How’s the search engine supposed to know you’re blocked from Reddit?

The element of style is the most well read element.

Mosquitoes.

All of these images show defined objects, so don’t select anything and hit verify. You would know this if you were actually human. 😌

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…

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

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. 🤣

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.

They’ll ram you alright. 😏

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.

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.

I made so much money in high school downloading MP3s or anime from Napster/Kazaa/Limewire and burning then to CD/DVD since I was, like, the only kid in town with a computer, access to the internet, and a DVD burner. I remember getting asked how my parents let me get away with it and I was like “my dad is the one who taught me how to do it!” He was always borrowing games or music from co-workers. He got the DVD burner to make copies, since DRM was basically non-existent at the time for a majority of games. S’how we had Quake!

Is it really him that it’s saying did this? I mean, I could look up my dad’s name and all I get are articles about a serial killer who just happened to have the same name; and that’s not generated by AI. Names aren’t usually unique identifiers.

The fediverse is more like the evolution of those old school forums, but diversified into more than just forums. Decentralized, user ran shit that could be a forum, a microblog, a YouTube alternative, a Discord/IRC alternative, an image host, etc. And then they could possibly share content with each other directly, but that’s kinda up to the individual app/site.

Barely any content is created on Reddit. It’s an aggregate site where 90% of the posts are links to other sites, just like Lemmy. Even most of the memes/image macros are unoriginal and taken from somewhere else.
