No, I’m comfortable assuming that someone who had actually been through war wouldn’t be so casual speaking of it.
Also, a bunch of statements? Motherfucker that was my first comment this thread.
If you’re ready for bodies in the streets, more power to you. But get off the chair and get the fuck to it instead of ushering others into the grinder.
That’s easy to say for the living, and for people who have never witnessed this kind of shit first hand.
I’m not the person you’ve been replying to, and I share your concerns, and the belief that we are rapidly running put of options. But I’m not comfortable making such sweeping chipper statements about this stuff when I’ve been privileged enough to never experience actual war.

At surface-level, it’s a parody of Meta (Facebook company) for the dystopian future Analog Nowhere is set in. OP’s image is a “comic” from Analog Nowhere, showing the main character, girl, installing OpenBSD to her own brain. It’s a long, confusing, and wonderful story/setting.

Just pay attention to your body. I know “passively ruining my health so I can die earlier” is in vogue right now, but health problems from substance abuse (and even just poor lifestyle choices) can be hell as you age.
And there are a lot of people that thought they’d skid into a casket early and leave a pretty corpse still suffering through the day to day over a decade later.
Looks like Spæñgeböb and Patrick may have had a little too much to think. I wouldn’t want to have to report them to The Bureau.
lonely drunk and horny
Sounds like the time I barfed out of a moving car, and half of it got sucked back in through the cracked open rear window. Surprised my dad didn’t disown me for the mess it made of his car, but within 2 hours he was busy puking up a storm too. That was one nasty fucking stomach bug.
I don’t know if I’ll ever find it again, but there’s a “restored” version of that GiTS episode up on the internet archive. Someone took a bluray copy of the video and audio, and mixed in the relevant fart sounds from the audio of a VHS recording of the adult swim edit that was tracked down.

Welcome! Will be back later to discuss the suggested rules (other people have mostly said my concerns already), but for your awareness there was a thread requesting moderator rights of this sub a week ago that may have been missed by the admin that appointed you: https://lemmy.world/post/45162418
That might be a good place to start on finding additional mods.
Can we truly trust the existence of anything outside our immediate senses in the present moment? Is anything truly a thing? Can we trust our senses? Are questions like mine mental masturbation? Am I shitting right now, or is that my imagination?
The shit on the floor had better be my imagination.
Fuck.
The gamble is if there’s enough of these people in the right places to keep society running.
I’m not as confident as a lot of people seem to be that there are/would be. And that’s ignoring the aspects of training, physical ability, etc and just considering interest/desire.
It’s an alt account too, I finally blocked the original account (think it was on lemmus.org) because the instance admins of lemmy.world seem to be dragging their feet on assigning new mods to this community.
The blue colorscheme indicates it’s from one of the non-18+ boards, and /v/ is the one of those that it would fit the most.
Technically you can set any board to any of a bunch of color schemes, but most users just leave the defaults or pick on dark theme for all of them.
Sweet! I just picked LE up and had started looking at mods for my playthrough. These reccomendations will make a nice starting point!
The Doom reboot seems to do a good job with it too. Green lights generally point the way to go.
Thank you! This is something I saw coming as games got more visually detailed and environments got more visually dense. There was this generation of “detective mode”/“spirit vision”/“highlight the important shit” and I remember that in some games it was so constantly necessary to use that to figure out where you needed to go that you spent more time in desaturated rave-land than seeing that actual game.
I feel like decent signposting, guiding the player towards interactables and points of interest, etc is slowly being lost in favor of “toggleable highlight vision” and yellow paint. It’s a fucking video game, use some rim-lighting or a sparkle effect. Point a toppled lamp at the ladder. Either go all in on realistic environments and work harder to direct your players in ways that don’t break immersion or accept some element of “game-ness” and just highlight the objects.
The toggle-able highlight vision fucks with the gameplay flow, and the yellow paint on shit that doesn’t make sense unless an omniscient helper is leading us just breaks immersion and versimilitude for me more than any glowing collectable does.
And for an actual answer, it depends on the games you have and if you have the proper peripherals (memory cards, analog controller for the few games that require or greatly benefit).
Even getting it connected to a modern TV requires an adapter, and while you might be able to get a “good enough” one for cheap online, it’s kind of a shitshow with unreliable cheap crap all over too.
Honestly if anyone is interested in PS1 amd doesn’t already have the “setup” of a decent CRT and the hardware, they’re probably better off emulating on their PC, maybe using a CRT shader.
If you want the “experience”, you’re better off getting a PS2 and soft-modding it. I wouldn’t even know where to start with trying to find a modchip and the right burnable CDs and drive to burn with for the PS1. Modded PS2s are backwards compatible with all but like one very obscure PS1 game, and they can load from an internal hard drive, network, or USB depending on the hardware model.
Good luck with clown school buddy.
