Language is flexible. Deal with it.

Recently?! Nintendo famously hates their fans for years now.

I don’t know. It’s just that it feels really unorganic how often it comes up on Lemmy.

Especially with fake sounding “organic” threads that I know from proven social media marketing.

I could very well be wrong of course but if I had the time I would investigate this further.

All this talk about organic maps here on Lemmy does not feel organic at all.

Is there an ad campaign or something?

Do it the German way and just trauma dump. I mean if they didn’t care they shouldn’t have asked.

In Germany “how are you” is also smalltalk but you are not expected to lie. Just keep it short.

“Wie geht’s?”

“Nicht so gut gerade und bei dir?”

I mean it is for GTA online if I understand this correctly. Cheating in multiplayer is a shitty thing to do IMHO.

In Singleplayer I’m with you. My game, my computer, my control.

It’s a government conspiracy. They did let in all the dirty foreigners just so they can tell you personally: America bad!

It’s funny how many Americans don’t realize that there are people living life outside the US that also have access to the internet and Lemmy.

As someone living in an area where I can literally walk into 3 different countries (even if I need to hike a few hours) I cannot wrap my head around that exceptionalism.

Planck’s principle

At least 500 years old. Everybody else is just too damn infantile and stupid.

Why the heck did nobody yet develop an alternative like we’ve seen with SimCity/City skylines?!

They would make so much money and fuck EA.

Money

Yep. That’s why I stopped distro hopping years ago.

Once set-up it just works™.

You’re not Cheddar!

No die, is funni

Wait until you hear of a little state called Arkansas.

Whoosh?

The “this would never happen to me” mindset really is cancer to logical thought and reasoning.

I somewhere read (maybe it was thinking fast and slow by Kahneman?) that even psychology students learning about certain behaviors would later anonymously claim they would never fall into these patterns. But plot twist: they are also only human, so of course they also could fall into these patterns.

Another example: People that think they would never fall for a scam. If it is the right scam they will fall even more easily for it than people that know that it could happen.

“Of course it can’t be a scam. Scams are obvious and only idiots fall for them.”

What’s confusing? I am confused by your confusion. This is all confusing.
