I linked a deleted post on the body of this post, try clicking on it. It should bring up a "couldn't find post" screen and reset Jerboa after going back.

I'll say I also use the app URLCheck to open urls, and my phone uses MIUI OS, in case that's relevant.

Edit: okay I think it might not be jerboa's fault, rather a weird interaction with URLcheck when opening links that aren't handled directly by jerboa.

I think it creates a different instance of the jerboa app or something, resetting it. But I have to do more testing.

Yes it is but it's a rant, of course I'm exaggerating a bit xP

There's also the fact that they're completely optional and unnecessary. They provide nothing but cosmetics

I hate this argument, because videogames themselves are completely optional and unnecessary. That's the whole point of them, they're just for entertainment, to have fun and enjoy playing them. So I don't see how something being cosmetic makes any difference.

It's more like we didn't like pay2win on online games, so they started making it "just cosmetic" in those, and somehow now people think it's acceptable to have to pay for parts of a game they bought, in every game ever?

Well, people waste their money on useless crap all the time, so I guess I'll just be the cranky old lady and go back to playing my original AoM, where I'm actually playing a game and not an advertisement.

Searxng! You can self-host it, but I just use a public instance, there are tons you can find out there. You can also install a firefox extension¹ to be able to use it directly as your default search engine :)

¹ you don't need to download an extension, you can just go to a site, right click on the address bar and add it to firefox/librewolf as a custom search engine, as per these instructions.

Google is just a search engine, the sites you find with it may or may not be trustworthy.

...unless you use their AI crap, idk, I haven't used Google for years.

I, for one, welcome our overlords to train their AIs on one of the most left-leaning, anti-corporate and LGBT+ friendly spaces on the internet.

If the revolution the communists talk about ever comes, it'll be with the help of our AI comrades /hj

(I don't want them using us as training data but it's going to happen whether we like it or not)

In Spain, children used to get presents from the "Reyes Magos" (the Three Wise Men) on Jan 6th. Nowadays, they may also (or instead) get presents on Christmas, from Papá Noel (coke Santa Claus).

The problem is that the wealth generated by the robots is going to the owners, not to the workers that lose their jobs, as always. Otherwise it'd be great.

How do you think headline voice actors start? By doing the small roles like wallas, ad libs, waiter2 and such.

If you get rid of the starting voice actors of today, you get rid of the good voice actors of tomorrow.

More like using iOS is not cool. At least in the EU they get some more things, but I was trying the other day to show a workmate how to install an ad blocker and it turns out you can't even install firefox extensions on iOS!

Headless?

I'll never understand how the party of "freedom" can ban whatever they don't like without their voters seeing the irony.

I have it happen a lot when I'm doom scrolling, pretty far down, and open a post (but I don't know if opening a post triggers it or I just notice it more).

I then go back, scroll a bit more, and find the same post I just saw and the ones around it too.

I use the all - top 12 hours filter when it happens.

You're talking like ow2 isn't literally the same game. I paid for ow1 and can't go back to it.

Glad to encounter a nice and reasonable cereal enjoyer such as yourself. May your Reese's Puffs be extra puffy.

Figurative feelings don't care about your literal facts.

So if a deaf person with eardrums is present, does it make a sound?

But then I finish the cereal. Still hungry - some milk in the bowl. I proceed to add more cereal on the milk. Fuck you.

The point is saying games are "not realistic enough" is unproductive criticism, like saying "just fix it".

People like some realism in games. Look at how RDR2 was criticized for how tedious some things were. People liked the horse ball-jiggling physics realism, not the skinning or looting realism, because it slows the gameplay too much.

Still, there will be hardcore people that love realism to the point of controlling each individual joint like Toribash, but it becomes a battle of realism vs accessibility.
