This came out 2 years before the first smartphone, the iPhone, came to market. It’s not like squarish cell phones didn’t exist before then of course, it’s just that it looks so timeless the way it was drawn here.

This video was recommended to me many hours ago by the YT algorithm, and I really wanted to see some SimCity2000 content, in particular just hearing some soothing SC2K tunes, but instead it’s a video primarily about Apple hardware problems. I’m sure this is interesting to Apple cultists, but I was thoroughly disappointed.

I wish the Lemmy core developers/founders didn’t have such gross political views.

Which are? A link to a story or something will suffice.

To be fair, it’s a pretty rage-inducing proposal.

Recently I’ve binged “Common Side Effects” which is yet another Mike Judge banger. I’m not sure if there’s a season 2 planned, but season 1 can definitely be enjoyed as a standalone with how it ends.
A show I was recommended randomly was “The Eternaut”. It’s a 6 episode Argentinian Netflix show based on some pretty old comic books. The series is excellent “War of the worlds” style scifi. It has been renewed for season 2.
I don’t know too much about Argentina, but the author was half German and he was part of the Montoneros guerilla movement when the military junta was in power in the 70s, so that’s a whole rabbit hole one can go down - very interesting.

Killjoys

I looked through some of the film stills on IMDb for Killjoys and it was kinda fun to recognize so many faces from The Expanse.
@thejoker954@lemmy.world mentioned The Eternaut, and you look like you enjoy good tv-scifi, so you might want to consider giving that a go as well.

I would’ve been shocked if they didn’t give this a season 2. It’s the best original scifi I’ve seen this year. I know its source material is old, but they really did the best job they could with a budget of just $15 million.

Have you watched “Common Side Effects”? It’s an Adult Swim show by Mike Judge which has a bit of conspiracy theme to it.

I gave it 8 out of 10. I really enjoyed the pacing.
If you’re into “War of the worlds”-armageddon style scifi, this is definitely worth a watch. It has English dub, but I always recommend people watch it in the original language with subtitles, so that could be a drawback I guess.

I believe there’s a study that shows that cursing when you get hurt helps alleviate the pain[1][2] (by about 33% apparently). I wonder if that’s related, like swearing by being an extension of language helps read and understand the code.

Especially that last hand… Pretty sure that’s his dad’s, right? The glove.

I swear I had just gotten the bugsnax song out of my head. Back to square one.

Kinda bug and kinda snack
Try to catch 'em in your trap
Feed somebody and you’ll see
We are whatever we eat

I couldn’t get your archive link to work, so I initiated a snapshot myself: https://archive.md/UJ2Pi

To no ones surprise the switch happened in April 2020, I think we all know what was happening around that time.

HoTMetal Pro HTML Editor

Why did I read that as “hotmeal pro”. WYSIWYG editors from that era had pretty weird names, huh? HotDog comes to mind.

Estonia and Denmark straight up switched 2nd and 6th places. Good for Estonia. Sad for us Danes.

Because that’s what heroes do. Thanks sony…

They’ve been emailing me daily since I began the account deletion progress. Of course it’s one of those crappy “it takes 7 days just because, and if you log back in, we restart the timer!”.
For comparison I recently deleted my NordVPN account and it was instant.

They’ll still give her millions of dollars though.
