bjoern_tantau, (edited ) to asklemmy in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

How about Wally Gubbins? A series of silly skydiving videos. My father has a ton of them on VHS. I loved it as a kid. I just looked, you can even find them on YouTube. So maybe not that obscure.

In terms of software I remember having several ad games. So, games that are basically just an ad. I had a Bifi game. Some weird game about colours where I don’t remember what it was for. And a “game” about Chesterfield Cigarettes. I remember that I had to install QuickTime Player to run it. It was basically like Google Streetview when you walked into buildings with a few interactive elements put in. No idea where I got it. Might even still have the CD somewhere.

Edit: I found the Chesterfield thing: archive.org/details/see_you

bjoern_tantau, to lemmy_support in Version 0.19.1 outgoing federation issues for anyone else?
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Yeah. Had the problems with 0.19.0. Thought it was fixed with 0.19.1. But I guess it was just the restart that fixed it temporarily. Now I’ve got to remember to check every now and then if my comments federated.

Thanks, didn’t know these things.

I wanted to say that nobody in their right mind would take these seriously. But then I remembered the general state of mind of people.

Plans for a crossbow?

My favourite book is Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. My edition has a foreword about how Lewis Carroll wasn’t really a pedophile. He just had so many pictures of naked kids, spent so much time with them and wanted to marry the real Alice while she was young solely because he had soooo much love for children. Not in a creepy way at all. No no, not at all creepy.

bjoern_tantau, to piracy in [Discussion] Have you ever pirated something because you forgot you own it?
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

I usually play the pirated (abandoned) version of No One Lives Forever because I’m too lazy to deal with the disc.

I hope for your sake they never add bags of holding to the game.

I just use the filters. Manually sorting everything into containers is too much effort for me.

The ambient temperature needs to be significantly lower than body temperature though, because your body is constantly generating heat that has to be dissipated. 36 °C is too hot for a human for long stretches of time.

Edit: And the post doesn’t seem to be about ambient temperature at all.

bjoern_tantau, to asklemmy in Which Youtubers (or on online video sharing platform) have good astronomy/cosmology/astrophysic content
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Especially the early QM videos by Sabine Hossenfelder are great. Lately she’s just researching popular science news which may or may not be correct. But I like that she is at least stating her bias when she has one.

But I cringe every time she has a NordVPN ad.

Forgot to mention Arvin Ash. Sometimes a little bit too clickbaity but overall pretty good. And he will correct himself if he got something wrong which is always a plus.
