calabast@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Could a vampire policemen enter my house if they had a warrant?42·14 days agoCould vampires be turned down for the position because they physically are not able to carry out the job? Or would that be supernatural discrimination?
If you’re like me, when you were in high school, wasn’t it really important what grade someone was in? Like you’re a junior, you’re not going to hang out with some FRESHMAN, right?
But then, when you got to college, there was this sudden shift, and now it doesn’t really matter what year someone is in? I remember that feeling, like “oh, we’re all just college students, who cares if I started a year before someone else.”
If you can relate to that experience, feeling that shift of “oh, turns out that didn’t really matter” then I promise you have another one coming soon, when you get out of college and get a job and go “oh, who cares when someone graduated college, even if they started at the same time. We’re all just doing our thing now.”
How about if valve has an agreement with developers where if they release a game in early access, and then abandon it, it switches to free-to-play?
Developers don’t have to pay for the servers, and the source code isn’t released. Gamers get to still play it, if it had any redeeming qualities, or for nostalgia. And valve gets…uhh… community goodwill? Honestly the lack of benefits for valve is probably why this will never happen.

I definitely agree that rent should be much more controlled and affordable. And yeah banks definitely don’t need more money. But a majority of Americans have fixed mortgage rates under 4%, which makes a lot of them keep their old house when they move, and just rent it out. Which just makes it harder for people to break into the housing market. And houses are an investment that renters don’t have access to, and that’s just one of tons of things that keeps poor people poor.
100% agree. It’s crazy that we have 30 year fixed rate loans with basically no penalty to refinance. Don’t get me wrong, it’s working for me, but I wish it was different because it’s so unfair.
Also, it’s bespoke. That should add another zero.
I’m not crying, someone’s cutting garlic.
calabast@lemm.eeto Gaming@lemmy.ml•What are the most underrated games released since 2020?2·8 months agoI second Cobalt Core, haven’t tried the other two yet. But CC is a lot of fun, I agree it has an FTL feel, but if I had to compare it to another game I’d say it’s closer to deck building rogue likes, like Slay the Spire and Monster Train.

calabast@lemm.eeto Gaming@lemmy.ml•What are the most underrated games released since 2020?11·8 months agoI really enjoyed Tunic, but I didn’t hear about it until recently I saw someone mention it, even though it came out in 2022.
It’s heavily zelda-inspired in the overworld and kinds of items you find, but the combat has rolling too, so a little more fluid than older zelda games. The best part though is you start off not knowing basically anything about how to play/what the controls are/what the heck is going on, and as you explore you find scattered pages from the old-school style instruction booklet. As you reassemble it, it reveals tips and things you might have overlooked. It was just a ton of fun exploring and learning and overcoming.
calabast@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I have 100 chokers, What is the best way to store them?17·8 months agoYou could hammer 100 little tack/nails into a board and hang them vertically. They’d be a lot longer vertically then they are wide, so you could do like 25 across x 4 down. You could maybe even still keep the plastic sleeves on them.
Or find a big donut shaped pillow, with the same diameter as a neck, and put all them on it?
You are a person.
I am a different person.
We are not the same.
I weigh 175lbs naked, but you really can’t trust those grocery store scales.

Totally, I was at the beach, and this guy walked up…well, I say “walked” but he didn’t really use his legs all the way. And as she, wait did I say it was a guy?, well anyways they turned the thing on and it was SO LOUD and I swear, all the waiters dropped their watchamacallits. Wait, maybe it was at a restaurant? Hmmm…
