I can only do a round or two before the particle effects hurt my eyes too much to continue. The new Among US DLC is really bad for that because you can get so many so early, and then extend for over an hour past the thirty minute mark. (That’s about when I got bored and tried to do everything I could so the red deaths would kill me, so I don’t know how long it would have gone).

EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•In what ways are people today being convinced to spend money beyond their means?English21·2 years agoSome folks don’t have access to fresh groceries like that. Food deserts are a major issue in the states.
EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Hogwarts Legacy has officially cleared Zelda as 2023's best-selling game worldwideEnglish124·2 years agoHonestly it was just a good game. I saw it attracting both Potterheads and non-Potterheads. (I would not consider myself a Potterhead).
Does it have a bunch of replay value? Not really (neither do a lot of games). But man, that initial playthrough was just really good. It also looks like I clocked 113 hours on the game, so that’s a pretty decent return to me.
Also, despite the source material and the author, it had a lot of very inclusive elements, which were a nice touch.

Edit: Also, why Velveeta instead of just adding some sodium citrate and using all real cheese?
EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•McDonald's is promising 'attention to affordability' after the price of Big Mac meals hits $18English104·2 years agoThe original comment said they took their family to Burger King and then you made up that they had it delivered and that was why it cost what it did.
I’m not sure why you decided to make that up when it didn’t fit the comment, nor why you expected a full itemized list in a copy to price compare against, but ok.

EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Two-thirds of Canadian and American renters are in unaffordable housing situationsEnglish31·2 years agoI know some landlords in a nice area. They didn’t raise rent on their renters because they were nice folks. Kept the house around $800 for them.
The renters died and they wanted to re-rent, so they looked at the prices in the area and set rent at $1200+.
Note: the $800/month paid all of the bills, upkeep, plus some to pocket. So now it’s $400+ in their pockets. It’s just price gouging at this point.

EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where are the good political songs?English221·2 years agoWell, NPR did an entire article of 20 protest songs that came out in 2020. Looks like they might have made a Spotify playlist of them at one point too.
Here are 30 protest albums that came out in the first half of 2022
Here are 50 protest songs from 2023.
These are just results from pretty simple Google searches. ‘protest songs year’.
EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto Australia@aussie.zone•Expensive school uniforms don't make kids better at maths, so why are schools so focused on them?English13·2 years agoI also went to a public school. Kids were definitely singled out for the brands and perceived value of the clothes they wore. There was definitely a pressure to keep up with the latest trends and styles, including those at other schools around the city.
EssentialCoffee@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•TikTok sounds go silent as songs disappear from appEnglish1·2 years agoI read your comment and was trying to figure out why people were listening to an 8 year old Korean song, but realized you’re probably talking about something else.
