A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

iirc this is the screen you would get when the PS2 was borked and wouldn't boot properly, or something like that. It's been a long time but I do still remember the terror I associate with this image lol
Edit: Actually it might have been a disc read error
It was a disc read error. In that era, the most likely issue was that your disc was too beat up to work properly.
Another big reason, a lot of the earlier PS2 models had a poor quality laser that would go bad really quick
That kind of trauma is probably why I had stopped using optical media by 2005.
That explains why I also remembered the smell and texture of toothpaste lol
Oh, so kind of like the red ring of death for us xbox kids!
did i wonder into Instagram or some such nonsense? The 'verse is supposed to be just us old nerds.
I was trying to figure out some Commodore 64 screen I was looking at.
Bruh, 30 is the new 60 because of gestures wildly all around
