I think I’m settled on using the apple to play since I bothered to recap it.
what you are saying is what I came up with, but I figured that there had to be a better way.
- Comment on Is the bards tale (1) really hard or am not good? 3 days ago:
I had been doing that

I have the printed help guide , but it seems to assume some kind of basic competence. The version on my floppy emu is cracked, but I think the game may just be hard, not altered

I tried. Pulling the power while in a losing battle resulted in naked characters with no inventory
- Comment on Is the bards tale (1) really hard or am not good? 3 days ago:
Yes. It auto saves as you adventure…

Yes.

I didn’t read this and just pasted this into a llm
- Comment on Jensen Huang says Nvidia engineers should use AI tokens worth half their annual salary every year to be fully productive 5 days ago:
This is clearly a situation where you are expected to spend 100% of a budget to keep your job.
- Comment on Jensen Huang says Nvidia engineers should use AI tokens worth half their annual salary every year to be fully productive 5 days ago:
That is not at all what the article says. It’s way more self serving than that.

So I found it kind of sucks to have those daily life tasks removed. I worked in a place early in my career that had on site catered food, on site laundry, on site massage, shopping services (before Amazon prime) and lodging for excessive overtime .
If it’s just leaving you more opportunity to work it sucks. I can’t be the only one who enjoys taking care of the daily life tasks Lê cleaning, shopping and cooking for myself. It’s what personalizes your life. When you do it for yourself, you decide what you eat and what you wear.
It seems cool but it’s offered so you never stop working and your life is never really your own.
- Comment on Bring Back the Burned CD— They’re a love language. And a reminder of the hope we once had. 1 week ago:
I went looking for data and it seems cd sales are on the decline again. So my info is outdated. It looks like it was trending younger with Taylor swift and k-pop titles as the top sellers. It appears to be less of a revival and more of a fad.
It looks like vinyl is still growing in 2026 even while cd decrease again.
It’s a bummer since artist can get a bigger cut of physical media sales and cd are easier to make than a records.
- Comment on Bring Back the Burned CD— They’re a love language. And a reminder of the hope we once had. 1 week ago:
In audio circles stamped cd’s have been making a comeback. It’s much like the last decades vinyl revival.
It’s not the older generations getting nostalgia, it’s the younger generations looking for ‘experience’ over content. Buying a physical thing, storing on the shelf, having a visible collection of disks to show off.
Additionally it is a revenue stream for artists, where else spite the costs of mastering a d pressing a cd, they can get more money from a cd release than from streaming. So artists have been incentivized do make releases a big deal since they money goes straight to them. It’s a bit like a ‘buy me a coffee’ but with a physical item.
You can buy brand new cd players, not just blueray players or vintage units that need service.
It’s a thing.

I trained a series of neurons to play doom when I was 7.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 2 weeks ago:
LoL… Career path. I worked on a farm and it wasn’t mine. I’m pretty certain I can’t afford a farm.
I do appreciate your optimism and advocacy on solar farming. A house with a roof full of solar is all I really wanted. I’d like a few panels that I an plug in for my patio. The technology in the article is right up my alley.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 2 weeks ago:
Thanks. I may have more questions.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 2 weeks ago:
I would stop at buying a house. I worked on a farm. I now work with computers. It is on purpose.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 2 weeks ago:
I’m really interested in this technology. I can’t get a roof solar installation. I want a add a few panels but I don’t know where to practically start.
- Comment on Asus Co-CEO: MacBook Neo Is a 'Shock' to the PC Industry 2 weeks ago:
Given the ram apocalypse, I think you’ll see many entry level pcs with 8gb as well.
Apple is either just that good or just that lucky that they are shipping an 8gb machine right after ram prices went parabolic.
At any other time this would be a harder item to sell.

- Comment on Apple introduces Macbook Neo - cheaper Macbooks starting at $599 3 weeks ago:
They have had an ‘affordable’ Mac for a lot of their history. The Mac mini was a downright value for a while. They have had near $1000 laptops for most of my memory.
- Comment on Polish Train Maker Is Suing the Hackers Who Exposed Its Anti-Repair Tricks 4 weeks ago:
It’s always great to see how the EU handles IP and large companies compared to the US.
If the articles series of events and statements are true I wonder if the hackers will win. The company initiating the lock initially created a state where un-serviced trains locked up. It seems a straightforward case of bug fixing that is allowed in EU law.
- Comment on How do you effectively backup your high (20+ TB) local NAS? 4 weeks ago:
Lto tape. But I only have 15tb
It quickly becomes cost effective when you actually need the data to be safe. Far easier to have off site backups. Most of the time my data is static. So I am only backing up projects files ans changes for the most part.
If you have 100+ tb of dynamic data I can’t help there.

- Comment on New to me, 27" Sansui! (And a question..) 1 month ago:
CRT’s don’t ‘kinda’ break. I suspect you are seeing some kind of wire that makes up the structure of the set ans it visibly fades when it warms up.

I can’t remember them. Doesn’t mean they are good or bad, just didn’t stick with me like 8 did.

This was one of my favorite games on the ps2. I think I spent nearly 130 hours on it playing a few times through.
- Comment on Russia Launches First Brain-Chipped Bird Drones for Surveillance Over Cities 1 month ago:
That is what I was getting out without trying to use the loaded words.
- Comment on Russia Launches First Brain-Chipped Bird Drones for Surveillance Over Cities 1 month ago:
This is a remote control situation. The bird would do bird things once out of a control signal. They aren’t claiming full override and programming. I could easily see strapping a camera to a pigeon and training it. Maybe even remotely monitoring it and using a pre-trained electrical pulse to change direction.
- Comment on Russia Launches First Brain-Chipped Bird Drones for Surveillance Over Cities 1 month ago:
This an an absolutely exceptional claim that would put the company decades beyond any tech I have seen. They are claiming remote control of a complicated animal in flight. They also claim it is without training and over distances impossible for a bird as small as a pigeon to carry radio gear.
This is not believable without any evidence.
