This unironically sounds awesome, I would go to this event.

I’m sure there’s some external influence, too. My corpse tolerance would be a lot different if it’s extremely hot outside than if it’s chilly. If I’m at risk of heat stroke, I’d maybe even swim with a corpse making audible noise. If I’m physically on fire, I definitely would.

Maybe the real question is, “How large would a corpse have to be to stop you from swimming in the pool?”

It’s only really noteworthy because it affects everyone at the same time. If everyone had an individual outage for the same duration at a random time, it wouldn’t even be noticeable in most cases.

Well, the fact that 87% of the respondents were from Canada already proves that it isn’t representative. Was the survey posted to lemmy.ca, perhaps?

I don’t have a better survey to share, but I think we could probably do better than this if we re-ran the survey now and made sure it was publicized on all major instances / communities.

And if you want to know where they used to be, not where they are, you have to ask “Wherewerewerewolves?”

Velcro on the back of the clipboard and on the side of the cart? Stick the clipboard to it for easy retrieval, and you don’t have to carry a bag.

I’m not familiar with open typer, klavaro or gnu typist, but there’s nothing particularly complicated about making a typing game. However, you simply aren’t providing enough information for anyone to really be able to offer advice. What are you actually needing help with? Do you have any sort of plan for how you want this hypothetical game to work?

I guess technically holding the door is minimizing the damage. It’s not like they’re going to try to stop the robbers, but this way, they’re preventing the glass door or windows from being damaged.

I remember almost nothing else about that game, but I remember that level vividly; it kept me awake the night after I played it. It was a complete non-sequitur in the context of the rest of the game, but holy shit, did it ever accomplish what they set out to do.

Not about thief 1 or 2, but a fun piece of Thief trivia is that Thief: Deadly Shadows (the third game in the franchise, from 2004), completely unexpectedly, has a level that routinely makes “scariest levels in video games” lists, despite Thief not being a horror game.

Are we looking at the same image? DO I NEED TO GET A RULER?

However, the comment was talking about arrows…

There are basically two schools of thought…

Then the distance must be almost zero, as it exhibits no drop over that range.

I play D&D whenever I can find a group to play with, and kobolds have long been my favorite ‘race’ to play as, so I’ve accumulated a collection of kobold characters. Many of the folks I chat with online know me through that lens, so I made it my online identity. A coterie of kobolds, if you will.

Plus, the mental image of a group of kobolds sitting in front of a computer - maybe with one on the mouse and two on the keyboard, typing away together NCIS style, amuses me.

How much bullshit would you propose we put up with before developing an opinion about someone? They got banned, then made a new account and came here to complain about it with frankly juvenile rhetoric and while throwing insults at mods. That’s all I need to form an opinion of someone. If they want to change that opinion, they’re welcome to take steps to do so.

Username checks out?

I know nothing about the situation that resulted in the ban and won’t comment on it, but based purely on your attitude and rhetoric in this post, I’m inclined to think that it was warranted and that, honestly, we’re probably better off without you.

Yep, meanwhile on Lemmy we have people who don’t seem to understand what’s going on posting shit like “You all need to fight back! I thought you had guns to protect against situations like this!” The restraint people are showing by not doing that is frankly unbelievable.
