Ancient Roman satirical poet Juvenal wrote that all people care about are “bread and circuses” over 2,000 years ago and it still applies.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•The worst thing about Linux is its users
27·8 months agoI think it mostly comes down to baby duck syndrome. People don’t like using a package manager for programs on their desktop but are fine using an app store on their phone (which might literally be running linux). People simply expect a desktop computer to work a specific way and when things are in different spots and called different things they get upset. I think it’s changing as more companies bake Linux into their product.
Steam Decks running Linux changes people’s impression of it. If a mainstream company sold desktop computers that came with Linux preinstalled I’m sure its use would skyrocket. It’s not that it’s impossible for the average user to understand, It’s that it’s not the default option.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could one legally get a hold of those bank bill dye security dye packs, dye your own legally obtained cash with it, and spend it places? Just to make people suspect you're secretly a bank robber.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are the UK and China Authoritarian?
820·8 months agoThe UK has multiple political parties and free democratic elections. Just because the current government passed a law you don’t agree with doesn’t mean the country is authoritarian.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Almost a week here in lemmy and I still don't know how instances work?
31·8 months agoYour account is on lemmy.world. You can see the other instances that lemmy.world federates with and which ones it blocks by going to https://lemmy.world/instances. You will be able to see any content posted to lemmy.world as well as any instances in the “linked instances” list. You won’t be able to see content from the “blocked instances” list. Most instances get blocked for being the source of spam or trolls.
You’d only need to make an account on another instance if you want to participate in communities that are on instances that lemmy.world blocks.

Games@lemmy.world•Petition to tell MasterCard, Visa, and activist groups to stop censoring legal fictional contentEnglish
351·8 months agoThe only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. People fought wars to end monarchy, slavery, fascism. Wanting to be left alone isn’t the mark of a good person. Good deeds are what make a good person. It is your actions, not your beliefs, that make you a good person.
You don’t need to bombard people with your ideas. You need to stand up for them.

791·8 months agoI find it hilarious that the reason these payment companies requested sites pull their NSFW content was due to direct action by a puritanical activist group but people upset by it not only don’t care enough to participate in direct action themselves but won’t even put their real name on a petition.

Say what you want about right wing nut jobs, but they at least care enough about their ideas that they go out and make a difference.

4·8 months agoI’m the only one in my friend group that watches anime and it led to them making lots of pedo jokes at my expense. I’m not a pedo and my friends know that. It’s just a running joke. And then they make a joke when someone new is around and everyone needs to explain I’m not actually a pedo…

Metal Gear Solid 3, Subnautica, Papers Please.
I love the Metal Gear series but the Cold War setting of 3 works so well with the theme of the game. It also features crab battles and the ladder boss.
Subnautica really captures the feeling of being lost in some alien world and slowly making it your new home. The electronic voice assistant manages to send chills up your spine with lines like “oxygen.”
Papers, Please explores complex moral decisions in such a simple way. I wish to live my life more like Jorji.
