I had it set to localtime instead of UTC, which for me is -5 hours. Caused me a bit of grief earlier today after making a new post that started out already five hours old!

It seems like a real pickle though. What if I set my time to a year in the future and make a post? Would that post stay at the top of new all year? I guess lemmy should use the received date rather than what is sent but that could be problematic when things are bogged down or having federation issues.

@danQuix0te sorry, I shouldn't have deleted my comment. Still trying to get the time thing sorted out.

I'm taking this opportunity to test my timezone config

It should, but the quality of the image would be lowered doing it that way.

A group of friends and I had a blast playing this all weekend. The game and that website are both really well-made!

They're fine for now, though we're making things tough for them:

Their population has been dwindling to such an extent I've encountered people that have never seen them before and assumed they weren't real. You must live somewhere nice if you get to see lots of them!

Farmland birds declined by 56.8 percent between 1980 and 2016, he and his colleagues estimate. The next most quickly declining group, urban species, fell by 27.8 percent.

Not enough people have given consideration to the possibility that their grandchildren could grow up with the perspective that birds are fairytale creatures. We have people alive today with that perspective for fireflies, so it's a scary thought.

Thanks for the heads-up, I've had this one on my wishlist for a while! Yasunori Mitsuda is involved with the soundtrack from what I've read, so there's lots of potential.

I'd consider all mass shootings as terrorist attacks. We used to be so scared of the idea of attacks like this after 9/11, I guess people don't mind as much when they are being carried out by our own community instead of ones that can be more easily dehumanized.

If you want a diablo-esque ARPG check out Ghostlore. It has some really cool mechanics with the glyphs, skill grid, and food. Oddly enough, the only multiplayer it supports is local co-op.

Edit: It should be noted that I haven't tried the co-op yet and after looking at the steam page again there's a review saying that it's buggy, so take this recommendation with caution.

Offtopic, but I really like the Atkinson Hyperlegible font and I'm glad to see it being used here!

My account was 14 years old and I had that same feeling. I've been pretty disgruntled with Reddit for nearly a decade, so I'm more surprised that I managed to stick with that site for so long.
