From all the years listed, 2007 is the only one that I would agree was weak, for my taste in games.
And 2013 was peak. It’s absolutely the year I spent more time playing new games, with a monthly average way past 200 hours (300+ by the final quarter).

World News@lemmy.world•Anatomy of a coup plot: why former President Jair Bolsonaro is on trialEnglish
9·8 months agoBolsonaro did absolutely nothing to fight corruption of any kind. All of his feuds with the Supreme Court had nothing to do with the other being corrupt. Much to the contrary, Bolsonaro actively worked to prevent corrupt government officials from being ousted.
And if my grandma had wheels she would have been a bike. What difference does it make what they would do in a hypothetical scenario?
What’s missing from your analogy is that if you try to run away and fail, your mom will beat you even more - and both your parents spent their whole lives rigging the house so you wouldn’t get away. And if you manage to, any other person you talk to in the street will turn out to be an undercover security officer who will take you back to the house.
It is 100% a hostage situation - you either let them have their way and accept a miserable life, or they force their way and you live a miserable and painful life.
Of course the ideal solution is to get away. But how? Simply trying to walk out the front door every 4 years is not really working.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If conditions on earth are perfect for life to form shouldn't have happened more than once?
23·9 months agoIt’s like when playing the lottery, if you say you’re picking all your numbers in a sequence, like 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. People will tell you’re crazy because sequences like that “never” happen. But the same is true for every other combination of numbers too. The sequence just makes it clearer how unlikely you are to ever pick the winning numbers.
In the early century I’ve seen companies bundle an entire pc (with case and all) inside their own products just to avoid dealing with windows CE.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What will be the top news headline on the day that you die?
4·10 months agoTop headline will be about some new word the young generation is using. The smaller pieces will say stuff like “are you morally opposed to murder? That may cost you your job! 12 out the 14 companies in America say they wouldn’t hire someone with antique puritane views”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you were in a room with your own pet and 99 identical pets, how would you pick out your pet (aside from calling their name)?
4·10 months agoIf I say “it’s here” she’ll run towards any window to bark.
It became mandatory for all new products in 2011, so a few years after that most people were used to it, though there’s many people still using adapters to this day.
Type N might not be the best but it was like a gift from heavens here in Brazil. We had no standard before it so most outlets would take one or two unsafe options; most houses would not ground their outlets, people would yank out the ground pin from plugs to make them fit; washing machines would often come with a completely different plug that some houses would just have a different outlet for, while others would use adapters. And so many other issues.
Nowadays you don’t even need to see what you’re doing because you can just stick your hand into outlets to feel where it is and insert the plug blindly without any risk.
Is there any average differences in hormones between gay and straight people of the same gender?

I didn’t even start listening to music until I was already an adult.
As long as it runs the same code, yes. But things may change, clients may pre-emptively split the string or stuff like that.
Imagine getting a multi byte character at the right position to get it split so that one byte gets in and the other doesn’t.
