Bezos was on social media asking, “Who’d you pick as the next Bond?”. Suggestions included Tom Cruise, Elon Musk and Top Gear’s James May.

I don’t know what’s more confusing, that people gave those answers or that the telegraph posted them. Though a disturbing part of me would want it to be Elon just so all his dick riders could watch the entire world shit on their fat, man-child lord jiggling on screen, role playing as a British secret agent.

Wouldn’t mind May as long as it was a comedy the whole time without telling him. That and the last scene ends with someone calling him a pillock off screen.

Can lemmy just autoban new accounts that post links already.

Right, still might be an idea to restrict screen time. Also might be an idea to talk about boundaries. Can’t be expected to be at your best parenting if you’re being woken up all hours of the morning. Tell him Elon will steal his eyeballs.

If your kid is young enough to ask to sleep in your room they probably shouldn’t have a phone. Or least set parental restrictions to stop usage at 2:30 in the morning imo.

Agreed. I was surprised at how bad it was, which was a bummer for two reasons. Firstly, it was a pretty enjoyable game at times especially with mates. Secondly, there were plenty of players that went out of their way to counter it and be decent but sadly they were the minority.

It’s nothing to do with W/L it’s because it fucks your team mates (and essentially everyone else, who now are devoid of a proper match) in RL. One of the many reasons I never stuck by RL was other players. People would so frequently just trash talk you when you’re learning and then fuck off out of the match, leaving you to get rolled by two players. These players would frequently be worse too. At least if you get rolled with a full team, you’ll probably learn something.

RL and games with low team player counts I 100% understand it for. It’s a punishment for selfish players. In a match with bots less so but I guess if you’re doing bad enough to be matched with bots they probably want to to stay and learn to play.

No offence but that’s shortsighted to be generous. I feel like half of lemmy will carry on about social media being cancer, the frequent articles citing negative effects of SM on mental health and the fact that multiple social media companies are accused of propagating misinformation (Zuckerberg face sure is in lemmy a lot lately for some reason). Like Zuck has all but greenlit harassing lgbt+ people on FB and the SM ban is to stop gay kids finding a community? Please. Corporate SM is a blight and before someone says lemmy/reddit check the mod logs or the fact that lemmy only got CSAM under control relatively recently before suggesting it’s fine for kids.

“QPS with PT” 8pm

Assuming that means what I think it means I’m going to have to remember to refrain from asking my paramedic mates how work is going. One of them told me her tales about some music festival she worked at. We’re lucky to have such patient professionals that’s for sure.
