Built to last, after all these years.

This is the same vibe as electric bulbs in videogames using real electricity

Fun fact: the Titanic’s swimming pool was originally a salt water pool.

For use by first class passengers, included aboard Titanic was a heated salt water swimming pool.

Well, I don't think they switched to fresh water.

[tachyontele@lemm.ee]

Wait. What. Whoa

[tachyontele@lemm.ee]

Mission accomplished

[spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works]

So they got better at doing what they set out for!?

Only if you've got an OLED display, for LCDs you're using roughly the same energy as long as your display's backlight is on.

And you may ask yourself, “how did I get here?”

[ramble81@lemm.ee]

They’re not talking the amount of use, but just the sheer fact that if you see an electric light in a video game, it’s being powered by real world electricity, just like a normal light is.

[aeronmelon@lemmy.world]

Unfortunately the water is no longer heated.

[katana314@lemmy.world]

But global warming seeks to fix that!

[prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works]

The bits to make the light be shown by the cpu/gpu use the magic zip zap tho

Hope they change it regularly, otherwise it's full of algae by now

[sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works]

The real reason it sank was to reunite the pool with it's mum.

[spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works]

There's no place like home?

[dumptruck@lemmings.world]

I think it's mostly full of dead guy at this depth.

[dumptruck@lemmings.world]

Wait, so videogame lights are also physical real world lights...

[prex@aussie.zone]

[lugal@sopuli.xyz]

So maybe someone should dive there and replace them with new ones?

[naught101@lemmy.world]

Even the shadows are, just like a normal shadow
