Lmao.
For anyone who actually cares, Wolverine the comic book character was first written in 1974. This frog was first discovered in the early 1900s, but it’s skin-piecing bone claw mechanism wasn’t discovered until 2008. It’s nickname of “wolverine frog” is 100%, definitively, objectively, named after the comic book character, and not the other way around.

So you’re trying to say that the frog may have been named after the comic book character then?
- Comment on Also literally known as the Horror Frog 3 days ago:
Do you think it’s been called “wolverine frog” since the moment it existed?

There are NFL prospects that don’t put up 8-12 reps at 225 during the combine, and those dudes are borderline superhuman. Like I know this is a joke thread on a meme post, but I just wanted to provide some context on just how difficult it actually is to bench press 225 pounds (really really really hard)

Windows 11 has evolved to a point where it works just really, really well when used on dedicated hardware.
In what reality? Because it’s certainly not the one I exist in

If the fediverse is shedding users, it’s because we still haven’t figured out a better way to explain federation other than “it’s like email”, the process of choosing an instance is vague and daunting, the process of moving to a new instance is vague and daunting, and people instance-police incessantly, creating a feeling that you have to choose the correct instance. That, plus the pervasive misogyny that rears its ugly head every once in a while.
I promise you though, people being “unwelcoming” by using silly terms is not why the fediverse is shedding users.

developpers might look at making games playable on less powerful hardware
Yes, please let this lead to devs focusing on efficiency again. I don’t need real time physics simulations and “lifelike” facial animations that still haven’t found a way out of the uncanny valley after like two decades.
I want snappy load times, download and install sizes in the tens of gigabytes, not hundreds, consistent frame rates even when there’s a lot going on on the screen. I have more VRAM than God, yet I still get stuttering in some games on high graphics settings. It’s pathetic.

Just the other day I watched some luxury SUV sitting dumbfounded in a left turn lane with an ambulance flashing lights and blaring the horn behind it. Oh yeah, the left turn lane was the one that led to the emergency room parking lot. I wish that bike messenger was around then

I install whatever I want on my Linux desktop without thinking about it, and the file browser is still as fast as it was the day I installed it (really fast). I don’t have to do regular housekeeping to ensure basic functionality remains performant.
If the operating system is architected in such a way that simply installing things (you know, one of the main reasons to have a computer) degrades the performance of basic functionality, that’s a problem with the operating system.

Something is basic as an operating system’s file browsing program shouldn’t degrade in performance over time, and the solution for that degradation shouldn’t be reinstalling the operating system.

A game can be either great or awful, with no more room for meh games.
I think it’s more just that expectations are much higher for a AAA studio like Bethesda. They built so much hype and asked for nearly $100 at launch for a game that didn’t live up. There’s plenty of meh games out there, they’re just priced accordingly. There’s also a ton of really great games out there priced way lower than what AAA studios are asking. I think it’s very fair to hold those studios to a standard that reflects the prices they’re charging.
