Ted Cruz rages against non-existent Biden beer limit in viral clip
Last I checked it was conservative states that had dry counties and locked-up alcohol sections in grocery stores on Sundays.

The only thing I miss from r*****
I miss niche communities with dozens of posts each day. I go to communities here and see a 0 comment post from two months ago...
Don't want to return to reddit but it's harsh man.

So excited for the Cybertruck
I finally saw one and was shocked at how stupid it looks. It's like Elon had a grudge with babyproofed corners.

How many people actually dropped Reddit for Lemmy?

I was bitter about RiF but it didn't really sink in that I was not returning until I realized it was all just in bad faith. No point in going back somewhere that doesn't respect third-party apps or its own users. All the developments since then have made that very clear.

Helldivers 2 Players Express Frustration On Steam As It Will Soon Require A PSN Account
People have been remarking that numerous countries are unable to join PSN and this will lock them out of the game. But can someone explain to me how that could be true? Are they literally not on the drop-down menu for selecting your country?

Transphobes are doxxing Stardew Valley fans after they asked the game developer for pronouns
"I truly do not care if ConcernedApe speaks on pronouns in the game any more,” one user said. “I want [him] to condemn the transphobia and violence against the trans members of the community.”
How in the hell is this his responsibility? We have to prove our allegiances now? If I ever become a game dev I'm keeping my head down.

Republicans should consider themselves lucky. At least they can predict insane things that will never happen. We could predict they'll try to do something batshit bonkers and instead it'll actually happen.

I have 250+ hours in this game and i just realized you can just USE the SHOVEL if you fail the Survival check.

That's the only reason I tried the shovel. I started using Scratch more and figured there had to be a way to reveal what he's pointing at if you fail.

‘It’s quite soul-destroying’: how we fell out of love with dating apps
I really loved OkCupid back before they sold out. They would share a lot of interesting data on their blog posts, and seemed genuinely interested in making successful matchups based on how your profile was presented to others. It was fun to be on there and didn't feel like you were just being presented for "dateable" you were if you didn't want to be.
I also met my wife on OkCupid, but that was just before the site really took a nosedive. Pretty annoyed they deleted my account without warning, so the first message she ever sent me is gone forever.

Biden campaign plans first big push - skewer the Republican debate

I think most Democrats would agree with you, but we can get back to actual political discourse after we prevent a literal Russian asset from attempting to remove the right to have discourse at all.

You’ll be back…
It's a bit disappointing that most of the communities for specific content are so inactive on here, but I still prefer it to the types of banal, waste-of-time, repetitive content and comments that plague reddit and have caused my eyes to roll in a tailspin.
Do I really have to choose one or the other, though?

Mike Pence not endorsing Donald Trump
It's mildly interesting to consider how many people Trump has near-literally shat on just for them to open their mouths and say yes please after. Why not Pence? This can't be a spine, right?

Cyberpunk's storytelling makes Starfield seem ancient
Bethesda has put themselves in an awkward spot by promoting niche and deep RPG mechanics for so long, and then becoming such a AAA developer with entire keynotes dedicated to previewing them that they no longer want to risk making deeper complex mechanics because they're scared of "confusing" the base audience.
I want to say they need to take Starfield as a wakeup call, in comparison to games like BG3. But they don't need to, because Gamepass numbers are practically imaginary sales numbers, and we're just going to hear about how well it sold for the next half-decade.

What is a subreddit you wish had a presense on Lemmy?
/bonehurtingjuice exists on here, but it's like 1 post a month instead of an endless stream of stupid bullshit humor that hits just right.
I also miss being on a platform that has the community for whatever game I might be playing at the moment, from popular ones to niche-as-fuck. Even CDDA's subreddit is still more active on reddit than Lemmy.

Taking back "don't be evil" is around when I stopped liking Google a lot, but I do still tend to find that Google's products are the only ones that follow my way of logical thinking,, especially in options and menus, if that makes sense. Samsung frequently doesn't have stuff where I expect to find it... Sony's menus are nonsensical... Nintendo is constantly missing settings... Microsoft used to be better, but hides relatively basic shit in the name of "accessibility" nowadays... Apple's entire ecosystem is a joke, in my opinion...
Google's menus and apps just make sense to me and are almost always where I look for them. They tend to include most options for things I would want to turn off or on. Usually if you are in a place where you'd want a search bar, there's a search bar. Android is still very customizable using third-party apps, instead of just preventing them from working altogether and making you use it their way. I like all that.
