I do it constantly on Lemmy and constantly in my inner voice throughout the day.

It has individual good moments but I think it's problem is that it tried to tackle too many plot lines all at once without all of them feeling totally connected.

If it was just about the vinci corruption or just about Vince Vaughns mob, or just about the dealings with the girls being taken to the parties, it would have been a much stronger show. Or just drop one of the storylines and find stronger connections between them. The ensemble cast is good, the forced romance was pretty bad.

The biggest problem in my opinion, and echoed by many others, is that every main character is trying to be Rust. Extremely smart, depressed and just way too philosophical about everything. There was no straight man to cut through the highbrow musings, so every character felt majorly up their own ass. Woody harrelsons character was an important grounding point.

Season 3 goes a different direction and is much stronger for it. It feels closer to season 1 but different enough so it doesn't feel like it's retreading old ground.

Not accounting for rust and weather impact, EV brakes systems last much longer due to regenerative braking from the motors being used before the brake system is engaged.

I am working on my bachelor's degree in computer networking and I still find Lemmy a pain in the ass to search sometimes.

Communities are too small, fractured and not enough people post. 1% rule and all that

I'm probably wrong but I think because it takes a lot more user effort to navigate Lemmy and find your communities, and those communities can be spread across many instances.

It's just easier for those that are interested in the community around those interests to use something like reddit or a specific forum site.

Lemmy is mostly tech dorks, which isn't a bad thing but that leads to the tech and programming communities dominating the feeds. Also I think people who have been using Lemmy for a while vastly overestimate the appeal of the platform and also tech literacy of the general population. It can feel intimidating and uninviting.

They are mission based and very fast paced. AC games are generally pretty challenging and designed to be replayed a lot for mastery and for trying out different mech loadouts as you unlock parts and weapons over time.

They are Balinese cats. Long haired cousin to the Siamese and they are hypoallergenic.

It took me a while but now that their face patterns have developed I can tell them apart when they look at me.

Ghost (close) and Griffin (far)

I picked up 2 copies of Helldivers for me and my partner during the steam sale. Game is great fun and runs smoothly on steam deck. Totally worth $5.

I am down for politics returning to being boring.

I was living in Los Angeles at the start of the pandemic. I was really enjoying my $0.11/Kw charging when gas was approaching $6-7/Gallon.

For most drivers, the math can make a lot of sense.

Tesla pulled a hattrick by making people who couldnt give a shit about the environment want to buy an EV, and they did that by making the car pure fun.

With all the major brands announcing support for the NACS connector I will be keeping Rivian in my sites in a few years. If they can get the price right for their next generation, lower cost models they could be a compelling package.

They where pretty toast at that point. they wore down pretty evenly, only rotated once.

4 new OEM tires at a tesla service center hit me for about $1250.

Good point. My car has 55K miles. Recommended lifespan for the factory tires being 30K, I was dumb and ran the original tires till 34K miles.

There are a lot of ways they could handle it. Imagine the New York Times or similar organizations with their own customized Mastodon for live updates and Lemmy for linking to articles and for searching. Mastodon being the free to follow and the Lemmy/main site being subscription to make an account and comment.

Oh dang I didnt know it came to steam! I am tempted to buy it but also feeling like I should just let it stay in my childhood memories.

This is really fascinating to me. It would be interesting to see each country set up their own Mastodon/Lemmy/Kbin/other federated systems and have those instances constantly talk to each other. Like others have commented, It seems like a great way to keep the communication style and interaction of twitter/facebook, while also protecting the validity of the information through private instances. Really smart decision.

I've had mine for 5 years. I wanted an EV and at that time (in the US) there really was no option even remotely close with the combination of range, charging convenience and technology.

Elons downfall sometimes makes me slightly embarrassed to be associated to it in any way, but its still a great car, not perfect but great. 5 years and I've had to replace a set of tires, wiper blades and fluid, and 2 sets of cabin air filters. That's it.

Its popular to hate on Elon and its rightly deserved but come the fuck on.

Same. I made it to act 3 and was immediately completely screwed. Hate to give up on such a long campaign run so I had to give the game a break.

Yeah I was in the same boat. Things can go bad very quickly. I think the game expects you to hang out in each chapter for a long time and really optimize your station. It's HARD.
