SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.worldto Reddit@lemmy.world•/r/calvinandhobbes is being shut down due to DMCA14·2 months agoI mean GoComics clearly has some online licensing deal worked out to host Calvin And Hobbes. It probably wasn’t free.
Reddit now is not just some private community, it’s a publicly traded company stepping on their license and the traffic they should be seeing.
Also the cross IP stuff that people love to post probably doesn’t help things. It’s a complete legal quagmire and I’ve a feeling Watterson probably isn’t a fan of it either.

Also, paper records. They don’t last.
There is a nuclear waste dump in PA that the Army has been cleaning up. When they started the initial cleanup they were surprised to find more buried than what they had on record.
Turns out some of the old paper records literally fell apart. Combine that with just how need to know the US was about everything nuclear, some radioactive waste happened to fall through the cracks.

You want to believe? AI will make that easy. And as it gets better, more of us become low hanging fruit.
The parasitic hell everyone lived through back then I’ll gladly take today.
SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•YKK’s Self-Propelled Zipper: Less Crazy Than It SeemsEnglish4·5 months agoI find it’s easier to regulate heat from the bottom zipper most of the time. Also if you have any belted gear or just need to grab something in your pockets it’s easier than a full unzip. Or if you’re a guy and you’re taking a piss.
Or you can grab the corners, wrap them up over your elbows and pretend you can fly.
Liter is French for give me some fucking Cola.

Two of his friends who he said were better writers than him didn’t make it through the war.
Myrtle was still about that too

Basebuilding/dungeon crawling/pixel art/roguelike. Kinda like ADOM meets stardew, but weirder and more Japanese. Weirder how? Here’s the wiki entry on the chaos shape race, which you can play as.
VERY in depth systems in the game. Mutations, crafting, prayer, it’s a deep game.

SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•What's a cancelled game you really miss?English6·5 months agoStar Wars Galaxies was such an ambitious MMO at launch.
Crazy in depth crafting system, especially with regards to pets. With how materials were randomly generated and cycled out it created a market that actually experienced booms and scarcity.
Some of the servers went almost a year before all the materials required for certain weapons spawned. And the materials all had random stats that would affect the item you crafted.

SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What acronyms are you annoyed to see take on other meanings?22·5 months agoD2 is either a type of steel or a great game in 8th grade.
LFG used to mean Look For Group in a lot of games. Now it’s let’s fucking go.
Someone out there is looking at the people mad about chatgpt losing personality and they’re gonna cram it into games.
