The comic is about RAM, not storage. The 2600 was unique in that it had no RAM and needed to process everything in-between each scan line on the same chip.

41·1 year agoThe fact that this is Gene Wilder immediately gets my approval. The Tim Burton / Johnny Depp version of this comic just didn’t hit the same. 😑

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•It's an older code Sir, but it still checks outEnglish
14·1 year agoYep. Forever immortalized as one of the original Internet memes, in a good way too.
Yeah… no. And looking at the weird framed photo in the background I think this was more for a marketing thing. Perhaps a music band the kids liked back in the day?
Or it’s AI.
I like how this is the future version of getting a send-off by the USS Constitution

21·2 years agoNice. You got a good dad joke here. Enjoy your up-toot!
I got a good laugh on this take on the FF XI experience. And then I laughed again when I saw this was an AI image of a 20 year old game.

45·2 years agoThe best DMs are the ones that can adapt and come up with stuff on the fly. The only guaranteed thing is that the players are idiots and will try and punch a NPC in the tavern on day 1… throwing your well planned story out the window.
Yes, your escrow can go up that much if your property tax, school tax, or in some cases insurance had a sudden jump in value or changes in what can be claimed. It varies by area and loan, but isn’t unheard of.
I get the joke, but did the person writing this have a stroke halfway through writing it?
I’m trying to remember when I last had a real “free trial” and not these “give me your credit card subscription scams”. A bonafide “try our thing for real” situation made me buy it.
Free food or drinks for sure. Maybe a newspaper or magazine when I was a kid?
While I don’t follow the current eSports Call of Modern War Battle shooter game, I believe they may be making fun of certain team players of said game who called themselves “Lethal Company”… but now this name is more commonly associated with a different online multiplayer indie game that is more popular.
Although I could be wrong. I am not an AI

Games@sh.itjust.works•Valorant on PS5 won’t support gyro aiming, to ensure Xbox players aren’t at a disadvantageEnglish
6·2 years agoGyro support on XInput has been on PC gamers wishlist for awhile.
XInput is a solid standard (especially if you look at the state of gaming in the pre 2000’s) but it is in need of an update…
I appreciate the hi-resolution photo. I did a double-take when the image loaded like a dial-up JPG from GeoCities.

Yep! Welcome to the unfiltered real internet… (and I’m saying that as a positive thing).

Firefox@lemmy.ml•Mozilla downsizes as it refocuses on Firefox and AI: Read the memo | TechCrunchEnglish
111·2 years agoThat may have been the intention but I can’t find any which have panned out. Mozilla is straddling that weird line of operating both a non-profit and for-profit entity… and as a for-profit incubator for the next big thing, they have a pretty terrible track record.

Firefox@lemmy.ml•Mozilla downsizes as it refocuses on Firefox and AI: Read the memo | TechCrunchEnglish
582·2 years agoHonestly I’m actually a little happy about this. I feel Mozilla needs to focus on its core job of advancing its browser and web standards so we don’t get stuck with Chromium-only world (like when us old timers had to deal with Internet Explorer holding the majority market share).
These side projects like running VPN services and social networks may have the best intentions but have had to pull from their limited resources. I would prefer they get spun off as separate projects instead of pulling resources from the parent company.








Pretty sure you have another device registered with Authenticator here, and it is asking you to verify against that.
It would be bad if somebody could just steal your username/password and then register their own MFA, right?
