Same - monarchy’s flaw is that it’s clear who is in charge and who can be (ultimately) blamed. The same thing is simultaneously it’s advantage - it’s honest. For fans of voting - you can have elected monarchy as was a case with few countries ;)

I like the original movies and I’m considering to go see it - is it worth it?

Hmm I’m not sure it’s as simple as that. The things stopping me from hosting my own Lemmy instance is that I don’t see notices about data processing/administrating entity/right to be forgotten/data dump about yourself anywhere on public instances. I don’t intend to implement these myself or share with whole word my home address so that they know where I am located. However the public instances are running fine without this, so maybe this threat of lawsuits isn’t as serious as you suggest?

Same for me on Memmy.

Neat! Got that chair from their profile pic today and it’s super comfy. Highly recommend :D Both chair and community.

To be honest I like it, it makes sense to me.

I go on Lemmy to my community X - there is 3 posts last week, 2 of them have any comments.

My curiosity is not satisfied, I go to Reddit, same community X - 300 posts this week, all with comments. Of course I’m going to keep coming to red

My goal is to ditch Reddit - so I can only go on Lemmy, I can live with lower number of comments but what kick-starts the community and and discussion is content. With lemmit I’ve got BOTH content from Reddit and Lemmy in one place, no need to go on Reddit. Double win for me, more content on Lemmy and less people go to Reddit. Optimally when the community on some topic on Lemmy grows substantially the bot should be turned off.

I played the base on day one (PC) - stopped due to bugs impacting missions. Got back to it after two months (and several patches) and it was awesome, give it a try. At least on PC after first few patches everything was golden for me. As for lack of content - yep, in comparison to what the trailer “showed” it seemed a little underwhelming, but the game felt complete and enjoying as it is :)

To protect the world from devastation!

I agree with your comment.

However, cough cough Akshually…

While genocidal they lost the title of MOST genocidal dictatorship. CPSU even at moderate estimates is much higher than Nazis.

Unless “most” means people/year performance to you?

I’ve seen a video of US Navy using an Xbox controller (arguably for experimental weapon iirc but still). If it just works why overengineer it? I would be more concerned about that hull (scuttlebutt says it was just carbon over titanium frame, not titanium hull overlayed with carbon). However I guess we will have to wait until they find the boat to know the reason for failure.
