FIFA and Madden, which are at least XBox and Playstation I believe. Not sure if they are on PC.

Please help! We are doing an Angel tree gift this year for an 11 year old who asked for video games. Unfortunately, nothing indicates the platform, and I've tried and failed to find that out. How best to proceed? We looked at visa gift cards, but it looks like those don't always allow you to add them to your console. Would a GameStop gift card be the best option?

The Shire. I'd just live in my Hobbit hole, eat second breakfasts, and take long walks. Peaceful!

Camera. If I'm buying something that expensive, it better have a great camera.
Durability concerns. If a little speck can ruin the screen, then it's not ready to be a daily driver for me.

What are the center yellow keys? I feel like I need a spider key, but I don't know why.

Knitting, crocheting, embroidery, cross stitch, etc. The work is meditative, and you get in a groove waiting to see what the next row or stitches will look like. Producing an object feels productive, and gives a feeling of accomplishment.
Choose bright colors and fun patterns, and it's a lot of fun. There are patterns for all interests, so don't think this is the realm of only little old ladies. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Amen. And he got screwed from the Reddit api fiasco. If i remember correctly he was on the hook for as much as $250k in refunds because he's had to shut the app down and refund subscribers.
The guy has to make a living, so I don't begrudge him that one bit.

Also a filthy casual refugee. I play practically every day, but I don't make a lot of effort toward leveling. Instead I enjoy exploring, camp building, and whatever events strike me as fun.

Have they announced when it will be available?

You’re right. There are lots of legendary items intended for these builds, and they can be some of the strongest in terms of DPS.

Started Oxenfree. Kinda a point and click mystery adventure. I'm not too far in yet but I'm enjoying the story and humor so far.
Finished Diablo 4 main story and I'm enjoying the sides quests more than the main!
I'm always playing Fallout 76. Having fun with the new quests and events.

Well dang. That’s disappointing. I recently converted to Mac and wanted to take advantage of the integration. I take a ton of pictures though and don’t want a camera that’s sub par. My current is the s22 ultra, so ideally it would be similar quality.
Thanks for your feedback. It gives me something to think about.
Is there a way to pinch to zoom on images? If so, I’m missing it. TIA
I’m considering moving from Android to iPhone, but I read a lot about iPhone images being over processed. What’s your opinion? Am I going to be disappointed in the camera? I did find this thread where one user mentioned it may be the viewer on the iPhone, and that pictures look fine viewed on other devices. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252045269?answerId=254613831022#254613831022 I’m curious to hear opinions. How happy are you with your phone camera?
GrouchyLady 1 year ago • 100%
I am. I really wish the nicer camera came in the smaller phone, but I’m a sucker for a good camera.

Heck yeah! I’ll be living it up on my island in New Horizons. All I have to do is avoid tarantulas, scorpions, and wasps. I got this.
Just started this little shawl, hanging out in the hotel tonight. I love travel knitting. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/018c2b21-eead-4752-9295-ce98b2e0cb15.jpeg)

Try different sorts. Top of day is good for getting different posts, as is new comments.
I think I read that an upgrade of Lemmy off going to change the sort algorithm, so help may be coming.
What is your favorite thing to make with sock yarn, other than socks? I enjoy knitting socks, but I don’t enjoy wearing hand-knitted socks (blasphemy, I know!) Unfortunately, I’m not a big wearer of shawls either, though I will knit one occasionally. I’m looking for ideas for my sock yarn stash. Ideas, patterns, anything welcome.

Most of my writing lives in Ulysses (a Mac application) and gets synced through iCloud. Before I was a Mac person, I tried Scrivener and one or two online novel writing applications. I always keep backups somewhere in the cloud and on at least one computer.
One requirement for me is to have my writing available everywhere I am, so I don’t want it to be tied to one particular device.
Where does yours live, and why?
I’m a huge fan of podcasts, and I’m looking for some good writing-related ones. One of my favorites is Quitcast by Becca Syme. She talks about how techniques don’t work for every writer, and how to find what does work for you.

On Reddit, I often felt I was whispering in a crowded room. What’s the point of no one is likely to see it, read it, or engage? I think that’s one reason I’m more willing to engage on Lemmy.
GrouchyLady 1 year ago • 100%
using Connect for Lemmy on Android, and it’s a great experience. Also using Mlem on iOS in TestFlight, and it has been good as well. I also use the browser version if the app is being flaky.

I want a smaller phone, without sacrificing on the camera. I have an S22 ultra and the camera is great, but I can't use it one-handed.

Why would she (or anyone) buy a game without making sure their device can play it? Sure, it would be great if it were available on the Mac, but as a Mac owner, I would know to check that first. I don't blame her for wanting it to be available, but I read that she's asking for a refund because it won't work. If the average everyday buyer wouldn't get a refund, then she shouldn't either.

You would be devastated, but that doesn't mean everyone would react the same as you would. Your wife will be a better judge of her father's temperament, and ultimately, it's her decision. It seems like you're very focused on convincing her that your way is the "right" way to go about this. I'd encourage you to step back and realize that both paths have potential for harming their relationship. This should be your wife's to handle.

I like it. I especially like the solitary house in the distance.
Does anyone have data on the number of Lemmy users currently? I saw Lemmy.world has about 12k now (yay!), but I was wondering if there are any estimates regarding the increase from the Reddit exodus.
Is anyone else looking forward to the new Atlantic City expansion? I wasn't a huge fan of the Pitt, so I'm hoping this one is more up my alley.
