I read that Palahniuk prefers the ending in the movie.

Isn't the book super pro-fascism?

Maybe learn about something before you comment on it?

Bungie won’t say how much Marathon will cost, but it will be a ‘premium title’ in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca
[–] Gamoc@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

What a manipulative headline. By premium, they mean it won't be free to play, and leaving the fact that they also said it won't be full priced out of the headline makes it clickbait. Fuck that awful website.

Premium in this context means it'll cost money. Not full priced means it won't be £70.

Single player campaigns are literally the best type of games. Fomo bullshit, constant nagging to buy stuff, and relying on internet dickheads for the experience and hoping they won't just grief or insult everyone the whole time is awful.

I actually didn't mention my preference of web browser, I just commented on how obviously stupid you were being due to your being unable to decipher pretty simple comments. Interesting assumption to make though.

PS5 Pro sales ‘have fallen behind PS4 Pro in the US in c/games@lemmy.world

Good. There were like six PS5 only games when they released it so I hope it does terribly - if you've bought one, you're an idiot.

I just find the powers to be incredibly boring, except for Mr Fantastic, whose power is instead ridiculous and impossible to take seriously.

FIFA is worse, are you kidding? Obviously, demonstrably worse. When in doubt, err on the side of the company that takes bribes from corrupt governments to decide where their event will be, so that government enrich its corrupt members by building a football stadium using literal slaves.

In Android, how do I choose specific sites to go in my new team page and stop it adding useless link? (lemmy.world)
 

I recently switched to Firefox on Android from Chrome for obvious reasons. It's great! Except the new tab page is a piece of shit. I've already disabled all the sponsor rubbish and stuff*, I want to choose specific links to put there and stop it from adding links to random places I happen to visit that I can't get rid of without removing it from my history. Why this behaves like this is beyond me. I should be able to SET my shortcuts, not have to rely on Firefox to hopefully pick the right ones for me and then have to put up with every other one it decides to add or wipe them from my history.

*Why are these options so poor? I don't want recent bookmarks on this page, I want the ones I've used the most, which will have been bookmarked the longest. Recently visited? "Hey do you wanna return to that one Google search from a day ago?" Why!?

Whilst I'm here, can I change tabs to work like Chrome. I.e. currently on Firefox when I'm on the new tab page, and I click a shortcut, it then opens a tab, pressing back goes back to the new tab page but leaves the tab open in the background rather than closing it.

The new tab page should be part of the new tab, hence the name, so when I press back I should still be in that tab, but back to the new tab page, and without any tabs open in the background that I now have to go and close myself. If I don't choose them, next time I go to that site by pressing the shortcut, it'll open the already loaded tab instead, forcing me to refresh it manually and adding a superfluous step for literally no rational reason I can think of. Firefox seems to act like a tab is launched from the new tab page, rather than the new tab page is the first page you see in a new tab.

I hate these behaviours, they don't make sense, so thanks in advance for at least trying to fix them for me.

Filtering languages (lemmy.world)
 

If there a way to filter other languages or something? It's good they're there, but seeing posts from communities that communicate entirely in a language I don't read is basically useless and in tired of filtering eight communities per day only to make little to no difference.
