Anyone read Arthur C. Clarke’s short story “Watch This Space” where a giant Coke logo is lit up on the moon? It was meant to be funny, not instructional. Sigh. “Torment Nexus” and all that, I suppose.

To grab your save data. The purchased games themselves disappear on June 10th. There will still be a selection of games to stream (Game Pass/Xcloud style) after that date, but you have to wonder how long that’ll last.
- Comment on Amazon Just ERASED Your Library. You Have 90 Days. 4 days ago:
On June 10th any game purchases people made through Amazon’s Luna service will be removed. On June 3rd they’re ending the “bring your own library” feature where you could link to certain outside accounts (GOG, etc.) and get those to stream on Luna.

The new game coming in June, just called Starfox. It’s yet another remake of Starfox 64.

Also that one Shredder flight in TMNT4 where you throw everyone’s at the screen.

Apparently a spoon left on your laptop trackpad can trick Teams into thinking you’re still there and never marking you as “away”.

I was winding down to go to sleep, so I put that off for a few minutes. I don’t want to oversell the effort involved though. It was less than 10 minutes of refining search queries and scouring a handful of message threads for related info.
Or maybe I spend too much time online. :)

Wish I could take credit, but it’s good old search engine work. I searched for bathroom basins and came across several discussions of this same picture. Among all the jokes and random ideas was that link above that finally explained it.

A planter for fake plants. Apparently it was a fad in the 50s and 60s.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | 1x01 "Kids These Days" & 1x02 "Beta Test" 4 months ago:
There were several lines in both episodes that I felt needed another take. Besides a few awkward pronunciations, I lost track of how many lines had strange pacing or weirdly-placed pauses in the middle of sentences.

Yeah, it would have helped if Visual Capitalist had included that bit of info. Their source is this page on the Video Game Sales Wiki, which does say “The following titles are the best-selling games released in the 2020s, as of 2025.”.

Yeah, that’s usually the term. Also, it doesn’t see much action, but: !cassettefuturism@lemmy.world
- Comment on Pokémon Lazarus: When a Fan Game Becomes a Conversation 6 months ago:
I still have my doubts that was the majority of the issue, at least the first time they “won” that award in 2012. That poll happened 1 month after Mass Effect 3’s release, when emotions were still raw over people’s disappointment with the game’s ending. That’s not to defend those who were voting for EA over, say, Nestle or any number of other awful companies. But most of what I saw was immature lashing out to punish anyone perceived as responsible for the writing. I remember people cheering they’d managed to harass EA’s tech support Twitter account into closing, like they’d made some great moral victory. It was all pretty gross.

Henchman 24: Come on! They have one female servicing a large group of males. That implies a species that lays eggs.
Henchman 21: Oh my God, you’re crazy! They’re so obviously mammals!
Henchman 24: Please! She’d be in estrus 24/7 if she didn’t lay eggs.
Henchman 21: Smurfs don’t lay eggs! I won’t tell you this again! Papa Smurf has a fucking beard! They’re mammals!

You can’t start a sentence with that and not expect me to get distracted thinking of a certain theme song.

And now that I’ve had some more time to think: what was up with the modern music this season? It was distracting and took me out of the story every time.

Yeah, the whole discussion about Batel’s combined genetic memories just happened way too quickly. I might have been on board with the explanation, but it really took me out of the episode to see how they rushed through figuring out everything. No time for untangling a mystery, let’s dash off to the next bit.
