I’m getting “Error removing spoiler”. What’s it say?

The Switch beat the PS2 in the US, still ~15 million shy to overtake it globally

ceenote,

The Switch has passed PS2 sales in the US and is ~15 million units shy of overtaking it globally.

FederatedSaint,

Weird I get the same error

can,

Sync doesn’t support the spoiler markup fully yet.

wheeldawg,

What could possibly be the differentiating factor between when it works and when it doesn’t? This is a text only kind of issue and this is the first time I’ve ever seen it happen.

I’m not a super frequent visitor to spoiler’d content, but I’ve seen it often enough to know it normally works.

can,

I’m not sure. Sync doesn’t actually properly support the spoiler formatting Lemmy uses but it was close enough to partially work (wouldn’t show spoiler context however.

can,

Sync user? I had the same issue. I hit reply to see it.

Kit,

Yep, Sync on Android

CrayonRosary, (edited )

Sync is dumb. Switch to Thunder.

I say this as a regretful $20 payer and previous patreon.

Ironically the spoiler is broken in Thunder, too, because they did it wrong. It has to start on a line all by itself. They instead put it on the same line as “tl;Dr”. But at least Thunder shows it as plain text.

DarkThoughts,

On mbin I just get an empty spoiler titled "Details". If I check on Lemmy it's not even there. Not sure what OP did there.

Works fine on jerboa

SolarMonkey,

On voyager app it just displays the whole string of text… it usually handles spoilers fine… super weird.

OP has malformed spoiler, you can tell bc it is also broken on lemmy-ui which is the source of truth.

(The ::: has to start on a new line)

Neither Netflix.

Still surprised.

Or Roblox…fucking weird decisions Nintendo makes. Not a complaint.

You must gather your congregation before venturing forth!

I’m more surprised that it even got offered there. There’s some legal hurdles to clear for selling in a new country, and I guess, one of their distribution platforms decided it was worth it.

I guess, the Vatican might not have a ton of laws, though…

Damage,

The Vatican is essentially Italy, except when it goes against their interests

Ephera,

Interesting. I almost guessed that variant, too, but figured it would be a bit too wild for a country to auto-adopt most laws that another country implements. 🙃

This raises a more interesting question. How many copies of DOOM have been sold in the Vatican?

Obviously. You can’t really expect the pope to play solo. Know the true question is, who did he romance first? My money is on Karlak.

cmhickman358,

I bet he went Minthara

pinkystew,

pwease kill immigrants with me? ~the pope

Nuke_the_whales,

Gotta find the user name “el_papa” or “big Poppa pope”, track him down. I wanna play call of duty with him

Nah, shadowheart. You know the Catholic Church likes converting people.

Wow! That's 4.08 copy/pope/km^2

But to compare, how many loli porn game ? Someone ask Valve to release the numbers…

Duamerthrax,

Zero. Because they don’t need a fake substitute.

Reference material for when they release a BG3-style RPG starring Luce and friends.

I wonder if North Korea has some copies 👀

Pirated ones, probably, though I doubt anyone other than the dear leader is allowed to play, because “western propaganda”. Not like you’d have many people in there with a good PC anyway. Or even electricity.

Grangle1,

It would probably also have to run on Red Star OS. It runs well enough on Linux with Proton, but would they have Proton?

No, dad, I need to kill Raphael!

CrazyLikeGollum,

That song goes hard though. Felt bad ending it.

glimse,

That fight is in my top 10 gaming experiences for sure

I’d assume there’d be at least someone there who’s job it is to “research” things to see if they’re to be banned or not.

Like the person who would’ve had to read the Harry Potters.

Grangle1,

Believe it or not, the Catholic Church is far less into the “Satanic Panic” idea that anything that mentions magic and stuff is evil and should be avoided than most Protestant Christian churches, especially the Evangelicals. Pretty much the only thing they consider sinful outright in the media is porn, otherwise you’re just advised to avoid stuff that influences you to commit other sins. This includes things like Baldur’s Gate 3. If it’s not influencing you to sin, it’s not a sin to play. Same with Harry Potter and other stuff like that. It’s just some extreme folks in the Church, influenced by the Evangelicals, who push the Satanic Panic farther than the Church officially teaches and give the Church a bad name in that regard. Lots of priests are sci-fi/fantasy/gamer nerds, and Tolkien (author of Lord of the Rings) was a faithful practicing Catholic.

ICastFist,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

Speaking of satanic panic, the biggest irony are those that denounce stuff like the Diablo or Doom series. You know, games were the player’s job is to literally destroy the forces of actual hell. Maybe killing demons with swords and shotguns is sinful?

thanks_shakey_snake,

It’s just any time there’s that much excitement, it must be no good, you know?

Someone religious once told me that’s because the games/media are like “saying that this demons exists” and by doing that give them power or something like that, didn’t pay much attention after the first bullshit.

Not surprising, it’s another place based in high fantasy

PhobosAnomaly,

Though I would still like to go. That architecture looks fantastic.

rtxn,

The fandom takes cosplay and immersion very seriously.

I would love a peek inside the forbidden archives.

2 out of the 764 people who live there. I wanna see an investigation drama where they try to narrow it down.

Lemminary,

Oops, they only managed to uncover systematic sex abuse. Better luck next time, dang it.

GraniteM,

“I tried to find out who was playing Baldur’s Gate 3, but all I found was this worthless pile of sexual abuse evidence!” [Throws cardboard box into incinerator]

Duamerthrax,

Considering the Catholic Church banned chess and excommunicated several priests who were caught playing it, I’d believe it. But of course, kiddy diddling is just fine.

Rebellious priests invented the folding chess set because of the ban actually.

sasquash,

or two guys from the swiss guard.

Auli,

Father Robert bring one.
