pokemon lets go. i skipped it on release because i assumed the dumbed down mechanics are not for me as an aduld fan. but once i picked it up i like it a lot. the graphics are breathtakeing for a gamefreak ip. and the way more accessible and time saveing shiny hunting, made me commit to a shiny only run.

I gotta admit i boxed eevee eventhough i love it, because that would just be too op.

but a strong recomendation for the pokemon fan that yawns for a chill experience

i once heard somewhere that rimworld was just supposed to be an example piece of how gamedesign works rather than an actual game. and it had such good game design it grew a huge comunity :D

No source, dont remember where i got that

its kinda crazy isnt it? i would never tell irl i played it lol. but as a person who was in the rpg maker scene of the 2000/2010 years, it feels like the pinacle of this era and comunity. its not the best game but feels like the most iconic by haveing every standard and every stereotype of rpg maker games turned to 12. Perhabs there is potential to write a paper about how and why it was developed.

i failed out of uni so take my advice with a huge grain of salt. but its ok to fail or rescedule. as long as you persist ofc. I failed some class and the shame made me fail more. reality is pretty much everyone has parts of their studys that are boring or incredible hard. and pretty mich everyone fails some stuff. Just make a plan, figure out what made you fail last time (if it happends) and try to prevent that next time.

tl;dr: dont be like me. be open and honest to your friends, professors and family. and you will make it :)

what a non answer. imagin someone asks for directions, and all they get as an answer is “traveling isnt just beeing good at walking. you need to do the work and find the way”

I mean i totally agree with your observation, but op asked for tips. they are probably a younger person asking more experienced people how to start into life.

Wrked in a bakery with a café part to sit at. the store was in the same building as a convinence store. Every now and then a middle aged woman with smeared make up (think simpsons make up shotgun) went to the convience store the came to us, to first use the toilett and the sit down and “drink” a coffee. at least that is her story. as a worker we all knew that she never drank the coffee, but instead drank those mini alkohol bottles in the toilett ( as if we didnt see the bottles in the trash). she usually gets punch drunk till closing time. but we let her since she obviously felt ashamed about drinking, and seemed to have a hard life as is. but as she got comfortable with the workers, because we were nice to her, she started to belive/act as if she worked there too when drunk. repositioning all the tables and chairs. takeing the toilett keys home and never return them, try to make us hang out inside the store after closing. and if you ever tried to reason with a drunk person you know there is no way. after we needed to call the police the second time just to able to end out shift, and close down, she got banned.

in a way i feel sorry for her, since she was never seen in the store again. these people make me want to be able to help. but i am not able and i get paid minimum wage to keep up with it :/

i think the reson behind that has little to do with the music. idk how it is now but a few years ago the band had baddd infighting and made it all public. i am talking up to the level of dissolving the band on stage, just to continue for the revenue the next day. I assume many of the ffdp haters were fans of the music back then, but got dissapointed by the musicans to the point they couldnt enjoy it anymore.

Remember if someone hates a thing, its likely they still care about it.

all those kinds of imparements are puns. like haveing a lisp. or to stutter. all speech and reading imparements are words that are hard to pronounce or read by the people affected. no idea why. just saying its the rule and no exception.

are you sure that is grounded in reality rather than emotions? I dont call you a liar since i have zero knowledge how it works in usa. i just had the same feeling that speed cameras are a cash grab. but then i saw the process how a speed camera is decided upon. and in my cuntry they literally only stand ar places with a higher crash density. these areas also have slower speed limits which can feel annoying. but it is stastlcally proven that injuris and crashed were significantly reduced. see this process and understanding it chenged my views on that entirely.

there are offices that offer these services offline. if you wanna do it on your own youll need to request a lot of acces to city archives. At least in some countrys, citys keep many infos. including if someone moves there ect.

So if you know where your grandparents used to be born, go there, and maybe you find infos about your grand grandparents. and then its just a game to hunt for infos. See if you can find your anchestors names in unis, or companys or something.

I heard its quite tedious and takes years

This post was already posted here exactly two weeks ago already by the very same account. Just annoys me to see this bot like activity already on lemmy.

Can’t we leave reposts to reddit?

its actually a real rabit hole to see which cultures use however many days to refer into the future and past. Since the use of unified calenders its been declining. few centuries ago it wasnt unusual to have words for like “five days ago”. and some languages actually perserved that!

Dont ask me for specifics tho. its been many moons since i did that deep dive ^^

i do not get that from the resources provided here and havent heard about that either… the ip adress ect. is shared with authorities only, which i personaly dont disagree with per se. maybe i was unclear i my first coment about that tho.

If you got info about telegram sharing that info with private institutions, and are willing to share, id love to read that. that would make me deinstall the app rather quickly ^^

as a hige indi/small developer fan i see great times ahad. AAA will fail, clmpanys will close and developers will find new homes in smaller teams. by 2030 i predict a golden age for AA and and perhabs also a new golden age for indi.

ok this feels like a real hot take. but i am somewhat glad about this. in my country telegram has the reputation to be the nazi (and sometimes the pedo-) app. so i am not unhappy those people online activity can be used against them in court. That beeing said i can respect people who feel otherwise.

ereyesterday is the day before yesterday. as a german i am used to refer to two days in the past and future without useing weekdays.

its sad isnt it? I objectively really like the music still. but cant enjoy it anymore because it reminds me that such trash people exist and have power :(

i am unsure what you mean about not interfaceing with apple? I heard in america imessage is a big thing that prevents that, but the rest of the world doesnt really use it. and besides there are many messangers that let you interface.

also i mean the burden to move. the burdon to leave the alphabet system is just as hard as the apple system imo. its just annoying both dont make it easy for any cross useage.

Edit: just wanna make clear i am not an apple apologist. i heavily prefer open source alternatives and use them whereever i can. i just dont get how people act as if andeoid/google/ect. are better or even good alternatives.

no you got a point. i think your listed problems are the main problems you can have. with the hefty price and the “elite” vibe they sell in ads and so on, its really easy to hate. hateing apple feels like punching up.

and (most) android users dont realise that instead of beeing in apples eco system they are “trapped” in googles. I apprechiate apple for them not just blatently selling personal data, recorded from my phone. I also think in terms of polish there is no competiton. whoever used both, iphone and android phone, cant deny that ios is just far more polished. everything just works.

I personally dont like the apple proprietary ecosystem, but with no really good open source phone os, they are the best alternative on the marked atm. i dont know about laptops.
