Nah, we got them fancy sliding tabs on those. I was talking about loading programs from tape LOL.

Same. I remember needing converters for these newfangled PS/2 connectors. Then again, I am old enough that I remember why floppies were called floppies, and used tape for more than just backup. And hard drives being as big as a shoe box and with less storage than you now have as CPU caches.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Zelensky, Trump hold phone call after Putin pledges to continue war in Ukraine151·3 months agoWow. I am shocked. Who could’ve guessed an expansionist regime would break a truce with the intent to continue their territorial expansion. This must be the first time in recorded history this has happened. /s

ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Australia@aussie.zone•Honest Government Ad | How To Vote 2025English3·5 months agoWe’re quite jealous of your voting system here in upside-down Australia. We just had another “vote strategic” moment that resulted in all of the minor parties losing influence just to keep the conservatives out of power. Trudeau’s biggest lasting failure will be his inability to actually pass vote reform like he promised, and FPTP will eventually result in us graduating from US-light to full on US-two-party-ism.

ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Name a game game: "...and then it ends with you fighting A GOD."2·10 months agoThere is an argument to be made that neither Dagoth Ur not the tribunal are strictly speaking “gods” by Elder Scrolls’ definitions. They have godlike powers thanks to the heart, but they are referred to as false gods by all the Deadric gods you interact with.
Heck, the main quest is basically Azura using you as her vessel to expose the falsity of the Tribunal’s claim to godhood.
Although, if you go one level deeper and you buy into Vivec actually achieving Chim, then it could be argued he is at least as godlike as Talos (who used his understanding of Chim to retcon the actual history of Tamriel). Which is another can of worms, because his godhood is also questioned and the whole reason his worship was outlawed in the white-gold concordant…
Oh Elder Scrolls lore, how I love your convoluted nature.

ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Name a game game: "...and then it ends with you fighting A GOD."26·10 months agoTo some extent the majority of JRPGs fit into this trope. It’s a long running joke that it isn’t a JRPG if you don’t end up fighting a god with the power of friendship.

ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games?English1·10 months agoThe DLC for that game was a trip too. Highly recommend checking it out as it really added to Alan Wake 2 for me.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games?English2·10 months agoI went into Oxenfree completely blind after picking it up for next to nothing on the switch store. Great story with choices that actually matter. OP, do yourself a favor and play this without a guide.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games?English4·10 months agoIt’s almost impossible to have not been bombarded with the main story and setting of Morrowind by this point. But when this game came out, it was an experience and a half. Unlike anything I had seen before at least. Sure, Ultima, TES 2, etc all existed. But none of them had never sold their world so effectively if you ask me.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games?English5·10 months agoDavid Cage gets lots of shit for his games, but If you experience them blind without spoilers ahead of time I find they’re pretty good interactive movies.

I’d say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, but I honestly think he’s actually even less aware than his dad.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Cars - For Car Enthusiasts@lemmy.world•I'll never forgive Mitsubishi for what they did to the EclipseEnglish3·11 months agoSure, but let’s all agree it could be worse.
If it were added to this meme, it’d have a reaction somewhere between the Supra and the Eclipse. Something like “oh, okay”.
ZC3rr0r@lemmy.cato Cars - For Car Enthusiasts@lemmy.world•I'll never forgive Mitsubishi for what they did to the EclipseEnglish7·11 months agoWhat do you mean? At least the new WRX is still a sedan, still AWD, still has a boxer, and can still be bought as a manual.
Sure, it’s making about the same horsepower as 20 years ago, and it got progressively heavier as Subaru needed to add more safety equipment to remain compliant, but it’s nowhere near as bad as Ford and Mitsubishi taking legendary name plates and slapping them on crossover SUVs.
Who could’ve seen that coming from Tulsi “totally not a compromised asset” Gabbard.
