Lemmy is better than Mastodon, for sure, but man do I resent the move the Internet made from bulletain boards to “content aggregators”. Topics fall off on Lemmy and Reddit almost as fast ad on microblogging platforms. They’re still geared towards new content, not ongoing discussions.

I've decided to use #lemmy (or to be precise, a TTRPG-specific instance) some more for discussing #ttrpg -related topics. -
Nintendo isn’t selling fewer Switches because people stopped liking handheld gaming.I really don’t have qualms about the game prices. People have obsessed over the increase, but honestly, I don’t buy console games without deep consideration, and I play them for years. $90 CAD vs $120 CAF is meaningless on that level.
But I’m not spending $700 on a Switch. I didn’t ask for a portable. I have no need for the little screen, and I resent paying for the tiny microcontrollers that cramp up my hand. It’s less valuable to me for all of the portability elements, not more. Definitely not 40% more than I paid for my Switch 1.

Every so often, I wander into a YouTube hole by a group of women who feel the need to "defend men".Chris Trottier Oh, no, I know many of them are sincere. But the content is 100% for the entitled go-nowheres who are upgrading these women’s standard of living.

Every so often, I wander into a YouTube hole by a group of women who feel the need to "defend men".Also, what is even going on here? Who is this content for?
Aggrieved men. Dudes who think there was a world where just having a dick meant that women happily and enthusiastically cowtowed to them, and who feel robbed by not being born in whatever era they think that was. Guys who believe their birthright to being right was stripped of them by, I don’t know, DEI or something.
These guys will get caught in any thirst trap that services their ego in any way.

Makes sense to methegreatdarkness@ttrpg.network Sure. You should be able to use LotR to explain the rules of any fantasy RPG system, really.

Makes sense to meLotR is running Pathfinder 2e under the hood, by the sounds of it, using Proficiency Without Level.

Economists are now arguing that an AI bubble is *less* likely precisely because everyone won’t shut up about the possibility of an AI bubble.You’d think that, one of these days, economists would understand that they’re a descriptive social science, and not a predictive hard science.
Some day, maybe.
