It’s the rollercoaster tycoon umbrella strat all over again

Honestly also some very non niche things that are big on reddit aren’t much of a thing here. Like the Netherlands subreddit is the second largest non English speaking sub. It’s barely a thing on Lemmy.
Honestly I’m engaging more on lemmy in comments but if you manage to create a nice list of fun subs to follow on reddit a lot of complaints about bots and stuff are less problematic. Then again I also follow some Dutch subs and they seem to have less bots with the language barrier and all.
Lemmy does seem to be more negative though. A lot of doom and gloom here. I’m not really into Linux but I’ll admit that windows and Microsoft ain’t great. However the amount of complaining about how shit Microsoft is on stead of being enthusiastic about Linux baffles me. And you see these things in other communities too. The reddit helldivers community seems to be a bunch of memes and the lemmy oke a bunch of complaints.
Then again my comments seem to actually reach people on Lemmy so I am more active here.
I had the same problem with the 2018 tomb raider. Lara Crofts dad spends years surviving in a cave on an island and has perfect fucking teeth.
That comment is fucking wild to read as a European. I never before got a culture shock from a comment lol.
The Dutch police have their ups and downs but nothing heinous like in the post has happened so far. The Dutch law also states that the police is not allowed to use more violence than absolutely necessary. Which is obviously difficult but seems reasonably well followed.
That doesn’t mean protests are not broken up, but there has to be a reason why. Recent pro Palestine protests at Universities are broken up because, well, they were making it (partially) impossible to to attend said universities. Same with extinction rebellion protesting on a busy highway.
The Dutch police definitely has their problems with racial profiling and stuff though.
I could definitely be wrong, please correct me if I am.
My dad found a OG gameboy in a train when I was a kid so when I actually played tetris lol. Close my eyes and see the bricks fall. (which is what the tetris effect is.)
Then I had it with Mario Kart, close my eyes and see the track move.
And the weirdest thing is when I finally got properly used to vr and played 3 hours of half-life: Alyx straight. I had to physically touch a wall to convince a part of my mind that this was real life, and not vr.
I’m also Dutch and honestly I think part of it is the amount of subtitled English tv I watched when I was young. I tried the same with German struggled finding things to watch.
If you look at Germany or France they often dub over stuff while we subtitle everything.
We know, the EU also told meta to behave. Meta then threatened to leave and everyone was like “ok, when?”. Because we’ll just switch to the next best thing. So meta behaved. Sort of, it’s an ongoing thing.
So using the Dunning-Krueger effect to prove how smart you are is an example of the Dunning-Krueger effect?
Nowadays it’s probably also because of the dominance of American culture, especially online.
A local church is about that old (or it’s at least that old, the oldest record of it is from 1262). But there might just be a barn or a windmill that’s much older and nobody knows because at that point it’s actually medieval and record keeping wasn’t great back then.
I’m Dutch and a zoo near me has racoons too. But then again they’re an invasive species here so it’s not as weird.
Or they’re Dutch. Seriously we’ll send you a venmo (tikkie) for 3 cents.
Captain Holt in brooklyn 99. He’s both black and gay but the most standout thing about him is how he is extremely precise and organised and how he shows very little emotion.
He’s portrayed by Andre Braugher who sadly enough past away last year.
Well then at least you can read the books to know how it ends.
On one hand, fuck em. Blow it all up! Helps us going green.
On the other hand I already struggle to afford petrol and I’m physically unable to take another transportation method.
Tell me when you figure it out because rust (the game) is also on there.
His brother (Jezza) is a great artist and while I don’t know much about him I don’t think he’s anything like shad. I regularly see him cooperate on a warhammer channel called tabletop time and they have videos about women in the warhammer scene (made by one of their female members). So I highly doubt those two have much in common.
