I typed this question into the all knowing AI and it returned false.

Kind of skimmed, but I didn’t notice any mention of same sex couples / marriages. I wonder if there’s any major difference or if the data is similar.

For me it was the original Resident Evil on the Playstation.

It was the first time I saw live-action digitized full-motion video on a gaming system. I know there were a lot of FMV (Full Motion Video) games in that era on other systems, but I didn’t own those other systems and I didn’t know anybody who did. So, it was all new to me once I played a Playstation.

Resident Evil was also the first time a video game had ever given me a jump scare. Early in the game a zombie doberman bursts through a window unexpectedly and I was hooked! I loved introducing my friends to the game, specifically so I could see their reaction when the dog shows up. So much fun.

Honestly seeing and hearing Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo was kind of wow, too. The graphics boost compared to the 8-bit systems I was used to was incredible. And the sound quality compared to the other 16-bit systems I’d played (Genesis and TG-16) was a leap above. The experience probably pales in comparison to modern games, but back then there was wow factor to it.

To young me, Street Fighter 2 Turbo was pretty wow as well. It was “literally” the same as the arcade version to child me. I could not believe the home version was so close to the real thing, because prior generations of game systems like the NES couldn’t come close to that level of performance.

If he’s late 30s to early 40s then he did not age well. I know several full blown alcoholics in their 50s who look younger than the guy in this photo.

It’s definitely a fair bit of effort and responsibility to keep this many fish in this size of tank, so it pretty much needs to be a labor of love. Cichlid tanks like the one in the photo might be a little less work / stress compared to a typical saltwater tank of similar size, but they can still be a lot of work.

I wouldn’t want to take on the responsibility of upkeep on this tank, but I am certain if I had something like this in a nice spot where I could stop and lounge for a bit, watching the fish do their thing, in that moment it would be quite calming.

Same principle with captive birds as pets. The sounds of a happy, healthy aviary can be so soothing (with the right birds of course). However, birds are a lot of work. And the cost of caring for them, I mean, just wait until you see the bill.

Usually just flip on some Murder She Wrote when I need to get my Dick in the mood. Been married 43 years come November.

Understatement, I know, but I find this so annoying, and it certainly feels malicious.

I was just commenting the other day how ridiculous it is that google search results literally serve up malware to people via paid ads. My neighbor was running into issues where her computer kept getting “infected” and a full screen scam would take control, blaring out a loud message that her computer was infected with a virus, that it was infecting microsoft’s servers, and she had to call them now to fix it.

After investigating, I found out that these types of scams are stored as blobs on Microsoft’s cloud service, but the links are spread via ads in google search. When I tried searching for the exact search terms my neighbor was using on my own devices and my own network, I found out that google was serving me the exact same ads, aka sponsored links. They look like legitimate results for things that people search for, like showing what appears to be a link to Amazon when searching for a product, even the links will say “www.amazon.com”.

Obviously I told my neighbor not to use Chrome and suggested some browser alternatives. I installed uBlock on all the browsers (including chrome) just to be safe. Then I showed her how to tell when things are ads, even when they are deceiving, and to never click on ads or sponsored links under any circumstances.

But it’s definitely infuriating that they are serving up malware in their ads, don’t respond to reports in a timely manner, are getting people caught in scams that they allow to advertise on their network but then somehow object to people managing those risks by blocking ads from untrustworthy sources, like google.

It’s a sex joke grandma, you wouldn’t get it.

I think there’s a piece of pepperoni between my bicuspids I could probably use his legs to help me dislodge.

I’m the one who owns a copy of the theatrical releases.

I bought them on a deep discount sale at a time in my life when that was literally a big purchase which I could hardly afford and I did it partially because I was hoping to watch it with a friend who was a big LOTR fan. I wanted to spend time together and see it through his eyes because as much as I liked the movies, I didn’t think they were A+ tier.

When I mentioned watching the trilogy together sometime, his first question was “are they the extended versions?” When I said no, his response was “I’ll pass.”

Soul crushing.

It’s so weird seeing almost 500 upvotes on a post like this on lemmy where, based on comments, like 90% of it’s users can barely afford rent, let alone going on vacation and staying at a place that offers breakfast.

Which of these 21 blurry pixelated pixels is the frog?

As luck would have it, I’ve got a similar number of anuses.

I would truthfully and happily go back in time and tell people not to waste with the fucked up bullshit technology of the past. I mean Angular 1, what the hell was that? Twitter integration? Fuck you 2010. Zend Framework? You should be hanged. HANGED.

Did you take the photo? Congratulations. Also Betty Nunez has passed.

We’re all holding baby lambs on this blessed day.

Dozens I tell you. Literally at least 24!

The Ukranian is kind of hot, if you know him give him my insta @numberfor002

I mean aren’t numbers invented by Arabics anyway? What’s the point at ending with 9 and 10 when they could go full 9 and 11? /s
