Just a nerd who migrated from kbin(dot)social.
Really? I saw a forecast of up to 22 inches this weekend at the highest (I think the highest confidence across all models was around 14" from Friday to Sunday). I hope your friend in Kentucky can either hunker down or has a plan to evacuate if it’s worse than that.
Ah, you’re on the eastern seaboard too.
Yeah, I’m reacting kinda like Radar, honestly.
Yes, because when we deal with psychological issues, most people focus on treating the symptoms.
Problem: They would take that unironically and agree.
It means Multi User Dungeon. It’s a networked multiplayer game, usually focused on dungeon-crawling as the name suggests. Early ones were based heavily on BD&D and AD&D, but others got more creative.
Because a MUD that isn’t part of a BBS feels wrong to me.
We need to get MUDs more popular again. But that would require getting Telnet popular again.
Yeah, nope. No matter what OS, no matter what specs, I’m going to keep my PC.
When did I say anything about whether it matters or not? Belief doesn’t imply importance. It matters, because the people I care about could be hurt or worse. I just don’t have a belief that it’s inclined towards one path or another.
If not surrendering, you’re toast, community or not. They’ll kill you for resisting before your community can mobilize. So you end up in a different list in the back of a history textbook.
Of those two, I lean toward classical nihilist; I believe nothing but what I’ve experienced in my own self. Pessimists believe that everything gets worse; My hope is that it changes for the growth of our society.
Surrender and recognize you might get a listing in the back of a history book someday, if they don’t win. PS: They will likely win.
The challenge is that there are “Patriots” out there. There are three Americas, realistically: The South & Midwest, The North & Coasts, and the minority experience. One of those is “patriotic”, with the idea that the other two need to be killed.
I almost hope so. But with the speed of M.2 and other formats, I wonder how much is going to end up being swap space use.
Fortran, all day every day. Because every byte of the 1969 code is there for a reason.
Double or triple the deposit. That might help.
It was absolutely important to the community, and outlasted the Alliance forums. I wish we had a good place like that anymore. Has anyone opened an m/Animorphs in the fediverse yet?
I think I was briefly on Richard’s forum, but I couldn’t tell you what my username was. I was also in the official community that Scholastic ran (and because of being a helpful kid, I actually helped in the server room at Valley Cottage after a sale when there were hardware problems).
He was a wargamer to start out with. Of course he was going to end up being a massive dick.
That having God in the final episode of Quantum Leap (the original) being played by an actor who was also in the first episode of the series made it much more interesting.
I hope you mean the original series and not the reboot. I don’t think he ever admits that’s what he is. My personal belief is that Captain Braxton of the Relativity was lying through his teeth to Sam (in order to preserve the Temporal Prime Directive), and directs him to the biggest Leap of his career, Captain Jonathan Archer in the First Contact timeline, because that whole timeline represents “what once went wrong”.
Agreed! Thank goodness for WFH in times of inclement weather like this.
