Yeah, I had no idea what was going on until I read this comment.
Upon closer inspection the stripe is clearly white on the first image, but the second one really threw me off because it looks the same color as the floor. I'm also slightly colorblind so that probably doesn't help.
I'm personally a fan of the 12 hour format for casual conversation and 24h for anything else. 4 PM or 4 in the afternoon sounds better than 16:00 for casual speak imo.
But man, I'm bad with the 24h format lol. I often need to consciously correct myself in that 18:00 =/= 8 PM.
I believe you are far more likely to be killed by your home country than china in just about every case, simply by the fact that you live there and they have permanent access to you. By no means is it a great place, but china is not exactly out there sending hit men to take out some random Joe because of the videos they were watching.
The capybara with airpods, lol. Are capybaras particularly popular with Gen Z?
It's interesting to me to see the airpods aren't even in its ears, which I take as the LLM not recognizing that the capybara's ears are ears. Or maybe it doesn't recognize that airpods belong in ears, and just sees that it generally goes on the side of the head where ears usually are. It really is fascinating technology, shame it's used in the way it is.
Oh wow, Xbox 360 Minecraft. That just unlocked some childhood memories. I no longer have a 360, or I'd gladly be playing it too. I guess I could look into emulators instead.
I vaguely remember seeing mods for Java edition that exist to bring old nostalgic Minecraft elements like the whole Xbox 360 UI and the old janky ass world gen to modern versions. I really ought to look into them at some point.
Stick around for a few more months and you'll remember them no matter how hard you try to forget. They're one of the most active users on Lemmy. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to find out they are the most active commenter.
This was me a few hours ago with the word incentivize. I had to try like 4 times before I got it right, and even then I looked it up before sending the message just to be safe.
TBF, her original comment was about being able to beat up strippers in GTA5, not about T&A specifically. Not that the context makes it any better. You can beat up just about anything in GTA, taking issue with specifically the strippers is just looking for things to be mad about.
I don't think there ever could be observable evidence of a changed timeline. Especially nothing stupid like Marty slowly fading out of existence in Back to the Future.
But tbh, I'm not sure going into the past to change something is actually possible in most cases without creating some sort of time paradox. Interacting with the future shouldn't cause any problems, but the past is probably set in stone. After all, if I went back in time to assassinate hitler, there is no reason for future me to go back in time to kill hitler since he was already killed, causing hitler to never get assassinated. And on and on it loops.
But therein lies the difference. And it's not just saying the quiet part out loud, it's doing the quiet part out loud. Sure, it's never been great, but 30 years ago the president wasn't a cult leader openly trafficking people to offshore torture camps and proudly disobeying court orders while getting cheered on by his followers.
