I haven’t yet seen dark souls beaten purely by cosmic ray bitflips but I’m sure someone is busy with that

Its also, apparently, a viable method of beating dark souls

These guys (derogatory)

Those roll-up dance mats from the old ps2 dance dance revolution style games. They were unreliable as all hell.

Oh hell yes. The game pushes you to heights you never thought you’d achieve. And its there to catch you every time you fall.

I think that farewell and the c-sides are some of the most enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding gaming experiences I’ve ever had. Keep it up!

Celeste! One of the best games ever made, with a flawless Linux native version

A reminder that Microsoft coined the term “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” and they are going to continue doing this on purpose

Anti plastic propaganda is a hilarious sentiment. I’m sure it exists, but we aren’t meant to have plastic in our testicles.

Being fat and sedentary is also a problem, but two (or more) problems can exist and all require attention.

Its incredibly difficult to join beehaw without knowing what its about. When you apply to join they explain what it is and ensure that you’re actually, like, on board with the mission. I can understand the sentiment of users finding themselves underwhelmed and leaving if they don’t understand why.

As someone with accounts on other instances, I’ve definitely encountered far more bigotry and bad faith arguments off-beehaw than on-beehaw. For some people, which would appear to include you, encountering the asshole and blocking and moving on is sufficient, and that’s fine and awesome for them. But for others who may be part of marginalised communities or particularly vulnerable, the bubble of safety and curation that beehaw offers is so tremendously valuable.

Beehaw has defederated from instances they felt were not meeting a minimum standard of moderation and healthy, good faith discussion. Beehaw’s whole shtick is to maintain a platform where its users can be(e) kind and expect others to behave similarly.

It is genuinely baffling to me how people can see beehaw curating their instance this way and go “feewings” and “beehaw bad”.

I think you mean legally distinct horror kart

Absolutely, but its well worth the cost. You improve your own life and the lives of all of the people you interact with since you’re not projecting your trauma or having them bear the weight of your mental ill health as much.

It isn’t a cost that everyone can afford and that’s okay, but it should be high on pretty much everybody’s list of “things to get”.

This is a thread about things people bought. Money is implied.

Ah glad to hear it!

Please play Tunic if you haven’t already - your praise for Outer Wilds leads me to believe you’d adore it

In no particular order:

Tunic, Outer Wilds, Undertale, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Celeste, Hollow Knight, Ori And The Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps, Citizen Sleeper, The Talos Principle

If you force me to choose a top 3 of those:

• Tunic
• Outer Wilds
• Celeste

Private therapy sessions. Get therapy.

Getting therapy.

Get therapy everyone. Seriously.

Honestly even your average tech bro isn’t doing as well as they “should” be. Mass layoffs and unreal churn in the tech industry mean that while tech bros are perhaps less affected by inflation than your “average joe” in some other sector, its still the ceos and that lot who are winning.
