He gave the children of HIV positive fathers, conceived via in vitro fertilization, resistance to HIV. I don't think it's as bad as everyone suspects. I'm not sure children conceived the normal way would have survived.

Prince of Persia: the Lost Crown was probably the best Metroidvania I've ever played. A lot of critics agree.

Ubisoft dismantled their team after they didn't meet sales expectations.

The game itself was amazing and made its way onto a lot of Game of the Year lists. If it underperformed, it was either a failure of their marketing department, or a failure to set realistic sales goals.

It's just highly dependent on who is on the panel that night. The Weird Al, Drew Carey, and Thomas Lennon episode was hilarious.

This is the developer's website. It's not an SNES ROM and it's perfectly legal to download. I believe they made it in RPGMaker.

Honestly, Lemmy is the wrong one here. Red/orange for up and blue for down follows the nomenclature for raising and lowering temperature. I'm guessing they changed it to just be different from Reddit.

The guy links to so many controlled, double-blind experiments. It's not like he is just making wild health claims out of nowhere. Why do you think he's a quack?

I wouldn't say its FOMO, I think most people just had higher hopes for it as a direct Twitter replacement instead of the cesspool of reposters, uninteresting celebs, and wylin' out social media managers that it serves up in its feed. I don't mind Meta, I don't mind that they want to eventually federate, I just wish the feed wasn't pure trash.

It's a little smaller scale, but... I've been a mid-westerner my whole life. I stopped calling soda "pop" around 10 years ago. It just doesn't sound right to me anymore.
