as part of a 12-startups-in-12-months effort, […] It didn’t get much traction

I think I can imagine a connection.

Compared to Reddits 55 million daily active and many more (400-something million, some much more) monthly active users, and facing a never-seen wave of protest, coming in a rarely-seen form that actually affects the average user, I would have expected much more for Lemmy by now.

But what isn’t already may still come true. I see more potential for Lemmy & Co to overcome Reddit than I see e. g. for Mastodon to overcome Twitter, for various reasons. And one of them is that an alternative to Reddit is much less depending on one big bang migration wave than a Twitter alternative would be.
