that feeling when you find a really neat animal and think "oh well it's probably endangered or something, all the good ones are" and then nope!! it's least concern!!

fun fact: etymologically speaking, resurrect just means "get up again"

Oh no, steam sale D: we don't have any money right now

do you get different breeds of steel-type pokemon with different steel compositions?

can you have a purebred ASTM 316 lucario, or a carbon steel mixed breed magnemite

Nachos are basically just taco salad with more tortilla chips and less lettuce.

*thinks about hyena-lizard hybrids*

It feels like they ought to be a good compromise between fitting larger flash chips on them and physical size of the card, but I guess they failed before that became a thing worth caring about

what happened to mini SD cards anyway, and why did they disappear when both micro and regular stuck around?

the solid programming of old video games like pokemon and zelda 2 is really damn impressive considering how completely broken they are. you can play through those games in their entirety and never encounter a single glitch, and yet if you know what to do you can rearrange reality by shuffling items around in your pack or by going into a door that doesn't exist

learned today that there was a tenth-century german duke who was utterly _hated_ by the people for how he just appropriated church resources for himself and guess what epithet he got? the Terrible? the Church-thief? no, he's called Arnulf the Bad.

why yes thank you this is useful information and tells me where the package is

splatoon calls it ink but everything we've seen of it suggests that it's really more of a paint

*opens mouths, termina field music plays*

I'm not even sure if this is funny or if it's actually deep

apparently google translate now has a "how satisfied were you with your google translate experience" popup and uh. what

Language is just telepathy with an intermediate step.

I make symbols on a screen, you read symbols on a screen, and suddenly my thoughts are in your thoughts.

I make sounds, you hear sounds, and suddenly my thoughts are in your thoughts.

Most of the things I'm into I like because of how they expand possibilities. Multiple arms to allow you to do more things at once, multiple heads to let you look in several directions at once--and that comes with multiple brains to let you process multiple things at once. Modularity to let you change things out for different things, or just free your heads from their prison atop your necks.

I like to think that with four ears, each pair would have a different tuning to extend the audible range. Maybe a larger pair of ears that can hear 10~10000 Hz sounds, and a slightly smaller pair in front that can hear 40~40000 Hz sounds.

Likewise, multiple specialized sets of eyes can be neat as well. A pair of eyes that sees between 800~450nm in conjunction with a pair that can see between 650~300nm, for instance.

However little sense that makes biologically.

huh. there's apparently a switch release of baldur's gate, neverwinter nights, and planescape:torment

you're all good people and I care about you a lot, I hope you know that

this is directed at pretty much everyone I follow and especially those I talk to, you're all good
