  • Here, have some beans.

    We don’t do pay-a-social-media-ceo-to-win around here, we do beans. Practical, eatable, 100% all natural digital beans.

    Some other users may be able to gift you a proper lemmy kilmister commerative gold token, but I don’t have the jpg.

    EDIT: oh right, a possibly useful warning:

    About a month or two ago, lemmy seems to have attracted its first mass spam bot, dming thousands of users with basically a phising email.

    If you get a message from ‘Fediverse Chick’, that’s not her, someone stole her image, just block the user.



  • It is a lot easier to be ‘evil’ or at least amoral in a game that does not play as a giant power trip for the player by making them fairly easy to become absurdly OP.

    For example, play Kenshi.

    You don’t have to be ‘evil’, but chances are, going out of your way to be ‘good’ all of the time will get you scammed, enslaved, starved to death or killed.

    In many video games, being good vs evil is a relatively costless, relatively cosmetic decision.

    It usually takes either an extremely harsh world, or very good storytelling to make such decisions more meaningful, where pragmatism and the innate messiness of reality factor in more greatly, to make such decisions more meaningful.
