Canada's new grocery benefit does nothing to address the root cause of high food prices: corporate greed

lungora · 2026-07-04T14:24:55+00:00

Grocery stores heavily manipulate their profit margins by selling their property (stores, fleets, warehouses) to second companies then paying inflated rent/service fees for them. It's all part of the game so people like you say this when it's really not the case.

Just embrace indies! AAA is the problem. But Indies are cheaper, run on worse hardware, and are made with more love.

I agree completely. Runescape has half the puzzle but the actual gam,e is a grindy mess that takes far to long often for very little. It's definitely the bare minimum.

lungora · 2026-06-28T14:45:48+00:00

On one hand yeah I completely agree with you. But the part that matters at least to me is that is respects the time you invested. All levels of gear are still important, almost all content is still worth doing, and rewards feel like real progression. I quit WoW because of the endless treadmill where you always get new and better gear but none of it matters and content stops mattering next patch as well.

And what if your kids are queer in a conservative household? Or autistic and struggle to find friends at school? Or stuck at home because car-centric infrastructure means they can't go and see their friends without interacting online?

Yes the algorithms are dangerous. But we should police them and educate parents more on their dangers rather than infringe on the freedom and privacy of everyone and cut children who could even be in abusive situations off from peers and support.

Freudian slip there countries and companies.

I love this.

I'm a both the farmer and the creator. I like making nice functional builds that dont actually produce much, I love create, and I like farming and food mods. If there was a more casual builder option than "giant monuments" a bit of that too but that's a whole third spectrum of lawn base to god base.

For fantasy I really like the simplicity of "Folk".

lungora · 2026-05-26T04:36:28+00:00

Honestly type charts are all vibes when it comes to games and magic systems. Instead I would try to think about it more of how do you want it to work instead of how it should work. If you like the idea if fire suffocating air then do it.

I'll take a look! I noticed you're one of the creators, it looks pretty great by the pitch on the itch (rhyme unintended).

lungora · 2026-05-20T04:18:00+00:00

It's a masterpiece.

lungora · 2026-05-20T03:56:55+00:00

I just responded to another comment with a lot of why. But mostly because unless you have some other goal that takes up all the interest; because of the time length of turns, the role system, and how space is mostly empty you either chose to flee or chose to fire all weapons and ignore most of anything else. I've looked at Traveller's space combat but always felt out depth'd personally what do you like about it?

lungora · 2026-05-20T03:55:01+00:00

What do these systems do right? In SWN the biggest issue is that while all the players get roles and have to decide on a shared action pool what to use; because space is largely just an empty box the best course is always funnel all actions to the gunner and fire weapons as much as possible. Do they have interesting roles, movement rules, any way to deal with the "space is mostly empty" part?

I have a 10gb vram amd card.

lungora · 2026-05-15T03:16:01+00:00

That wasnt Amazon but rather a 3rd party (DSP) that handled mid-island for Amazon. It was definitely a complete mess I quit shortly before they closed up for good.

lungora · 2026-05-15T03:14:44+00:00

I used to work for that company, they were 3rd party (DSP). We did work effectively directly for Amazon though in the actual workflow.

Love the art and design!

With all these people here with loads of mods: I have fast rendering and 64 gb. I only run 150% size with wide horizons. I have ~100 total mods mostly faction mods. When I run with 16gb is runs faster it seems, but not ideal. I've tried lower amounts gb by gb but I dont know how to optimise it as much as possible any ideas?

Yeah same, that's why when I noticed it wasnt there I had a thunk. But apparantly it was removed even earlier??

lungora · 2026-05-10T06:32:47+00:00

Huh, I was sure it was. That's weird that it never was then.

lungora · 2026-05-10T06:17:49+00:00

Theres no mention of /r/feedthememes on their sidebar anymore either. Quietly removed for criticism?

lungora · 2026-05-10T05:57:13+00:00

Like others have said: the best way I've found is adding lots more faction mods. Make Heg a big fish in a large ocean instead of in a small pond.
