Sony. What are you even doing right now? PS5 Pro Announcement
  • I did watch the video. It's why I asked. Anyone can say they are a consultant, and he doesn't really mention much to back that claim. He doesn't say anything novel either.

    I'm not trying to be hypercritical, but if someone says that they are a credible source I want to know why.

    Sony. What are you even doing right now? PS5 Pro Announcement
  • Who is this guy and why should I care what he says?

    Edit: Since no one could answer it. He's an indie developer and made a few games. Silver Falls, Clasherball, and Animelee. He also says he's a consultant, based on the video, but I couldn't find anything of him doing that.

    So he's slightly a step above a regular guy making some video complaining.

    California officials get aggressive on homelessness after Supreme Court ruling
  • Maybe in large encampments but from my daily experience of watching a never ending battle from the police and a homeless spot they typically don't do that. They just tell them to leave, but they just come back eventually.

    Everyday I walk by a spot where homeless congregate. At the beginning of the week there a few rambling around. By EOW there are 30 just sleeping coming down from their high or smoking meth. The cops come, tell them to leave, then it starts all over again.

    They aren't exactly bothering anybody other than the smell and that the city has to power wash the parking structure on a weekly basis because they all piss and shit in it.

    Look I care for these people, I'm not trying to sound all NIMBY here, but these are the type of people who don't want help. They want to stay in their hole. The only assistance you can give these people other than abducting them and put them in a facility, is to tell them to leave and go to a shelter. Addiction is a mother fucker, and the only disease you can get yelled at for.

    They called an "emergency meeting" this week to solve the mystery
  • Macroeconomics 101 would tell you no, prices won't go down because prices are sticky. Like your salary for example, just because a business is doing poorly your wage won't go down.

    I won't get into the weeds about it, but if Ukraine was magically restored tomorrow, prices wouldn't go down but it would help prices from going up faster.

    If we see prices go down that's a bad thing, and we are in for a rough time.

    Actors demand action over 'disgusting' video game sex scenes
  • I agree. I typically skip sex scenes in movies. Those scenes very seldom add anything to the story imo.

    Unless it makes sense. In "What Women Want" with Mel Gibson, I believe that is a great example of a sex scene adding to the movie. The whole premise is him reading women's minds, so him having sex with Marisa Tomei and hearing their thoughts while in the act added to the premise.

    So when I see a movie that is just like "hey these people are hot and we should film them go at it" is just boring imo.

    Some subreddits could be paywalled, hints Reddit CEO
  • Never said it didn't, but reddit is more left leaning than right as a whole.

    Lemmy is just straight lefty though. I'm a liberal person so it doesn't bother me other than it just being a massive circle jerk most of the time.

    Look I understood that when I made that comment no one would like it, but it's just the truth...

    I've been here since the API garbage from reddit, and use it daily so I feel like I can make an honest assessment of my experience thus far.

    I like it, its great. Better than reddit in a lot of ways. If someone is/was a heavy Reddit user I recommend it.

    Some subreddits could be paywalled, hints Reddit CEO
  • Welcome to Lemmy! If you thought Reddit was left leaning, you're in for a wild ride!

    Also if you're an American you probably shouldn't be, because they automatically assume you're from the Bible belt. They will simultaneously say they don't care for American politics but then will always be talking about it.

    Linux is the best OS just don't get into it. You better be using firefox. All the niche subs you had on Reddit aren't here, and you'll more likely just be blocking communities instead of subbing to anything.

    And no one reads the articles, way more than reddit imo

    The comments are slightly more interesting though.

    It's not all that bad though, I'm being a little sarcastic, but only a little...

    Will Deadpool & Wolverine save the Marvel Studios slump? Disney boss Bob Iger says it'll be the biggest MCU movie "in a long time"
  • Yeah the last two were done by Taika Waititi, and if you've seen any of his other movies its on par with that directing style.

    Imo Thor Ragnarok was the best standalone Thor movie, even if they completely changed the character.

    The Love and Thunder one just felt like a repeat of Ragnarok in a lot of ways.

    Will Deadpool & Wolverine save the Marvel Studios slump? Disney boss Bob Iger says it'll be the biggest MCU movie "in a long time"
  • I recently decided to rewatch all the Marvel movies, because I'm boring, and after Guardians it took a pretty big turn.

    Going from the more gritty drama with some funny one liners ever so once in awhile, to let's see how many one liners and nonchalant comedy we can put in.

    Then after Endgame they ramped that shit up
