Games@lemmy.world•Why is gaming becoming so expensive? The answer is found in AIEnglish
3·12 days agoSorry, I was just answering your question and honestly didn’t mean it to sound agressive. English isn’t my native language so apologies if that came across as mean spirited, that wasn’t my intention

60·12 days agoYes, it’s a mainstream center-left newspaper in the UK, definitely not fringe or a tabloid
I think a big part of his story is that his mother wasn’t fucked actually
Can you grab a couple for me as well while you’re in the caveat store?

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Basically, they’re asking their users to help train their AI
21·30 days agoYoutube is honestly driving me nuts with its automatic titles translation. If I’m going to watch an hour-long video essay in english, I’m also capable of reading a two-word title in the same language, thank you very much. It feels kind of insulting to be honest

Gaming@lemmy.zip•Yes, Paradox are aware that a “barrage of DLCs” can scare away new players, for all their bundles and discountsEnglish
15·3 months agoThe issue to me is that the discounts aren’t even that interesting. I would love to get back into CK3 to see how it evolved since launch, but even during a big sale buying a few of the most impactful DLCs would cost me as much as a brand new game.
That’s interesting. Do you manage to land those hits consistently once the element of surprise is gone? I also practice historical fencing (but I mostly do arming sword and langes messer, though I’ve occasionally dabbled with rapier), and my experience has been that taller people usually have the reach advantage.
Ducking and thrusting straight ahead of you makes basic geometry work in your favour for compensating the reach disadvantage (your arm has a 90° angle giving you maximum range), but it also massively exposes your head of your first hit doesn’t land, and prevents you from using footwork for a few seconds. Once your opponent’s has figured out your strategy it would seem like he would just have to stay a bit out of reach and counter-attack/riposte while you recover from your ducking
I would hoard hobbyist supplies and then never use them
I love how overexplained this wrong answer is
They’re both inside me at the same time?
Or at least he would have made it less convenient to touch with your hands, like placing it in the middle of your back or something

HistoryPhotos@piefed.social•Activists (presumably pro-DRV) wearing masks to hide their identities in case of capture and interrogation, Vietnam, 1972
6·3 months agoWearing masks to hide their identities in case of capture? Am I missing something or is there a reason why their captors wouldn’t just remove their masks?
Edit : I’m dumb. It’s to protect EACH OTHER’s identities in case one of them is captured. My bad










Are force ghosts supposed to be in Jedi heaven? I always thought they were just Jedi powerful enough to retain their consciousness after being returned to the force in their death
