Yeah, I think my mistake was not realize the praise was coming from a much younger demographic. I was really surprised by how little gameplay there is.

Nostupidquestions is for questions you've been hesitant to ask for fear of sounding stupid, my favorite example being "am I supposed to wash a hoodie every time I wear it?"

I don't really think that applies here. Asklemmy is the general questions community

Not really an onion headline, more like Buzzfeed or boredpanda

I don't know whether that's a quote from something or fresh off the dome but that's an absolute banger of a line.

I am not downplaying the psychological effects of obesity but....Willpower is quite literally the ability to overcome your hormones/emotion and resist social pressure. It IS all you need, it's just really hard to learn. Especially nowadays with the societal pressure to be hot and how depressing the world is in general.

Comparing obesity to a cold is a false dichotomy as you most people can't simply avoid asymptomatic carriers. But if you insist on the comparison, we were absolutely vicious to people who got COVID because they chose to not wear masks (and rightfully so). I'm not suggesting we SHOULD be similarly mean to fat people, though.

I want to reiterate I'm not looking down on anyone for having weak willpower, mine is shit when there's a sweet treat in front of me. But I lost 5kg last year just by practicing at the grocery store. If there's junk food in my house, I know I'll pick it over real food every time. So I choose not to buy it.

I played Undertale and was kind of underwhelmed. The fandom would have you thinking it was the greatest game ever made

I really liked this game. I am not a fan of open world but my friend talked me into trying it and it defied my expectations.

Every side quest has "purpose" in filling out the world, I don't think I ran into a single one that felt shoehorned in. And the way the map unlocks is very natural to the story.

Just put it in drop tuning so they can just smack the frets

I guess if you consider silently scrolling through variations on the same dozen jokes over and over a form of exploration...

It's a bit ironic when meme culture cluttered and homogenized the internet

None of these Trump posts are oniony headlines

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Is everyone upvoting this just because it's funny? It doesn't read like an onion headline at all

I got weirdly emotional the other day reading about Yellowstone and thinking about what people must have thought when they stumbled on Old Faithful.

Had they ever seen anything like that? Probably didn't even know what it was. Even if they were a first generation American, it's not like Europe is covered in geysers.

I got kinda sad knowing that every major natural feature on earth has already been discovered. I know that's hyperbolic but...the bottom of the ocean isn't something a normal person will ever see.

I was messing around on Bing trying to generate animals camouflaging into various environments but never spit out what I had in mind. It did, however, expose me to furry porn despite my prompt not requesting it.

Some other examples (not including the aforementioned one because I don't want to get banned lol):

 

Based on two rumors/conspiracy theories:

  1. Walt Disney had his body cryogenically preserved in the hopes of being resurrected later. Unsubstantiated but funny

  2. The film was titled "Frozen" so when you search for "Walt Disney Frozen" you don't learn about the first rumor
