But can't you do that with a scope over the iron site that is not full screen and not blurring the peripheral around the scope on the center? But as a 90s/00s gamer, I did love silent scope on arcades. I get what you mean.

The picture in picture scope is a weird design choice. I remember old delta force games, after moving on to rainbow six, ghost recon, or operation flashpoint, not sure why you would go back to that for scopes...

I'm not a PS layout kind of person. I looked at the more Xbox designed ones, but don't folks say the ergonomics aren't great? They have yours wrists or hands almost at parallel angles instead of a more open position based on the grip design? I almost went

Didn't a Japanese company make a controller with native steam input? Is that controller any good? The thing with 8bitdo and the like is you can't map back paddles to unique inputs via steam and they only can duplicate face buttons by programming the controller iirc.

I have a gulikit kk3, but I don't love the dongle and don't love the lack of native steam controller configuration for back paddles. Other than that, the hardware has been good for me.

The bullshit that gets upvoted/downvoted here, does not get that on reddit. It's really weird to see some of the cultural differences between the two platforms in terms of user base.

We drug animals for flights all the time, it’s practically a requirement. Until the age of at least 5, kids are essentially animals with just as little self-control

Not only do I think it’s ok to give them something that would help them sleep through it, I think it should be mandatory.

I don't think this level of bullshit would fly in the reddit equivalent of r/worldnews

You see on Lemmy, it's okay to say children are "essentially animals", unless it's in the context of Israel referring to infants in Gaza as essentially animals. The fucking crazy shit that gets upvoted in Lemmy vs reddit is weird. It's like a giant reading group of edgy undergrads in here most of the time.

At literally every point of modern history, a reduction in the amount of humans was beneficial for the vast amount of humans in the long run.

Like, even the Black Death led to reduced wealth inequality and the beginnings of workers rights.

I don't see how someone can claim that the mass death of people is simultaneously beneficial to that people.

There's a difference in reduction of humans by events that cause death at large scale vs decline in rates of reproduction. Clearly catostrophic death is being used as an example of "a reduction in the amount of humans."

Did you read the comment I responded to saying that the black death was good because a lot people died and as a result created a better labor market? That's saying death is a good thing to cull surplus labor.

Can't believe we have someone getting so many up votes for saying that the black plague was a good thing? Would you say that about all the deaths during COVID? This upvoted edgelord callousness is nuts.

[-] Copernican@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah. I never understood why DEI required a discreet team. It seems like it should just be a function, commitment, and initiative of HR.

The kind of people that can't use an always online connected printer. But seriously, for some professions and shift to work from home during covid kind of made printers in a home more common again.

Cable is dead. Long live the cable bundle. Curious to see the pricing and if the bundle only includes ad tiered options.

To have legitimacy, international justice must be applied fairly and evenly.

I've sometimes gotten confused switching between the web interface and sync app because the Sync app follows Reddit style with orange for upvote and blue for down, whereas Lemmy is blue for up and orange for down. But now I'm confused since there are 2 sync logos with different up/down colors. Will future release change the Sync colors to align with Lemmy style for up/down votes?

(also, undoing that down vote, just wanted to snap pic of the web ui!)

A Times investigation uncovered new details showing a pattern of rape, mutilation and extreme brutality against women in the attacks on Israel.

Tuesday, Gaza’s health ministry, controlled by Hamas, blamed Israel for an explosion at Al-Ahli Hospital and said hundreds died in an airstrike. That claim led to protests across the region and the cancellation of President Biden's scheduled summit in Jordan. But the U.S. and Israeli Defense Forces say the cause was a Palestinian rocket. Nick Schifrin examines what we know with Marc Garalasco.
