It already went to 25k concurrent Steam Players… love to see well-crafted games get the support they deserve.

And I also love this:

Skill name of FPS Mastery has been changed to “The Ame Way”.

Italy's President Sergio Mattarella has told Elon Musk to stop interfering in the country's politics, after the tech billionaire criticised an Italian court for blocking the transfer of migrants to detention centres in Albania built through a controversial immigration deal.

Musk, who has been picked to jointly lead a new "Department of Government Efficiency" by US President-elect Donald Trump in his incoming administration, wrote on Tuesday on X that "these judges need to go".

He was referring to judges in Rome who had ruled against Italian PM Giorgia Meloni's initiative to outsource the processing and detention of some asylum seekers to Albania.

In a later post, the Tesla owner wrote: "This is unacceptable. Do the people of Italy live in a democracy or does an unelected autocracy make the decisions?”

Turbo my beloved. I gave a listen to some of them and I loved it, A New Start is probably my favorite but they were all pretty good, as expected. Also on a side note, the little gifs are really cute too!

It feels pretty weird to have such a polite/formal interview drop the word “normies” twice, but I guess it gets the point across so…

Slightly better translation from google:

▪︎A simple walk almost killed me

I came to Mt. Fuji.

I couldn't see Mt. Fuji.

I decided to take a walk since I'd come all the way.

I turned the forest into a karaoke venue and sang to my heart's content.

Maybe I could make it to the foot of Mt. Fuji.

I kept walking with this expectation in my heart.

On the way, I passed a similar sign and trees and wondered if I was looping around the same place?

I got excited thinking that.

There was no way that was the case.

There was no one in the forest.

I arrived at a teahouse, but it was closed for the day.

I put 10 yen at the mini shrine and said Thank you for your beautiful voice.

I'll sing a lot.

I finally reached the hiking trail.

It seems to be called "Uma Kaeshi".

It was named after a horse that once turned back from here.

If I turned back here, I'd be just like the horse.

I was frustrated, so I stepped a little further in.

There were stairs and a torii gate, and stones piled up.

It was mystical, but I felt like I wouldn't be able to go back if I went in, so I gave up.

I looked around but there was no one there. There were no buses heading back.

My phone's battery was below 30%.

It wasn't dark yet.

I'd make it in time.

While I was thinking that, it was already pitch black.

I walked all the way down the concrete road.

I fell over on the cracked and shattered ground.

I sang a song to myself, feeling like I was about to give up.

I turned on the light on my cell phone.

I remembered the bear warning signs I'd seen countless times, but I sang even though I was scared.

The concrete road was completely devoid of cars.

I returned to the teahouse. I greeted the mini-shrine I'd visited on the way there with joy, and took a rest on a bench.

Then I realized, I couldn't find my location on the map.

I'd better hurry home.

This is what they mean when they say it's fine to go there, but scary to come back.

I kept walking without looking back.

My breath went white, and I felt my body getting cold. I warmed myself up with some gin, the god of Mt. Fuji, that I'd bought at a convenience store on the way there.

I clutched it like a charm and sang along well.

I was so happy to finally find a sign.

It said that if I followed the "Yoshida Route" I could get home.

I cried and thanked the complete stranger Yoshida.

If I took this path I'd definitely get home. I felt a deep sense of relief.

I kept walking while sobbing.

I was so relieved that the tears wouldn't stop.

Just as I was starting to feel refreshed, I saw lights on a road where not a single car had passed.

If this were a horror movie, they'd make you feel safe and then trick you, so I wasn't going to be fooled.

I had time to think about such things.

My battery was at 9% and I didn't know where I was.

If I kept going like this I'd really be lost.

I might get eaten by a bear.

This was a life-or-death situation.

I mustered up all my courage and hitchhiked.

But the world isn't an easy place.

But if I'm lucky, I'll hitchhike!

I tried many times, but when I thought about it carefully, I saw a mysterious woman waving with a light in one hand. It was clearly a frightening sight.

My dream of hitchhiking never came true.

Don't depend on me, just walk.

Car lights are 100 times better than a pitch black road with no light.

In fact, when the cars stopped passing by, I even felt lonely.

I turned off the light on my cell phone to save battery.

I relied on the occasional car light.

My feet were already throbbing.

But walking was the only way home.

I wondered how far I had walked.

I was finally able to return.

Even though I had wanted to be in touch with nature so much, I had overdosed and began to miss the modern world.

When I passed people in the city.

When I bought a drink from a vending machine.

When I arrived at the station and visited a shop.

I was embarrassed, but I also felt relieved.

This is an easy way to time travel.

When I took off my shoes at the shop to check the size, my socks were covered in blood.

No wonder they got hurt on the street.

I bought a pair of slippers that looked comfortable.

At the souvenir shop, I bought a bag for my discarded shoes.

I felt like I had thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Mt. Fuji.

The shop assistant even gave me a plastic bag to put my shoes in.

