I think that’s just identical twins, but fraternal twins are two separate eggs being fertilized, which is how you can have twins of different sexes
- Comment on Epic Games Store will get a Linux version sometime "soon" 5 days ago:
It was kinda annoying that you had to fight for it. I can’t imagine how many people who put down the game for a few years and checked up on it to find the Linux version is no longer supported and they’re beyond the point to request a refund.

According to TinEye, this image was from at least 2019, and I don’t think it was decriminalized back then? Wikipedia has some info from a few years earlier where they cite a survey saying a majority of all police recorded drug offences in the UK were for possession of cannabis.

- Comment on Trying to flash 256GB image to almost 256GB flash drive, space is barely not enough! 1 week ago:
I think it’s pretty common for less reputable storage manufactures to have a drive which reports to be a certain size, but trying to read data back from some sectors doesn’t work. There is this windows tool to check the drive: www.grc.com/validrive.htm
- Comment on Is there a place where I can ask questions specifically about Lemmy? Is here fine? 2 weeks ago:
I’d search your community list for “Fediverse” or “Lemmy” and check the description and subscriber count for what seems like a best fit. For example, I’d assume your questions would be welcome in !Fediverse@piefed.social and get many eyeballs

Found someone who downloaded it if you’re itching to watch it before Youtube puts it back up: drive.google.com/file/d/…/view
- Comment on Johnny Depp's Bed | Bobby Fingers 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, i just saw that, I watched the whole thing through when it premiered before even posting, and the only thing I assume was some paintings in the background, but they weren’t sexualized. I’m sure it’ll be back soon.

- Comment on IEEE 754 2 weeks ago:
think Maxima gives answers as fractions by default, but didn’t know how that worked.
It’s likely based on the theory of continued fractions and the calculator has a limit to the maximum denominator allowed to return an approximation of the fraction.

- Comment on If you want to get shit done, what are effective alternatives to voting in the American Federal election system? 3 weeks ago:
Always vote in primaries for local politicians, not just general election, especially every 4 years. Despite some of the shitheads with power right now, there’s been some huge upsets and more progressive candidates getting nominated and/or elected.
- Comment on Its about perspective 3 weeks ago:
I think Johnny Craig did artwork for Tales from the Crypt, but maybe it was commissioned for a goosebumps cover? I didn’t do much digging but found the auction and sketches to be the most interesting and wanted to share it.
- Comment on Its about perspective 3 weeks ago:
The work is World’s Scariest Ride by Johnny Craig. Apparently according to this auction, “Johnny Craig was commissioned for a painting in 1994, and these are the concept sketches and some of the more detailed final sketches showing different P.o.V. and distance from the subject.”

- Comment on What is the smartest non boss enemy in a video game 4 weeks ago:
Not an enemy, but Kaepora Gaebora (the owl) from The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. Feels like every time you talk with him and try to skip the dialog by mashing A, the question changes and you get stuck having to hear him repeat what he was saying.
- Comment on this absolute bullshit from reddit 4 weeks ago:
hmmm, maybe it’s the extension that’s not passing the referrer information in my case? I am using “Old Reddit Redirect”. The URL in that search result still shows
www.reddit.comwhen I hover over the link, and when I open it and the browser extension changes the URL toold.reddit.comwhich is where I get the login prompt.I guess other extensions might rewrite the link destination, but then that would require more access to the extension to read/write the contents of every site visited, which is too much for me.
- Comment on this absolute bullshit from reddit 4 weeks ago:
OP showed a screenshot for
old.reddit.comwhich is the older UI from ~2014. I have a rewrite rule in an extension that turns all reddit links into this to get the better old UI even when clicking through from a search engine result, and got the same message a few hours ago. - Comment on this absolute bullshit from reddit 4 weeks ago:
Porque no los dos? Of course don’t feed reddit with content for them to sell, or aimlessly browse the frontpage. If you need information on a niche subject, or refer to something that happened in 2011, don’t burden yourself to avoid reddit. Just set yourself to be in read only mode with ad blockers to the max so you get more from them then they get from you.

- Comment on If the movie Falling Down with Michael Douglas was made today in these times would it be too meta on the current society? Or would it be seen as trying to push an agenda? 1 month ago:
Some of that plot sounds like You Were Never Really Here which is a great movie though, although less of a critique of modern society like Falling Down is, and more about a guy destroying a human trafficking network.

Didn’t he snap because he was in traffic to work and his AC broke, and then at a corner store, the clerk wouldn’t give him change so he could use a payphone? The McDonald scene is iconic, but by that part, he’s already smashed up a convenience store and stolen a gun from a gang, so he was beyond snapped.

Ok that makes sense. Still it sounds like he was regurgitating the findings of a study of frog behavior in polluted environments, and then creating a conspiracy theory around it. How was anything he added correct information on top of the preexisting evidence?
