    The fact that we have gotten this confused is all the evidence I need to change how this works.

    Simplest solution is to change the layout from:

    1. Profile
    2. Attachments /screenshots / replies
    3. Text

    To

    What’s everyone’s take on mewing?

    It seems to make sense to me.

    I’ve seen others say it’s bullshit.

    I started doing it periodically a few weeks ago, and I just had an oral bone spur break through my gums from a tooth extraction I had over ten years ago.

    So it makes me think the mewing changed something in my lower jaw enough for some fragments of bone to come loose and make their way out.


  • It’s interesting to me to think about the optics of posting memes like this.

    On one hand, it’s funny, and 99% of the Lemmy community would vote for him over Trump.

    On the other, if it was posted anywhere else I would be worried about the implication of scoring an own-goal.

    I’m scared the election will be a close call, I really don’t know how good of an idea it is to clown on Biden (even though, as aforementioned, it’s funny, and shouldn’t convince anyone to vote for Trump).





  • One of the problems Epic has is that it is only a store front. Steam is a fully featured platform.

    Epic, in their lawsuit, wants to break Steam’s store and platform into separate applications, so they can compete.

    Sort of like how people want to have different app stores on their iphones.

    Difference is: Steam has no restrictions in the first place. You can add non-Steam games to the client if you want. You can use Proton if you want.

    Steam offers all of these features for free. What is the point in breaking them apart.






  • Games are art. I have full respect for an artist who does not compromise their vision for someone who refuses to engage with the art, on the artists terms.

    A lot of people played The Witcher 3 and thought the combat was boring, but never spent time preparing for battle by considering which oils and potions to use - because they didn’t need to. They were playing on easy or normal.

    These people robbed themselves of the experience of immersing themselves in the role of a Witcher, and turned each encounter into a button masher.

    Imagine being a developer and seeing people shit on your game for ‘unengaging combat’.

    Now, sure, you can make the argument that that’s just one element of The Witcher 3, and some people are playing for the story - and fair enough.

    But there isn’t anything analogous in the Souls franchise. The gameplay IS bashing your head against a wall for ten hours. You don’t get to just turn down the difficulty, breeze through every boss on the first try, and claim the game is boring.
