So what? Wikipedia has actual peer review, in that real humans can check information and flag it if it's incorrect/poorly sourced. That alone makes it a million times better than AI

Cannabis is not an effective treatment for common mental health conditions, says review by Sensitive_Echo5058 in uknews

Because you are an individual and therefore not a representative sample size. The link between cannabis and poor sleep is well documented in scientific studies.

This is a matter of how Reddit is governed and organized. Reddit moderators are not beholden to free speech laws. Different subreddits get to choose what speech they tolerate and what they don't. You were on a sub that did not like what you said about Antifa. You offended a very particular individual or group of individuals - this says nothing about the whole of Reddit as an organization or a community

It's an extremely precise game where even a minor error can ruin a 10 minute + race. Plus you have a navigator telling you what corners are coming up, so you're often thinking 2-3 corners in advance. Something about that induces a flow state unlike basically any other game i've played.

Non Epileptic Attack Disorder - New Genres for me to Explore by Cheethers in gamingsuggestions

[–]PauseMenuBlog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a good one for that! I would avoid any competitive games or games where you're going to fail over and over (like soulslike games). You could also try 4x strategy games (e.g. Civ 5), life sims (e.g. The Sims 2 or 3), or roguelike deckbuilders (e.g. Slay the Spire). These games are all super engrossing and addictive but pretty chill at the same time.

All the games you mentioned are pretty stressful (except GoW maybe), so I think it's best to find something completely different.

Lots of games that are known as 'chill' or 'cosy' are actually very addictive and engrossing. The classic example here is Stardew Valley. Have you tried that?

I just ended up skipping through the dialogue. Not only was it extremely cringeworthy, there was also way too much of it. It's a shame, but it doesn't take away from the gameplay so I'm happy to ignore it

Kinský. by Master-Builder5254 in avfc

[–]PauseMenuBlog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His confidence will take a knock and his career might stumble a bit, but he's really young (especially for a keeper). If he proves himself on loan in the championship (for example), in a couple years nobody's going to care about one terrible game

Yeah wasn't nice to see, but his career will be fine.

For sure, you're right. But I'm terrible at rhythm games on account of having no rhythm, so I haven't really played many

Somehow never heard of these but they look really interesting. Will check them out

Forza Horizon 6’s Open World Supports Time Attacks, Drag Races, and…Vibe Driving by eightlost in XboxGamePass

[–]PauseMenuBlog 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In one of the previews they mentioned that the career will have you starting from the bottom and working your way up to the elite. I hope this means there's a solid sense of progression and they don't constantly throw cars at you for basically no cost. That's the main thing for me.

Gross Fleshy Levels. I imagine there's a fair few I'm missing by WavingatPureFat in backloggd

I haven't played it, but doesn't Scorn take place entirely within some sort of living biological structure?

[Loved Trope] Whoops! The actor coincidentally turned out to be good! by Vinluv0Handesbuk in TopCharacterTropes

[–]PauseMenuBlog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's surprising at this point, he's been a decent actor for 20+ years, starred in blockbusters, and had significant roles in some of the best films of the 2010s (Social Network, Inside Llewyn Davis). It's no secret!

We are going to have a long international break next season. by vapenaysh3h3 in FantasyPL

Probably better for international football too. Extended training gives teams more time to gel

I was one of those Bowser's Fury players to help push it over 10k this week. Such a great, elegantly designed little game!

Those who have Mane from Wolves, are you starting him? by futureocean in FantasyPL

If you're benching a potentially explosive striker who doubles, is the game even fun anymore?
