In this Ukrainian village, almost no men are left
  • The reason isn't that they believe men are disposable. It is that they believe women are inferior. Just look at the comments in this topic.

  • Steam :: Introducing Steam Families
  • You don't need to buy physical copies. Games from GoG and, for example, itch.io can be downloaded DRM free.

  • Paying your rent: it's that easy
  • How much money do you believe the average woman can make on Only fans?

  • Paying your rent: it's that easy
  • Why do you think you can't do that as a man?

  • Girls Basketball Team Kicked Out Of Boys League Championship After Defeating Boys Teams
  • Can relate. I was beat up by another kid of my age after practice because I beat him in a really small and unimportant Judo tournament. We were both 12 and his parents, my parents and the trainers all agreed that he just overreacted because he was scared the other boys would bully him. I switched to ballet afterwards.

  • We've had a few killer games recently
  • Me neither. Personally I have had more fun with Nightingale and Enshrouded and hope they will continue working on these games.

  • Knowledge Based Rules
  • Noita definitely cost me some sweat and tears.

  • Can't get it out of my head
  • Maybe because the goal of feminism is to have more equally not to bolster the ranks of marginalised people with even more women.

    Maybe if men wanted to have more women in these jobs they shouldn't be so fucking hostile and sometimes dangerous to women.

    Maybe if men hadn't built a society with only men in mind, including when designing equipment, procedures, etc., for these jobs, maybe women had a better chance doing them?

  • Can't get it out of my head
  • Today?? This is an issue, especially on the meme communities here.

    And that's the irony of the meme, isn't it? I am guessing it was done by a man.

  • European crash tester says carmakers must bring back physical controls
  • I never thought it would bother me, until I actually sat in a car where everything was dependent on software the first time.

    At first I thought I was just getting old. But it dawned on me that relying on software to fucking roll down the windows or starting the car doesn't feel too good.

    (It was also an extreme jump in technology for me because the last car I drove before that was an old Corsa around the year ~2005.)

  • White Rural Trump Supporters Are a Threat to Democracy
  • And what is the consequence from this observation?

  • Removed
    That's some big inflation
  • Shitty sexist meme.

  • What’s in a name?

  • Israel Not Complying with World Court Order in Genocide Case
  • That is something Palestine and especially Hamas will not accept. They have said multiple times already that they wish for a "pure Muslim state".

  • Israel Not Complying with World Court Order in Genocide Case
  • So what is the solution for this problem, in your opinion?

  • Nick Offerman Slams ‘Homophobic Hate’ Against His ‘The Last of Us’ Episode: ‘It’s Not a Gay Story. It’s a Love Story, You A–hole!’
  • What exactly didn't you like? I thought it was one of the episodes that definitely did stick with me. And the actor of Bill was amazing and carries the whole piece.

  • Enlightened Centrism
  • What exactly is "not true"?

  • Sinking ship hit by Houthi missile leaves 18-mile oil slick in Red Sea, US officials say
  • If they didn't have the funding they would all be dead already because they are regularly under fire from rockets. Not only now, but also before the last attack of the Hamas.

  • How cheap is the cheapest home for sale in your city/region?
  • 38 m^2, 2 rooms, 1 bathroom, 169000 € in a rural part of a bigger city in Western Germany.

    That's an exception, though. The house is a bit weird since it apparently stands next to a church in the backyard of some other building...

  • Enlightened Centrism
  • When your only idea to solve problems is violence you don't care for having people's needs met, you just want to dominate others and still claim to be the good guy. I see that on the side of "the left" and you can distance yourself from that without becoming right wing or conservative.

  • Missing women on Lemmy and decentralised networks

    With more people joining Lemmy and other decentralised networks there is a growing shift to the common misogyny and sexism we find on other social media networks (YouTube, Reddit, etc.).

    I think it's pretty obvious that the reason is that there are even less women here than other places online. What are your ideas on how to change that? Or do you feel it is a lost cause?

    The Israel-Hamas war is becoming a virtue signaling competition online
    www.msnbc.com The Israel-Hamas war is becoming a virtue signaling competition online

    In the rush to make their opinions known, many social media users have spread dubious claims, hurting their efforts to help bring peace to the Middle East.

    The Israel-Hamas war is becoming a virtue signaling competition online

    Real life dystopia has become so boring, people not directly involved intensify drama online to bring the conflict into their online lives.

    An opinion piece I find quite fitting for Lemmy as well. I wonder how a "boring" just fact based rational social media would look like?

