The Point of View Gun, conveniently, does precisely what it's name suggests. That is, if you point it at someone and pull the trigger, they instantly see things from your point of view.

Are there (hidden) restrictions on Display Names?

Shouldn't be an issue with contains, just exact matches.

If I'm remembering correctly one of the limits is that you can't have a name that matches a community name on the same instance. This makes it so that mastodon users can post to a community by tagging the community as if it were another user.

what community do i be on that allows text only jokes/memes?

Yes, there's a checkbox when you create/edit a community on Lemmy or Piefed to make it so that only moderators can post to a community. I'm not sure about Kbin/Mbin communities.
Edit: If you want to reach more users (Mastodon users), I would suggest a PieFed community since you can have every post set to have an automatic hashtag applied. Lemmy users won't see the hashtag, so it shouldn't bother them.

In Portal 2 there's a multiplayer mode. It can definitely be used as a weapon when you quickly swap out the portal exit so that your companion falls to their demise.
There are some fun community levels where you can race against a friend and there are all sorts of traps you can trigger/set if you plan it right.

What should I watch tonight?
Maybe The Shannara Chronicles?
Instead being set in the far future of an apocalypse leading to robot animals, it's more of an apocalypse set in the far future leading to Lord of The Rings:

I'm not sure if there are any with that specific ruleset. You're probably better off putting in a new community request with an instance somewhere.

Yeah, I didn't realize it for a while as well. The multiplayer has its own whole storyline of what happened before GLaDOS took control.

Thanks for calling this out. That author has a ton of articles that are all very similar to one another. I updated the link to match the correct article from last week.

Steam Deal: Lodebreaker — 40% off on Steam until November 3
There are no reviews for this product
Well, that looks like a hard pass. From what I can see in the video, it's barely animated and has little to no gameplay.

Is it just me or is reddit getting quieter?
What are the subs you visit the most?
The only one I really visit anymore is a niche sub for /r/starcitizen and it doesn't seem to have declined in activity.

A Resident Evil fan is remaking Zach Cregger's film as a PS1-style survival horror game with fixed camera angles
If anyone is confused as to which film this is about, it's for the 2026 film called "Resident Evil".

Granted, with all the planned obsolescence happening, you could also argue that engineers "knew" what they were doing.

[Technology Connections] Some DVD re-releases got cheapened out in a weird way [17:59]
Additional context from his pinned comment to that video:
I've been away from internet all day and it sounds like I got my hands on a couple of bootleg/counterfeit sets here! That's neat. Love that. I'm going to leave this video up as it is because the overall lesson here remains mostly the same - but I am embarrassed this thought never occurred to me, especially with The Good Place Blu-rays. I honestly thought a Blu-ray release of that show would be niche enough that a run of pressed discs wouldn't be justified and didn't question it. I've not been paying attention to physical media for nearly a decade so I've missed some memos and made one too many assumptions!
