On unfamiliar machines, I just faceroll over the function keys hoping to hit the right one..

Yeah that's the one!

Was Encarta the one with a trivia game? Or was that Britannica? Cause I remember my antisocial young self playing it to death.

I still got some useless facts stuck in my head, taking up valuable space.. I can't conjure any of them on demand; but someone could randomly mention a species of frog and I would go, "oh yeah, they're native to Madagascar!"

SPAAACE!!

The horse joke was a reference to the massive recall a decade ago, when they found horse meat in their balls and sausages.

Also, as a non vegan, I find the veg balls to be as good as their meat ¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ As long as one doesn't expect it to taste anything like meat..

Or, you know, ImageMagick...

Ooh hey, my teenage cartoons!

checks year of release

Okay, where's that meme about getting run over by the old age truck?

Edit: I'm gonna add CatDog, Angry Beavers, Jimmy Neutron, and Johnny Bravo from around the same era. Also, how could we forget SpongeBob?

Ooh. Sites. I was tired and actually read it as another word that starts and ends with "s".

Am I reading the article wrong? Is it not a good thing that they refused to comply with the hostile anti-encryption law?

just worlds to run around in

Which, ironically, was why I only played the main quest in Starfield vanilla. Running around empty, boring planets, with copy-pasted dungeons (there's only, what, 10 varieties?), felt like nothing but a colossal waste of time.

So glad I didn't pay for it (Gamepass, with apologies to my Linux friends).

Most clients can show split votes. So a 0 upvote is different to 1up 1down.

On that note, not a single person downvoted your comment 🥲

Well the open source crowd is probably one of the most diverse communities in so many ways.

Everything from wife-killers, toenail-eaters, to geniuses that rolled a one in social skills. From Mexico, to Israel, to Indonesia. From a kid in the library who can't afford a computer, to millionaires running a data centre in their basement.

Diversity is one-third of DEI, which currently is public enemy number one. So here we are..

I just checked and nearly choked. I've played every single Civ game ever made. As much as I love the series, there's no way in hell I'm paying AU$160 for a base game.
