gerryflap, to gaming in Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of May 26th
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

I got randomly recommend “Kena: Bridge of Spirits” recently by Steam and decided to go for it. I just finished the story and it was definitely a good recommendation. Hard enough to make me work for it, which I always like. It is kinda short though, finished it in like 12 hours. It’s a bit janky at times with the camera and jumping, but overall a great experience.

Yeah that’s probably why it’s so noticeable to me as well. I’m not exactly counting calories yet, but I’ve been trying to reduce the amount of excess carbs and calories in my meals. So seeing this is quite the shock.

600 cal?! Sjeesh. Puts into perspective how overkill desserts like these are. I just ran for an hour and (according to my watch) burned like 800-900 cal, which I don’t fully trust. One of these bad boys would probably undo all of the hard work

gerryflap, to mildlyinfuriating in Thanks. That was what I was looking for.

What’s wrong? I find this a reasonable result. Most people looking for megabyte to bytes are actually looking for mebibytes, since the mega- prefix is literally just times a million but a lot of programs actually list mebibytes as “megabytes”.

Idk, I’m not really into pop, hip hop, etc. and I also get the feeling that they weren’t as big here in the Netherlands as they were in the states. I’m also very much on the young end of the “millennial” range. I’ve just listened some of their stuff, and I recognise some of it vaguely. But definitely not enough not remember their name.

Nooooo. Maybe gen Z will accept me (as long as they can keep calling me a boomer)

@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

Might be, I was born in the mid 90’s, so I’m quite young for a millennial I guess.

gerryflap, (edited ) to memes in Greek letters too!
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

I’d like to see anyone build a plane, computer, or any other complex object without having some way to represent variable values in math and without using any math derived using variables. It’s kind of a fundamental thing to have. As a programmer I do sometimes get a bit annoyed with math people using single character variables everywhere though.

EDIT: Additionally, the use of the Greek alphabet is kinda handy. After my first years in university I started to be able to finally decode the stuff my Greek family gave me. Though initially it sucked, because I understood the math but had no idea what character the “gamma” or “lambda” were.

gerryflap, to asklemmy in What would you do if you could unconditionally duplicate yourself?
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

I probably wouldn’t. Over time the multiple versions of me would diverge in terms of experiences and opinions. And knowing how stubborn I can sometimes be I’d probably get very annoyed with my own clones, which in turn will make me dislike myself more. It’ll force me to perceive my own behaviour as an outsider, which will make me judge myself even harder.

One of me is enough :3

I’m a millennial and I’ve never heard of Cypress Hill. Looks like it’s more of an American thing after I looked it up.

I wouldn’t be so sure if I were you. Everyone, and I mean everyone, uses WhatsApp here. Friends, family, work, doctors, landlords, etc. Not using WhatsApp will make you miss get togethers with friends, make it way harder to communicate with colleagues, take away a lot of convenience when talking to your doctor or landlord or something.

I have Signal groups with friends, but you’re never going to be able to fully lose WhatsApp here unless you’re prepared to be “that person” everywhere and miss a lot of convenience.

gerryflap, to games in Microsoft announces the Proteus Controller, a gamepad for Xbox gamers with disabilities
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

Microsoft does a lot of bad things, but I got to give it to them here. Their push for accessibility in gaming is definitely a good thing. They’ve been pushing multiple modular controllers in order to allow people with disabilities to play games in a comfortable way. Having the support of a major player in the gaming market like Microsoft will definitely help with support for these products.

gerryflap, to lemmyshitpost in Mhhhh hagelslag
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

I don’t understand how other countries manage to remain civilised without eating a broodje hagelslag regularly.

gerryflap, to 196 in rule of cool
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

Hmmm, if this were in proportion to body volume then it may lead to an infinite cycle of the ice cream getting larger -> the body getting larger -> the icecream getting larger -> etc. Depending on the frequency of course.

gerryflap, to mildlyinfuriating in Euro bottles are so much better now
@gerryflap@feddit.nl avatar

Hmmm yeah, now that you mention it I do remember a few occasions of launching soy milk throughout the kitchen. Still I prefer it over the second one though. After it’s been opened once, it’s much less in the way.
