We switched to hybrid once covid died down, but the genie was out of the bottle. Most people didn’t want to come back. Since they also implemented a system where people chose what days they were in, it was hard to get proper overlaps. That company is now fully remote and have leased out their offices. As long as the hybrid is thought out, I do think it can work.

    Yeah, that’s why I mentioned common space, since those people would want to be there. Being forced to do hybrid ends up being weird since most of those people don’t want to be there and it doesn’t really let you form bonds as much.

    This is very much based on the industry of course. I’ve formed life long friendships with people from my last job. I just saw one of them I haven’t worked with in 5 years and likewise a few others during halloween. I was in a position to be able to nurture those friendship and workplace dynamics.

    From a societal perspective I think we should be working in common spaces so we can be near people and learn to socialize. We’re losing second and third spaces. Fewer people having children also means less forced interaction and I fear we are heading towards a more isolated society.

    Unfortunately, not everyone would lives close enough to comfortably go into an office, which leaves people burning 2-3hrs of their day just doing that. And all the commuting also impacts the Earth.

    Edit: Adding that I mentioned “common spaces” and I did not mean situations where people are forced to work in toxic environments. I have been lucky to develop many friendships and also help support many relationships that have formed in the past place I worked at. The majority of the people around me were introverts, working around like minded people helped all of us.

    Have you already tried men’s leggings? It’s becoming more popular, at least from a fitness standpoint. Usually they are wearing shorts on top. I’d assume they are more designed to handle men’s “packages”.

    Correct. I’m sort of active on it, but I believe they are sun setting it since it won’t be worked on anymore. It may not be that useful to join ar this point. The activity has died down. It’s a lot of “What are you xing this week” threads now.

    but if the point of Lemmy is to build a web of community-driven sites which will pull people away from the corporatocratic current iteration, we can't do that if we're making people feel unwelcome if they don't conform to our own little narrow wedge of view

    It does sound counter intuitive. I think people on lemmy want those websites to die, but without the traffic coming here.

    The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time – The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct 9.8.2026

     

    Crazy how quickly this movie is making money. This movie should in theory have less draw than No Way Home and people are eating it up. Shows what a good story can do. There is for not at least no Spider-Man fatigue.

    I hope the lesson here is not “just make more Spider-Man” movies.

     

    As we’re heading into the age of digital only downloads and more people start to scavenge for physical media, I was wondering if there is a list out there that catalogues if the game doesn’t need any downloads, patches or internet connection. I assume starting during the ps4 era it became more common place to only have partial data on physical media. I’d love to know what will be worth collecting/searching for in the future and what will potentially just serve as a frisbee.

    Known in Japan as The Hyrule Fantasy: The Legend of Zelda. The main title was dropped in the US to make the name shorter and some claim it was to avoid confusion with the upcoming Squaresoft Final Fantasy game, which would debut a year later.

    The Legend of Zelda was inspired by Shigeru Miyamoto's explorations as a boy in the surrounding areas of his home in Sonobe, Japan. One of his most memorable experiences was finding a cave entrance in the middle of the woods. After some hesitation, he entered the cave and explored its depths with the aid of a lantern.

    The story and setting were developed by Takashi Tezuka. He drew inspirations from fantasy books such The Lord of the Rings. The legend of the Triforce was written with inspirations from the battles of medieval Europe. The Master Sword was introduced as their version of Excalibur in A Link to the Past, which is regarded as reminiscent to the legend of King Arthur. Princess Zelda was named after American novelist, socialite and painter Zelda Fitzgerald. Tezuka modeled Link's appearance after the eponymous character of Walt Disney's Peter Pan.