I was also able to charge my phone in a closed cafe.

This was a life-or-death situation, so I was saved.

Thank you so much.

I couldn't see Mt. Fuji, and I hadn't even started climbing it yet

Even just the walk in the forest was an epic day.

Not bad for a first time on Mt. Fuji!

I'll get my revenge someday.

Just wait for me! Mt. Fuji.

Yep, every time Dems can’t get enough votes from the left to win, because they aren’t “left/pure enough” for them, what they learn is to shift to the right to find votes.

And can you blame them? Who do you think is more efficient catering to, the right-wing idiot who went to vote for a rapist felon or the self-proclaimed leftist that didn’t vote to stop fascism because they didn’t like the alternative enough?

These last elections were already “right vs far right”, following ones are 100% going to be even worse. When the right wins, shifting left makes no logical sense.

Is the bgm really loud on this one or is it just me?

Anyway, repeats (and their descriptions) are always great nonetheless.

I haven’t really followed the first gen and I’m not a fan of the designs, but if they’re as good at singing as them I’m definitely not gonna complain.

[–] Syrc@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Imagine a system where a fascist Boogeyman is held up every election and people reliably vote against them without regard for who they vote for. The other party could put up whatever shitty candidate they wanted whether they espouse the views of the population or not.

Except when the other party sees they lose 3/4 elections in a row by putting up fascist boogeymen, they will statistically stop doing that, since it’s a losing strategy. They can only keep doing that because Americans are showing them that they actually like it better than an actual human being.

Not my favorite genre but I like how broadway-ish it feels, it really sets it apart from most other group songs.

Counting the "special episodes", FWMC Morning already lasted longer than Asacoco. That's incredible, mad props to them.

only affect change if they become violent (see george floyd)

Did those even change anything, actually? I just remember some statues being torn down and the police just doing their business as usual. They also need to be aimed at the correct targets for them to be effective.

Couldn’t fit the name outside this time, but we got more stuff on the left so it’s all good (I also did a Koronesuki before the expansion, but that was a bit too far away to get in the screenshot lol).

Once again, thanks to everyone who contributed!

 

Italy’s parliament erupted into violence on Wednesday when a lawmaker was attacked while trying to hand an Italian flag to another MP over a local government bill.

According to local media, the lawmakers had been discussing a bill on so-called differentiated autonomy, introduced by the right-wing government of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

The draft law calls for Italy’s individual administrative regions to be given wider rights of self-governance, which the Five Star Movement is against, fearing it will lead to the “disintegration of Italy.”

During the ensuing brawl, Donno was knocked to the ground and later taken to hospital in a wheelchair.

 

So I was skimming again through the comments of a thread, and saw a comment with 42 upvotes, including mine, and no downvotes, as “removed by a mod”. I was curious about which comment was it and the reason, but looking at the modlog, the only action shown against that account is apparently a mod banning it from the site with reason “rape jokes are not tolerated here”. Looking at the account, its whole comment history has been nuked.

Now, I have numerous questions:

-Can mods ban people from the whole site? I thought only admins could do that?

-What does “banning from site” actually mean? Comments were deleted from every instance, does an admin (or mod) from one instance have such “power” over the others?

-I’m pretty sure I did NOT upvote a rape joke, is it really correct to nuke the entire comment history of an account just because of one violation? I’m afraid that could lead to a huge loss of content as the site progresses. Especially if simple mods can do that.

I can link to the specific account/comment if I get authorization, not sure if that’s allowed.

I noticed removed comment behavior is particularly weird, on lemmy.world exclusively (so I don’t think it’s software-related?).

As opposed to other instances, where they show up as “removed”, here they don’t show up at all. If it’s a parent comment you can’t see it or any of the replies, and if it’s a reply the parent comment shows with “(X) more replies” under it, which upon clicking just loads infinitely.

Is this intended behavior? It seems limiting (and pointless to have links in the lodmog since they don’t work and you can’t see the context anyway).

Accessing by firefox/mobile safari, on the regular website without any clients.

 

Hayao Miyazaki’s The Boy and the Heron will premiere in Colombia on January 25. Ahead of that debut, the film is getting an unplanned and likely unappreciated marketing push, as a local woman has gone viral for convincing major media outlets that she drew around 25,000 frames for the film’s production.

Canvas (Lemmy’s version of r/place) started today (at https://canvas.toast.ooo/), and I figured trying to place at least the main logo (maybe Stars too) would be cool.

If anyone wants to help I’d love it, there’s even a built-in way to add a template in the options (I’m currently using the original 2022 one, starts at 812,486).

Either way, I’m still going to put it there or die trying, so if you see something resembling it in the final canvas you know whose fault it is lol

Basically, I was trying to view this post from this instance and for some reason the picture wouldn’t show up in regular browsing. So I tried clicking it and multiple times, without fail, every time I open it I get logged out from lemmy.world. Any reason why might this happen?
