- Comment on Curing Ironshank in Caves of Qud made me feel like I'm playing NetHack CoQ’s 1 week ago:
I had no idea Caves of Qud was a game and was very confused for a bit, heh.
- Comment on Well.... we are fuked. 2 weeks ago:
Probably the national anthem. Back in the days when TV stations stopped for the day, that was one of the things they might play before the test pattern (or static) began.
- Comment on Where there people in the 1980's who refused to call 3.5" floppy disks floppy disks? 2 weeks ago:
I was still a kid in the ‘80s, but basically grew up around (and in, sometimes), computer stores and computers. I don’t recall hearing this.
- Comment on How many of us are actually into football (and what teams)? 2 weeks ago:
I’m not into any variety of football. I enjoy seeing an odd highlight or good play, but not the whole match. I played for 3 years in school (and american football for one), but I don’t really enjoy eatching it. Ice Hockey is probably the thing I most enjoy and even that is mostly only if I go in person.
- Comment on Archaeologists find 7,000-year-old headless skeletons in Slovakia 4 weeks ago:
Now the hunt is on for skeletonless heads!
- Comment on It'll totally happen this time bro you gotta sell ALL your stuff! 5 weeks ago:
I think the line was about the ‘day and time’ or something so others are like “I’m not doing that; I’m just going to predict the day!” I can’t remember the exact way.
- Comment on Email ownership, I give up. 5 weeks ago:
I used to run my own mailserver, but I haven’t in years now since it was so much of a pain. Not even the set-up part; that wasn’t the worst thing in the world. It’s uptime, back-ups, and other considerations that just require time and money I don’t have.

Chaucer?! That hack? You young upstarts haven’t even read Gower, I bet.
