No, quite the opposite. If sexual pleasure is the only thing going great in a couple, and that the joy of being with each other isn't enough for someone to put a condom, one should probably reconsider if said relationship is still a loving one.

I'd prefer an asexual relationship with someone I deeply love to a very gratifying sex life.

I not saying that sex shouldn't be enjoyable, but that f a condom is enough to ruin sex for a guy... Kinda show how much love there is in such relationship. Having a little barrier shouldn't ever bother someone if there is truly love in that relationship.

I seriously can't understand those who don't use condoms by default. No contraceptive is 100% foolproof, so using a backup is always a good thing.

And seriously, if the friction is the only thing that make you enjoy sex, and not with whom you have sex with, you seriously should reconsider your relationship.

Édit : to clarify, I'm not saying that sexual gratification is a bad thing, just that it shouldn't be the only mean of gratification.
Doing it with someone one love is as gratifying as doing if for pure sexual pleasure, if not more, so if having a condom (which some might find uncomfortable) is enough to ruin sex for a guy... Maybe that relationship has more to do with pleasure than genuine love.

Depending on how said shit is done, could be better than Minecrft.

Or check your encoding. Happened to me. 😅

There is one job that does what archeologist does in films: software engineers.

You have to decipher ancient languages, riddles, and have to avoid traps all the times.
Sure, you don't go into deep jungle, but you sometimes get to dive into the deep web to find traces of documentations to help resolve a specific case.

Firefox vertical tabs are better IMO. At least you can close them when minimized, which Edge cannot.

I never got an issue with copilot, at least in Visual Studio (only one I use).

Make repetitive tasks like unit test a breeze. And very useful for debugging issues with tools like Entity Framework.

I switched to full Linux on my personal hardware though. I only use Windows for work.

By being sorry to not being one, aren't you already half Canadian? 😆

The idea of that webcomic was basically "what if god was just a drunk overpowered loser who created things out of drunk stupor". That's but an episode of it, so without the context it is hard to understand.

LED do not have a 100% efficiency, and do produce waste heat. A lot less than an incandescence one, sure, but enough for that answer to be valid.
Well, maybe you'd better wait 10min instead of one, to make sure the led lightbulb heats enough, but still...

Same here, the Steam Deck changed my life 😆. Less AAA, more AA and indie games, especially at work.

 

Hi friends,

There was many threads lately on that topic, and despite attempts at making all those threads follow the community rules, looks like it will be better to make a megathread in order to avoid drowning other topics under the constant updates about this.

You find bellow multiple sections, containing as much info as possible on every aspect of this topic, including the latest news (as well as older ones), and how to participate in fighting it (if you wish to).

The moderation, even if we do have our own personal opinion on the topic, will try to stay as neutral as possible, which mean all opinion (for or against) are welcome, as long as it respect the rules, especially rule 2.

As a special exception to rule 4, memes are welcome in the comment section, as I saw some good ones in various other topics, as soon as they respect rule 2.

"We got together with Ross Scott of Accursed Farms to discuss the Stop Killing Games initiative that he is presently spearheading. The Stop Killing Games initiative aims to preserve games in a reasonably playable state even after the game's publishers and/or developers abandon it, helping ensure consumers keep some level of what they have paid for rather than having all access revoked and the game destroyed."

Hi everyone.

It has been a while since last community update, as the old moderation team mostly vanished, and I was for a while the only moderator still active. A lot happened since then, and it is time to get the community back running at optimal pace.

New moderators

First, I'd like to welcome two new (temporary) moderator, that will help me moderating while we reform the community and examine permanent moderator applications.

  • u/JonsJava : You may already know him as the moderator of !gaming@lemmy.world, a video game focused community
  • u/fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com (and its moderation alt, فكسومت مدمر العوالم, aka u/modfxomt)

If you wish to help moderate this community, feel free to PM me in order to candidate to be a moderator for this community.

Sidebar rewrite

I took some time to rewrite the sidebar to better reflect the community evolution.

I added two new section:

  1. "Authorized Regular Threads", which are allowed to be post on a regular basis as long as they respect the rules
  2. "Related communities", which contains links to other games related communities. Feel free to PM me to add more of them

I also added links to a git repo to each rule, which point to the current ruleset. Currently all of them points to the same root anchor, but in the near future, every rule will point to their specific section. This will allow to give a lot more detail, as well as examples, without polluting the sidebar.

Community contribution

As a community, I'd like to encourage users to participate in the community. We are not meant to be monolithic, like Reddit was, and we'd like to offer the community the way to better itself, according to its own rules, not some corporate greedy interest.

As such, I'd like to offer you all way to make it your own, with a more democratic approach to moderation. In the following weeks, I'll post multiple topics about it, from which we will collectively amend our rules to better fit its collectively defined purpose.

This will be done in multiple steps :

  1. First, we will open a discutions on current rules, in which we will be able to discuss about them, suggest improvements, and maybe create new rules
  2. The rules will be then internally rewritten in order to respect the community wish while still following LW rules
  3. The new rules will be individually put to vote. If the total is positive, the rule is adopted, if not, the rule will be bought back in a new discussions/amendment topic, until it reach consensus

Best regards,

u/Dremor

Edit 1 : I continued my work on the sidebar, feel free to give me your feedback on it.
