Dude, this is Shepard for me. I didn’t even think about playing as a male Shepard mainly because he looks like a giant douche. Like, the standard white guy. No front to anyone enjoying a male Shepard, but not really for me. Her performance is stellar indeed, though

I am vegan (pull out the pitchforks) and am pretty vocal about it on here and used to be on the other website. I wouldn’t say I’m an activist per se, but every comment and post I make about the subject whenever it’s brought up makes me feel like I’m making a difference. If the comment resonates with someone reading and leads to fewer animals and animal-derived products being consumed, I’m happy. So yea, for sure.

Same goes for the two communities I created and mod (c/sekiro and c/bloodborne if anyone’s curious). A bot has recently helped me fill the communities with content since engagement isn’t super high from community members themselves. Before the bot, I tried to make daily posts in both communities, thinking it’s content that I enjoy so others would likely too. Since they’re still quite niche and don’t have a massive following, I think it’s definitely a good start for people interested in the games

Cool post btw. I think it’s easy to lose oneself in the daily monotomy that is life and work and stuff, so reminding oneself that participating in communities such as Lemmy is making a difference in one shape or form

The thing is, when people try to argue that “killing” plants is also killing so I might as well just eat animals, apart from being an insane take as is imho, significantly fewer plants are harvested if you switch to a fully vegan diet. The net result is a lot fewer plants needed to sustain people vs. the oodles and oodles of plants and grains needed to feed cattle, pigs, whatever. There are these charts that show how much more efficient food intake really is if you cut out the middle-man - being animals - and just eat the plants they’d be fed instead.

People just try to discredit vegan whenever they can because of their own insecurities and cognitive dissonance. People who actively oppose veganism, that is

I’m wondering how many years it’ll take for this sample to be up there with all the other classic samples of jungle and dnb

Super controversial too, in case you didn’t know

I think they a word

People devalue animals as a whole outside of those that have been accepted by society to be sociable, likable - pets, basically - and only see them as a commodity. They don’t see the animal that dies for their consumption, the suffering they endure, and don’t think about just how many animals die for food. Comparing these mass murders across the globe to the Holocaust might be a little controversial, but I don’t see any other way people realise the sheer absurdity of animal AG.

Thanks for the insight. I tried my hands at Kubuntu on an old laptop of mine and didn’t mind the few differences too much. From what I’ve heard on Lemmy, Mint seems to be a good all-around suggestion for new Linux users, though

Guys, I’ll switch in a heartbeat to a Linux OS if any one you can recommend a stable OS that works on a Surface Go 2. It should support its touchscreen, of course, and a Surface Pen. Plus, a FOSS alternative to Journal would be stellar

Mortal Draw jump attack is stupid strong, for anyone reading. You could theoretically also watch out for specific cues in his movements to endlessly stagger him and get to phase 2, but a few Mortal Draws and parrying are usually enough.

In phase 2, you can use the spear prosthetic to pull the centipede out of the monkey’s body temporarily for huge damage

Magnificent

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

aaaaauuuuwwww

Next to John Dark Souls and John Sekiro, of course

On a recent playthrough, the only way for me to get past those two was to do something similar. Instead of hanging from a ledge, I instead aggroed him with a whistle and hid in a remote corner of the area as to not be seen, and then backstabbed him when he turned his back to me to walk away

Bloodborne 2: 120 FPS patch probably

Need a ride?

Climb on back, and we’ll be off.

Took me way too long to get this

I wonder if he was vegan

The thing is, both c/Sekiro as well as c/Bloodborne are super small communities compared to the rest of Lemmy. If I don’t post anything, nobody else does. I’d rather a bot repost reddit posts as to have any sort of engagement in the form of upvotes and occasional comments instead of no engagement at all. If there is enough of a steady stream of posts by community members, I can switch off the bot and let the community do its own thing. Until then, I don’t see any other way.

Furthermore, I imagine there are a lot of people reading these posts who have not played the games as much as we have. Every bit of value you can generate by commenting with tips and advice is here to stay and will surely help out people here and there. After all, we want to have a sustainable alternative to the other website’s community.

Just imagine
