Did something similar to this with one of those “speed up silence” plugins. It was hard to notice cuz dialog was still 1x…

Oh, gotcha. That makes a lot more sense. And yeah, you’re probs right, though it is a bit hard to tell at that angle.
The woman on the right could totally be Gen Z imo.
I like the meme, but I do feel it misunderstood the format a bit. There’s no rules for memes, but I think a lot of the humor is derived from the typical structure of this meme.
From what I’ve seen, it’s usually the older woman saying something that makes sense to our generation, be it a cultural reference, a current event or some slang phrase.
Then the younger woman dismisses it as the older woman just losing her marbles, playing along and then saying “let’s get you to bed”.
Imo the humor is mainly derived from that disconnect— we, the viewer, understand what the older woman is saying perfectly fine, but also recognize that it is contextual, and a younger person may be confused by it.
This meme isn’t bad, but it does stray from that format. It comes across more as a respectful conversation between two people that understand and care about each other. I’d argue that the humor of this one is moreso about the (unfortunate) relatability of the dialog. It does use the ages of the characters well though, since the conversation is focused on generational differences.
also aw man I just deconstructed an internet meme huh?
Oh? So I take it you look at a lot of Gen Z women, huh? 😏
Nah I’m just playin. But being real, lots of Gen Z are adults now. The woman on the right could totally be Gen Z imo.

SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Gaming@beehaw.org•Riot will let gambling companies sponsor League Of Legends and Valorant esports teams0·16 days agoWait, so let me get this straight… this AAA studio, which is a subsidiary of Tencent, which sells microtransactions for sometimes up to nearly $100, and which has incorporated gambling elements and predatory design in their games for years, has now allowed sponsorships with gambling companies in their esports scene? Color me surprised!
Oh, but it’s really for the benefit of the community and players, since it would happen anyways. And It’s certainly not primarily motivated by the huge profits it could rake in. Right. How noble of them.
I’m sure they have a history of treating their players and employees very well, too.

SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Linux@lemmy.ml•Are there any examples of Linux (desktop) viruses that are actively or were recently in circulation?0·20 days agoAll good! You’re still totally right; outside of the context, Linux has quite the user base with servers, embedded devices, and even phones, if we count Android. I think that’s relevant because it means we can’t rely on “security by obscurity”.
SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Linux@lemmy.ml•Are there any examples of Linux (desktop) viruses that are actively or were recently in circulation?0·21 days agoI haven’t heard of any such cases, but it is a smaller pool of users. Also, many desktop Linux users know more about using a computer than other operating system users, since it’s less common for Linux to come preinstalled. So that may affect it, too.
I imagine vulnerabilities with the Linux kernel or common utilities do apply to desktop users as well, which is a good reminder why staying up-to-date is important. But to my understanding, exploiting remotely would need a way of sending data to the target. And most desktop computers won’t have ports open to the internet for anyone like servers will.
I know that Wayland’s design does make it more difficult for a user-mode program to act maliciously, like as key-loggers or reading the clipboard.
SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•skate. from EA coming soon on Steam in EA [Early Access]English0·25 days agoYou don’t see that everyday on PC! I don’t really mind it personally… at very least, the game’s got bigger issues on the horizon imo. Life service and EA~
Do they use much electricity/processing power when they are idle, or only really when they’re being queried?
Yeah… Apex Legends dropped Linux support a while ago and that’s one of the reasons they cited; and tbf, there were publicly available Linux cheats that ran under proton.
But there’s also loads of publicly available “external” cheats that run the way you described. Some run through a virtual machine even. It’s just not a robust solution for preventing cheating, and mostly hurts the legit Linux players.
SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Box64 v0.3.6 running on an ARM64 Ampere Altra with 128 cores and an RTX 4060English21·1 month agoThe framerates do seem a bit low to me, but box64 is emulating a 64-bit cpu on an arm cpu, right? So a very complex instruction set working on a risc chip. That’s quite the feat… and the frametimes look pretty stable. Looking forward to see this keep developing into the future!
SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Remedy announces very friendly minimum specs for its co-op Control spinoff, FBC: FIrebreak. You only need a GTX 1070 for 1080 60 FPS play.English0·1 month agoYeah, that’s not bad! Now, that is with quality upscaling, so not at native 1080p. And on low settings, which we’re yet to see how that looks.
But yeah, compared to most of the industry (even themselves with AW2), this is a pleasant surprise! It makes me more open to trying it, since I find shooters on kbm to benefit greatly from higher framerates.
Anyways, I’m not expecting call of duty or cs2 framerates. Lower quality options in those games tend to look pretty presentable, and framerates can get past 120 fps depending on the rig and settings. This game isn’t PvP, though, and I think this middle ground between performance and quality is a great fit for PvE. Helldivers II is where my mind goes (except this game will have half-competent upscaling).

SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Gaming@beehaw.org•Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of March 30th0·3 months agoI started a Minecraft modpack called “Raspberry Flavoured”. It stood out to me because it boldly reworks many vanilla mechanics, while focusing on keeping a mostly vanilla playstyle. Villagers, the end, XP and enchanting, all completely removed. It reworks early game progression to use copper in place of stone, and copper has now become one of the most useful resources. It does have Create, so late game looks like it’ll be heavy on automation. The recipes are changed so early game still has mining, chopping and smelting. But it’s a breath of fresh air so far and the mods are incredibly well integrated!
SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Seriously clever twin-stick shooter Windowkill adds Steam Deck supportEnglish7·5 months agoThat surprises me to hear that gamescope doesn’t have issues with it, seeing as it’s not designed for managing floating windows. Does the game implement its own window system, or does gamescope have a window system?
SmoochyPit@lemmy.cato Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Blocking Linux / Steam Deck in Apex Legends led to a 'meaningful reduction' in cheatersEnglish26·5 months ago(Replying to myself) Even if these numbers are legit, we don’t know the process or exact metrics used.
This data may include falsely banned players on Linux (which was reported before they restricted Linux) and may exclude many cheaters on Windows (any of those who weren’t caught). We don’t know.
I think the concept of Game Pass works best for older or smaller games. Charging $60+ for a game makes people expect a certain level of quality and amount of content.
Putting games like that on it though? Especially day-one? Of course their sales are gonna take a hit!
Hi-fi Rush would be my example of a super polished game with a solid amount of content. It reviewed incredibly well; so much so that I bought the game on Steam because of the hype. But most people with game pass just played it there… and they ended up shutting down the studio.
I think for brand new releases, some kind of demo or limited access could work. Give players the Call of Duty campaign, give us the opening chapters of story-driven games, or give us a limited selection of levels for games formatted like that. Leave some incentive, though, for players to buy the game, especially if it’s a good game that players would be convinced to buy by playing a bit.
