I’m sure some middle class people can afford to go to burning man. But you’re being wilfully ignorant if you think burning man isn’t catered to the rich. It’s almost purely a status symbol event. It’s definitely where people go to show off their lavish wealth and take pictures for Instagram. I’m pretty sure if they took a survey 80%+ would be wealthy people.

I’m middle class, and I’m spending a couple hundred dollars on my holiday this week, I almost can’t fathom spending thousands living in a tent in a desert.

But you’re right, the middle class has been eroded. What was considered middle class in 1970 would be rich today. That’s just because most people are worse off financially.

If you’re spending upwards of $1000 on a few days you’re probably rich.

It definitely depends on the game, I’m perfectly happy with a game that has a story to tell, and tells it well. Not everything needs to have branching options and 50+ hour playtime. Some of the best stories I’ve played are short and railroady, WaW and BO1 campaing’s are fantastically interesting and you don’t make a single choice in them.

Regulations are probably tighter outside China, can’t slap together a skyscraper in 3 months that’ll fall apart in a year like China can.

I recently learnt that it just auto accepts them so I stopped using, ublock has settings to actually block cookies which seems to work well, more tricky to enable though.

It’s very specific but I’d love an auto-skip intro add on for Plex like I have for Netflix.

First you have to install the revanced manager onto your phone.

Then uninstall the play store Reddit app if you still have it. And install a version of Reddit from here I believe you want a bundled version but it’ll tell you if that’s wrong when you try patch it with revanced.

Finally open the revance manager and find Reddit, click the patches you want - it’s quite limited still and you’ll probably only want to select the remove ads patch but have a read, there might be 2 or 3 you want. If there’s an error try downloading a slightly older Reddit apk.

Guys, I’ve gone back. Turns out you can get Reddit revanced and remove the ads/promoted posts so I’m fine with the Reddit app now. I’m kinda using both but there’s just so much more content on Reddit.

Pollute the moon all you want, better than earth.

Bit late to the party, but either Mortal Engines, the Young James Bond series, or Michelle Paver’s Chroncal’s of Ancient Darkness. They were all very engaging and transformative to a young me.

I probably remember parts of Young James bond the best, there’s parts about leeches that really stuck with me. I can still remember Mortal Engines as a whole in great detail, the concept and descriptions of the city chases are fantastic.

Hell, I’ve had a £100 phone for 3 years already and it’s absolutely fine. I’ve noticed a little battery degregation but it still lasts a whole day. Plus a cheap batter change will make it last year’s more. I can’t understand why anyone would still sing those contracts for a new phone every 2 years.

Had they every met before? If cats grow up together of course they’ll be nicer/more familiar.

I just check 1337x’s trending torrents for movies and TV most days when I turn my computer on. Works well enough for me unless it’s a much smaller show. I didn’t notice What We do in the Shadows was back for 3 weeks because not enough people DL it for it to be in the top 100.

Unfortunately, that’s really not how it works. The masses don’t care. Just like Netflix profits increased after the crackdown, most people just use the Reddit app and don’t give a fuck.

Tbh, with how small lemmy is, it’s really not got much draw for most people. I still miss the long conversations and multiple comments. I’ve only seen like 50 comments on here at best.

How is 3 buttons too complicated?

I’ve only got a out 1.5tb but if I ditched Netflix I’d need to download 10+ shows with hundreds of episodes. I’ve already got a few 6+ season shows on my Plex but it’s mostly 1-2 season newer shows because everything has segregated so much in the past few years. If you don’t have Disney+ and want to see all the marvel shit, it’s adding up quick. It’s not like I’m rewatching all this stuff, I have 300 movies and rewatch one or two maybe once a year. I just keep everything because it’s not very expensive to me. If I need more space I’ll drop £100 and have storage for the next 5+ years.

Then there’s the people who download 25gb 4k movies and shit, I will occasionally but I don’t like to do it.

I sub for the skip intros alone, turns out it affects everyone who watches on your server which is great.

I don’t really utilise any other aspects of Plex Pass but £4 isn’t much to me and Plex is insanely useful to me.

Anyone who would’ve left Reddit has already done so, they may be a small increase when Boost/sync becomes available but I doubt we’ll see much growth. No one has ever heard of Lemmy.

Come on, it was a pretty fun first in a FRANCHISE.

Dafuq are they smoking over there? We’re going to get some very shit games. And I was skeptically excited for their Star Wars and Avatar games.

Seems like it’s gonna be an anime :/

Still waiting on that new adult cartoon I can sink my teeth into.
