it truly is. nature never imagined us having access to all the world's atrocities within the reach of our hand 24/7. empathy is supposed to make us bond within our little tribes, not get bombarded with words of death and misery across the globe

idk how it works in the browser or in other launchers but i use Boost and it's settings -> blocks and filters -> muted words

my personal block list is there for my mental health and sanity and includes: musk, elon, trump, donald, genocide, isreal, palestine.

i still see posts that simply ommit any of the keywords in the title, but there's significantly less of them, which is honestly perfect

a game can be good and have predatory gambling mechanics inside of it. in fact making a game people want to play more of, enables those mechanics to work on a larger number of people

my favourite photo i've ever taken :) of my favourite little critter

it's fascinating how the "top selling" that is measured by "gross revenue" has so many "free to play" games on the top. ahhh the aggressive gambling tactics

with this beautiful job market that requires 5 years of experience for an internship and 10 for an entry level position i think the 6 year old has the right idea starting early

miso kink is where we all want to fuck the soup

somehow skyrim still reigns far above all my other games in the sheer number of hours i put into it (1200h), teenage escapism really picked Tamriel as my digital safe space huh, second highest is terraria with 520h

i bet if my time spent across the various versions and mod packs of Minecraft was counted it would surpass both, but alas, no counter for that (though just adding all my wynncraft characters' time together it's over 150h)

honestly depends on what you'd use it for

if games + small work - steamdeck

otherwise idk

that's what neurodivergent people do to show sympathy - very often unknowingly. folks sometimes think we do that to get the attention for ourselves, but it's just a long winded way of saying "i understand what you feel, you're not alone in your pain"

in my defence of new games, couple of the Early Access ones i've seen grow beautifully with meaningful quarterly updates and clear dev maps. i'm especially happy with Enshrouded and i feel like with a full release the current price will double as it's already a massive world and the map is half filled

(similarly how i got satisfactory in early access in a cheap af bundle and now the game is like double the price of the bundle it was in)

in most places it's legal to buy and have the mycelium itself but it's illegal to let it grow

so many online shops that very clearly are not for scientists with a lil disclaimer somewhere saying "please do not make drugs out of this, this is purely for looking at through a microscope for all the amateur mycologists :))))"

holy hell

i only realised it didn't say "dog" after reading your comment

i was wondering how has lemmy turned so anti-dog!

unless you want to grow them yourself, then they require the most sterile environment

in the wild tho? yeah cow shit will do :)

not realistic enough, unless they always used the speedrun setting on their washing machine, most cycles are 2 hours or more

worry not, it's furries and a lot of submissive people

tl;dr once upon a time everyone spelled words guided only by vibes, then spelling was standardised-ish, then after that there was a great vowel shift where the now standard-ish spelling became less intuitive. add the linguistic influence from French and latin (sprinkle in some germanic & a pinch of skandinavian), add the power balance between classes favouring fancier words (the nobles ate pork, beef, poultry, the peasants tended to pigs, cows, chickens). add some more stuff and there you go! a "functional" language of Anglonic Britonic English!

do they really need changing that often though

i don't go to bed covered in mud so all my sheets get is a bit of occasional sweat at night, i don't get why we should change them so often. they don't even smell!
