Most things have it and what doesn't, OpenSubltitles, an open source subtitle resource, does. It's just linked right into my Jellyfin. I haven't had to manually find subtitles in years.....

For me it suffered from "show, don't tell" problems. There are numerous weeks long skips between scenes and you're just supposed to understand that Joel and Ellie became close during that time. But as a player, you're basically being asked to babysit someone you've known for 10 minutes. It was basically one long escort mission and the "OMG SO AMAZING SCENE" is.... giraffes walking by. Like really? That's what it takes to wow people? Some giraffes walking outside the building????

The world was a generic apocalypse setting, the "story" can be described in a few bullet points, and the big "emotional gut punch" at the end is so cliche.

I'll die on the hill that it didn't do a single groundbreaking thing. Nothing about the game wasn't already done before and better. It's the equivalent of a summer blockbuster movie: a fun mindless take on an idea but otherwise generic.

Although sometimes you get lucky and the tech support person actually admits that their routers are absolute garbage and while they won't necessarily say "you should buy your own", they don't fight you and subtly encourage you when you say you plan to do just that.

Frontier tried to give us a dual band, single antenna router. 2.5ghz and 5ghz using the same antenna that just alternates between both networks constantly. The vast majority of my smart devices refused to connect because they need constant 2.4ghz network, not some laggy inconsistent psuedo dual network. Argued with the first tech support person trying to get them to understand that I physically could not use that router until they sent me to someone higher who admitted the routers were useless junk. Oh, and the settings could only be accessed by a web portal with limited functionality. The VAST majority of the features were locked behind customer service and having someone else do it for you. And of course their routers had a built in "free Wi-Fi for all our customers" hotspot set up so you were paying to extend THEIR network as well.

Now I have a "gaming" router with 3 antennas that I have complete control over and all of my devices are happy.

Because you're an anti-AI zealot unwilling to hear the other side so every conversation devolves into uselessness. You don't want to have a discussion, you just want people to agree with you.

Exactly what the OP you responded to is saying.

Yup! She's not exactly a linebacker.

Will you morons stop nitpicking this? Contextually, for an older person, she's still a child. Big whoop.

She was beaten and you daft imbeciles are outraged over the use of words.

You wonder why you get no progress? Because you're a bucket of crabs nitpicking anything that isn't perfect because that's easier than actually doing something.

Ok, so you just keep wanting to try and derail this into talking about becoming conservative when you get older.

For the last time you retarded mouse:

An older person described Greta as "still a child" because from their perspective she is. I never said she wasn't worth listening to. Not once. Get some reading comprehension.

And your daft retarded ass keeps missing that point over and over and over and going on and on about conservativism.

You're retarded or a troll. Have fun being blocked cus I won't see you anymore. People like you are why they put warning labels on everything. You'll still die of stupidity, but at least your family won't be able to sue.

Go huff the end of a tailpipe.

Oh, you have a SAYING?!? Omg, another vague generalization? Holy shit, how have we as a species survived for so long without your wisdom, Plato??? You need to tell the masses!

Hey everyone, this guy has boiled down all of politics to a few simple sayings! We've found the Messiah!

Fucking dumbass 😑

Again, this is about someone older referring to a young person as "still a child". That's it, you fucking tool. How daft are you?

Cool, now let's talk about the overwhelming majority of today's youth leaning right. If young people are so much smarter why are so many of them falling into that trap?

Oh shit, it's almost like making generalizations leads to you spouting bullshit out of context. I can just as easily paint today's youth as absolute morons.

But you're so ready to be like "old people dumb and evil" that you forget this is all about calling Greta " a child". You know, like your grandma might do to your adult self because, from her perspective, you still are.

Go touch some grass you fucking loser. We're talking about someone being abused and you're nitpicking over the definition of "child". You've missed the mark so far you're not even in the same stadium.

That's a bullshit generalization, or "stereotype". Jane Goodall just died at a ripe old age and she was a saint. You're not debating, just throwing bullshit assumptions out and acting like you just wrote a thesis paper on experience.

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Exactly! They're not infantilizing her, they're just describing her as they see her: as still basically a kid with one foot into adulthood.

I feel like it's mostly younger people disagreeing tbh. No one older seriously looks back on their young adulthood and goes "yup, I had everything figured out then! That was totally my peak!"....well, unless your Al Bundy obsessing over high school football games.
