If I'm not mistaken, James SA Corey is an alias for two writers.

Point still stands though.

It was kinda a hoax. Not the problem itself, it did exist, but everything in 1999 was "y2k compliant". Especially things that couldn't be affected by the issue (like toasters and what have you).

It was not a hoax, but it was hoax adjacent.

I won't say they're not making it up, but their screenshot has "AI overview", yours doesn't. It is probable that "normal" google gives different results than "AI" Google.

Croatian "Ovce i novce" - literally sheep and the money. Same meaning as have your cake and eat it. "Kašika mu u med pala" - spoon fell into honey, meaning he got lucky "Tako ti je grah pao" - this is the way beans fell, meaning it is what it is "Izvukao si deblji kraj" - you got the fatter end, opposite meaning from you got the shorter end. It's kind of a weird one, as it is also sometimes used to mean the same as the shorter end. "Da ti dupe puta vidi" - so your behind can see the trip. Meaning to travel for no special reason, usually used when a reason is given, but is probably just an excuse to travel

GDPR isn't about where the site is hosted, but whether it caters to EU citizens or not. So, if a lemmy instance allows EU citizens to register and/or visit, GDPR applies to them.

I bought it last month on sale. It was on sale, but kind of weird, the game itself wasn't on sale, nor were the dlcs, but the game with dlcs was on sale (and was cheaper than just the game).

I like the game. Reminds me of ufo-enemy unknown from way back.
