Digimon Story Time Stranger Introduces Inori Misono And Aegiomon in c/jrpg@lemmy.zip
[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

How might the "Aegio" in Aegiomon be pronounced?

Perhaps malleerphobia? Or if being formal-ish, anaspectaphobia?

What are some single-player card video games like Hearthstone or Magic: The Gathering Arena without microtransactions? in c/likethismaylike@lemm.ee

Space-based has me interested, I'll give it a look!

Thanks for the heads-up! I'll have to give it a try.

Oh, no offline version I take it? 😔

Slay the Spire is great for sure, but for this I'm asking about deckbuilders with the style of deck-vs.-deck like Magic. In other words opponents use cards as well, and you may unlock the cards they use yourself as you play.

Monster Train is close to this, but has its own spin leaning into roguelike design as well.

Thanks! However I was asking about single-player games without microtransactions.

As in put into regular use and understood in all the various ways they may come to be understood. As compared to a word that one makes up in private that only they understand and may never pass from them into use by anyone else, particularly with their personal understanding/meaning.

However this is meant as a fun question, so you may answer with your ideal conditions in mind. The question is meant to provide a starting point, not set any strict bounds or punitive conditions.

On further thought, adding a couple words to the already kinda long question wasn't too much. I adjusted it to better ask what I had in mind, which was what invented words would you make and have instantly adopted.

[Biology] Are there terrestrial animals with largely elastic skeletal systems? in c/askscience@lemmy.world
[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thanks to you & @Brokkr@lemmy.world for your replies. Not sure why but this curiosity was lingering in mind so I thought I'd put the question out there in case there might be some really unique example of such an organism.

I guess it'd have to be a very unique environment to drive such an adaptation, which would be fascinating in itself.

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

You've understood it right! I wasn't thinking of invertebrates as I was really curious if there might be something strange in-between, but given the other replies here mentioning the same, I think invertebrates may be the closest known of currently.

What metrics did people evaluate arcade games by when they were popular? in c/retrogaming@lemmy.world
[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

That's what I was thinking might be the case for players, alongside the fun/new factors Jordan mentions. Thanks for the reply!

With cheat/game codes mostly gone, what do people use instead for their single-player games (that don't involve microtransactions)? (lemm.ee)
 

Cheat codes were such a nice option for games with highly questionable difficulty or progression.

What are some of your online shopping alternatives to major storefronts like Amazon (for physical items or digital)? (lemm.ee)

Example configs for Qemu on Windows for a 64bit system? (lemm.ee)
 

I've managed to run a barebones virtual machine with Qemu to see how it works, but find myself a little lost with the finer details. Either what I look up seems outdated, or the documentation seems somewhere between out of my depth or lacking in clear examples of putting it all together.

If you have a standard system config command that may be a good reference, it'd be much appreciated!

Is there a way to submit issues for software on Github without creating a Github account? (lemm.ee)

What do you enjoy sharing with others, or providing guidance about (besides the fediverse)? (lemm.ee)
89
What are some examples of original fediverse software, not emulating existing platforms? (lemm.ee)
 

Put another way, what are some examples of software built with federation in mind from the start, rather than on top of a more centralized design?

91
Why isn't free stuff (public domain/noncommercial) discussed as much as paid stuff? (lemm.ee)
 

Also by free I mean without ads or similar annoyances.

How might you address the "No such thing as bad press" issue in criticism? (lemm.ee)

In other words, regardless of a piece being critical, it's still providing attention to and spreading awareness of its subject.

68
What are some of the non-technical parts of the fediverse that appeal to you? (lemm.ee)
 

By technical I'm referring mainly to ActivityPub/federation as well as the ability to host your own instances and related details.

Do you like the Wiki format? Have you heard of personal wikis? (feather.wiki)
 

Personal wikis vary but are roughly similar to Wikipedia and related projects, but built (or modified) for individual, desktop or local use. If that interests you, alongside the post link to Feather Wiki, you might also like the following:

More traditional wiki but adjusted for personal, portable use:
DokuWiki on a Stick

Also if these interest you, check out the !pkms@lemmy.blahaj.zone and !journaling@sh.itjust.works communities!

Did you like Geocities back when it was around? Have you heard of Neocities? (neocities.org)
 

From the Neocities about page:

Neocities is bringing back the fun, creativity and independence that made the web great.

We are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. It's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again.

That's where Neocities comes in. We provide a canvas for people to make any web site they want. Whether it be a web site about something they're good at, something they love, something they hate, or their own completely customized profile where they can introduce themselves in a way that actually matters to them.
