I would totally use a retro style beige case for my next build...

 
 
 
 

(Not that it requires a justification either way. It's a personal choice.)

I saw someone share a photo of this and assumed it was photoshop!

This is why federated social media is important.

This is current problem in society that we don't tolerate different opinion.

Exactly this. When online platforms become too homogeneous, any deviation from the typical opinions that are shared seems like a terrible, inexcusable offense that someone must do something about - thus, reinforcing the bubble.

We need to be able to disagree with each other and still get along.

Since most people are talking about the sign-up barriers, I'll mention culture and reputation.

I love Lemmy and Mastodon, but whenever I've seen the fediverse brought up elsewhere, someone inevitably shuts down any curiosity by suggesting that it's a political echo-chamber. I don't think that's accurate for all of it, but if that reputation is out there, we probably need to make an effort to show that there's a broader appeal. If the average person is expecting the fediverse to be the left-wing equivalent of something like "Truth Social", I could understand the reluctance to adopt it.

Why are there so many weird fraud stories like this out of China?

Reminded me of this fake waterfall story from earlier this year.

This would probably escalate a lot of arguments that break out in comment sections.

It has to be through your friends list, and I would absolutely invite if my steam account wasn't (unfortunately) identifiable to me. I feel uncomfortable putting that out to Lemmy. Sorry!

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I would invite all of y'all that I could, but I don't feel comfortable putting my steam name out there on lemmy for privacy reasons. Sorry =(

I just logged in to try, but apparently you can't send invites with an email. =(

The upgrades do seem pretty straightforward as far as wording, but I didn't fully understand how some of the "spirit" ones worked, so I might look it up elsewhere before I play again. I just bought the "recommended" items, but I also kept getting demolished, so maybe I need to branch out.

I played this too. It's fun, although I'm terrible at MOBAs.
