- Comment on Sequel to Star Control 2 - The Ur-Quan Masters 1 month ago:
Man, this was my favorite game to introduce friends to during the BBS days. Two player melee over a shared keyboard! The music in SC2 was top notch MOD/XM music back when trackers were starting to form a genre. Beeps on computers were the norm but you could hear a drum track over the internal PC speaker in this game. IMHO Tunic is the only game that came close to the wonder and awe of exploring. Absolutely a masterpiece.
Babu’s game room has my favorite YouTube review. I’ll let the bot pipe the link

Paper Phenolic makes an excellent bokken material. I have a set. Hanbo and bo are also amazing.

“Trust in numbers” was an eye opening book I had to read for a university course.

The idea that “It’s difficult to get numbers to tell you the truth” despite how people tend to think hard data is not falsifiable - was my main take.

Wow, collapse OS is quite the rabbit hole. Makes me think of the bootstrapping work described in en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Children_of_the_Sky

Shout out to the Ti-8X users and anyone who remembers zshell.
I doubt this announcement is going to affect the calculators, but it’s amazing to see how many things still run off this technology.
- Comment on We Need To Rewild The Internet | NOEMA 2 months ago:
A poignant quote here
"It was a disaster so bad that a new word, Waldsterben, or “forest death,” was minted to describe the result. All the same species and age, the trees were flattened in storms, ravaged by insects and disease — even the survivors were spindly and weak. Forests were now so tidy and bare they were all but dead. "

Quake? The FPS? I’m confused, though I knew a little about Linux
- Comment on What’s Usenet and how can I access it with modern hardware (phones/laptops)? 4 months ago:
It’s really neat to think of Usenet as ‘federated’ considering that’s a new term for most of us.
My preferred options are: Binsearch, astraweb, and newsbin
You get what you pay for, a bargain IMHO

But the moon and the sun can’t be in the sky at the same time. Otherwise it would be night time in the day!

Thank you for the heads up on broken ultra wide. I wish this was considered a showstopper for most game developers but I digress…
- Comment on Notes on using a single-person Mastodon server 10 months ago:
“One thing that wasn’t obvious to me is that who servers defederate / limit is sometimes hidden, so it’s hard to suss out what’s going on if you’re considering joining a server, or trying to understand why you can’t see certain posts.”
Can lemmy users compare defederated info between servers? think it would be informative as well.

Nice to play some Q2 Deathmatch with people. Real lag. Feels like the good ol’ days!
