I always see white and gold I’ve never been able to see black and blue

yup, definitely a weird choice for grouping but also not random

Ah rip i knew i should have looked it up instead of relying on my memory, thanks.

AD is Anno Domini, “In The Year Of Our Lord” which is why it (is supposed to) start at the Birth of Jesus. The monk did get his dates wrong and Jesus was actually born in like 3~4 AD

they also make cameras for adults without phones on them

I don’t think that’s AI

that’s what I was told

do you think that a half dozen lemmy users are capable of changing the voting system?

there have been some initiatives passed in some states, but thats only half the election. And the people in power benefit from a first past the post voting system, so transitioning out is slow work. It is possible, and it is happening, but there’s not a magic button that says “swap to superior voting method” that a single socialist can press

I’ll throw in my most recent guilty pleasure is Space Battleship Yamato. I didn’t grow up with the original so I’m currently re-watching the 2012 remake. But for fun at the start I watched episode one of the original Yamato, Star Blazers (70s American localization) and the remake in the same day just to compare, which was a cooler experience than I expected it to be.

Great show if you think One Punch Man would be better if Saitama was a spaceship

Warframe is great but you can’t do 95% of the story missions multiplayer

THAT’S how I’m supposed to get ten years of experience in a five year old technology

quantity over quality is a pretty effective scam technique, it’s hard to get money from experienced technical users. So the initial hook is sometimes designed to intentionally be obvious to those users so they know to ignore it, so that the scammers don’t waste their resources on the later stages of the scam

i spend my days in a big black unmarked van

that’s federation for you

it’s a mastodon toot, those are tags

got an email during university that I had been given access to an array of digital resources for free, all I had to do was link my university email credentials. Only after I had already done that did I realize how sketchy it was, but then it did actually turn out to be legit. Wish i remembered/still had access I remember there being some good stuff on there
