Really served this one up on a platter.
Took me for a spin.
Didn’t really scratch the itch
So many levels!
The levels:
A keen eye would pick up 2 subtle but clever additional references in the background and related to the specifications of those particular drives.
Are we looking at the same image? I can’t even tell the brand of the drives, let alone the model or specs. One of them might be an HGST drive? It’s too pixelated/JPEGd to tell.
Oh, I couldn’t tell you what the 2 things are. I don’t have a keen eye. I’m just waiting for someone who does.
I don’t get it.
Bad title
The requested page title contains unsupported characters: “%2B”.
Your browser should normally handle that.
But you can also replace that string with ‘+’: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_(Ctrl+Alt+Del)
Get a better browser.
That’s a wikipedia error, I’m seeing the same on Firefox on android
Looks like thunder or android or whatever is doing something weird with the characters when clicked
Soo… Some characters are not valid in URLs (or not used for other reasons) and must be replaced. In this case, the
+is percent-encoded to%2B, which rendersLoss_(Ctrl+Alt+Del)asLoss_(Ctrl%2BAlt%2BDel), which is a perfectly fine URL (cut off the front for clarity).Hower, something on the client (OS, browser) then seems to look at that URL and think that the percent sign cannot be there and encodes that again to yield
Loss_(Ctrl%252BAlt%252BDel).When Wikipedia looks at this and tries to figure out the page to load, it de-encodes that string back to
Loss_(Ctrl%2BAlt%2BDel)and seems to stub its toe on the%2B, if @SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world is to be believed.Fine on Voyager and Firefox Android here.
I think you should mention the Lemmy browser as well; I had no problem using Summit + Waterfox just now.

You take a four panel comic, have one line stand up, two panels with two lines standing up, and one panel with two lines perpendicular to each other. Congratulations! It’s a joke about miscarriage
It’s not a joke about miscarriage. It’s a meme about miscarriage.
IMO it’s not about miscarriage, but about a crudely drawn, supposedly funny webcomic about gaming trying (and failing) to be impactful and emotional.
Loss is a meme about miscarriage in the same way that Press F To Pay Respects is a meme about dead and wounded soldiers.
Loss, as an episode of Ctrl-Alt-Del, was like running a sweeps week episode of General Hospital in the middle of a Jackass marathon. The audience of Jackass fans you’ve attracted are going to phone in to ask just what the cunting heck you think you’re doing.
It’s not “a joke about miscarriage” 😂😂 Brudi…
It’s history’s most boring meme, Loss. Why is it significant? Well some dude posted a webcomic without realizing how cringy it was. Now people will post references about it until the heat death of the universe because apparently something about how severely uninteresting and insignificant it was is thrilling. Or something.
I always figured he was coping with experiencing a miscarriage. No cringe in that.
That’s what people thought of it though. I don’t find it interesting at all
Congratulations!
Better love story than Twilight.
Something something 6 7 our memes were better
laughs in 3-2-1 backup and RAID 5
Come on, in the fourth frame the hard drive should be on its side, facing the camera. Not on it’s back.
I only count 2 levels to this.
