Pls someone make this reality
  • The Y2K issue was real, but a lot of people spent a lot of effort to fix it before it became a problem. The dire warnings were exaggerated, it was never going to end the world, but the problem really did exist and it really could have led to some pretty serious issues especially with financial institutions.

  • Who is a fictional character that is loved you find either overrated or you don't get the appeal ?
  • The other users spoiler tag was fine

    Are you referring to TheMinions' spoiler? Because that one is also using lemmy spoilers not reddit spoilers. So maybe Sync has actually updated to support lemmy spoilers but there's something different about how they are formatted in each comment. Here's a test:

    ::: This is how TheMinions did it This should be properly hidden.:::

    ::: This is how Nighed did it This may not be properly hidden :::

    Strangely, neither of these are working quite right for me in the web client.

  • Password must match the following
  • I once experienced a site just silently truncating a password that was too long. Such a ridiculous thing to do. It was several years ago, gaming related. I think it might have been Ubisoft, but I'm not sure that I'm remembering that correctly.

  • What games did you have a good time with that you just never finished?
  • The sword fighting becomes way easier once you unlock some skills through training. The first time I played I didn't know about the training and it took me way longer than it should have to figure it out. Maybe you already know about that, but just in case you missed that like I did at first, thought I'd mention it.

  • What games do you play on your phone?
  • All the way through your comment I was thinking, you should try Slay the Spire, but you beat me to it. Another one you might consider is Star Traders: Frontiers I don't think it has any microtransactions (it's also on Steam)

  • I managed to run The Sims 4 on Linux after over 6 hours
  • You can add it to steam, it's free and dlc bought from ea works with the steam version.

    I find it's easier to get the ea version running though, so I usually just add the launcher as a non steam game, and that works fine too.

  • Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing?
  • My bet, A youtuber discovered the game and made videos that did reasonably well in the indie audience, then other youtubers picked up and it snowballed some. I've been seeing more coverage of the game on youtube for a couple of years now.

  • PSA: Significant Lae'zel Bug [SPOILER]

    I somehow got into a state where Lae'zel couldn't be interacted with. I'll put the rest in a spoiler tag for those that don't want to know the details.

    spoiler

    Lae'zel woke me up during the night and challenged me to a fight because she couldn't stop thinking about me. She was down bad, lol. Anyway, I agreed and killed her dead, then revivified her. Well, that broke her. From then on I couldn't talk to her, couldn't interact with her at all, and she wouldn't join combat.

    When I got into a fight, she remained outside of the fight and could act with impunity. I was literally able to take control of her and go up to each enemy and kill them dead without using any turns. This is obviously very broken. So beware.

    Luckily, I was able to resolve it by loading a save from before the fateful event, and only lost an hour of progress.

    Spoilers Not Working in Sync

    Lemmy doesn't do spoilers the same way that Reddit does. Sync appears to still be using the reddit style of spoilers, i.e. \>!spoiler!<, however on the web-ui those are visible to users, and the spoilers that web users use in the editor which look like this:

    ```

    spoiler goes here

    ```

    Aren't hidden in Sync. Consider this a PSA for users of Sync that may want to avoid spoilers or avoid spoiling others. Personally, I'd like to see \>!spoiler!< supported more widely on Lemmy, but in the meantime this should probably be addressed in Sync.
