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

Games back then had bugs, too, they just never got fixed and everyone pretended they didn't exist.
They were also released in a fully playable state. The game worked out of the box, or that would be the end of a game studio, or at least that game.
This has never been true. Daggerfall and Morrowind, for example, were huge successes for Bethesda despite players falling through the floor into an infinite void several times a day. There are countless other examples of horribly buggy games.
Before home internet, PC games magazine cover disks (they did 💾 type for years before CDs) were my main channel of getting very welcome patches.
