All of mine. All. of. mine.
This is literally my ONLY "fond" memories. I'm trying to think of fond memories rn and there's literally nothing asides from me browsing 9gag back in 2010.
I remember browsing the home computer in the living room looking for material back in 2009
Same. I have great memories of wandering through the wilderness in oblivion and skyrim.
there's just no point in playing a game. Why?? So I can die and try again?? So I can buy DLC and wear new upgrades?? It's just a low dopamine experience. Youtube pretty much ruined games-- there's no more secrets. It used to be you had to read video game magazines, and there was uncertainty and excitement about upcoming games.
The mysterious magic that came from games as a child can never be replicated
My most erotic memories were actually before I started puberty
Or artifical memories based on tv shows or long running cartoon series. Nothing really fully human and low tech to point to. Beside mayb gardenmaxxing.
how come that is though? i wish i could vidya cope to the fullest throughout life
as the brain matures it becomes more cognizant
same thing, fallout 3 made me socialize with other kids who were playing it, comfy memories. Pure nostalgia.
Mine too. Part of the reason why I love sleep is so that I can get dreams and escape this world.
Over for us
Listen to the soundtrack of Mario Games and certain movies from my childhood from time to time.
Yes tbh. Still remember Super Mario Galaxy Games and Mario and Luigi Games as my best childhood memories. Then later I stopped playing video games and my memories as a teenager/young adult mostly revolve around various animals, for example that I once saw certain fish in zoo shops in my vicinity (like a very small Channa micropeltes, a Tetraodon mbu or Hydrolycus/Hydrocynus sp.) or as I saw esculapian snakes in nature for the first time, nearly fell down a hillside while looking for it and injured my hand by doing so. Sadly these times are over, when you go to zoo shops/aquariums nowadays you just see the same shit like guppies and neons. A few years ago life seemed so much brighter and it seemed like freedom existed nowadays everything feels like shit.
Gardenmaxxing sounds fun, which plants do you like/keep?
Brutal.
It's a meme from iwh but gardenmaxxing can legit be a good pastime.
Yes. It's an incredibly good cope, also want to start with mycology but I am to lazy for it.
Interesting tbh. Never grew my own food, but it sounds funny. Mostly kept carnivorous plants.
Mycology is related to fungi and mushrooms right? Interesting ngl
Foxgloves? Yeah they grow well in low lying cool woodlands like you find in the UK and EE @ShySaxon @The Abyss @Darkenzo @To koniec
Many medicinal uses for plants even if they aren't trees. Trees are more interesting imo than perennial shrubbery unless you are talking about plants in the Arctic tbh
Still cannot tell the difference between meadows and grasslands ngl
All these relationships between organisms whether it's commensal or parasitic are indeed really delicate. Throw one thing out of balance and the whole system can collapse and settle into a new state.
I think of growing plants and crops more in terms of food more than aesthetics tbhngl otherwise it's just another task.
Yes. Sadly almost nothing is offered in education in that regard. Have read some books as a child, but mostly forgot about it. Also lichens are interesting, because they are not a single organism but rather a symbiosis between algae/cyanobacteria and fungi.
Yes. Also many keep them in their gardens here. Have only seen them in gardens tbh.
Yes, trees are very interesting. Really shocking how many cannot tell different conifers apart tbh although it's so incredibly easy when you think about it. Enjoy walking in the woods, a few days ago I saw a huge tumour in a tree at a very high altitude on the trunk, was caused by Agrobacterium (a bacterium that is able to transfer its T-DNA into plants and genetically manipulate them for its own advantage). Galls/cecidia are also interesting - there is a separate branch of science called cecidology for that.
Tbh only semantics probably, but didn't know the difference either. Especially like the moors or the mountains.Still cannot tell the difference between meadows and grasslands ngl
I think meadows are like grasslands but with more heterogeneity of plant species and wildflowers interspersed
Imo from an aesthetic points of view meadows > grasslands.Meadow vs Grassland - What's the difference?
As nouns the difference between meadow and grassland is that meadow is a field or pasture; a piece of land covered or cultivated with grass, usually intended to be mown for hay; an area of low-lying vegetation, especially near a river while grassland is...wikidiff.com
Yes. Incredibly interesting. The Bird's Nest orchid especially because it's epiparasitic, it parasitizes the mycorrhiza (symbiotic fungi) and therefore indirectly the plant itself - it's called mycoheterotrophy.
Understandable. Hope you enjoy it, man.
Was a few years ago deeply into them, but today I am know only the absolute basics.
Lichens are interesting for sure. Give a nice coloration to otherwise bare rocks and are common in very extreme environments like dry polar deserts not covered by ice or just deserts overall like the Atacama Desert @Mainländer
I assume they are just meant as ornamentals then.
After millions of years of evolution there are still so many fungi and diseases transmitted by insects can kill trees easily. It's a shame. Same with things like rot or damage to roots spurring quick death of trees. Grass is more resilient and faster growing than trees which is why if weather changes are as bad as expected it's going to be grass and shrubs that triumph over trees. That includes a lot of invasive grass and shrubs like honeysuckle, asiastic bittersweet vines, cheatgrass and so much more.
Yup. Always more to be discovered when it comes to plants and their uses imo.
I see.
Resembles the heads of some tall grasses ngl
Yeah it makes for good escapism to read about those things.
That happens sometimes tbh. You remember the main ideas but forget the more specific details.
Tbh
Internet has ruined everything. Tbh it doesnt matter still. It's all surrogate of real life. Whatever good there was in video games is far outclassed by real human experiences that we lack. Killing bunch of polygons on the screen vs hanging out with friends and fucking hot girls, hmmm so much of a tough choice to make.
I like listening to Minecraft soundtracks
Minecraft has music?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
tbh
