One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that in terms of marketing, reddit has a disproportionately high level of return in interaction relative to its size, while Twitter has traditionally had a low level of return relative to its size.

For some reason, comments on reddit has always been viewed as more trustworthy relative to other social media platform, despite reddit or’s general reputation for being confidently incorrect on many subjects.

There are certain people whose entire career was made by their reddit posts, yet, it was always odd to me that reddit never managed to effectively capitalize on this other than making their platform worse with every update.

Testing out this theory has been interesting.

This is obviously a deepfake if I ever seen one: if this is a really a visitor centre, then why isn’t it located in the centre of the crater?

You probably never heard of it, but I shitpost on this obscure technology forum called Lemonworld or something on things I would never admit to in public.

It’s great, I’m something of a celebrity over there.

Some of us are 30 year old women, than you very much.

The Joker.

I really don’t get the obsession with overusing the Joker when most of Barman’s other rogue gallery members are much more interesting. The worst of it is during “The Batman Who Laughs”, because now you have both the regular Joker and “what if Batman became Joker” running around. And then, as if it couldn’t get any more ridiculous,

And I think most people will agree by now that Harley Quinn is a lot better of a character after she’s done being Joker’s sidekick.

That’s the reason most big name actors have their own production companies to work on their own movies, you have way more control over your own role compared to being just another actor on set.

In any case, I think the audience still recognize great performances by individual actors even if the end product is badly reviewed or didn’t do well at the box office, and there are lessons to be learned from the “Suicide Squad” and “Amsterdam” and “Babylon” until you finally get a “Barbie” against all expectations.

I hope he finds his own “Barbie” too.

I just play her on TV.

Yay

Maybe she’s busy working and can’t spend as much time messing with tech friends on social media or something.

… Are they ripping off the “Suicide Squad” trailer?

That’s not exactly a promising sign for the game.

(Also, identity theft is not a joke, Bioware!)

It is clearly July 21st, as shown on the banner of this community.

It’s true, I’ve watched this documentary about this woman in her twenties who dumped Leo after being in an dysfunctional relationship with him.

I think it’s called “The Wolf of Wall Street” or something.

I mean, there probably are celebs out there, but under pseudonyms.

Hypothetically speaking, if a famous person did run around Lemmy under their real name and openly promoting their work here, who is going to believe them? 🙂

I hope Bioware go back to their roots and take more inspiration from DA:O and BG3 instead of DA:I and go back to more tactical and less action-y gameplay. The overwhelming success of Baldur’s Gate 3 proves there is a market for traditional CRPG, especially coming from the the studio that made the first two Baldur’s Gate.

Also, less Ubisoft/Skyrim-esquelarge empty open world and more carefully crafted maps with emphasis on choices. DA:I wasn’t a bad game, but if Bioware releases another DA:I in 2024 it will definitely be compared unfavorably to Bg3.

Way ahead of you on that.

There is always risks in going to a new social platform, but also the reward for being an early adopter is also great if the platform gets big, and I’d say the Barbie promotion here last year overall went pretty well.

And it comes in pink!

On the other hand, all these AI errors by Google have made for some great memes recently.

Windows 11. Because Windows 7 ate Windows 9.

Yay
