No Man’s Sky, but without any other players. More or less how I play it anyway 😁

SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•You get teleported into a parallel universe where you were never conceived. How do you survive?10·4 days agoFirst thing I’d do is mourn my now-never-conceived kid. Then… dunno… Have a nap, maybe.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your favorite season? When that season actually comes, is that still your favorite season? (Or do you only like the *idea* of that season?)2·5 days agoHa, true. Having never seen any of it, it was nice to no longer feel I was missing out.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Football@lemm.ee•[Everton FC] Hill Dickinson named as official stadium naming rights partnerEnglish1·5 days agoUgh. “Stadium naming rights partner” is such a depressing phrase.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My password is not accepted because it is too longEnglish5·5 days ago26 characters? Perfect!
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz it is! And I’ll use it for everything!

SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto 90s Music@lemmy.world•Roni Size & Reprazent - Brown Paper Bag (1997)English2·6 days agoNot heard that in YEARS. What a great track 👍
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it weird to sometimes wonder whether everything you know is wrong?8·6 days agoYou’re using all 3 of the shells, right?
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's an important (in your opinion) skill too many people seem to lack?4·6 days agoI had that stuck to my desk at work for years. And I haven’t even opened the link yet to see if it’s the one I think it is.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the point of constitutional monarchies? Why even keep the monarchy in place if they aren't even doing anything?1·6 days agoTrue, but they can’t literally stop a law happening until it is written to suit them. Figuratively, maybe through influence, pressure, money, etc - but not as an official, formal thing.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto 90s Music@lemmy.world•Suzanne Vega (DNA Remix) - Tom's Diner (1990)English2·6 days agoI never realised that this version was a remix, it works so well. Great tune.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto techsupport@lemmy.world•After Firefox update on android phone, I can no longer connect to duckduckgo.com2·7 days agoNot a lot of help, I know, but I just tried DDG in both FF and FF Nightly to see if I could replicate - it was working fine, and then I updated both and still working fine I’m afraid.
FF
- version 137.0.2 org.mozilla.firefox - DDG working
- version 138.0.3 org.mozilla.firefox - DDG working
FF Nightly
- version 139.0a1 org.mozilla.fenix - DDG working
- version 140.0a1 org.mozilla.fenix - DDG working
Hope you can get it sorted, must be frustrating :-(
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the point of constitutional monarchies? Why even keep the monarchy in place if they aren't even doing anything?5·7 days agoGiven the way the US has been recently, I’m willing to admit that there may be some benefit to having a leader in some position of power that had been there a long time, and has, more or less, been training for the responsibly since birth.
That’s an argument I’ve often heard, in favour of monarchy - “Would you prefer a President Blair/Johnson/Farage?”
It’s a fair point, but they never have an answer for what would happen with a King Blair/Johnson/Farage.
With a president (or any other democratic system) you can, at least in theory, have a say in who represents the country. As it is we in the UK are stuck with a mind-meltingly wealthy, influential and unaccountable family who have extremely questionable members and histories.
They influence laws to benefit their own ends, they shield abusive behaviour and individuals, and they do it all in the name of maintaining a tradition that fundamentally says that some people are simply “better” than others.
Monarchy is just repugnant to me - and not just the British Monarchy, the whole concept.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Scotland @lemmy.world•Scottish Water warning after driest period in 60 years3·7 days agoThat’s brilliant. New head marketing located.
SanguinePar@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Gamers, what do you think of the Trevor Philips character ?6·7 days agoAgreed - it’s hard to ever feel any empathy with him, and so missions as him are much less enjoyable IMO. He’s a horrible person doing horrible things with no greater cause to even try to justify it.
Ghostbusters on C64. Love that game to this day.
