Ashes of the Rug-Pull it looks like. Released on Steam less than 2 months ago. Seems like they just waited long enough so nobody who bought in can refund it.

I think I’d survive. Never had a broken bone or any serious injuries really. I’d just have surface-level wounds everywhere, none with a lot of blood loss, and 2 rolled ankles. It would be unpleasant as hell, but I don’t think my life would be in danger.

They’re design-focused first and foremost. You get a Nothing phone if you want fancy LED-lighting on the backside.

They used to be about having a “minimalist”, bloatware-free Android OS as well, but since last year some of their phones come preloaded with Facebook, Tiktok etc and they even put ads on the lock screen for a while (until backlash made them revert that).

2020s, by far. 2010s were the best, but after 2020, the world order I knew pretty much became undone and everything seems to just be getting worse. I was pretty hopeful and excited for the future before, but now we seem to be on an unrelenting march towards dystopia. Much of the societal progress we’ve made in prior decades is being reverted. Also not great when it came to personal events for me, as my dad died in 2021. I guess the decade still has a few years left to redeem itself, but that seems highly unlikely right now.

“A Hat in Time” is an excellent 3d-platformer with local (split-screen) co-op.

I don’t get it, what’s the problem with deposit boxes? Tons of people here have them to mainly store important documents, like birth certificates etc. Basically stuff you don’t want to lose if your house burns down.

I don’t know if there are currently any automated systems against it, but with Lemmy votes being public, I think that someone would notice it happening sooner or later. If it became a huge problem, automated systems could certainly be developed.

I’m aware that instances can block interaction from other instances, but if done correctly it would be easy to do it without raising much suspicion.

I don’t think it would be. A sudden influx of votes from users from a new instance who never posted or commented would be pretty obvious I’d say.

This, and it’s also a form of deterrence in itself. It means that if the US attacks Greenland, they’ll potentially have to kill not just Danish, but also German, French etc soldiers, permanently fucking up relations with those countries beyond repair.

No, of course not. My point was that this Florida congressman is clueless and probably just doing this to get attention. Trump would never turn Greenland into a state and this bill will go nowhere.

As a state, they would. Of course, Trump would never even consider making them a state and this random congressman didn’t think this through.

Can you be more specific on what reminds you of prisons with your schools? I don’t think any of my schools in Germany looked anything like a prison.

A full new state of 50.000 people who will never vote republican, meaning they’ll effectively cede control of the senate? That would be an… interesting move for sure.

When you wrote of Denmark kidnapping children to cleanse the native culture, I assumed you meant literally that. If you want to talk about child protection measures which apply to all Danish citizens but unfairly disadvantage minorities due to various factors, sure, but then you should be clear about what you mean and maybe not exaggerate to a ridiculous extent.

It’s unlikely that any European country will send troops to war against the US either way. But leaving that aside, an independent Greenland would still be associated and integrated with Europe. Everything else would basically be suicide for the country and it’s also in Europe’s interest to keep Greenland within its sphere.

I would personally be annoyed by such a person and not want to associate with them. I have no issue with religious people, or even talking to them about religion, but if they’re just constantly preaching or trying to convert me, that would get on my nerves very quickly.

Did. Past tense. Last time that happened was around 50 years ago. Well within living memory, but definitely not going on today.

That depends on how independence is handled. Denmark/Europe could still ensure defence of an independent Greenland. As much as they can right now at least…

Looks like you can only participate with a Mastodon account, unless I’m missing something.

I’ve been playing Thief Gold. Great game that really surprised me in how well it holds up. It somewhat runs out of steam in the last third though, where I currently am. Missions like “Escape” have been a bit of a pain with their difficulty and aren’t as well designed. Still intending to finish it and get to Thief 2, supposedly the best in the series.

On Steam, I’ve been playing “Songs of Syx”. An amazing mixture of Dwarf Fortress, a city builder and even a bit of a civilization-building RTS. Really addictive game that’s complex but not overwhelming.
