Making chimeras sounds cool as shit. What’s even unethical about it? Why can’t I have an army of beavermen to dam the world’s waterways unless my ransom demands are met?

Ok, I think I see where the unethical part lies…

Mint

Mint everywhere.

Ah yeah. Now I can just ask my GPU to get a team kill, all headshots, every match and feel like a winner. 😎

Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition is basically worthless if you have Dark Souls: Remastered.

60fps, better graphics, better performance, QOL enhancements, and even better multiplayer features (up to 6 total players instead of 4, just like DS3).

Probably true of most remasters/remakes, outside of speed running. I do know that PTDE is still a popular version to speedrun due to certain glitches that aren’t present in Remastered.

Kal Ort Por

Hehe reminds me of my Hide macro. I would make it bow 3 times and say “Kal Ort Por” before hiding, so people would think I teleported away when being chased by PKers in Felucca. 🤣

The word originates as far back as 1426. I just find it crazy that it’s the only one considered a perjorative. Idiot, stupid, moron… All acceptable, and all have similar origins of being medical terms used to describe persons with impaired cognitive abilities that are now exclusively used as insults.

Not the meaning of sex they are talking about lol

This.

Sequels for video games from AAA studios since about the advent of lootboxes (or even earlier when it comes to EA) have basically just tried to sell you the same game as the first one, but with all the fun bits removed to be sold to you as DLC. Now it’s starting to happen with smaller ones, too.

The fact it was patented makes this not that surprising at all. Plus, corporate greed is the reason most things in entertainment exist. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Civilization peaked at 2.

Stellaris is the best 4X game I have ever played. I haven’t even seen all the content they keep adding, without owning any dlc. And this is a Paradox strategy game; there’s a fuckton of DLC.

Royal Society: “We grant you a seat in this society but we do not grant you the title of royalty.”

Elon: “This is outrageous! That’s unfair!”

I vaguely remember one of those joke story things where you’re doing math on the calculator while telling this long story and eventually end up with the punchline of “55378008.” (Boobless)

Don’t remember the whole joke, tho. Just the punchline. 😮‍💨

I mean… If you take the leaks by Snowden (iirc?) seriously, there’s a good possibility the CIA or other intelligence agencies have backdoors in everything.

I have literally only ever used the right shift key when playing, like, two different games. Both were simulations with insane amounts of controls. One is ARMA, and the other was a flight sim.

I used it because it had a function bound to it that wasn’t on the left shift.

Edit: Oh and I think there was a pinball game on DOS that used both shift keys to operate the flippers.

At this time, the Nazis already have nukes.

The only reason it works for Reddit is because they have a singular domain name you can site search and the context engine is good enough to know you’re requesting a site search of www.reddit.com. Adding “Lemmy” to your query doesn’t help, but adding the URL to an instance does. Such as “thing I want to search Lemmy.World” actually results in hits on Lemmy.World and other instances directly linked to from it. You can do it with any instance you want. You could even add “site:URL” to make sure it’s doing the right kind of search if it doesn’t understand the context.

My apartment unit has a heat pump and it kicks ass. Sure as hell beats the central A/C unit we had in the house I grew up in. The upstairs of our house basically never got cooler than 80 in the summer, even with the A/C on.

I believe that was a season 3 episode. I haven’t even really watched the show since Roiland was found to be a creep. First couple of episodes after he was replaced, to see how things went, but it just wasn’t nearly as funny.

IIRC, we first got DSL when I was just leaving junior high. Or maybe when I was a sophomore. I really don’t remember when, but when I was doing most of this downloading, it was on DSL. When we still had dialup, I couldn’t even reliably play UO all weekend (first-world problems, AMR?), because we only had 1 phone line and someone would eventually need the phone.
