this is somehow worse than Black Mirror: Be Right Back

my (uneducated) guess is some combination of catering to degraded attention spans, intentional manipulation of that degraded attention by malicious actors, and somehow it’s more profitable for the media companies to do news like this

if anthologies are allowed:

Activision Anthology: Remix Edition
Atari Anthology
Sega Genesis Classics
Namco Museum Archives
Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition

I’m a novice gamer, so someone who’s got more experience with retro gaming history could probably come up with a list that includes the greatest possible number of titles for preservation

could we have a link to the video you mentioned?

i could get on board with a quiet compact mechanical keyboard. i sort of assumed they were necessarily loud and chunky lol

would love to 3D print myself a mold to make a full coverage (top and bottom) silicone rubber sleeve for it. so that when i inevitably spill something on it, it has a chance to survive

charcuterie: love it but it’s a lot more difficult now that both meat and milk hurt tummy :(

mechanical keyboards: now this one I don’t get, personally. i need my peripherals to be as quiet and compact as possible for sensory filtering and portability

raises hand please tell me liking star trek isn’t an ADHD symptom

i just moved in with a roommate who’s barely ever home and I’ve done more cleaning in the last 2 months than I have in 5 years lol

she’s not even a neat freak but my brain is like “we have to keep the apartment tidy because another human lives here.” my mean fuckin brain… I’m a human too why didn’t I deserve a clean apartment when I lived alone ;_;

GS execs really did a fat line and said “lol what if we subject our wagies to crackhead craigslist”

the feeling of trying to hold a WRITE [THING] DOWN command in your brain long enough to get to the pen & paper / phone

i like superheated steam treated (Silk, Westsoy, Trader Joe’s) and freshly made Asian style

but if it’s not treated nor fresh, lipoxygenase wreaks havoc on the oils and makes it godawful yeah

90% of the time i take a nap i do not wake up feeling less tired

half of the things i want to say (if I’m lucky) because my brain produces an endless torrent of meaningless overshare-y bullshit that I just have to desperately try to keep out of my painstakingly curated conveyor belt of approved remarks that will hopefully not get me in trouble and/or bore people to death

lol people really think they’ll be able to make money off of lemmy posts. lmao

ayyyy that’s my favorite rock. it’s a good’n

movie theaters are fucking bullshit

• can’t pause movie and go pee
• can’t pause movie and discuss something with the person you’re watching with
• can’t rewind when you inevitably zone out so then you just have to not know what the hell happened the past few minutes
• can’t laugh or make jokes too loud or you’re an asshole
• can’t eat or drink anything you actually want to, let alone for a not ridiculous price
• no subtitles
• the first third of the seats cause neck pain if you sit there
• seats usually gross

i am SO thankful i live in an era where i can easily watch movies at home

what’s going on here?

nor should they be piercing blue or green and fuck up the way my room looks in the dark

(at least the angry dishwasher man agrees with me on this)

people who park in the left “lane” of the escalator: jail

people who install a single-wide escalator: death penalty

*raises hand lactose intolerantly* can we make it cost less if we give up the “-milk” label?

that absolutely should not count as milk and I’m upset that I’m now cursed with this knowledge
