They aren’t locked out yet, the PSN requirement is in 1 month, and the Arrowhead CEO said they are discussing solutions to this problem specifically. I highly doubt they leave these players high and dry

In his defense he put in hella hours to get it where it is. I agree he should give more feedback though. He was MIA when someone pinged him in the discord about the breaking changes of 19 and he chimed in and updated it. I was active in the discord and was in the closed beta. He did a LOT of work around the clock. Here’s to hoping he comes back with more frequent (even if minor) updates.

Written? Guess we’ll have to ban the Bible then

So technical. Such error

🍿🛋️ Ok, let’s hear them.

I have friends that claim they “don’t have hobbies” but the truth is that they spend all their time with their kids and working.

So if they say, “well I don’t do much in the way of hobbies because I’m too busy working and taking care of my kids.” You can then follow up with “well what do you do for work?” Or “what’s the last vacation or outing you did with your kids?” Or “what are your kids interested in? How old are they? Tell me about their personalities.”

The fact that they “don’t have hobbies” isn’t necessarily it backfiring, you then just need to pivot based on their answers. This is just a way to break the ice with someone.

Everyone spends their days doing things, you are really just asking them “how do you spend your time?” Everyone has an answer to that…unless they are in a coma.

I mean what Discords do you participate in? What Lemmy communities do you follow? What videos on YouTube do you like to watch?

You can reframe this and say, “I like to participate in online chat forums about the latest gaming news and technology (discord). I look for cool recipes and cooking techniques (Lemmy cooking community). And I love trying to find new funny comedians to listen to (YouTube).” I think if you narrow it down to the interests you enjoy, rather than “dicking around online” you’ll find that you have interesting things to talk about.

Obviously those examples are my own, but I’m sure you use those platforms because they feed you certain content that you enjoy.

So what do you like to do for fun? Or, What are some of your hobbies?

I find these much better than “so what do you do for work?”, which is what I’m asked constantly. “Yes, person who I don’t know, let me discuss work during my free time with you.”

It’s the easiest way to seed content but isn’t the best for building a community. Communities need to be more than RSS feeds. And that missing element is a human filter IMHO. Curated content.

I used to use a bot in one of my communities to help me out. Turns out it spammed way too much. Once I got feedback from the community I turned it off. I now have sources fed to me privately via RSS and then filter content based on what I think the community will enjoy and post it manually. Is it harder? Yes. But the community has more engagement, comments more, and votes positively more often since I started doing it this way. I also gain consistent new subscribers daily. I also have control over the “nozzle” so if multiple stories are worth posting but there are too many, I can sideline some for when the news slows down and post them later.

Fyi I just started !lorcana@lemmy.world

If no one from your instance has subscribed to that remote community yet it won’t load. It’s a quirk of how federation works. Once a single person from your instance subs to that community then your instance will begin to sync and federate content. To get around this, the easiest way is to:

• open the web browser and go to lemmyverse.net
• Click the home icon (shapes like a house) and set your home instance
• Then search for the community you want to subscribe to
• Open the link and it’ll open the community in your home instance where you can subscribe

If that still doesn’t work then go to your home instance community search page and search the full URL of the remote community. You may have to search for it twice for it to show up. Then you can hit subscribe. Once you do this, not all content will be fetched retroactively. I think just a few weeks of posts and comments, but all future content will federate properly

Edit: when I click the link in your post in sync, it opens just fine for me

I love Annapurna

Tell me more

Cocoon, from the lead gameplay designer behind Limbo and Inside. Comes out Sept 29th. I can’t wait.

If this was PS5/PS4 streaming but with the ability to play PS3/2/1 games locally, it would kill for $200. And they wouldn’t fracture the PS5 development base, which they are obviously afraid of doing.

Hell, even some modern indie games that don’t use the full PS5 horsepower could have potentially make a PSPortal version for on-the-go gaming.

Adding moonlight support for PC streaming would be cool. And for $100 I would buy this just for shits.

Why are the back buttons on the right controller aligned horizontally while the left controller back buttons are aligned vertically?

Also there are two side bottoms shown as well. I’d love to see a demo of this in action.
