  • I think it's okay if there's a service charge, but it should be obvious like this and tipping afterwards shouldn't even be brought up. It's not the best solution for everyone but it's a step in the right direction of no fucking tipping

  • I didn't expect to chortle as much as I did

  • If you use your sword to stab your shield, you'll create an axe with spinning blades

  • I know everyone's on Baldur's Gate 3 lately but I just finished Death Stranding and I teared up. What a game, what a story, what an experience. Highly recommended to anyone looking for something atmospheric and unique. Making deliveries may sound boring but I found that if you just take your time and really let it take over your mind, it's so easy to get lost in it all.

  • Monster Hunter. I must have spent over 1,800 hrs. on the two latest series. I can't exactly turn my brain off with this game but nothing makes me more comfortable than having a Lance or Charge Blade in my hands.

  • While we're on silly season... Norris replacing Perez in the RB would send me through the roof

  • Well this might be an anomaly but the company I worked for in the Philippines gave you a dedicated hour for lunch and two 15-minute breaks, plus two hours weekly for any of the workshops/learning opportunities they provide.

  • This makes me think we need a c/distressingmemes -(and maybe a counterpart unique to Lemmy, c/destressingmemes)

  • For me, it feels great to do a few laps in a racing sim like Assetto Corsa Competizione after a long day. Even something more arcade-y like Forza feels good to me.

    If I don't feel like like driving at the end of my day though I'd probably hop on Monster Hunter or a story-based single player game.

  • I had a hard time understanding why people would listen to Rogan after reading all these articles about him. Then my wife and I talked about it for a little bit and I took a listen to an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience.

    I'm completely talking out of my ass here but I think Rogan is a good/influential conversationalist. I think people get carried away by his views because of the convenience of his skill, kinda similar to how some people tend to err on the broad side of being agreeable when talking to a stranger for the first time, at least in a North American context. Set up the "conversation" as a podcast and it's easy for familiarity to build with his audience. People getting familiar with his content then subconsciously decide that they really agreed in the first place because he talks nice and now they're a fan.

    Great orators are amazing at getting you to nod your head in agreement. I've "fallen victim" to it as well with Obama in his 2004 DNC speech. Just rose tint everywhere. It's a little easier to understand through this but of course I am so open to being completely wrong about this. What do you guys think?

  • I haven't played a lot of games like this but from all of the games I've played in the past 20-ish years, this one shot up to near the top of my list. I must have dropped at least 200 hours on this game on my first playthrough, just appreciating every little detail there was and doing all of the side quests.

    The gameplay itself is already amazing, but to me what really shone was the brilliant, brilliant writing. I have never read such intensely hued writing in a video game.

  • I remember my first social studies class

  • I TRIED. SO. HARD.

  • I'm still on Death Stranding like last week. I can't get enough of this game, though I wish the Director's Cut version was available on Game Pass

  • I agree but my dude this meme format is for being intensely sarcastic about things you hate, not saying how much you actually love something

    It's cool though
