Mortol is the game of the year. I got gold and cherry at the same time. I replayed each level 10-50 times to try to get the best runs I could. Ended the game with 150 lives. Played it for about 8 hours. I would have paid $10 for that game alone!

And I still have Mortol 2 to play!

It’s a habit like licking the bottom of your shoes when you get home.

Hawk can blind and cripple enemies. It also can dodge the first 8 attacks made against it.

This is amazing in the Halls for fighting Scorpios and Evil Eyes. The hawk can outright kill a Scorpio because Scorpios don’t attack in melee range, so the hawk closes the gap while dodging everything, then cripples the Scorpio so you can catch up and melee it or hit it with ranged weapons.

Same with Evil Eyes. It blinds them so they can’t zap you. They will eventually zap the hawk when it runs out of free dodges, but I have hawks last until it naturally time-out many times, scouting and crippling things.

It can take a little bit of micromanagement to use well, but it’s really not bad.

Jiggle pork

They’re starting to ship them with chips in them to send the data away whether connected to WiFi or not.

So you have a source for this claim?

I used to use NetZero. Free dialup internet that injected ads into your web browser because HTTPS wasn’t common back then.

I’m really happy my Lemmy app (Thunder) has an option to not show display names. I only see normal usernames and none of that KOLONAK bullshit.

Mortol is the game of the year.

I guess. It’s just such a miniscule thing to be pleased with. You can throw anything you find on floor 1 at those traps to trigger them except a potion.

Good work. I reported it as a bug in the thunder community.

That could be it. Incidentally, the image displays fine in the web UI. Must be a bug in Thunder.

their crosspost was missing the additional information they added in the body of the original post

What do you mean “missing”? Are cross posts supposed to copy over the original post body? Post bodies often contain notes specifically for the community they are posted in and you wouldn’t want the original body. Just the link and your own post body. Even if they are copied, you can certainly remove that text and write your own. Hell, you could just delete the “crossposted from” note, too!

This is not a bug. It’s a tiny feature the web UI does that Thunder chose not to implement.

(I fixed your nouns in the quote. You should have just done that in your edit.)

Edit: indeed, the web UI quotes the entire original post body and adds the cross post note. You are free to delete all of it.

I realize, in this case, crossposting this post without also adding a body explaining the post is a little odd. But it’s always the poster’s choice to add or modify the post body after clicking crosspost. Could Thunder add a feature to copy the original body as a quote? Sure. But it’s not a big.

Huh, then you worded your comment kind of strangely.

In any case, I think the rest of my comment applies then. It’s a feature of the web UI and not one that is particularly useful in my opinion since the post already contains metadata about cross posts, and Thunder displays the age of all of the crossposts making it pretty easy to identify the original. (Unless the crosspost was done at the same time as the original post, which usually indicated the original author was posting it in several places at once, in which case which one is really “the original”?)

If the web UI doesn’t show this data, then that’s the fault of the web UI.

Edit: Maybe I misunderstood. Are you implying that Thunder does this, too, but only if there’s already content in the post body?

Ah, sounds like it’s a web UI front-end feature then. It just sticks that text in there for you. That’s odd when there’s back-end data that contains the cross post information and accessible from the API.

(At least that’s my assumption. Thunder shows crosspost data in a handy table. I feel certain it’s not generating this data on its own from some kind of search. The database must already contain this data and have an API for it, so why does the web UI stuff it into the post body at the same time?)

I think I’m wrong about zapping from a doorway. I did it last night and didn’t catch on fire.

For some reason my lemmy client, Thunder, can’t display that image from Wikipedia, but the URL is correct. I can open it in a browser.

Reuploading it to Lemmy in case others have the same issue.

The body of posts is submitted by the user. I’ve personally never noticed “crossposted from” in the body of a post. Whereas the crossposted metadata is stored separately on the server.
