  • The Bridgelands by Chris Bradley

  • Daaamn. The lighting and thick atmosphere in this picture are sublime. I want to go there.

  • What android client do you use?

    Jump

  • I've tried them all, and as of right now Connect feels the most polished and feature rich. So that's my recommendation.

  • Soon 80000 active per day. Help by inviting friends to lemmy :)

  • Another hot tip: don't refer to people as "normies."

  • Why do i "fear" nostalgic,old,familiar things?

    Jump

  • Nostalgia is really interesting in that it's inherently bittersweet. It's nice because it grounds us in a shared timeline and focuses on mostly positive aspects of some past point in time, but it's also sad because it means thinking back fondly on a time that will never be again.

    So maybe it's the bitter half of that bittersweet feeling that you're subconsciously averse to? Either that or maybe your past/childhood was mostly negative or even traumatic? I'm no psychologist, so really I don't know what I'm talking about.

  • Dead Malls - A place for photos, videos, and discussions related to dead or dying malls.

    Jump

  • An empire that we lived in and got to experience when it was thriving. That's why dead malls in particular have a distinctly bittersweet feeling to them. Those of us who frequented malls in the 80's and 90's can vividly remember when they were filled with people, commerce, and social activity. They were such lively social spaces back then, so seeing them slowly succumb to the ravages of time and fade into irrelevancy is both sad and fascinating.

  • Nah. It's morbidly interesting IMO.

  • Me browsing Lemmy instead of Reddit

    Jump

  • We're so fucking cool, aren't we?

  • Biomedical CEO believes it’ll soon be possible for same-sex couples to share biological children

    Jump

  • Phew.

  • Biomedical CEO believes it’ll soon be possible for same-sex couples to share biological children

    Jump

  • Lol. I read this in an entirely different context, like you were implying that they'd go to hell for this.

  • First Pirate Bay Server

    Jump

  • That's really cool that someone thought to preserve this and put it on display in a museum. It's like a modern historical artifact from the golden age of computing.

  • Which meaningful and memorable quotes contained in a videogame can you recall?

    Jump

  • "Shouldn't we wait for reinforcements?"

    "I am the reinforcements."

    • Vagrant Story, PS1

  • If Lemmy is going to come up with their own version of Reddit's AMA, what are you going to call it?

    Jump

  • We're done here. That's the one.

  • There's a person who is spam creating hundreds of communites with impossibly long descriptions on world, why haven't they been banned yet?

    Jump

  • Jeez. What a pathetic loser.

  • I'll be keeping an eye on this thread because I would also love to know if I'm missing out on some good games journalism out there. Sadly, sites like what you've described are increasingly rare in the modern era. Nevertheless, here are a few that come to mind:

    NintendoLife is pretty great for this if you're looking for Nintendo-related news, reviews, interviews, and feature articles.

    One of their affiliate sites, Time Extension, is also really good for long-form articles and retrospectives about retro games.

    And while it's mostly just news, like you said, Polygon will sometimes surprise you with some really excellent feature articles that have a lot of thought and research put into them.

  • Why are Mastodon's trending hashtags so ... dull?

    Jump

  • Yeah, that surprised me, actually.

    I just took Mastodon for a spin only a week or so ago, and it felt much less active than most of the communities on here do. Just my anecdotal experience, though. I couldn't find more than a handful of Twitter-migrated accounts on Mastodon that I cared to follow. There just wasn't much happening on there that I'm interested in when I last checked. I'll look again.

  • Why are Mastodon's trending hashtags so ... dull?

    Jump

  • Oh hell yeah they are. I'm a tech enthusiast, myself. Don't even get me started on Wednesdays because I'll never stop.

  • Why are Mastodon's trending hashtags so ... dull?

    Jump

  • Because it's just an incredibly small userbase made up mostly of tech/privacy enthusiasts as of right now.

  • Rain World: Downpour | Console Launch Trailer

    Jump

  • Oh, DLC. I thought this was a full-blown sequel out of nowhere.

  • This is sadly still the case and one of the main reasons I use Samsung phones today instead of Pixels. One Hand Operation gives me more ergonomic and easy to use gestures while also playing nicely with third party launchers.

    There's just no way in hell I could use the pixel launcher as my daily driver. It's too simple and lacks the bare minimum customization options that I would need to be able to tolerate it.
