Lib boomer meme.

You know the russophobia/anticommunism/fashism is bad on Lemmy when literally nobody mentions it in 80+ comments and this nonsense is upvoted 700 times.

The power of the bogeyman is strong here.

I've had this song stuck in my head on and off for at least a decade.

Rogue came out in 1980, while Tetris came out 4 years later in 1984. Some nice bit of trivia there.

That's a very old-school gaming style. Every game I played on my Atari 2600 was like that. You never win, you just play until you lose. I used to wonder about the possible mass side effects of this - were we subtly conditioning people to accept being losers?

Adventure and ET both had endings.

Does a landfill really count as an ending?

!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
