I was never a fan of how StarCraft 1 is supposed to be played.

It had a map editor that allowed scripting and people used it to make tons of other games inside of StarCraft like tower defense games, drawing party games like you would see decades later on mobile, and RPGs of every franchise imaginable. There's literally thousands of unique games out there on archive websites.

Some of my other picks have already been mentioned so I'll go with an obscure answer: Cpt. Olivia Rhodes from the VR game Lone Echo.

She is by far the most realistic and immersive NPC I have ever had the fortune of experiencing. The storytelling and immersion in Lone Echo is S tier. The game itself is in my top three VR games with Half-Life Alyx and Boneworks.

Homebrew on the PSP was actually insane though. You could play everything up to the Nintendo 64 on it and even some PC games like quake. I played so many super Mario world ROM hacks on it

Did you beat the echoes of the eye DLC? It's fucking incredible and easily on par with the base game if not better

So you didn't watch the video then, got it. I guess you can ask ChatGPT to summarize the transcript for you 🙄

They would be deeply concerned as it appears to get slowly possessed by a demon when the batteries are low

If you're trying to back up Windows OS drives for some reason, robocopy works quite similarly to rsync.

I'm guessing it's a generic quote from the perspective of someone who thinks that way

Do NOT ever let cats go into washers and dryers!

I know someone who had a cat die in a running one and it fucked them up bad finding them dead later

Don't mention it!

No really don't. It wasn't me :)

 

I was introduced to https://emojikitchen.dev/ today. Let the shitposting begin!

 

Now that we know the 'Duty To Warn' letter written by Stephen Spoonamore is misleading per Snopes as discussed here: https://lemmy.world/post/22317681, I figured it was worth mentioning there is another unrelated letter with a similar message that seems more credible. The letter is linked in the article, but here's a direct link for the curious: https://freespeechforpeople.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/letter-to-vp-harris-111324-1.pdf

 

A healthy human liver contains 575 international units (IU) of vitamin A per gram while a polar bear's liver contains between 24,000 and 35,000 IU per gram. Compare that to the tolerable upper level of vitamin A intake for a healthy adult human: 10,000. Signs of toxicity generally occur when approximately 25,000 to 33,000 IU are consumed.

Illness severity depended on how much liver the explorers consumed, but symptoms typically included drowsiness, sluggishness, irritability, severe headache, bone pain, blurred vision and vomiting. While milder cases merely involved flaking around the mouth, some accounts reported cases of full-body skin loss. Even the thick skin on the bottoms of a patient's feet could peel away, leaving the underlying flesh bloody and exposed. The worst cases ended in liver damage, hemorrhage, coma and death.
