thank you very much for enabling me going to bed and sleep tonight.

I think “difficulty settings” can work

all of the things you say are completely, 100%, unaffected by a difficulty setting.

The only thing a difficulty setting changes is that some people can say “I am better than you, I beat [game X] and you didn’t”

that’s it.

and even that is a complete illusion, see the prominent worst business man in the world, paying someone to make PoE ranks for him. Also there are mods, cheats and plain lying.

This whole thing is excluding people, and for what? Literally worthless bragging rights.

as if that little worm was important enough to shoot. pfft

are you aware of the meaning of the word “setting” in this context?
Just in case I can explain:
It means you can switch something from one behaviour or effect to another, basically giving you a choice of how something should work. So, adding a difficulty setting changes nothing about your experience of the game.

do you need more words to explain this simple thing?

I can try to use simple language and shorter sentences if you require it?

would they still like it if there was a difficulty setting?

“Not like THAT! Other peoples deaths!”

yes, i HATED that, and don’t think I ever finished any of those games.

that was not a good thing.

Every game should have difficulty settings, the more, the better.
That goes for indi darlings too.

agreed, except that the “getting dumber” really only started around 2010 or so…

“I just got a great idea for a new novel! It’s about the end of humanity, but with a twist, because the humans don’t even know they are done for yet. They think it’s just a bit more aggressive flu, but in fact it’s highly contagious and each time you get it, it damages your brain a slight bit more. Everyone keeps getting infected and so they slowly get dumber and more aggressive until civilization collapses in wars and economic chaos.”

“That’s stupid, something like that could never happen.”

why is this news, that’s his fucking job.

This made me laugh, thank you :)

That’s the sprit :)

1. Let people be happy about something. this is not helping anyone.

2. if there is ONE person on the planet who would by popular vote be allowed to have a private jet, it’s TayTay.

3. Gossip was and is a part of human nature, denying it makes no friends for your cause. Don’t call it bullshit, just because you don’t care.

If you want to DO ACTUAL GOOD:

put a story of palestinian/israleli couple on the fake front page.

Highlight the out of control Israel government with a story that shows protests in israel.

Be FOR something instead of AGAINST something.

immaculately sorted. IMMACULATELY!

There is a proverb in germany, that germans would still buy a train ticket to attend/travel to a riot/revolution.

This is as funny, just that it’s actually happening.

Yes they do. If I want malware and non malware on my PC then that is up to me, I am the fucking admin.

Fixed your post, and yes you are the admin, you can do what you want.

I mean, i expected some comments on this, but that ? really?
very weak. back to the drawing board.

alternative: Games do not belong on computers that do non-game things.

Anyway, this is going to be resolved as soon as north korea finds out who many people have important stuff on PC they game on, and hack some hapless devs source to install a rootkit on 100m PCs via steam.

I have been running testing for years on most (except production servers or as i like to call them: Computers with a job) of my machines including desktop and gaming pc.

It works fine, BUT there will be times when something is not as it should (one recent example was some wayland related glitches, but nothing really bad), or you buy new hardware and need the latest graphics drives that are not even in testing yet.

It’s perfectly viable to use AND you get to help make debian better with the occational bug report/additional info.
