The N64 was the only Nintendo console I skipped. I just couldn’t afford two consoles and the PlayStation was obviously a better choice, but I still kinda wish I had gotten to experience Ocarina and Majora’s Mask when they were brand new and not years later on the GameCube. I played at my friend’s houses, but just hated that controller. The Wavebird made it a bit more palatable, but it was still just too “avante garde” for its own good. Feels like I needed yo shove a mop handle in the expansion port and use it as a trident.

Southern Hemisphere. It’s late spring there.

Vulture or Type-10 for me. Especially at T-10 with moar spoiler.

Get the permit for Shinrarta Dezhra and go to Jameson Memorial. Every ship, weapon, and module all in one convenient location.

I’ve been saying that about Twitter and Reddit from the beginning. Both have been platforms responsible for significant progressive organization. The Arab Spring would likely not have happened without Twitter. Conservatives know they cannot compete in the “marketplace of ideas”, so their only means to compete is to silence the competition by dismantling the platforms progressives use to organize and communicate their ideas.

I earnestly believed that quicksand was going to be a far more prevalent danger in my life than it has.

Love Steve. Dude is always on point.

I know. The keyboard I have on Android lacks a backslash. I did just find it on the Samsung keyboard, though, so

C:\DOOM\DOOM.EXE

C:\DOOM\DOOM.EXE Edit: Fixed wrong slashes because crappy Android keyboard was missing it. Swapped keyboard.

Yeah. All those damned Jewish Nazis in charge over there.

If you were any dumber, you’d be a doorstop.

Your comment misses the very important point that nobody who experienced this issue had the clairvoyance to screenshot their cleared profile on Day A to prove that their comments were restored on Day B, C, or D. You’re expecting someone to have explicitly predicted that exact circumstance and deliberately documented it before it ever happened to them. That’s like complaining to your neighbor they they can’t prove the scratch wasn’t already in their car door after they watch you hit it with your own.

This is almost poetry. Love it!

I was super excited for my Transformers Legacy Skyquake to arrive today.

It didn’t arrive, which is a bummer.

But I get to look forward to getting it tomorrow, and I’m still really excited for it!

I used Linux Mint for several years on a dual-boot laptop. I rarely found myself booting Windows. While there was a learning curve, Mint was fairly accessible out of the box and was generally a delight to use. Until it wasn’t. At some point, the drivers for my video card updated, and just flat broke everything. And I can’t really use a computer on which I can’t see the desktop. I waited. And waited. A fix for the driver may have eventually come, but after awhile, booting into Windows just became my default, until eventually I just wiped the Linux partition to recover the storage space.

It was fun while it lasted, and I may choose one day to give it another go for the fourth time. This wasn’t the first time I’ve had something like this happen. First time was with Fedora, and the second was Ubuntu. Each time, I had the same “it worked until it didn’t” experience, and each time it stopped working was usually some kind of broken driver making my hardware incompatible.

Honestly, I feel like a lot of that was backlash to the insane number of Russians using cheats and hacks in Counter Strike, Ghost Recon, and Call of Duty. I played a lot around 2000-2010, and more often than not, if a match was ridiculously tilted, it was a Russian or Chinese player using wallhacks.

Here’s my example: I subscribed to Paramount Plus explicitly for Star Trek content. The week I subscribed, they pulled all of the non-Abrams films. So I got to watching other stuff. Eventually, they brought all of the films back. Cool, right?

So I finally get around to Prodigy, a show made for Paramount Plus. Two episodes in, and it vanishes. No announcements or warnings that that show was just going to disappear. It’s gone. Because “it wasn’t popular enough”. A show that only existed on that one platform was pulled off of that platform with absolutely no other legal way to view it. Content that I specifically signed up for that platform to see, and now I can’t… legally. Yo ho, yo ho, me hardies.

Same. For $9. Including a drink and popcorn. $11 for a ticket with a large drink and large popcorn.

My local Orpheum is $9 for adult tickets and includes a drink and a regular popcorn. $11 gets you a ticket, large drink, and large popcorn. Drink refills are $1. Both theaters have recliners, couches, and Love seats at the back. They’re awesome! Though you have to show up quite early if you want a comfy seat.
