That’s not my experience, and I’m an elder millennial. The only time tiering up has encouraged me to quit a game was when the higher ranked players were just more toxic. Being challenged can be part of the fun.
That’s not to say I think matchmaking is simply better than persistent servers. Having a group of regulars and developing a bit of a server culture is good fun. I guess I like both options depending on the mood.
Linux is a great server OS. It’s an okay desktop OS.
“Big” is not a negative adjective. “Truck” is not (mostly) an identity or demographic group. You’d have to make up some term like maybe “murder trucks” to get close to an analogy. Would you not suppose that someone who advocated against “murder trucks” thought trucks were bad?
“Crowded” - maybe mildly negative. “Places” - not an identity or demographic.
“Toxic” - Ok. “People” - This hardly seems like an identity or demographic. Maybe if martians start talking about “toxic humans” we’d have an analogy.
And that whole last paragraph is just a straw man.
Let’s consider some real analogies.
“Poisonous Hinduism” “Virulent Femininity” “Malignant Jewishness” “Destructive Liberalism” “Pestilent Blackness” “Dangerous Queerness”
I literally just looked up synonyms for toxic and picked random identity groups. Could you imagine trying to make any of these phrases academic terms?
Seems like this has been in the works for a while https://stateline.org/2024/04/04/after-a-long-slog-climate-change-lawsuits-will-finally-put-big-oil-on-trial/
Trump was elected.
I was flying home with a snow globe souvenir one day. TSA had to huddle with their team and a calculator to figure out the volume of a sphere on the spot. I don’t know if the volume ended up being under the limit or they just gave up.
Definitely a crepe
Doomerism is a vibe. You’re gonna have a hard time talking people down around these parts.
I think they meant like 1970, not 1870.
A truly poor analogy. LLMs don’t remove anything from anywhere. They consume no shared resource.
It’s been wild watching people flail about searching for arguments for why LLMs should be stopped. I’m not even saying they shouldn’t, just that I haven’t seen a solid argument for it.
It’s hilarious how many different definitions of fascism I see on Lemmy on a given day
Oh good, a petition.
Okay Lemmy, I wanna know if this is just a me thing or if anyone else has this experience.
Like the meme I don’t generally remember my dreams for long after being awake. But! As I’m drifting off to sleep I start remembering things that feel like my previous dreams. Sometimes they seem to be dreams I had years ago.
Anyone else? Do you suppose I’m actually remembering recent or old dreams, or is this some kind of deja vu thing? Is there some separate memory space where all my dream memories are kept?
