argo_yamato,

Started playing Minecraft again, some FC 24 and various racing games (GT7 and ACC mostly with some Wreckfest thrown in).

argo_yamato,

Generally I just start playing. If the game keeps my attention and I keep playing at some point all the various character abilities, what is valuable or not and managing items just clicks. And some days I just don’t feel like figuring stuff out so I play games I am familiar with.

argo_yamato,

Some Super Mario Wonder, GT7 and I just started Horizon Forbidden West. Probably those along with my usual FC 24 and MLB The Show. Those last two are great for a quick 15 minute session.

Americans of Lemmy, what is your approach to next year's election?

2020 was… truly unique. It was so hard to stay away from doom scrolling, and I (and many others) were pretty disillusioned by the sad fact that so much of our country legitimately supported the Orange Man. I didn’t get a wink of sleep the night of the election because I genuinely considered it to be a make or break decision...

argo_yamato,

Voting straight Democrat. The republican party is the biggest threat to the US right now.

argo_yamato,

GT7 since some new updates came recently, AC Mirage (keep thinking I will pick it back up it but never do) and Super Mario Wonder

Homer has stopped strangling Bart in The Simpsons and it’s about time (www.theguardian.com)

Nothing lasts forever. In time, the continents will crash into each other once more, the sun will swallow the planet and, at some point long after that, The Simpsons will end. But that isn’t to say that it’s incapable of moving with the times before then. Because, in yet another nod to shifting tastes, Homer Simpson has...

argo_yamato,

I didn’t notice either but I don’t really watch it anymore

argo_yamato,

Haha yeah. I watched through season 25 or so. Still watch the re-runs a lot though.

Did racist use the "biological advantage" argument when Black athletes started competing alongside white athletes?

Given that racists and slavers used the “natural physical strength” of black people to justify putting them on hard labor and some medics still think that blacks has higher resistance to pain, I wonder if when black athletes started to join mixed race sport teams, some racist would have used the same “biological...

argo_yamato,

There was an NFL commentator named Jimmy the Greek who said something like “they are bred to be a better athlete” on air. He was fired shortly thereafter. Can’t remember when it happened though, maybe the mid 1980’s. Not sure if he himself was racist or if he was just saying what popped into his head.

argo_yamato,

Wow even nature.com has an article about how bad twitter has become, did not see that one coming.

argo_yamato,
  • Long (6 ft) USB cords that reach from the floor (where the charger is in a power strip) to my desk or couch
  • A key hook that I mounted by the door. No more setting off the car alarm with the key in my pocket when in my house
argo_yamato,

This. Made a huge difference in the summer for me when working at my desk.

argo_yamato,

Had something like that happen to a local dev database (thankfully). A dev next me blurts out “how to I rollback an update in SQL server”? He was used to Oracle and how easy it is to rollback something. Had to explain that commit just happens in SQL server regardless of whether or not you put that commit line in.

argo_yamato,

That tracks since Republicans are the biggest threat to the USA

argo_yamato,

I made three different accounts but I really didn’t know what instance to use at first. Now I have landed at the only one I use.

argo_yamato,

Not a whole lot. One I used had no down votes and another kept going down. So I just stuck with lemm.ee but alot of the communities I use are on other instances. That is what I didn’t get at first, that you could subscribe to any community on different instances unless they got defederated from your instance.

argo_yamato,

Super Mario World (trying to make it last so playing slowly) and GT7 since some new content was just released

argo_yamato,

Not waiting for anything at the moment. The game is really fun but seems like it is short.

argo_yamato,

That would require US politicians to ignore various lobbies (and their $$$) and focus on consumer protections. Don’t see that happening.

argo_yamato,

Looking good Billy-Ray, feeling good Lewis

argo_yamato,

Getting them to trust X with their entire financial life is another.

Haha good luck with that Elon

argo_yamato,

Never heard of this guy but no one should be surprised by his actions. Seems like folks popular only on social media tend to be very thin skinned and entitled.

This procedure is banned in the US. Why is it a hot topic in fight over Ohio's abortion amendment? (apnews.com)

In ads, debates and public statements, the opposition campaign and top Republicans have increasingly been referencing “partial-birth abortions” as an imminent threat if voters approve the constitutional amendment on Nov. 7. “Partial-birth abortion” is a non-medical term for a procedure known as dilation and extraction,...

argo_yamato,

Because republicans only speak in terms that evoke fear from their voters. Doesn’t matter if what they say is actually true or not, they have no moral compass.

argo_yamato,

Yep and as someone who watches a lot of sports I would love to see those ads banned. Also ban the pre-game odds shows and the in game odds updates.

argo_yamato,

If this is true not sure if anyone should be surprised.

argo_yamato,

I am guessing since they can’t advertise there.

argo_yamato,

GT7 mainly running Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta. There is a race there this weekend and it makes me feel slightly better when I see pro drivers mess up the same corner I do.

argo_yamato,

I might check that one out, haven’t played a Forza game in years. The screenshots I saw had an IMSA GTP car so that might be enough for me to buy it this time around (on PC).

argo_yamato,

I finally thought I had it down and then I forgot where to go to rename a file, just couldn’t find the stupid icon at first

argo_yamato,

And they would be some of the few countries that would actually compete

argo_yamato,

It is Florida though so they will still vote for anti-science candidates and somehow blame immigrants for the smoke.

argo_yamato,

And since the pandemic with people working from home more the whole work/life balance is gone.

argo_yamato,

On the Switch nothing but did start playing the new EA FC game on the PS5. Honestly with MLB season ending / playoffs starting, the NFL in full swing and the EPL not on another break I am probably more focused on watching sports right now.

argo_yamato,

My take from the article is that if the companies are worried about making cars that cost more with higher union wages then maybe they should pay the C-level folks and shareholders less. The workers should be the most important part of the company.

argo_yamato,

Like the song goes “Some of those that work forces, Are the same that burn crosses”
