I got an analogue watch instead of the cool futuristic digital watch I wanted, so I cried. After reading the rest of the responses I feel very very fortunate

Probably a sea turtle. Was snorkelling in Malaysia, completely obsessed with the coral and all of the fishes, when this massive turtle just cruises by. Held my breath for as long as I could to swim next to it, not too close but just wanting to be in its presence, it was so calm and majestic as it headed out into the deeper ocean

Also playing this on PC currently. It's good fun, but I feel like it is far less polished than the first. Sometimes completely janky.

Performance is pretty much fine, with some stuttering here and there that nothing will fix. But not a huge deal.

Here's a tip though: always save at a meditation point before quitting. There are a few auto-saving checkpoints around story beats, but reloading these can cause issues - I recently got completely stuck by relying on one.

Basically, there's a moment where you can force pull a door open, but then end up going a different way and acquiring a new ability. Then you come back through the now open door. I had to quit the game after getting this ability, and on reload, the door was closed. Nothing I could do to open it from this side, and no way back up and out in the opposite direction.

I tried everything, and if I was on console I think I would have been completely screwed, at almost exactly halfway through the game. I had to download a mod to get to a debug menu where I could expose and load a previous 'backup' save. No idea why they don't just expose a couple of these saves in the 'load game' menu....

Holy shit I hadn't clicked yet and hoped you were joking. I'm sure they mean well but I find that really disturbing, what a weird use of emoji...

He makes $210,000 per year..?? I'm not saying important and dangerous jobs like this shouldn't be well compensated, I'm just very surprised that it IS this well compensated

If you have the option, I would suggest going to a Dr before assuming anything is the only plausible explanation.

Personally, I found out about my neck / posture issues (even though outwardly I have decent looking posture so I never assumed it would be that), got some excercises from a physio and a completely different pillow, and that combo drastically reduced my headaches

It gets worse the more I read the article... This guy spent a few weeks in blackface, thinks that he 'became a black man'. Then goes on to conclude that while it might be harder to thumb a ride as a person of colour, systemic racism is completely over?? We did it folks!

Not quite what you're asking, but I once fell asleep on a long haul flight listening to a Cinematic Orchestra album with some very comfy headphones.

I woke up to a little filler / ambient track that is mostly silence with a ship's fog horn blown a few times... The cabin was dark, most people were asleep or quietly watching movies, and my half asleep brain forgot I was wearing headphones. I went from confused to creeping panic about what this horn meant and why no on else was reacting to it until I finally woke up properly

If every sneeze was a brain damage dice roll, I bet we'd see this kind of post about sneezing indeed

While it's cool to show concern for someone who might need to hear some words of encouragement for getting help (well, minus the scare tactics of a dead relative story), you seem to have conflated this poster's description of the 'pattern' a night out drinking can take with a 'pattern' of problem drinking every day, or far too often at least.

What they described is perfectly familiar to me, someone who drank to a level of bad hangover on occasion when I was young and having dumb fun with friends. As I got older, that type of fun got less important and the amount I drink came down to a drink or two, rarely, when I can afford a nice whisky or something.

Basically, someone recognising how a night of social drinking can turn into a hangover isn't necessarily the cry for help you seem to have read it as

Warning - there are no spoilers in my question, but there will probably be gameplay mechanics spoilers in any answers (hopefully).

I'm downloading Lies of P now to give it a shot. I'm not a big fan of RPG elements in these types of games (blasphemy I know), I prefer a focused experience; for example I liked Bloodbourne but never finished it because of all of the options, but I absolutely loved every minute of Sekiro. Basically I can't be bothered with experimenting with builds and crunching numbers, it's not for me.

I know any actual advice will depend on what I want the gameplay to feel like, so I guess all I can say is take Sekiro as an example - I'd probably be focusing on anything that will help speed and parrying (if any stats affect that?) and decent dodging.

So, do you have any advice on things I should focus on, things I should avoid or wait to upgrade, weapons to aim for etc? I don't mind spoilers.

You're not sure if murder is worse than being embarrassing and cringe for a moment?

Firstly, being on the autism spectrum (not saying he is or isn't) doesn't give you the right to be an asshole, and I'm sure many people who are on it and aren't assholes will tell you that this take is insulting.

Secondly, when you say there is nothing major on there, you have to keep in mind his level of reach and influence. If your neighbour says "this new Covid thing is going to just blow over, there'll be no cases soon'", you can say "OK buddy, hope you're right but it's not looking likely". When Musk says it, he directly contributes massively to the misinformation that has killed a lot of people and changed the whole damn world for the worse

I'm new to Lemmy, and found lemmy.ml to be where I want my accounts. I created this one, which got approved very quickly. I then created a second one, because I'd like this one to be more anonymous and the second one to match my username on Twitch (and my real name is easily found there).

The second account seems to have not been approved, I'm not sure how to tell but it's been hours (and this account was approved in minutes). Could have been because I tried to use the same email address, is that supported?

Whatever reason it was, does this mean that username is gone and no longer available? Is there any way for me to try again?

EDIT: Never mind, of course the moment I create this post, I check again and the signup has been approved. I swear I was being patient!
