Pika, in This elevator reuses floor numbers
@Pika@lemmy.world avatar

This is a super simple setup, the elevator has both a north and a south door. but the ground floor (0) only has a north exit meaning that they never added a ground south floor. but they wanted aesthetics over functionality so instead of having an empty button slot and moving everything up, they changed the number so the south wing starts at 1 and north wing at 0

brygphilomena,

They just wanted the floor and room numbers to match up. Instead of starting the south wing at 200, they started it at 100. Kind of dumb, but at least if you have a room number you know which number to press.

My adhd brain can’t handle this

qwertyqwertyqwerty, in Mother Nature Reclaiming an Old French Church

Is there a video game that uses this church as part of a map? I feel in my bones that I have been there in a game before.

Probably not the game you’re thinking; but my first thought was it looked like a place from Hollow Knight

OtisRamflow,

Looks a bit like a location in Day of Defeat source.

FlippyOne,

Definitely Final Fantasy 7

I felt that too, there's absolutely a map just like this in For Honor. Can't recall the name, but the center of it is an overgrown cathedral like this.

TritonForceX,

I was getting strong Gears of War vibes from that picture.

Skullition,

Could be Elden Ring, I had the same thought

Chailles,
@Chailles@lemmy.world avatar

First thought I had was that someone’s already taken the Sacred Tear.

qwertyqwertyqwerty,

I’m thinking it may have been Fallout 76 that I’m thinking of, but I haven’t played since launch.

NewNewAccount,

Looks a lot like the ruined Temple of Time in Zelda BotW.

@Spitfire@pawb.social avatar

This is what I was thinking, too.

charliespider,

Me three

dogebread,

Yep, was thinking “I’ve been on the roof of that” and definitely BotW.

Anticorp,

World of Warcraft, opening area of Northrend, Naga King quest.

Works for me

confusedwiseman, in This elevator reuses floor numbers

Looks like there’s doors on both sides of the elevator. So there could be different businesses on front/back of the building.

dibs, in This elevator reuses floor numbers

The braille’s completely useless too lmao

malloc, in Well well well

Bots run 24/7. Humans only 8 hrs. We can’t win

Anticorp,

If you’re only awake for 8 hours per day, you have a problem and should probably talk to your doctor.

Really interesting. Were there other similar sculptures too?

That’s amazing. Wonder if they all got the flash mob message at the same time… or…

outdated_belated,

Wow, I thought for sure this was DALL-E.

Shows, I suppose how the existence of these things cheapens what would otherwise be a sense of awe or appreciation.

That elevation must make it twice as chilly

WarmSoda, in Santiago, the capital of Chile, and the Andes Mountains

Nature is beautiful. Majestic mountain ranges. Sharp pavement roads. Concrete everywhere. The tiniest touch of green regulated to little parks. Not another animal in sight except for pigeons finding trash in vacant parking lots. Sometimes I like to sit on a porch and really take in all the air, noise, and light pollution. Ah

DiagnosedADHD,

Yeah I can’t help but feel so frustrated seeing people develop places like this. In order to support wildlife they need valleys as well as mountains. You can’t just build on every strip of usable land because a lot of animals need to graze and nest there too.

scv,

Then you should do some reading. Latin America is the most urban region in the world.

We have small pockets with high density like Santiago. It has 1/3 of the population of NYC but 150% of the population density. And NYC is by far the densest US city.

The result of this is wide swaths of nature, I grew up used to seeing no buildings or anything else man made all the way to the horizon. When approaching my hometown we would first see the city glow, because you get actual darkness out in the country. In the US’ lower 48 only part of Oregon and Nevada get close to that.

Of course now US companies are once again trying to destroy our land with careless mining.

DiagnosedADHD,

I’m glad to hear that’s not the case! I was speaking on my own experience living out west in the US where there is still a lot of public land. The attitude in the western US is unfortunately pretty bad. They want more and more public land to develop into low density single family home markets like Phoenix. It’s pretty infuriating hearing the locals moan about BLM and concoct conspiracies about how they stole land from them and show zero interest in the health of the local wildlife.

There’s still quite a bit of untouched land in Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Navajo, basically anywhere that has large amounts of BLM land, but this unfortunately is getting pushback from locals who want everything to be developed.