    Details zum Werbeverbot

    Was fällt alles unter das Werbeverbot auf Feddit.de? Darf man zum Beispiel zu Steam oder Humble Bundle Angeboten linken? Oder darf man sie ohne Links empfehlen? Oder ist beides nicht erlaubt? Dürfte ein GameDev hier sein Produkt vorstellen? 🤔

    Ich hatte irgendwie automatisch angenommen mit "Werbung" ist aufdringliche und kontextferne Eigenwerbung gemeint. Aber da es auch eine Regel gegen Spam gibt bin ich mir nun nicht mehr so sicher was in den Communities auf Feddit erlaubt ist und was nicht.

    Nice Game Bundles om Humble and Fanatical

    Humble Bundle currently has a Bundle with 8 cozy Steam games

    I never played "Here Comes Niko", so I do not have any experience with that game.

    But all the other games in this bundle I played already and they are all great! Humble Bundle lately had a few bundles with mediocre and bad games imho, but this bundle is honestly a very good deal if you have the money to spare.

    Especially "Witchy Life Story", "Assemble with care", "Alba a wildlife adventure" and "A Short Hike" are truly amazing imho.

    There are also two coupons. I think it's kind of sad they started to add coupons to bundles, but Haven Park I recommend as well. Don't know the other one.

    Remember that you can buy this bundle with friends and share the keys! ╰(▔∀▔)╯

    If you need help in how the sharing or Humble Bundle in general works, please leave a comment so we can explain how it's done.

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    There is another bundle with cozy games, this one is on Fanatical. The Link to the bundle on Fanatical

    !

    Fanatical may seem a bit suspicious, but apparently it's an official reseller of keys. At least I couldn't find anything bad about the site and I've used it in the past with no problems. Again, these are keys for Steam.

    "Them's Fightin' Herds" is a fighting game with ponies drawn by Lauren Faust!

    "Floppy Knights" is a turn-based strategy game with cards and a lovely protagonist and story.

    "Garden Story" is an action RPG with a cute story and art.

    "Kitaria Fables" is a farming game with cute art and a bit of hack&slash. The only game of that type that you can play in Coop, as far as I know (but only on the same PC).

    If you only want to buy the smallest tier, I'd personally ditch Kitaria Fables because it sadly is a bit buggy and grindy at times.

    If you need a 5th game I'd recommend Wall World! It's not cozy but rather stressful. :P A great game regardless.

    The Nova game siblings!
    store.steampowered.com Save 10% on Nova Lands on Steam

    Nova Lands is a factory building, exploration, and island management game. Explore, engage in combat, and automate your industry. The planet you’re on is full of mysteries, creatures, people, and things to do. Welcome to your new home amongst the stars!

    Save 10% on Nova Lands on Steam

    Nova Lands has been released on Steam. It's a Sci-Fi builder with chill music and cute pixel style. !

    I played the prologue Emilia's Mission, which is sadly not available anymore. :( But I thought the game was really fun.

    It has a bit more depth to it than one might think from the looks of it. Since you can optimize the automatization of your crafting processes and use drones to do some work for you. A small warning: you can die in the game from a lack of oxygen and I think if you anger the bees too much they sting you.. a lot .. :D So it's not 100 % friendly.

    There is also a game called Lost Nova, by the way, which is also a cute Sci-Fi game which costs a bit less and is not a builder, but an Open World Exploration game.

    !

    So don't confuse the two. ( “・ω・゙)

    What was your first wholesome game?

    The first game I ever played of the genre was probably Wandering Willows. It's quite old, release was in 2009. It was very different from all the other games I played up until then (which was mostly Final Fantasy, Zelda, Mortal Combat and the like xD).

    You are stranded on an island and have to fulfill quests and help the villagers. As a companion you can catch various pets and level them. There is also farming and character customization.

    What's your preferred gaming platform?

    Nearly all my gaming happens on my PC, with the majority of my game library hailing from Steam or Good Old Games (GoG). I've been eyeing a Nintendo Switch or perhaps a Steam Deck, though...

    As for mobile games, I've yet to discover one that I like. :<

    The tough question: what is cozy?

    What makes a game "cozy" for you? That special feeling you get, like you're wrapped in a warm blanket on a rainy day. It doesn't always have to be all rainbows and sunshine for me, although I love games like Animal Crossing, Stardew Valley, and Slime Rancher which definitely give off the cute vibes.

    But it can also have a bit of a darker side. Take Night in the Woods for instance. Sure, it has its dark moments, but it still feels homey and familiar. And Spiritfarer. Anyone else feel the same way?

    I think a warning might be good when recommending certain cozy games, but overall I still think those "darker" ones earn the title. Or should cozy mean absolutely only unicorns and flower patterns?
