We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I was promised that the cyberpunk dystopia would at least look cool. What a letdown.

We don't even get cool robot arms or genetically engineered cat girls.

if we had braindances at least, we could ignore real life. But nope, best we can do is crack.

I know, right? Where's my double jump module, already?

[–] exu@feditown.com 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I remember watching a video of somebody calculating how much force a second jump in air requires and it doesn't end well for anyone nearby.

That sounds like a feature and not a bug to me. You're telling me I can double jump, and I get to blow all of these pesky people elbowing me on the street clear into the weeds? Sign me up.
