That's not exactly true, we also watched Krtek and Nu Pogodi in out childhoods, and both nations are considered "glum" (as never smiling) and cynical (and the correlation between being educated and being cynical, sometimes to the point of dark humor), relatively recent urbanisation. Otherwise, yes, of course, things are different, there is almost as much common with Bulgaria or Croatia

his home treated him as honorable and other cultures don't
Not the point of the story, when NPCs get to know who the character is theirs opinion changes
it wasn't because they mistook him for being the kind of person you get to do that to
That is actually almost what happened. If he was not a mage, that story point would change little.
The "mages are slaves" thing is more akin to FF6's "there is no magic in this world", like it is a somewhat big deal that Terra is mage, but game doesn't spend much time there since it is not a point.
Your character is not a slave. (Spoilers limited to promotional materials) Player character is the oldest son of the ruler of one of the major countries in the game world, so a prince. Ability to wield (very specific) magic is quickly explained that some of the nobles of that family can do. He somewhat is a slave at some point, but this is a very brief story moment (tbf at the very beginning, you meet your character as a slave before he goes into childhood memory where he is a prince). When relevant, NPCs do interact with character as with slave, but its rarely relevant. So it is very much a background theme, even if a major one.
If Europeans (in general) love sleeper trains, why are there so little of those? Even in Russia, sleeper trains are still the main and preferred way of transportation between most regional centers (for the majority of travelers I would say it is "default" one), while in the EU most destinations are not even covered by a sleeper. I hope new companies like "European Sleeper" blossom because I personally prefer sleepers very much, but to say "Europeans love those" is untrue, since it is still mostly something exotic.
That is a valid, but still different argument. Exchange rate still exists for average Joe (or Ivan), it isn't North Korea (yet?)
You cant exchange millions of dollars (but tbf you couldn't do that easily in the best times), but people can exchange theirs money into euro and dollar for that rate (realistic limit is $10k/month, but there are legal ways to cricumvent that limit). To say "you cant actually exchange USD to RUB" is untrue.
It has built in package manager now (winget install Mozilla.Firefox would install Firefox on clean Win11 installation).
how do things like the feeds work?
So what actually happens under the hood is when one instance communicates first time with another instance it builds some local cache of that remote instance. Then, when you open "All", you get everything from your local instance + things cached/requested from other instances. Admins can defederate an instance, in which case you would not see anything from it.
Since there's no algorithm is everything from Lemmy.world only going to show up on the popular feed (if I'm on that instance) or can other things like lemmy.ee or whatever also show up?
Everything federated will show up.
And can I comment on posts from a different instance or does that vary per instance?
If federated, you can both see and post both posts and comments on any instance from your home one.
could Lemmy theoretically allow content from those instances to be cross-posted here?
It could. More than that, Mastodon users currently can both subscribe to Lemmy instances and post/comment. It looks kinda weird since they mention post author/community or whomever they answer to in a comment, since they see it as if it looked like Twitter.
Yeah, that makes the most sense to me
In my experience 1/3rd of StB is the 3rd common point of burnout, because relatively nothing happens, Lyse is unbearable and the whole thing is like an exposition without substance (villians do not make sense since the player have already interacted with Ascians, which are obviously the real villians in every circumstance).
Well, StB itself is really just an exposition for wider world, as ARR was for Eorzea. Ascians plotline is obviously the main one and is the centerpiece of ShB and is basically resolved in EW. The exposition is long because the story itself is enourmous.

I use SteelSeries Arctis 9, its station has PlayStation toggle for what I assume PS compatibility. They are wireless, sound is good IMO, but Mic is not that great (usable though). I also like that they connect to my phone via Bluetooth, often use this while watching YouTube/listening podcast waiting for food delivery, courier calls, KDE Connect puts media on pause, I answer "hands free" from the same headset
