If you live in the like I do, then you're still down for with a application called toot.

firefly ,

I use 'toot' and 'tut'. Tut works nicer with some servers because of a datetime format bug in 'toot' python library that occasionally crashes it. Tut hasn't crashed on me so far.

TUT ==> https://tut.anv.nu/

I like to use the 'toot' shell commands for scripting and for snarfing posts to files.

Everyone looking forward to PS5 Pro is actually a PC gamer in their heart, dreaming of having an option to spend money on a more powerful graphics card.

@sharan I actually agree. I think PC remains what it has always been for people who prefer it that way, but consoles distanced themselves SLIGHTLY from what they used to be. There is now too much emphasis on resolution, framerate, options, etc in console space.

Digital Foundry has a million YT followers talking about console games running at 25 fps in certain scenarios. This kind of content has changed console gamers to be like PC gamers, but it doesn't work. 🤷

  • Not a rant.

@nazokiyoubinbou console game developers used to create game for particular hardware and you would always get fluid gameplay. Nowadays developers fail to optimize their game and hope that more powerful hardware gets released. And users support this way of doing things...

BUT Nezam grows old. Can has daughter Javaneh, born of a concubine, hold it together when he dies?

@elonjet So, with this one flight, from Rome to Austin, his jet produced 6 times the carbon footprint that my car has produced in total over the four years I've had it. Granted, I can't drive to Rome, but my car has covered 47,000 miles in that time, or 8 times this distance.

What games would you suggest that have LAN support these days?

While PC may be one's first thought here, I'd also be really interested in any mobile games that might leverage one's local wifi network for multiplayer.

Classics are a-okay for suggestion too, btw!

This was the one I was looking for. I believe there is an updated version of crusader as well.

The infinity room at the House On The Rock

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_on_the_Rock

I've lived in Wisconsin for many, many years, and had read about it in @neilhimself 's American Gods -- but didn't actually visit until last week.

I only took a finite amount of time to explore the Infinity Room. I wonder what Zeno would say about that. 🤔

@Monina6969 @golgaloth @neilhimself

I missed a lot of stuff from the book in Season 1, and S2 was clearly too late to bring all of that back. I loved S1 and still enjoyed S2, but I think it would have been even better if they'd made S1 longer. There was much more that could have been told there.

S2 was definitely more like Dr Who than the apocalyptic stakes of S1, but I guess you can do that only once.

Rifle club met at the school. Students took their guns to school for show and tell then left them in the trunk or gun rack in the school parking lot. Nobody got shot.

"In 1975, New York state had over 80 school districts with rifle teams."

https://www.nationalreview.com/2013/01/gun-clubs-school-charles-c-w-cooke/

"Much has changed over time. While more than 100,000 students walked out of school to support gun control, it wasn’t that long ago that students went to school with firearms. At one time, even New York City Public High Schools actually had gun ranges on campus."

"Below is a picture of the 1931 girls’ rifle team outside Huntington (NY) High School."

https://www.themix.net/2018/04/high-school-gun-ranges/

Imagine that, students had high-powered rifles at school and they didn't mass shoot each other. Some schools had shooting ranges and gun lockers. In some parts of the country students and teachers kept their guns in the trunks of their cars on campus.

In the 1960s my dad and uncles regularly walked across town with their rifles, and across the high school campus to go hunting in the woods at that edge of town. No one ever called the cops on them. No swat team ever showed up to disarm the "dangerous" gun toters. You could hardly find anyone that didn't have guns and take them out for target plinking and hunting.

Even when I was a kid, in the small town I lived in, we still drove around with our guns in the trunk or gun rack. Nobody batted an eyelash. In the part of the country that I currently live in most people have guns and many carry handguns. The only shooting we've had in years was when a trigger-happy cop decided to shoot some young man because the cop, "was afraid."

The photo attached to this post shows real "female empowerment."
