All this Argentina nazi thing feels like a psi op from the americans to distract from the fact they took in much more nazis and incorporated them into government. (Non argentinian btw).

Yeah I think it was called Operation Paperclip Garden or something like that, Axis scientists got snatched up by the Yanks and Reds and got to continue sciencing, I think one of them uploaded his brain into a couple hundred kilometers of storage tape

How long can he play until the neck hurt?

If It's me, I'll replace the chair with a reclining one, lap table for the keyboard and mouse. A massage chair would be nice.

[–] Chocrates@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (7 children)

I have been trying for years to figure out how I can get a screen on my face and a portable mouse and keyboard so I can work laying down.

They haven't made a vr desktop that doesn't make you puke yet afaik. I have tried ar glasses and they are close, but the pair I have are blurry. Either a manufacturing defect or I need glasses

If you're a Linux person, there's Simula and also Stardust.

I haven't tested either, despite having a Vive. Just never bothered.

[–] Chocrates@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Ooh these look neat, ty

[–] kuadhual@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

You either buy the expensive prebuilt one (zero gravity chair or scorpion like gaming chair) or you could MacGyver it yourself using used kid hamster wheel from abandoned play ground near you.

Wow, this POV: meme is actually POV.

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's making me feel old in that he's referred to as great Grampa and not just Grampa.

[–] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I'm almost 50 and none of my grandparents had turned 20 when the war ended. So if this makes you feel old, you are, in fact, old.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It wasn't until after they all dies that I realised that all the model Spitfires and things my granddad had weren't from his memories of fighting in WW2. He was in school during WW2. He just liked model planes.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure my kids will one day ask me "dad, what were the 70s like?" and it'll dawn on me that my enthusiasm with 1970s progrock has depicted me as being far older than I am

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not even 40 yet and my grandparents were in their 30s when the war ended. My parents had me when I was about my age now and similar for my grandparents for my parents.

Yeah, that makes sense then. But that's older than average.

Man I never seen a Victoria 2 campaign that successful

He should be sitting further back, that’s just bad for your neck and can give you eye strain

That is a screenshot from Victoria 2

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Paradox have too many grand strategies. They need to make just one game that spans from 6000BC to 2500AD.

[–] orangeboats@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't think it is feasible to build one without a massive scope creeping. The grand strategies have very different focuses depending on the era.

Are you winning, dad?

[–] Egg_Egg@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Pretty sure that's Europa Universalis 4, but it could be another Paradox grand strategy game. I'm just pretty sure that's EU4's user interface. If the humour is that it's supposed to be Nazi Germany, it would have to be hearts of Iron, and the German Empire would be named the "German Reich". EU4 takes place before the second world war.

Edit: Nevermind, it's Victoria 2, still before WW2, though.

Great grandpa appears to be a ww1 vet.

[–] Chocrates@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

A hearts of iron 4 enjoyer I see.

[–] SmilingSolaris@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] Chocrates@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I'm so sorry

[–] Creat@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The goals of the Second Reich weren't actually that different from the Third. "Lebensraum" originated as a concept in the 1800s and Wilhelm even had plans for ethnically cleansing their African colonies.
