  • Neat! I always meant to play the Touch Detective games on the DS but never got around to them.

  • Rule

    Jump
  • ["Autopsy report has been updated" sound]

  • Sorry OP, you should watch The Plague Dogs.

    Don't worry about the title, it's just a cartoon about cute puppies!

  • I like the episode where he leaps into the body of the crash-landed astronaut, only to find out it was Earth all along!

  • Adam and Eve, not Adam and bees!

  • I finished the story in TOTK on Sunday, and I just started Baldur's Gate 3. But I'm starting to wonder if I should pause BG3 for a minute and play through something a little smaller rather than going from one huge game to another.

  • If that's the cost of getting a Teemto Pagalies miniseries, then so be it!

  • I failed my first time. The instructor never told me why I failed, so I have no idea what I needed to improve on. I remember thinking it MUST be the parallel parking section, so I asked my dad to take me out to the DMV so I could spend an hour or two perfecting my parallel parking.

    I scheduled a second test for the next Sunday. Little did I realize this was Super Bowl Sunday. The instructor I got that time around was very chill and just told me to drive through a nearby neighborhood a few times so we could wrap things up quickly. I was never even asked to parallel park.

    All of this to say that I don't think the DMV has a secret failing policy, but I can guarantee you that some instructors take it more seriously than others.

  • Shugo Tokumaru - Katachi

    Might be one of my favorite modern music videos (assuming you count a decade-old music video as "modern").

  • Stamp collecting.

  • Say Gex? I would, but it's not tail time yet!

  • !100yearsago@lemmy.world

    Dying implies it was alive to begin with. But I'm not too bothered, because even the original 100yearago sub isn't super busy. It was when it first started because it was documenting WWI, but not so much now.

  • If I'm searching for a specific thing and the search results lead me to Reddit I'll go there. Otherwise, nah.

  • I don't know if I really hate a name, but everyone I have ever met named Becky has been mean right from the instant I meet them.

    I have no beef with the Rebas, Rebeccas, Rebekahs, and Beccas of the world. Just Becky.

  • For me it's usually about availability. If someone suggests I try out a cool game that came out in the 80s, there's a pretty good chance piracy is the only way to play it. Sure, you can pay way too much on Ebay to get a physical copy, and I have a fair collection of retro games, but it's not like the money from Ebay sales go back to the original creators.

    Same with movies. The version of Star Wars I grew up with, the one without all the digitally added stuff since the late 90s, isn't on Disney+. If Disney announced a nice blu-ray Star Wars collection that featured the copies without Jedi Rocks and the extra aliens in the cantina and whatever, I'd go out and get it. But they haven't, so I stick to the fan-made 'despecialized editions'.

    I don't pirate from the little guy. I buy albums on Bandcamp and indie games on Steam all the time. I want the small creators to be able to eat. But I'm also fortunate enough to have a little disposable income. I know some people pirate as much as they can, and while I don't entirely agree with it, I don't know their financial situation (or the availability of these things in their country), so it's not really my place to judge them.

  • THAT'LL BE FOUR BUCKS, BABY! YOU WANT FRIES WITH THAT?
