I've seen this exact picture so many times that I actually wonder if it is fake. Not the phenomenon but these pictures specifically.

[–] bucketofcandyfloss@thelemmy.club 4 points 22 hours ago

They do look a bit too fake but who knows lol

Me, playing Infinite Wealth (takes place in Hawaii): "I can tell it's a video game because it's noon and I still see shadows. Also that garbage bag has arms and legs and is trying to kick my ass rn."

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 118 points 1 day ago (2 children)

This seems like a big miss that every video game developer could skip the shadows and just say "our game takes place at high noon in Hawaii".

Sounds like a perfect setup for a magic ritual

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 0 points 5 hours ago

That's what she said

[–] yamanii@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Explains why Like A Dragon has two games in Hawaii now.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 69 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Sun is almost directly over head, Intellectually, I know that.

But still, seeing these pictures hurts my brain down on the primal monkey/lizard level.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But what about your donkey level?

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I am not gifted enough to be on a donkeys level.

Maybe, maybe Tardigrad with an OD of little blue pills.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

It probbaly looks way less weird in real life.

When your GPU is from 2017

[–] hypertown@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago

I read that "from 2007". 2017 was like 3 years ago right? Right????

[–] washbasin@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey now! My 1070 is doing just fine. Holy shit, it's from 2016. I'm actually very impressed and depressed all at the same time.

[–] vaionko@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

My Pascal Titan X also going strong still. The best of the best from 2016 is still very usable

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago

Just more evidence that Hawaii is forever stuck in the 90s.

[–] RedditWanderer@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

When the sun is directly overhead anywhere.

[–] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Unfortunately it only happens at certain latitudes above and below the equator, so it can't really happen just anywhere, just in the few places that are at those latitudes.

[–] RedditWanderer@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

My bad, I meant anywhere the sun is directly overhead, which happens to be only in certain areas, but not just in Hawaii.

[–] Waraugh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Hawaii is the only place in Merica that it happens, none of those other places exist.

~~Western~~ American Samoa exists, and is "part" of the US

[–] Hasherm0n@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

You're thinking of American Samoa which is different from the Independent State of Samoa, formerly known as Western Samoa and a sovereign nation.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samoa https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Samoa

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

You're correct! I confused the two

[–] homesnatch@lemm.ee 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Western Samoa is no longer... And how is it part of the US?

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I was thinking of American Samoa. Edited

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 45 minutes ago) (1 children)

You try invading it, and see who's Army, Marines, Air Force, and Navy shows up to defend it.

[–] homesnatch@lemm.ee 1 points 45 minutes ago (1 children)

I'll give that a shot... Does that mean the US also owns much of Europe and any country in the UN?

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 42 minutes ago (1 children)

No, they are separate countries. American Samoa isn't. It isn't a state, but neither are Guam and Puerto Rico. They're still part of the US.

[–] homesnatch@lemm.ee 1 points 35 minutes ago (1 children)

My bad, I looked up Western Samoa and got redirected to regular Samoa not American Samoa...

Hopefully the Kender is not too angry and won't "borrow" all my stuff.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 points 33 minutes ago

No worries! Apparently conflating Samoa and American Samoa is just happening today!

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Odd way to say doesn’t cast shadows

[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Perfect time to do mushrooms

[–] idegenszavak@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm not sure. Some years ago a friend and me figured out, during a vacation it would be fun to take a lot of shrooms and just lie on the beach on a day like on the picture. We tripped our brain but we became crustaceans from outside from the sun, it hurt as hell for a week.

So folks be safe, consume hallucinogens in the shadow on days like that.

[–] imaqtpie@lemmy.myserv.one 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Rule 1 of tripping. The setting dictates everything.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Rule 1 of being in the sun. The sun radiates everything.

[–] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

*Set and setting. Both are equally important

[–] imaqtpie@lemmy.myserv.one 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah that's what I meant, very true. But the setting is much easier to optimize.

[–] bruhduh@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

GTA SA looking pictures

[–] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

That's definitely true.
