  Even more so in the Dean Koontz stories.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ATTN: GEOLOGISTS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Y-level. Before 1.18 the top layer containing bedrock was y=4.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just stumbled upon this game called Chicken Invaders⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was introduced to this game by a friend and played it all the time! There was a sequel too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clever, clever⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not even sure whether you’re referring to directories or actual physical folders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is American politics really as seemingly satirical of itself as it is portrayed?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It was likely some kind of money laundering scheme.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Horrors We've Unleashed⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Mosquitoes have killed more humans than every disease ever

  How do they kill us outside of spreading disease?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hotmail was owned by Microsoft when I signed up in the late 90s. It’s no surprise it’s still around. It hasn’t been my primary email for a long time, but I still use it as my MS account. So really it’s just my Minecraft account.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THICC⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They definitely should’ve put more thought into it before typing “internetism”, but still no reason for an apology.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 needs 64GB of RAM for ideal performance — oddly, the game install size is only 30GB⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, it’s a game now? Back when I dabbled with it (early 2000s) it was a simulator as the name says. Flightgear is an open source simulator that, according to pilots, feels more realistic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 needs 64GB of RAM for ideal performance — oddly, the game install size is only 30GB⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is there any reason to choose MSFS over Flightgear other than simply being unaware of the latter’s existence?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube confirms your pause screen is now fair game for ads⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  accidentally tapping

  Sounds like mobile to me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨brown recluse⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I got a spider bite when I was a kid that left my knee swollen and painful for days. If I see them inside they’re dead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I want an AI TV that blocks all forms of advertising.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m friends with a family who had one of those until maybe about 10 years ago when it stopped working.

  “Asshole” became “idiot”.

  IIRC “fuck” was skipped over entirely.

  Some movies were unwatchable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck TCL. I had one for around a year before the backlights stopped working. Maybe it was an outlier, but I’ll not be buying another.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple stands by decision to terminate account belonging to WWDC student winner | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That sounds like par for the course in the US but the kind of thing that the EU would have a law against.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kroger executive admits company gouged prices above inflation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah, I’m not familiar. I couldn’t name a single member of most bands that I like, and while I’ve surely heard them before, I couldn’t name a single one of their songs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kroger executive admits company gouged prices above inflation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why is Lemmy gold an undead pirate. Not that I have a problem with it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill! BILL! Bill! BILL!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess I technically can’t anymore since I don’t even know where to find one these days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill! BILL! Bill! BILL!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  TIL some people couldn’t hear them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk wants to implant millions of people with Neuralink brain chips⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You say that as if there aren’t a ridiculous amount of those people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New to Lemmy. I have a couple of questions.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You could just say that you saw something on Lemmy regardless of the instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Justice Department considering push for historic break up of Google after landmark antitrust ruling: report⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, did they actually keep Waze? I assumed they bought it to kill it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Co-kee⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about found, but certainly heard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tawny Frogmouth⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t assume that I’ve heard of anything. For all I know the creator of this meme coined the phrase (?) “hawk tuah”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨my humps⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  100 duck sized t. rexes, and it’s not even close. Grab a couple of the little bastards by the neck and start swinging until they’re all dead. The big boy would crush you with one bite. This also applies to the question that yours was likely inspired by.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stuck⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe mini M&Ms tubes are bigger than I remember (it’s been years since I’ve seen one), but I’m pretty sure you couldn’t jam a dick into one of them either. Not without injury, anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It must confuse English learners to hear phrases like, "I'm home", instead of "I am at home." We don't say I'm school, or I'm post office.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I always thought that “Fuck you” was a command (“You fuck you”).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Edge will let you control how much RAM it uses soon⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I already control how much RAM it uses by simply not using it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forest Gump thought "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get" because he was illiterate and couldn't read the little card.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve seen them in recent years, but I haven’t always seen the maps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jesus, help me! - No!⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But also four feet. That means he has more surface area to spread the weight across this time around.
