I’m Chinese, I’ve never seen a map like this before. We usually just use Mercator but split along the Atlantic ocean instead of the Pacific. This map is just kinda bizzare. Why is Antarctica so prioritized? Why’s it in portrait orientation? I think it’s just intentionally weird, which is still cool.

Yep when I first joined I thought it stood for main Instance.

Huh so that’s what the original looks like.

That seems very precarious to me, I’d be constantly worried about nudging it and dropping the cups.

That is some surprisingly good VFX for a meme. I wonder if the background is fully CGI or if they recreated it and cut.

While this is funny, I’m pretty sure it isn’t real (or it was intentionally written poorly)- It doesn’t make any sense in Chinese either, and most people in Hong Kong know English at least somewhat.

I was curious about Alert’s name, and assumed it was because the town served as an alerting system for something, but I looked it up and turns out it’s cause a ship called HMS Alert wintered there.

From what I’ve heard (back when I used Reddit) they aren’t linked, there’s apparently a bunch of people who have one but not the other.

Someone said that it’s cause they’re almost opposite effects- car sickness is when you feel movement but don’t see it, whereas vr sickness is when you see movement but don’t feel it- but I’d take this with a grain of salt since it’s just some random person on Reddit guessing at the cause.

Personally my experience is mostly the same as yours, I don’t get either.

Aww that’s a shame, the real Neptune looks really dull.

They’re not contradictory. All other headsets’ passthrough is just so bad that even though the Apple headset isn’t good it’s still way ahead of them.

You can do that? I don’t use Spotify so I didn’t know.

He’s a wizard, the revolver is actually firing shrunken 16 inch HE shells.

Assuming an average of 4 minutes per song, that is 7 years and 8 months of music. I wonder how much time the ads would add?

Perfect, if your playlist doesn’t give you severe whiplash every few minutes you’re not doing it right.

HOW DO YOU YELL WITHOUT CAPSLOCK?

That’s a good idea, saving this image for later. Thanks!

Or that castle sieges were much more boring than made to seem and would last months

Huh, what media are you talking about? Might just be the generes I enjoy but I’ve never seen anything suggest that castle sieges didn’t last ages. Wouldn’t that kinda go against the point of a siege?

I can barely see it if I look forward. If I look down though it takes up the entire side edge of my vision.

Which suprises me. Someone who was a kid when Minecraft came out would be 25 now. I wonder what the age demographics are like on Lemmy.
