I mean it’d be great to see some of these ‘public facts’ you mention. I’m not necessarily questioning the veracity of your claims, but this does ironically somewhat come across as a AI written fever-dream without some supporting evidence.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•do you hate AI generated art? why?128·3 months agoNo, quite the opposite.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Life is Strange: Double Exposure reportedly a 'large loss' for Square Enix, says analyst, who adds: 'The company's IP fundamentally varies too much between good and bad'English13·4 months agoAs I understand it the game largely ignores a pretty big decision that was made at the end of Life is Strange 1, and also breaks up a major relationship with basically no real explanation. Consequently I think it was boycotted by angry fans, which might explain it’s poor sales.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where do you draw the line between "staying informed" and avoiding all the stress in the news?29·3 months agoShamelessly reposting this here, because it seems relevant:
Negative news has a greater impact on people than positive: https://assets.csom.umn.edu/assets/71516.pdf
Media sites know this, and use it to drive engagement:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-023-01538-4
https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/social-media-facebook-twitter-politics-b1870628.html
And so, negative headlines are getting worse: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0276367
But negative news is addictive and psychologically damaging: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/why-we-worry/202009/the-psychological-impact-negative-news
So it’s important to try and stay positive:
