Look at how often grindr crashes during right wing events. It’s already political, maybe just not in the back end.

- Comment on Home wifi router 1 week ago:
I just set up a Asus ZenWifi BE14000 to replace an old eero setup. I like it so far and haven’t experienced anything weird. I liked that it didn’t gate all the traffic shaping, new user notifications, and security behind a subscription paywall.

Does it smell like VCR Cleaner?

Seems like a perfect place to figure out tweaks to increase my Angband framerate. My current install is really pixelated. ;)
- Comment on this is a stickup 2 weeks ago:
That seems like it would be sticky.

Dice-play.com is a really good resource. We play a lot of farkle (older scoring not the commercial version), any Yahtzee, but lately we’ve been playing Ship, Captain, Crew, Knockout, and Centennial with the kids.

Nice! What game?
- Comment on Made my first model 4 weeks ago:
It occurs to me as well that the “completeness” of this amused me too.
- 1 tin
- 1 ~$5 package of dice
- 1 print
- 1 pencil from IKEA, your local golf course or wherever
- 1 pocketmod printout of games sized to fit the tin (a work in progress)
No spare parts, it’s all complete.
- Comment on Made my first model 4 weeks ago:
It’s not that we play a specific game that needs 10 dice, but I find that I can accommodate a whole lot of games if I have 10 dice. I originally thought of doing six because that would cover up through Farkle and then Yahtzee could come along for the ride, but then I realized that if I threw all the dice in the package in there, I could expand the optional games. Or running multiple games separately.
If I had 2 extra we could even play Bunco. So it was more that it fit and opened up a bunch of options.

- Comment on why are they pushing kpop demon hunters so badly? Who makes money off this new group? 4 weeks ago:
So let me see if I understand; a movie about Korean and Korean-adjacent pop stars who have existed throughout the ages to fend off spiritual/mythological beings, features Korean spirituality/mythological figures and symbolism.
You don’t say…
- Comment on Getting in on the library craze with the Reading Rainbow guy 5 weeks ago:
Depends on the charity/thrift store some states they have to/choose to hold it longer before they can put it out to make sure people aren’t trying to dump goods that were illicitly attained or don’t have the staff to process.

Sadly, I am aware of this gross-ass phenomenon.

I use kobo because I have a kobo reader and you can import any epub into their app and it will work great. Otherwise I like Yomu, it’s got a nice and clean interface.
- Comment on Hey Gen X and Elder Millennials, guess what's getting a proper retro release... 2 months ago:
That was a lot of fun, and I was absolutely terrible at it. My favorites were Advanced Dungeons & Dragons and Shark! Shark!
- Comment on Hey Gen X and Elder Millennials, guess what's getting a proper retro release... 2 months ago:
It came out in 79 and games were still being made into the late 80s.
- Comment on Hey Gen X and Elder Millennials, guess what's getting a proper retro release... 2 months ago:
It had 16 buttons (albeit the side buttons were ?almost always? Mirrored) and a multidirectional disk. And you had to keep a collection of plastic sheet inserts for each game. So bad, but I loved mine so much. I hated that the Atari only had a Joystick and 1 button at friends’ houses.
