If video games actually determined our real world behavior, we wouldn't be violent, we would be obsessed with powerwashing and all have CDLs.

    Over 9 million copies of Euro Truck Simulator 2 have been sold, according to a Renault Trucks press release from March 2024. That’s a staggering number, reflecting the game’s enduring popularity.

      That’s pretty amazing. I’ve never played the game but it looks pretty chill.

      Sometimes I really get in the mood for chill games like Stardew Valley or NetHack! Maybe I’ll check out ETS2 sometime!

        ETS2 + Lee Hazlewood’s Cowboy in Sweden is just maximum aura.

        I mean, I recommend Motor Town: Behind The Wheel, but ETS2 is undeniably awesome too!

      You obviously pasted the wrong link.

      I believe this is the game you meant:

        this game is great, i installed it just now. I heard the game is bad, but even still, i assumed the ui problems must have been from running the game through proton. but no, it’s literally just that bad

        also, on wikipedia there’s a picture of the truck climbing a steep mountain. but what it doesn’t show is that the truck actually goes much faster up steep mountains than over flat land because the physics system is terrible and the car doesn’t slow down at all horizontally when it starts moving vertically.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
