I played the first game a lot when I was younger, the 16 color EGA version with a command line interface. I got pretty good at typing and spelling as a kid because of that game. The version I had was “Hero’s Quest”, it’s the same game, but a board game company sued them over the name, so later releases are called “Quest for Glory”.

Harbor freight will have these weird screwdriver tips in a kit within 12 months.

Until a significant portion of the population does the same

I think one bobsledder steers and another one runs the brakes.

Just one more

I tell my kid all the time, the fewer lies you tell, the less you have to remember.

I did once in my very early 20’s. She wasn’t happy with her husband, and she made the first move but I can’t say I’m innocent. Wish I could go back and not do it.

I have a strange problem with my other half when it comes to cheating. It’s nothing bad on either of us, no decision we made, but a set of circumstances has aligned to make me feel like I was cheating on my wife. She had a chronic medical issue that I managed to fix using good testing methods and a spreadsheet. As a result, she started feeling better, more energetic, inflammation went away, and she lost a good chunk of weight, which took her from “Adorable chubby wife” to “Holy shit, look at that MILF”. This, combined with some strange visual processing problem I have where I cant easily recognize faces, and for several months I felt like I was cheating on my wife.

Market speculation or quarterly profits.

We will burn that bridge when we get to it.

It’s easy to sit on the other side of the border or other side of the ocean from where this is going on and tell strangers to shoot people to assuage your conscience. Building parallel support systems takes time. Organizing takes time. And if you’re looking at our mainstream media, you’ll never know what is actually going on, because they are owned by the very people who want to kill or capture Americans.

Tl;dr: get over here and pick up a rifle, or keep your snide comments to yourself.

It’s a good thing that drones aren’t easy and fun for anyone to build…

Good Omens is the name of the book.

Agnes Nutter had concealed forty pounds of roofing nails and eighty pounds of gunpowder in her petticoat.

Which makes me wonder how much of a hulking beast she must have been to carry that.

This is for when they come to your house. At that point your best case scenario is that you’re dragged perfectly healthy to a concentration camp.

Good thing AI is something that doesn’t exist in physical space that someone can tamper with…

Last October my work PC was “upgraded” to windows 11… All the menus are wrong, nothing works like it should, and it keeps trying to get me to poison the air by using copilot. At home I use Linux Mint and it’s amazing. The only thing I’ve tried to do on Mint that it wouldn’t do is play one video game I have called Cosmoteer. Which is strange because I have a lot more complex programs and games that run fine.

Can also bury them raw and wiggling, good fertilizer.

Years ago, I built my mother in law a computer. It had windows XP on it. Every weirdo and their kid who visited her would download another bit of malware/toolbars/whatever, and about once a month I would have to fix it. So I put Ubuntu on it, and it literally never had a problem again. I’d use Mint now, but if you’re doing some basic games and web browsing, Linux is fine. I game with my pc, which uses Linux Mint, and the only issue I had was getting the Nvidia graphics card working. It wasn’t really hard for someone who builds computers but it might be difficult for a “normal” user.

The Viet Cong would like a word

Funny you should make this suggestion. I’ve been having a grand time figuring out how to make drones, can confirm it’s great fun for the whole family.

It’s not finished. It will look like this when they complete it. It’s a nature bridge.
