Are there any good April Fools jokes today? For example, a few years ago Google announced a sewage based ISP (i.e. flush some fiber optic cable down the toilet and they would fish it out and connect it).
The only one I have come across is IGN article about the Nintendo Virtual Boy Pro.
For an IRL example… I explained April Fools Day to my 4 year old kid this morning for the first time. His first instinct was to wrap a piece of Lego in foil and have me write CHOC on it, then leave it outside the bedroom door for my wife (who was having a lie in). I think he gets it!
He’s been holding on to that prank for 4 years
I think The Lockpicking Lawyer (YouTuber)has consistently put out good April’s fools videos. I do have a sophomoric sense of humor though, and they are all based on innuendo.
Some absolute lunatic on Sysadmin made a joke about Broadcom purchasing Veeam.
No one should ever joke about being purchased by Broadcom after what they are doing to VMware.
Sadly I feel like this tradition is drying up more and more each year. I remember like 10-15 years ago tons of sites did really big things for the day. I honestly forgot today was April 1st until I saw this post. I miss it.
The folks over at [email protected] have been weighing books all day which has been fun :P
Satisfactory’s developer Coffee Stain Studio made a Satisfactory Direct video
It’s under two minutes so it has a pretty good joke/time ratio
Yes, I’ve been known to partake in some. Was sitting in the front seat of a bus, and the buses have a rule where, at all the train tracks, they’re supposed to briefly stop and open the bus doors to see if they hear any train coming before closing the door and driving onward again. The bus had stopped to do just that, and at that very moment, I played a train sound effect I had ready on my phone. The bus driver looks around and is weirded out by the “seeming invisible train”.
My kids mom made him a “cake”. It was actually meat loaf with dyed pink mashed potatoes instead of frosting.
Windows is very clean and performs very well
