I’ve been through a rage quit and a ‘got bored of not progressing’ quit, but I’ve kept coming back to the game. I’ve finished the game on the normal difficulty, still on and off making my way to finishing it on the hardest.

Slowly grinding my way through Sifu on Master difficulty.

Oh, that’s really cool! Thanks

Considering what brought me here, I’ll take finicky over maliciously designed any day. :)

Ah, I see. Thanks!

I think it’s fair to choose the smaller instance then, in the interest of diversification.

I remember reading a book that talked about public spaces and how we often think of malls as public spaces, but they have so many restrictions and ulterior motives that it doesn’t really hold.

They’re essentially the irl equivalent of centralised social media platforms. I hope once the fediverse really takes off, we can have ‘official’ platforms/instances that are run by governments that federate only to other ‘official’ ones. That seems like a better way to reach people, instead of Xitter.

As a fellow weed moment haver, this is one of the good ones.

Same with movies, like how the Venom movies have higher Rotten Tomatoes scores with each installment, despite getting worse as they went along.

Tbf, there is often a proportional reward (multiple seasons of good TV being quite a bit longer than the movies that get good).

Also, with how pacing, budgets and casts work in the industry, a movie often ends up having more in terms of emotional investment and new information than an equivalent length of TV. So the effort to watch a movie is not the same as watching an hour and a half of TV (on average).
