Halo is unique. At a time when the military shooter genre was closed in terrestrial (or at best, mars) spaces, Halo presented natural environments filled with gorgeous alien architecture that presents an ancient mystery and a sense of wonder at the scale and the age of a place. Perfectly augmented by the monk-like vocalisations, Halo defies the conventions of military shooters by putting you in a beautiful place that you have to explore, and slowly come to understand.

Wow, that triggered my trauma really bad for a split second. I used to get told that all the time when I was a kid, just because I was curious and neurodivergent. Eventually I came to see that sentence as a symbol of the poor empathy of neurotypicals for autistic people, and of ableism in general. If you said that in my house to a member of my family you'd probably start a domestic incident, because every autistic person I know has a similar experience.

I'm glad Playstation games are coming out on PC now. I bought a PS4 for the exclusives and the ones I bought it for were good, but I'm never gonna buy a PS5.

Funny thing about owning a console is that when Christmas and birthday come along, non gamer family and friends would rather get you a physical object than a steam key. But a physical object is sooooooo inconvenient. So I own the PS versions of RDR2 and AC Oddysey, and I've never finished them and probably never will. They're good games, but it's a bad platform. Bloody annoying.

Lego Island 2 was great

It's a shame they fixed Cyberpunk.

I want to power wash it

 

Lemmy is full of plenty of people who hate me for being trans and disabled. And way too many self-identified leftists who think I'm being trans and disabled the wrong way and am therefore a right wing troll.

Most of the well known Lemmy instances lean communist, even if their admins can be quite socially regressive. As such I've accumulated a reputation as being a troublemaker for the left. I want to go make trouble for the right to fix my reputation. I wanna go talk shit, stir up drama, and get banned. I want the modlogs to say a bunch of open bigots hate me instead of the closet bigots who hate me now. I wanna ruin some nazis' days and call them shitheads. Where do I go on the Fediverse to go make trouble for the open reactionaries?

"Yes, people are dying, but won't someone think about the money?"

Look, the crystal maze is absolutely essential to run Woodchips without a waterslide. You can complain all you want, but unless you want to run back to Microsoft for your woodchips deployment, this is the way. I'm not saying Gumbies is perfect, here, just that it's the only viable unix implementation. If you want come up with your own sandcubing solution for Flurble, be my guest.

That would be so cool! We could do a kind of Asimov story with them if they're intelligent. What are some good rules for mechs to follow in the Apex Legends universe?

And it would all be solved very quickly if we just converted the economy to communism.

I bought a Pixel a because it has a headphone jack. I only cared about one thing. When mine dies, I'll buy whatever still has a headphone jack.
