What does it mean to "Shout down a speaker"? What are they speaking about and what is the purpose of shouting at them?

We have re-invented trains for the 500th time. Good job world.

I was trying to romance Lae'zel and was a bit taken aback at how blatant and easy it was. It didn't seem particularly realistic or well done to me. We were basically just traveling companions and then a single dialogue option was enough to initiate romance. I've basically never talked to her before so this seemed rather sudden. Perhaps the games assumes a lot of hidden dialogue that travelers would engage in, but when the rest of the game feels realistic it seems out of place. Maybe she is just the type of person that is really open romantically, but considering others have felt the same way about many of the other characters I suspect this is not the writers intention. Then after having intimate relations it seemed to have no relevance to the story and the character didn't even care that it happened. The intimate scenes themselves were also rather lackluster and didn't show anything explicit. I'm not sure why the character creation had you so vividly pick what type of genitals you wanted if it was irrelevant to the intimacy scenes.

I've been seeing this a lot lately. Lots of bandwagoning going on. It is what it is though. People are fallible and often just follow the herd instead of thinking.

I'm sorry friend. Stopping is not an option. Drown the memories of your past with the memories of the future.

Web pages of today have so much added on nonsense. It's not necessarily data farming, but also the frameworks used to develop the website themselves. Modern websites are basically entire software running in the browser even when it is used to run a simple seemingly static page. The purpose of these frameworks is to make complex things more simple for developers to make, but then people end up using them in situations that might not call for it. I think there is a general belief that since computers keep getting more powerful that it is fine to keep making software bigger and less efficient.

I'll let you know in 2 years when it is on sale for at least 50% off.

For sure. I don't mind moderating on Lemmy because nobody is making any money here. I'm doing something because I want to. However, I'm not going to do something even if I want to if someone else is making money from my efforts and not giving my me fair share. Whatever that may be.

Probably just fools. Working for a corporation that makes money from your work without sharing any of it with them. Nobody should be moderating on Reddit without getting paid.

Moderator rewards program? How much money are they going to be paying them?

What is micromobility? I am unfamiliar with this term.

I wish people wouldn't use Lemmy as a "link aggregator". Instead of posting links to other peoples content how about having an original thought for once. Why is Lemmy acting as the comments section for some other website?
