  Grand Inquisitor is by far the best 3d Zork title, Nemesis felt too much like Myst and wasn’t nearly comedic enough for mec

  Not until you pull the handbrake at least

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americium: How a small element could power the next century of space exploration⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems kinda dangerous to do radioactive materials scrapping, but if you got the safety protocols and equipment worked out then it’s a living

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linux gamers on Steam finally cross over the 3% mark⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, even more casual games like Balatro are proof of that, despite how easily you can port a game of that nature otherwise, people will choose to use proton because it’s still able to sync with their progress and symlinking is too inconvenient to consider unless you’re running like 2gb ram or something.

  Now if only my kidney stones could move that fast

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨card game shop⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yu-Gi-Oh! players too, especially if they do 5m combos every time they’re going 1st.

  Well this is Lemmy shitpost, so you’ve come to the right place!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. hits $38 trillion in debt, after the fastest accumulation of $1 trillion outside of the pandemic⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We all knew hiring actors to feign competence was always gonna be expensive, but more expensive than the pandemic is stifling.

  This Old House?

  Remember folks, in Italian ‘gn’ is the equivalent to the Spanish ‘ñ’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner is ready! ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, if we assume American-Chinese foods are based upon what’s available to make authentic dishes, then Chine-Mex is the equivalent for South US(border region mostly) and Mexico. Stuff like cilantro in egg rolls or avocado fried rice! Here’s a nice supplemental NPR Article: npr.org/…/the-chinese-mexican-cuisine-born-of-u-s…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner is ready! ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget Chine-Mex!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please tell me⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but at least they have high sugar warnings on their beverages, so it’s likely nothing compared to what the US does with the only metric measured bottles available in the region (which are typically much cheaper too).

  Don’t forget the chayote; certain gourds are perfect for stewing!

  Paris, Tx maybe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MultiVersus officially closes down and is delisted today⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Better service for the community. Take a look over towards Spellbreak for a second and you’ll see a community that has taken what Proletariat had given them after an acquisition by Blizzard and started doing private servers to keep their game functional. I think there’s much to learn from this End-of-Service model, perhaps we could have more privately hosted servers to reduce their overhead if companies truly loved their fanbase; might even be feasible to follow that model from the start for f2p games so the official servers are more capable for tourneys and the like. Either way the goal is end user satisfaction, so if those means are preservation or archival like with Yu-Gi-Oh! Cross Duel, then so be it the fanbase does what they want ultimately, but we just ask companies to offer their olive branch so that all their precious arts don’t drown in the ever expanding sea of data.

  Well then they wouldn’t be crunchy now, would they?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Although i love it⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Cauliflower is best served as a pickle, and we should fry pickled cauliflower like we do cucumber pickles.

  Snort might actually be a good real world application that stands to benefit from ML, so for security there’s some sort of hopefulness.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It isn’t exactly that we think everyone is evil, we just doubt that anyone with profits in mind is doing much, or any, good for humanity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's been 30 years and I still can't get over the fact that the French word for "potatoes" is "ground apples." Have The French never had an apple?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Similarly, in Spanish, Aleman means German, as such Alemania means Germany.
