In case you didn’t see the trick further down the thread - you have to make sure to install the windows version of the game that runs with proton. Then you can connect to online matches. Installing the linux version is a trap; frankly, they should just delist it at this point.
After having watched it (it was good, watched it with the buddy who had the idea and without telling him why we were watching it, he had a laugh the first time it happened), if you found it a real struggle, definitely don’t read this article about a real company that made a brain implant for epileptics and went under of which the episode heavily reminded me.
Y’ever think about how if Jesus died by a guillotine there’d be guillotines everywhere
Lol, I want to believe it was someone who wanted to slow the spread of this concept in the world, lashing out against it the only way they could.
That said I’ve def bookmarked that episode for watching. I lost track of Black MIrror, it’s a bit tough in that it’s so grim that each episode doesn’t really leave you wanting to watch the next one in my experience. But it’s had some bangers.
Oh wild, good call
Buddy had the nightmarish idea a while back with all the new generative ai stuff for video chat services injecting ads using the faces/voices of the participants in lieu of payment. Just, regularly-schedule ad breaks in your call where “your friend” suddenly starts talking about how excited they are about Raid: Shadow Legends
Ayy, recently rewatched that too. Personal headcannon: a better ending would have been a montage of Eva teaching an amnesiac Wall-E all the things he taught her and have him fall in love with those things and her again in the process. Probably more drawn out than “random electric spark magically resets memory” though
Lmao, I love the idea of adjusting the chart for obesity by subtracting men’s breast sizes from women’s
“Survival of the fittest” is not a moral law. It’s the scientific observation that, for populations of organisms that reproduce and make mistakes while reproducing, those mistakes that better fit the environment the organisms are in are more likely to be passed on, resulting in, generations later, those populations eventually adapting to better fit their environment. There’s no obligation to consider and follow it as if handed down by a judge in the same way there’s no obligation to consider and follow gravity when walking outside.
Yep. It’s a play on two meanings of “cut off”:
“If you cut off my reproductive choice” == “prevent my choice to get an abortion.” “can I cut off yours” == “can I physically cut off your dick.”
Graduates, sure, but stundents are still learning
Oh jeeze, that’s been around as a plugin in inkscape since at least 2011, I remember vectorizing an episode poster from Adventure Time using it. But I’d believe it wasn’t quite as good as whatever photoshop had. I used the “never learn photoshop” trick to be happy with what I’ve got, but then I only edit images for fun.
Lol, you did good, but got tripped up by reading “Scheißposts” as a verb. It’s capitalized, so it’s a noun. The “make” at the end gets folded into the “kannst” - or “can” - so it’s “Then you can make shitposts in two languages.”
Lol, right? I can’t even imagine the PDF in my mind, much less rotate it
Thank god I at least can rotate it using a computer or I’d be stuck
We had some that grew right under the faucet outside, and I’d share grab some and throw it in the tea when we were making iced tea. Tried it years later with dried leaves, it didn’t compare.
Also kills the opening line of snowcrash,
“the sky above the port was the color of television tuned to a dead channel”
Not to mention the small joys of tuning to the “encrypted” 18+ channels in the hopes of seeing a nip in the fog
Oh that was just FSN, an actual filesystem browser for IRIX back in the day. You can install the port FSV if you want to browse your files as if they’re 3D objects on Linux today
