I'm sad to report that this is not true.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 50 points 7 months ago

Aw, well maybe it's coming!

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 58 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

If Apple really wanted to spearhead sportsball representation, theyd give me a Harlem Globetrotters color option.

A Harlem Globetrotters basketball made by Baden, sporting the famous red, white, and blue color scheme and logo.

Th- that’s what she said

[-] SatyrSack@lemmy.one 9 points 7 months ago
[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 20 points 7 months ago

Most recent. I just updated yesterday.

Barring a bug in a recent beta, this is probably not going to actually happen.

(As cool as it may be.)

[-] Sorse@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Most recent isn’t an iOS version.

Depending on your device, the latest iOS version is either iOS 12.5.7, 15.8.2, 16.7.7 or 17.4.1

17.4.1 would be the most recent no?

Like it’s the latest version, of the numbers you listed.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 7 months ago

Latest version isn't the biggest number, it's whatever the most up-to-date you can get a device is.

The latest version may not be any of those and it may be in beta.

[-] Sorse@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

But aeronmelon says that they updated their phone yesterday, that means they have the latest version that is available for their device, not the latest version.

What iOS version?

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 3 points 7 months ago

Thanks. It seemed too stupid to make up, but also too stupid for Apple to actually do it...

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

How have I never heard of this?!

[-] gibmiser@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

SNES emulator, if you can't find it let me know I have it on my desktop. The story is so fucking good dumb. So fucking dumb in the best way. Gameplay is actually alright, like an old SNES RPG.

Here is the mood music. https://youtu.be/lWKQiZVBtu4?si=_hH1cn01OeJgcEKH

Edit: ahhhhhh I can't simp any harder for this game, just the plot gets me going.

"In 2041 "post-cyberpocalyptic Neo New York", Charles Barkley performs a powerful "Chaos Dunk" at a basketball game, inadvertently killing most of the people in attendance. As a result, basketball is outlawed and many basketball players are hunted down and killed."

It just gets crazier from there...

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Amazing. I'm going to have to try this one of these days.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Shut Up and Jam Gaiden is not playable on a SNES emulator, sadly.

This is the developer's website. It's not an SNES ROM and it's perfectly legal to download. I believe they made it in RPGMaker.

New fun activity in RimWorld

[-] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

1 more Masterwork Human Leather Basketball and I'm off this planet for good!

[-] ForestOrca@kbin.social 24 points 7 months ago

Wait, so standard orange color basketballs are made of Oompa Loompa skin? Gaahhhhhhh!!!

[-] Zorsith 18 points 7 months ago

Special Presidential edition

[-] orphiebaby@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Was going to make a similar joke

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

Can't afford the $175M price tag.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 20 points 7 months ago

I’m already creeped out by the fleshtone emojis as they imply that Simpsons primary yellow is a normal colour of human skin.

[-] cordlesslamp@lemmy.today 32 points 7 months ago

I thought the whole point of emojis being yellow in the beginning is to eliminate the hassle of making one for every skin tone.

And then some assholes got offended by it and demand the exact opposite.

[-] NoSpiritAnimal@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Person 1 - "We want equal rights and protections for all people, fair wages, and the right to live healthy and happy without the threat of state sanctioned violence"

Capitalism - "Sorry, best I can do is performative gestures with no real world impact."

Person 2 - "These got dam libs ruined my emojis!"

[-] mriormro@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

I like the fact that I can use emojis that are in my skin tone.

[-] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 4 points 7 months ago
[-] ris@feddit.de 14 points 7 months ago

Would fit into a Wolfenstein game. We in Germany have lampshade made out of human skin, in a concentation camp.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago

Well yeah. What kind of skin are you making your basketballs out of, dolphin?

[-] Kase@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago
[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago

We make terrible basketballs.

Now puffer fish on the other hand...

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

*New England Patriots noises*

[-] zaphod@feddit.de 13 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

And if you're tired from playing basketball all day maybe read a book bound in human skin to relax.

[-] tabris@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago
[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago

And that word is nik... uh... necktie?

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 12 points 7 months ago

Is the ball made of me, or am I made of ball?

[-] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 12 points 7 months ago

🏀 Excellent (human leather)

[-] franklin@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Look if they didn't want to be made into basketballs they should have stopped raiding me.

[-] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

In this chat, we stan for blacksket ball

[-] erp@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

It's good that this was done, otherwise people may believe that all basketballs are made by oompa-loompas.

[-] SkyeStarfall 6 points 7 months ago

This is probably just a consequence of how unicode emoji modifiers work

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 7 months ago

But why on earth is the basketball modifiable with the skin color? Are we going to do that with all emoji? Are we finally gonna have the 🍆 in all skin tones?

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

That's not how it works. A user may add to the modifier character but they still need to be an actual image change to actually cause the character to do anything.

It's not a tint it's actually a different image that's being loaded.

[-] cantankerous_cashew@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Just updated to the latest iOS (17.4.1) and it (un)fortunately does not work 🥲

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

This is not true.
