The self checkout line in a Walmart after an especially hot summer day.

Less than half, but let’s be honest here. It’s because she has more money than him : P

People still unironically use chrome?

You could feasibly fit it into the actual lore and make it “balanced” in a sense. The party finds a relic with the power to rewind time by a few moments. Becomes inert for a few days/play sessions after use.

Then there is actually the potential for complete failure (the relic holder dies instantly before being able to activate it), but they still get a sense of safety that propels them into stupid dangerous stuff all the time.

11 out of 24… I would have done better just clicking randomly

These things were NEVER fucking left open at the park near me. Could wait there the entire day and the same fucking kid would be using it the entire time, completely oblivious to your attempts to get him to move.

I swear, I probably only touched the thing once when i was a child. I came back with my daughter a few years ago and nobody was giving it a second glance. Used my kid as an excuse to finally get to play with the thing…

Speak for yourself

I mean… I’ll regularly go to the grocery store and see soda prices vary by 200-300% week-to-week. Sure, it’s all based around “sale” value, but it amounts to the same thing. If it’s $9 for 2 12-packs one week and then $11 for a 12-pack the next week, it isn’t an invalid markup because you had to buy 2 to get the first price.

I’m guessing you missed the time period where opening the wrong page would give you an infinite loop of un-closeable pop-up windows with background music.

Ads were never really non-obtrusive. If advertisers could force you to listen to their slogan at max volume every time you opened your browser, they would do so without hesitation. If you ever saw an easily avoidable ad in the late 90s-early 00s, it wasn’t for lack of trying. They simply hadn’t personally figured out more annoying methods yet.

Something like that I would guess.

It’s pork roll.

The camera portion is literally how he makes the money in the first place. The only way we’ll really know for certain how he is beyond that is to see what he does with his money after “retirement”.

I don’t expect much, but it’s pointless to guess about his actual character now.

AI image generation. It has some wonky stuff going on with the mouth area too.

I’ve been on reddit since the great digg migration ages ago and never saw anything about raising chickens. I buy 6 chickens and build a coop in my backyard and instantly see this community… the world is a strange place.

I guess I’m subscribing to learn about chicken facts now 🤷

While the idea sounds great in the short-term, sites like this need a huge community to actually become useful. It’s cool as a little nod back to the old style of internet communities, but without a large following it’s too easy for stuff like this to just fade away. Losing a single server like lemmy.world wouldn’t shut down the entire system now, but imagine what would happen to the average user if their endpoint for news/media just disappeared and they were forced to make a new account and find all of their old communities again.

It’s still neat, and I intend to give it as fair of a shot as I can, but we’re ultimately going to “need” an influx of non-contributing-cat-picture-lurkers to push a few of the top servers up to the levels of involvement needed to support a persistent community.
