DosDudeAto Adventure / Point-n-Click / Narrative Games•We're beyond excited to share that our Sci-fi Demo where you steal a prototype ship will launch on June 30!!!!! - Please Wishlist it!English4·3 days agoAlways cool to see a developer on lemmy!
It was already wishlisted for me :)
DosDudeAto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL The Netherlands will be the 1st country to have a Fish Migration River!English7·4 days agoIt means closure dyke. If you want keyboard banging, go check the name of the vulcano in Iceland.
DosDudeAto Conservatives@hilariouschaos.com•Holocaust survivor burned in Colorado terror attack speaks out: ‘What the hell is going on in our country?’English2·4 days agoYeah. All respect for her family for dodging the horrible fate of the camps. It was surely not a small feat. And I can’t imagine living in constant fear like that. But I’ve never seen holocaust survivor used before for a person not in, or on their way to the camps.
DosDudeAto Conservatives@hilariouschaos.com•Holocaust survivor burned in Colorado terror attack speaks out: ‘What the hell is going on in our country?’English52·4 days agoSteinmetz was born in Hungary in 2936, but spent her childhood on an island off the coast of Croatia in the Adriatic Sea where her parents ran a hotel, she told the Colorado University Independent, the school’s student newspaper, in 2019.
The island, Lussinpiccol, was owned by Italy at the time.
Once Italian dictator Benito Mussolini declared Jews were no longer citizens in 1938, her family fled back to Hungary and then France two years later.
After the German invasion of France, they were forced to run again to Portugal, where her father applied for asylum in a dozen countries, including the US. Only the Dominican Republic would take them.
Steinmetz and her family lived there for four years until the end of the war when they were able to move to the US. She moved to Boulder sometime in the mid-2000s.
So, she lived through the war, as a time traveler born in 2936, and a jew. But (and I hate to say this) she didn’t survive the holocaust but she evaded it. People surviving the concentration camps survived the holocaust. I didn’t survive 9/11, I just live in another country.
And on topic: don’t hurt people as a protest. It makes you as bad as Israel.
Which is exactly what I did 2 years ago. Turns out the uptime is about the same and the price is higher than 0. But on the upside, if there’s downtime I can (usually) immediately reboot the server.
The server got a little more accounts on there than I initially expected though. But I’m fine with that.
DosDudeMAto MS-DOS gaming•The greatest DOS games that defined the golden generation of DOS gamingEnglish4·5 days agoThere’s always !TipOfMyJoystick@retrolemmy.com if you need to find the title of a game you vaguely remember.
Retrolemmy.com is available, and might be the instance perfect for this.
DosDudeAto Today I Learned (TIL)@lemmit.online•TIL there is One Highway, in the United States, that has road signs in Kilometres and Metres1·6 days agoThe United States has an on and off history of attempting to convert to a nationwide use of weights and measures in the country from the United States customary units (i.e. the use of feet, inches, and pounds) to what is known as the International System of Units which uses units such as centimeters, meters, and kilos.
It’s not kilos, it’s Kilograms. Kilo is not a unit, it’s a multiplication. I know in everyday use these are used interchangeably, but it’s just not a unit.
DosDudeAtoEU_Economics@lemm.ee•More Dutch home owners worried about paying the bills, survey shows - DutchNews.nl1·7 days agoThat’s why we put the mortgage on 30 years instead of the usual 20. When the mortgage is done, the house is paid off. We can pay our current monthly rate, and even though the house was expensive, it’s nothing compared to new neighbors. If we would have bought this house now, instead of 7 years ago, we would barely be able to afford it, even though we have had raises in the meantime.
Black sails is mostly fun episodes though. Or I just mostly had a blast watching them.
9/11 was a one time thing. COVID is an ever evolving disease that was pretty lethal for certain groups of people, and bad shit for the rest. But a disease cannot keep living if it kills the host. Quarantines start, and the disease dies out. So naturally the less lethal evolution survives, because if it doesn’t kill the host, quarantines are less necessary.
COVID is not over. It changed. As did we, by developing vaccines. But the urgency of quarantine because of over full hospitals are gone.
You can be cautious. And if you’re in the risk groups you should. But societal necessity is over. Live your life, and stay at home when you have symptoms.
In Dutch we call it “elephant’s path” (loosely translated of course). And I think that’s beautiful.
DosDudeAto Self Hosted - Self-hosting your services.@lemmy.ml•What's your plan to allow family access to important materials on your servers upon your death? What about for materials you don't want them to access?182·12 days agoYou’re dead. Honestly, if your family finds your porn stash, it’s not the worst thing. In the history of humans men always found a way to hide porn somewhere.
Your “private stash” is also a part of your story. Let them see all.
Not me obviously. I don’t look at porn.
DosDudeAto Satisfactory@lemmy.world•I can't believe I didn't realize this power layout earlier.2·13 days agoI like that. It’s clean. I also like the ceiling method.
No mtx, dedicated servers, easy modding and actually a good product. Yeah, that tracks. These things are almost essential to have a lasting game. It’s the reason games like cs1.6 still go strong. Even for less popular games like jedi knight 2 and jedi academy. They would almost be forgotten if it didn’t check all 4 boxes.
