Or the need for the “you’re supposed to cry with laughter, why are you not crying with laughter” style emojis. Two of those, just in case.

I was thinking rather similarly. While I’m definitely not happy seeing far right parties emerge this vehemently, I’d rather have something like this than the quasi two-party system we have in my country where you either vote for pure corruption and Orwellian shit, or the only other option which might be somewhat
betterless shit (or the other few parties under 5%, potentially decreasing the less shit party’s chance to finally take control from the authoritarian crap).However, in my experience, these situations usually gravitate toward another quasi two-party system, but it might be just a local thing.
Luckily, I have just watched this yesterday to be able to understand it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=co7FsOYSxMo
TL;DW (weird typing this after a ‘TLDR news’ video): The Danish parliament got rather fragmented after the latest elections.

0·30 days agoFirst F-15: “it was friendly fire”. Second F-15: “shoots down another F-15”.
Great title, BTW: it shows again that ‘US’ is somewhere it definitely shouldn’t be.

5·1 month agoFifteen million merits.
If we want to avoid this shit, we need to come up with a free, open source, ad free alternative, for everything you see doing this. The problem is, once it becomes big enough, you’ll need at least some money invested to keep it running (server, maintenance, services, etc.). And then guess what generates enough money that scales with usage. I hate this, and I reaaaaally hope there’s some other way.
A bit unrelated, but what were the founding fathers high on when they named their new settlement TRAIN? : )

World News@lemmy.world•EU’s €90B plan to fund Ukraine in jeopardy as Hungary blocks dealEnglish
2·1 month agoThere will be national elections within 2 months. After 16 years, this is the first time there is a significant chance to boot Putin’s buttplug. The other contestant isn’t all glitter and marshmallows, either, but he is (or claims to be) definitely pro EU. Just have a little more patience, because things might change anyway.
Haha, thanks, it’s still just perfect to stir my tea with.
Unless it’s a joke, I can definitely see myself leaving my designated teaspoon in a glass of cafiza/Puly Caff overnight. Not in the fridge, though 🤔.

Games@lemmy.world•News - Diablo 2: Resurrected, A Remaster Of A 26-Year-Old Game, Currently Has More Players Than Diablo 4English
12·1 month agoIt might be just subjective, but I have played D3 (which D4 is more akin to) and D2, and I got bored rather early. D2 had some great mechanics, but in certain aspects it’s also stupidly rough around the edges when it comes to game design.
Most unique items give counterintuitive and sometimes straight high-on-pot bonuses. It screams that they were designed in the early stages of the game when developers honestly thought a sorceress can just run around and bonk enemies in the head with a staff (which is fair at rather low levels, but by the time you find these uniques… it’s like hopping off of a motorboat onto a floating wooden chair and paddling with a fork).
Before D2R, a bunch of builds were meh at best, weak more often. While classes don’t necessarily have to be all viable by focusing on one specific branch, but it’s kind of disappointing when you realise you can’t just make a curse necromancer.
There are also a bunch of skills that are one point wonders. Again, it’s not a requirement for all skills to scale well with points, but it just feels poorly designed for me when there are so many skills that are not worth spending on them. Critical hit? Why not, add 6-7 points into it (might not be the right skill/number, just an example). But you know what? We also allow you to add another 13-14 points with a negligible difference, because why not. All skills can get 20 points, so no exceptions.
The synergies in LOD were a nice addition and a creative fix for some builds, but some synergies still didn’t make sense. D2R also made some improvements, but if you want to build a Spearzon, you’ll still find yourself paddling with the aforementioned fork here and there.
I have never played D4, but I would still choose D2 over D3. But I feel like the player base is mostly the ones who played it back when it came out, and felt nostalgic about it. As players who grew up with better polished games, I think the younger generation would go with something that feels less like economy class.

World News@lemmy.world•Hungarian opposition leader Magyar vows to pull Hungary back toward the West in campaign launchEnglish
6·1 month agoWhile some others might think otherwise (and who am I to condemn someone I don’t even know personally), as another determined Magyar (ehh, I mean the guy) voter, I sense an overwhelmingly strong smell of narcissism, demagogy and vulnerability in him. After all, he used to be a faithful Fidesz party member up until he lost access to the honeypot.
At the moment, he is still our only hope and beacon of light before the elections in April, because the rest of the candidates are either complete underdogs or (even more) awful politicians, and after almost 16 years, he is the first one who has an actual chance to break Fidesz’s spell. We need to vote him, it’s a no-brainer.
But, unfortunately, he is rather far from being the impeccable Bicycle Repair Man some would like to see him as.

But a wide open pedo ring mail chain somehow eludes them.
Haha, yeah, meals containing cheese. Including (rather great) toasties.
About 5-6 years ago I did the same thing. I’m still a shameless omnivore, but I managed to reduce my meat consumption significantly. Around 2024 (so several years after I started) I had to get my blood analyzed. The only thing they found was my lack of vitamin D, but I live in a country with
minimalsuboptimal* sun exposure, so it’s a thing here anyway.Note that I still eat meat, but way less often than before. I started with a maximum of two meaty days per week (no cap on meat those days), but not as a fixed schedule: I just allowed myself when I really craved it, but not more than 2 days a week. Can be 1 or 0.
Fast forward to the end of 2023, when I started thinking about when I last had meat, and I couldn’t remember. It wasn’t quite hard, to be honest: there are awesome veggie meals around, and I still eat dairy and eggs whenever.

I just checked. User’s content is severely downvoted more often than not. Links from .ru domain (might not mean anything bad on its own). Consistently crops out the original content creator’s logo before posting Twonks and similar comics. Posts dozens of stuff within an hour or two.
EDIT: +mod history.
I wouldn’t bat an eye looking at these separately. Considering all these at once? Hmmmmm…
