That you’ve solved world hunger

Funny this about this, if they had stuck with the Popeye IP this game would likely be forgotten now. Instead they created two of the most indelible characters in videogame history.

This is going to upset 10s of people

Just curious what issues you’re having with the Epic store. I’ve bought a few games now and thought the process was pretty smooth.

Lol, they need to do a little quiz after the movies. But really though, if you don’t want to watch the movies why are you an academy voter

I was thinking the other day, imagine a plane went down in 2015 with Kanye West and Elon Musk aboard. It would be like “ah man, there go a couple legends”.

You’re supposed to say “Not much, you?” which deflects the conversation back to them.

Worst thing about someone watching a reel out loud is you hear the same 15 second sound bite 30 times while they’re reading the comments.

Is this a reference to someone?

Lemmy could absolutely benefit from a bit more traffic. Lemmy is a good Reddit replacement for the largest subs. Like if you’re into self hosting, Linux and general tech there’s a lot to offer. But if I need to engage with a smaller community or ask a niche question I know there just isn’t enough people here to fulfill that. Either that or a lot of smaller Lemmy communities are just bots reposting from their equivalent subreddit.

I’m pulling a number out of my ass but it seems like for every 50 people to subscribe to a community, you’ll get 1 really active poster and 49 lurkers. My hometown on Reddit has 23k subscribers it’s safe to say it’s got about 400 active users. On Lemmy it’s 86 and as the assumption math goes, there’s only 1 person posting there.

Even if our traffic doubled we’d still be tiny in comparison but at least the small communities would start to come alive

For real. You can’t become the third highest grossing movie of all time by fooling people.

Wait what is the real sticker even referring to. What does doable mean in the context of a side table?

I mean, you’re 40 now (or close to it). A lot of your nostalgia is also wrapped up in being 5. I too was an 80s kid but if the market hadn’t changed your reaction would. You probably aren’t sitting under a blanket learning the names in Dave the Diver. You have an income now so you probably wouldn’t just wait till your parents bought you Hades 2. You’re probably not running around with your friends right now pretending to be Helldivers. Games have changed but so have you. The Indie market is carrying the torch of these bygone days. A lot of the stuff you want wouldn’t have the same impact on you today. I am however watching my own children glom into game characters. My daughter loves Mario and Mega Man without going to Blockbuster to rent the cartridges.

(Btw madden 95 does work on the SNES classic, they’re pretty easy to jail break and fill with your own ROMs)

For context, the emachines “never obsolete” wasn’t referring to this computer, it was a recycling program where you could send your old machine back and get a huge discount on your next one. It was actually a pretty good deal at the time, especially when your average family machine was a lot more expensive than they are today

Reddit is gonna be just fine and the shade we like to throw around here isn’t even a blip on their radar
