thisisbutanameto Games@lemmy.world•Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how?English3·13 days agoI used to just cruise around in The Crew, enjoying a chill ride around
Haha yeah, but I could do even better:
Tariffs bad because history
Did anyone mention how the 1930 tariffs sparked a wave of retaliatory tariffs by other nations, greatly reducing international trade, pushing a natural resources poor Japan to conclude that in order to survive it needed an empire, so it invaded other countries, committing such atrocities that even Nazi Germany was like “whoa dude, chill”, which lead to their participation in WWII, Pearl Harbor and the deployment of nuclear bombs? No?
That was my first thought while reading it
thisisbutanameto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does non francophone improv theatre also uses convention inspired by hockey ?51·25 days agoThe matches I’ve been to in Italy have been the same, probably imitating that original idea
Maybe it’s been around longer than the others? Italian is pretty consistent with pronunciation, but modern Italian is a relatively recent language

thisisbutanameto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What sorts of punctuation do you wish existed, or were in common use in your language?7·28 days agoYeah, English using accents to mark stress would be very useful
I’ve played the original for years and never found all the secrets. Can’t wait to miss more in the new one
thisisbutanameto World News@lemmy.world•Italy one of five ‘dismantlers’ causing ‘democratic recession’ in Europe, report saysEnglish55·1 month agoRight now Meloni is suing Daniele Fabbri, a stand-up comedian, for a satirical video he published in 2021.
The comedian was commenting on some sexist insults the politician received, saying that it’s possible to criticise a public figure without being misoginistic. Being a comedian he did that by listing some overly childish insults along the lines of “stinky” and such.
It is very troubling when a prime minister aims to silence dissident voices exercising the protected right to satire, and I find it particularly egregious given said person was basically defending her as a woman even while criticising her as a politician and public figure.
Same here, with a little overtime here and there when strictly necessary
That’s right, my bad
Don’t worry, humans are space orcs
