I’m struggling to get through the first of the Thieves’ World anthologies. I generally struggle with anthologies or short story collections because the character and the writing styles change so I can’t really be build up any momentum. The stories are generally enjoyable and it’s something that’s been on my reading list for a long time because one of the short story characters is one I really enjoy.

Great reader, by the way, kobo makes by far the superior device currently for a dedicated reader.

Just started The daughter of Doctor Moreau yesterday.

Before that, Rana Joon and the one and only now was absolutely wonderful and I really recommend it.

Currently I’m reading (if audiobooks count) Bookshops and Bonedust by Travis Baltree

I’m enjoying it so far, I really enjoyed Legends and Lattes by Travis Baltree as well so when this one came out it was an instant buy

Adventures of Lolo

I played this on an emulator decades later and it was my all time favorite NES game. I ended up beating all 3 multiple times.

So many NES games require perfect timing under strong time pressure. This one being a puzzle game also requires some timing but you can plan your trip and try again if you mess up.

I actually helped develop levels for a copycat game some rando I met online made, it was fun!

How’s the pinball one? Is it literally just called pinball? I’ve definitely played an old pinball game before but can’t remember the name or system but I love me some retro pinball lol

This one is just called Pinball, it is a first-party Nintendo game.

I love NES pinball. I do not like pinball games with realistic physics (too fast and too difficult). This one feels more like a game instead of a real pinball machine. Also, this one has a bonus stage with Mario in it.

I also like how clear and bright the visuals are. Too many newer pinball games are cluttered and flashy.

Space Cadet and NES pinball are my favourite video pinball games of all time.

What Lemmy client is that?

Fudoshin OP ,
@Fudoshin@feddit.uk avatar

Boost for Lemmy. It’s got ads and closed source but it’s by far the best app I’ve used.

@ladfrombrad@lemdro.id avatar

Probably read the rules and post in !androidmemes, which got auto populated by Boost for Lemmy upon me typing it. Which was fucking neat.

Then, learn how to use adb shell list packages` to list your entire app list.

Also, androidcirclejerk has a really good list of the common apps peeps usually jerk about, but I ain’t linking weddit.

Good luck!

Tristaniopsis , to casualuk in A divided nation

I’ve never known Fife and Dundonian accents to be described as ‘pretentious’.

waz ,

Divisive meme is divisive? I assumed it was just a too big bubble for Edinburgh

Tristaniopsis ,

Yeah. I think they just made it too big for Edinburgh, as you say.

But to be honest, most of the folk I know fae the ‘burgh are nae posh.

Mojojojo1993 ,

Dundonian accent is mad. It’s probably the most out there. Like Russian or baltic.

Tristaniopsis ,

I disagree, but whatever. You need to spend more regional time around Scotland.

Mojojojo1993 ,

What are you disagreeing with ? I lived in Edinburgh for 25 years. 4 years in Dundee. I’ve been to most Scottish cities. Easy Coast and west I haven’t really visited and none of the islands. No higher than Inverness. Never been to ullapool or however it’s spelt.

Tristaniopsis ,

Ok fair enough. Maybe my 25 years in Dundee and 2 years in Edinburgh inured me to the accent.

Mojojojo1993 ,

Who knows. I met very few Dundonians. Mostly people from Edinburgh. But the ones I did meet had mad accents. Maybe it was just them

Tristaniopsis ,

How could you spend 4 years on Dundee and not meet many Dundonians?

Mojojojo1993 ,

Exactly.

Where were they?

The pubs the clubs the shops. Everyone. They all were from outside Dundee.

We lived in the city centre for 2 years and all the days were filled with students. Was wild.

Tristaniopsis ,

Weird. What years?

Mojojojo1993 ,

2009 to 2012

The Golden years

Tristaniopsis , (edited )

You were clearly going to the wrong pubs if you wanted to meet the locals.

Drouthy Neebors was the spot.

Mojojojo1993 ,

Where was that. I Googled it and largs came up.

The locals we knew lived in the alley behind us. We did not interact with them.

Tristaniopsis ,

I’ve corrected the spelling, sorry. On Perth Road across from art college. Mostly artist, musician, skater crowd.

Mojojojo1993 ,

Where in Dundee? I know one in Edinburgh. Just down the road from where I used to stay
