Josh from GMM says “Hi.”

Heh, it’s probably on me. I was just test driving it. I have no doubt I could have figured it out if I had spent more time.

It was just the HDMI audio from a standard Intel 14th gen processor. Didn’t feel it was anything too out of the ordinary, but have tried about 6 releases over 3 distros and not a one has worked.

Well, if you’re looking for an actual answer… I couldn’t get audio working on Linux on my laptop. I had to switch back in order to watch movies.

Oh I obviously understand that there are multiple (if not dozens of) maps, but how many times are you expected to play those maps over and over again? Without plot progression, I just don’t find it interesting.

I don’t play multiplayer games anymore.

First off, they always seem to enable the worst of game companies trying to financially ruin their players.

Second off, I’m in my 40s and my reaction time isn’t what it was when I used to play UT or Quake. You can’t improve an aged reaction time nearly as easily, yes, because it’s gotten slightly worse with age, but also because you become less willing and / or able to dedicate the sheer volume of time that you would need to to improve. Getting repeatedly stomped isn’t fun, and quite simply, I’ve got better and more important things to do.

Third off, I don’t like the constant recycling of content that you see in multiplayer games. A handful of maps are expected to last you infinite plays. I like changes of scenery, storylines, and varied experiences. Doing the same thing over and over again is just boring.

Fourth off, player communities in some games are aggressively dogshit and I really don’t want to interact with them at all.

Economist here. This is pretty much the anti-intellectualism that everyone here is talking about and this is the opinion I’ve seen constantly on Lemmy.

Most people have no idea what it is that I do and think it’s something to do with making billionaires more money. It isn’t and it never has been and it hasn’t been for anyone that I’ve kept in contact with from any of my classes.

You don’t have to be involved in financial matters to be an economist either. We’re more involved in finding out root causes and impacts in certain fields.

I hear the renter is obsessed with tacky gold bullshit as well.

Just make their middle name Duck and you are golden.

Because they paid an absurd amount of money for the IP and signed all the actors to multi-season long contracts.

Basically they’ve already paid for most of it.

I’d argue the original Evil Dead trilogy get progressively better with each movie.

I assume it was an accident? Dunno for sure. Lemmy can be touchy at times.

What is the smell if you don’t mind me asking?

That one person would be me and pretty much always.

Huh. This isn’t the first study I have seen with this conclusion. I can see why it would piss off Lemmy immediately, but beyond that knee-jerk reaction, can anyone actually poke any holes in it? It doesn’t seem to be politically motivated and looks sound from what I can parse.

Money laundering by insiders is what’s happening. Doesn’t seem super complex.

Yes, but not one made by Apple.

I don’t get it.

… Attract? Like on purpose?

That’s just the ones on TV.

I’m an economist and many of us don’t have much to do with currency economies and could be better described as “find the root cause experts.”

Hell, I use my skills in the IT field.

It used to mean being constipated which is why this meme confused me. Apparently now it has something to do with having a boner for some reason?
