I have a surprising number of games which I play with BGM at 1%. That is nuts! Why should any game be designed roughly 100x too loud!?
If memory serves, Age of Empires 3 DE is this way last I tried to play and chat on Discord. Earth Defence Force 4, and all of the new Counter Strikes are similar. It’s a war on eardrums!
Strangely topical for me. I wasted yesterday telling myself I was smart enough to make SwayWM on Wayland work well with my 1070. Should have trusted the warnings in the documentation; hubris cost me a weekend day!
Mine is people who separate words when they write. I’m Norwegian, and we can string together words indefinetly to make a new word. The never ending word may not make any sense, but it is gramatically correct...
Problem: ambiguity of date terms like saying “this Wednesday” on a Thursday. Is the speaker referring to yesterday or the coming Wednesday six days from now? Not always clear.
Solution: I propose standardising our understanding of the week as beginning Monday, ending Sunday. At any point in the current week, “this whateverday” refers to that day in the current week, no matter if it’s past or future. “Next whateverday” refers to that day in the upcoming Monday through Sunday week.
“This Wednesday”, on a Thursday, is referring to yesterday.
“Next Wednesday”, on a Thursday, is referring to a day six days from now.
(I also suggest adopting ISO 8601, writing dates in year-month-day order to avoid that ugly ambiguity.)
ToonStruck, remastered, or the shelved sequel ressurected. I’d like Burst to (exist again and) handle the development because they did a fantastic job the first time around!
What's a button you hate tapping or clicking accidentally?
For me, it’s “Clear Storage”. Sometimes I try to clear the cache of some mobile game I’m playing and end up deleting all my progress instead.
And thus my subtitle requirement was born (lemmy.world)
Don't think my phone runs Nvidia... or Wayland 🤔 (sh.itjust.works)

If you could have any game remade by a studio of your choice, who would you want working on what?
For example, I’d take We Happy Few and put it into the hands of either Remedy (of Alan Wake & Control fame) or IO Interactive (of Hitman series fame).
