And the vacant eyes

Old dude has a bad case of Sigmoid Lip.

Wel I’ll be!

WikiDiff says it’s simply misspelled, and quotes very old examples of “farewell”.

Fucking kittens don’t know shit.

It appears to be a wallpaper. TinEye found a bunch of results on various wallpaper websites.

This bastardized version is… something.

I like to watch Big Ole Words on YouTube. He’s a collector, and a player. He plays every game like he’s a kid and just got it for Christmas, and it’s the only new game he has. So, he tries really hard to find the fun in it. He has way, way more patience than I do, but he won’t tell you a game is good when it’s not. At least not from what I’ve seen.

I especially like the “games no one played” series of videos. I get to see exactly why no one played those games. 😄

Of course it’s not! What did you expect, someone to post a 300 DPI image on the internet so you can print it at home?

The average movie poster is 27x40". At 300 DPI, thats 97 megapixels! You expected someone on Lemmy to post a 97 megapixel image?

And since that’s not what you got, you call it “10 pixels”? You sound like a spoiled child.

It’s even worse than I thought. I thought your Lemmy client was having issues, or your web browser. Turns out you have ridiculous demands.

What the heck are you talking about? You can even read the fine print.

I can almost count the hairs in his beard.

Whatever the problem is, it’s on your end.

Even developing the next generation isn’t a guarantee of success.

The Commodore 128 was a failure. It was far superior to the 64, but they made it backwards compatible by literally embedding a Commodore 64 inside. Software developers just kept developing for the 64.

On the other hand, backward compatibility has worked well for Nintendo and Sony.

I think they were sarcastically replying to you. Pretending to be someone who actually has that opinion.

The eyes, mostly. The braid thing is weird, too.

The source is some old “Top 10 Oldies Myths” article from About.com. Never cite wikipedia. Cite the source. https://web.archive.org/web/20140711194805/http://oldies.about.com/od/oldieshistory/a/oldiesmyths.htm

And that source doesn’t say anything about light sensitivity.

Roy did have eyeglasses to correct his vision, but they were quite normal; en route to an Alabama concert, however, he accidentally left them on the plane. The only other pair he had were prescription sunglasses, so he wore those instead. The very next day Roy was scheduled to open up a European Beatles tour, and there was no time to go find his old pair, so the dark shades stayed on him throughout the tour. The resultant frenzy of Beatlemania ensured that the singer would be seen throughout the world in that pair; by the time he returned home, it was a trademark.

Not that I necessarily believe anything in such an article.

In all my years, I’ve never heard a single person say they ever thought he was blind. I have a really hard time believing this was ever commonly believed.

I’m not disputing that you might have believed it and that some other people might have believed it, too. It’s just, I doubt it was a common thing.

Yes, we know Google is blind, duh.

What’s the correct procedure, placing image tags in the description field, where I placed the transcript?

Yup

It’s a ficas.

You’ll never guess where nevertheless comes from!

Diaereses don’t indicate stress. They indicate separately pronounced vowels.

When you say OP, who are you talking about? The author of the post was talking about hyphens, and nothing about stresssed syllables, and I’m the one who brought up diaereses, and I wasn’t referring to stressed syllables, either.

Good catch. I fixed it.

Also, by your coöperative pronunciation example, people would be mispronouncing reëlect.

I’m not sure what you mean.

It’s pronounced co-operative and re-elect. Coöp needs it to not sound like “coop” as in chicken coop. Reëlect needs it to not sound like “reel” as in fishing reel.
