This image keeps crashing my phone’s browser from the sheer size, which just makes your point even funnier.

Apparently a spoon left on your laptop trackpad can trick Teams into thinking you’re still there and never marking you as “away”.

Classic Simpsons reference.

Lemmy works like Reddit formatting where you hit Enter twice for a new line (or put 2 spaces at the end).

There’s one called simply Pokemon Blue - 151.

Wish I could take credit, but it’s good old search engine work. I searched for bathroom basins and came across several discussions of this same picture. Among all the jokes and random ideas was that link above that finally explained it.

A planter for fake plants. Apparently it was a fad in the 50s and 60s.

James Lee, is that you?

The first kill in Cube.

Their source is this page on the Video Game Sales Wiki, which does say “The following titles are the best-selling games released in the 2020s, as of 2025.”. That’s how I read the headline, but you’re right, it would have helped if Visual Capitalist had clarified by including that bit of info.

Oh cool. The CEO is played by Mark Proksch. Didn’t know who he was back when this first aired.

I still have my doubts that was the majority of the issue, at least the first time they “won” that award in 2012. That poll happened 1 month after Mass Effect 3’s release, when emotions were still raw over people’s disappointment with the game’s ending. That’s not to defend those who were voting for EA over, say, Nestle or any number of other awful companies. But most of what I saw was immature lashing out to punish anyone perceived as responsible for the writing. I remember people cheering they’d managed to harass EA’s tech support Twitter account into closing, like they’d made some great moral victory. It was all pretty gross, just for different reasons than EA claimed.

You just unlocked a core memory. I forgot all about those graphs and the little red plastic strips you used to view them.
