Could also be useful because he claims to tape all your controllers. So if you've lost some, call up this guy and he'll locate every controller in your house to bring them all together in a taped mass.

Minecraft players when the chicken farm's a bit overpopulated.

Actually, I think you'll find it's the 870th of October, 2021, so this meme is perfectly seasonal.

It's an ad blocker blocker they've been implementing as of late. I don't think you'll be banned if you continue disregarding it, but they do eventually entirely block the video player unless you disable the ad blocker. However, in my experience, uBlock can block that message to resume normal watching. (Double Edit: This method did stop working on the 15/10/23, but started working again a day later. I guess it's a question of if the filters have been updated to counter YouTube's updates, though I did notice that viewing in a private tab worked when regular browsing didn't.) Go to the extension's settings/dashboard (on Firefox, do this by clicking on its icon in the top right, then the settings icon in the subsequent pop-up), then the Filter Lists, click "Purge all caches", then "Update now". Open an entirely new YouTube tab (or hard reload your current one by pressing Control + Shift + R), and the message should stop appearing, at least for the time being.

Not sure why the snowman's so distressed, given that it's a walking corpse itself.

Ancestors, since they'd be far more likely rationalise my bizarre present-day manner as being possessed by demons or something to that effect rather than assuming I'm from half a millennium in the future, I can't say I have any specific guesses as to what the society of 2523 might look like, but I suspect that they'd be far more likely to jump to the somewhat improbable sci-fi explanation of time travel (or perhaps some other technological explanation like mind malware if brain implants become a thing) than assuming supernatural explanations of demons or witchcraft.

I've started encountering the ad-blocker blocker myself over the past few days, but fortunately it proves to be terrible at its job in my experience, as a small X allows it to be dismissed after 3 or 5 seconds, which is outright better than waiting for the 5 seconds plus load time of a skippable ad, or the many more seconds of an unskippable ad or two. This might be useful for me if they ever decide to remove the ability to dismiss the ad-blocker blocker, though.

I suffered from something comparable for a while on desktop... until realising that I never checked the "Remember Me" checkbox when logging in. Maybe check to see if that checkbox exists for you next time you log in.

I know that full well - in animation and with other skins, just looks like normal contemplation rather than any degree of distress. It's just that the meme said it was distressed, so I rolled with that narrative rather than shooting it down with what I know about the game.

Despite running the same code and (generally) being able to see each others' posts, different Lemmy instances (or as you called them, versions) are not run by the same people, so often have different rules as to what is and isn't allowed on their instance. Some instances are very lenient, allowing anything that isn't outright illegal in their country of hosting to be posted, while another instance might have far stricter rules, disallowing things like nudity or vocalising certain political views, banning users on their instance who post such content and defederating other instances (effectively pretending the defederated instance doesn't exist and refusing to view any content posted from there) where such content is prolific.

Yep, same thing happens to me. Fortunately, this specific 404 can be gotten around by going to kbin.social/sub/hot instead, which should offer all the same results as just /sub would.

I played the first two Splatoon games quite a lot, but elected to skip the third, since I felt, and still feel, it'sn't changed enough from 2 to justify itself as a same-system sequel. In spite of that, I was fairly active on the r/splatoon community on Reddit, but'ven't'd any Splatoon interactions on the Fediverse yet. That's probably at least partially down to me not contributing as much here as I did on Reddit, though; much of what I did on Reddit was answering questions about videogames I cared about, and most of the communities for games I care about here either don't exist to my knowledge, or are small and subsequently have relatively little content to interact with at all, much less people posing questions about the game.

Not necessarily; there are a few SNES games in the Switch Online library that weren't localised and hence remain untranslated from Japanese, namely Super Puyo Puyo 2, Panel de Pon, Mario's Super Picross, and Kirby's Star Stacker. Though all of those games are puzzle games, which don't necessarily need language to be enjoyed, whereas an RPG like Mother 3 would likely be much less enjoyable without understanding the dialogue, battle UI and so on.
