In the US, did Amazon kill the mall, is everyone too broke, or a combination of other factors? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Honestly malls are thriving where I live, and I go regularly to extremely large crowds. I know it's a trend worldwide, but if all I knew was my local city, I would have no idea.

Why do some Americans get angry at other people for not speaking English? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] SlothMama@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You got voted down, but this is absolutely real. I speak multiple languages, but none with the nuance and clarity of context as I do English. I communicate with folks all across the world that are all English speakers, however, the variance in comprehension is so drastic that at times we're really not using the same language, even if we're using some of the same words.

If you emigrate to a country, it's a reasonable expectation that you'll learn the language. The United States doesn't technically have an official language, English is just de facto, but from a practical standpoint it's absolutely occupying that role, and will in perpetuity.

I can absolutely agree with the premise that being frustrated with language barriers isn't racism, it's an actual real and realized impediment to understanding.

This is the kind of detail that makes me think it was initially written by AI and then passed over by a human.

I literally picked this up on Xbox 360 recently. It's incredible.

Halo Wars made a dent. It had marketing.

I never hear people talk about the animals that are likely dying of a heat stroke (lemmy.world)
 

Sorry for the poor title, but even when people talk about climate change, and know it's hotter for them, people don't actually seem to talk about the impact on the rest of the biosphere.

I can't tell if it's not thought about, or just not discussed as much because it is not 'relevant' to their lives.

I can barely function outside for a few minutes without being drenched in sweat, and some of it is probably poor health and not being used to it, but I can tell sl with certainty that I can't survive outside in this heat, and I'm living as a result of a trick or technology.

The animals though? Some of them are straight up fubbernucked. There will be mass animals die offs and people won't even notice.

With the release of Phantom Liberty, I truly hope this game is remembered fondly (lemmy.world)
 

Maybe I like bad games, or maybe Cyberpunk 2077 was never quite as bad as people say - I'm not sure because I unironically love Forspoken and think it's one of the best games I've ever played.

I did hate on the game hard at release, and a lot of it was well deserved, trying to play it on PS4 or Xbox One ( I picked it up on both ) was actually awful and unstable, I couldn't progress past the club at the beginning of the Street Kid life path so I eventually hung it up for a while.

I bought it at launch, and it was a bad launch, reminded me of the launch of No Man's Sky, except visually the game was stunning, and there was a lot more substance, but it was actually broken.

I ended up giving it a real try at the end of 2021 when I managed to get my hands on an Xbox Series X and it was a drastically different game. This was before the 'next gen' patch, but it had enough fixes and ran butter smooth on the Series X that I ended up getting enthralled.

Y'all this game is good. I had a great build that was frustratingly nerfed hard at the next gen patch ( RIP Overwatch ) but wow the story and world is so interesting, and I feel like this is this AI revolution story just waiting to be told in the background - it's good shit.

I haven't played since the next gen patch, so all that will be new to me along with Phantom Liberty so I'm looking forward to a drastically different game than I played a year and a half ago.

I think CDPR finally did it, or will have did it upon release.

I can't wait.
