Great! Weird issue with the old SIM but at least the new one is up and running 🙂

Not sure on game compatibility with physical keyboards as I haven’t played a mobile game in, oh, twelve years? Something like that, anyways!

Yeah, I dislike onscreen keyboards too. Granted, I haven’t picked up a physical one but I probably will one day.

I took a…[Read more]

Haven’t had a chance to read it yet but had an interesting article come in related to what we were discussing: https://futurism.com/the-byte/biologist-says-sun-conscious

Over the course of the last few months, it looks like the seed for the random number generator in Master Duel is set on load instead of being randomized before each round. Could be wrong and just be incredibly unlucky but I have had days where I get awesome hands each round for the session and other days where I get zilch each time. Generally,…[Read more]

Went ahead and moved this thread to the public area 🙂

Yeah, he will be missed 🙁

😀

Just realized that I haven’t shared Hammerfall in close to a decade. Need to fix that!

Saw The Driller Killer yesterday and it was pretty ho hum. I disagree with the reception on that and the categorization as a black comedy. The slasher aspects and the basic plot were only loosely linked together and there was no fanfare at all with the slasher bits, just people getting drilled up for no apparent rhyme or reason. They also overdid…[Read more]

Tardigrades are near indestructible! 😀

Yep, many different possibilities that definitely need consideration. Take Venus, for instance. There are some theories that microbial life could be living in its clouds. Fortunately, this is a planned mission but by a private party. We need more publicly funded missions to keep the private sectors from…[Read more]

I’ve seen a variety of flavored soaps, too! Used to be pretty popular but that trend seems to have waned 😛

About half the cost is for the grading and cover price. The grading service is 15 – 20 USD depending on outfit and the cover price is 6 – 7 USD. Looks like it’s also signed so that adds additional value. Personally, though, I wouldn’t pay…[Read more]

Yep! Got them the other week 🙂 Haven’t had the opportunity to do much with them yet, though. It’s either been pouring rain or too humid 🙁

Yep, got a multimeter but I may need a new one. This one is ten years old and was a freebie from a discount store so I’ll need to test it and even then its accuracy may be rather questionable 😛

Cool! I’d…[Read more]

It was mostly a joke game but had a lot of publicity 😛 Haven’t played it myself yet but I’ve been meaning to just for the “fun” of it 😛

Yep! Most the games are your standard fighter fair but that does make some sense as the most popular series (DBZ and Super) are all about fighting. They did make an RPG a couple of years back, Kakarot,…[Read more]

Over here, our local OTA ads are pretty much medication related or for personal injury lawyers now. In some cases, ads are run but the product is never even mentioned at all in the ad, save in the fine print that you need to get up to the TV to see, so they aren’t all that effective. I miss the days of fun ads! 🙁

Smellovision! 😀 Disney still…[Read more]

There’s always Goat Simulator! 😛

Started watching the original Dragon Ball the other day and it’s a lot of fun. Very different from DBZ and I quite like it! 🙂

Hasn’t been edited in five years? That’s a lifetime in tech years (not really!)! 😛

I’m surprised people actually cheat at solitaire!

Yep, it is an odd term. The talk page is filled with cleanup discussion but I didn’t see that mentioned. “Minor” or “small” would be a better fit if they didn’t have a number handy 🙂

Cool!

Yeah, they forcibly pushed Copilot out a few weeks ago and turned it on by default. I don’t have plans to use it so I’ve got it turned off. 🙂

Yuck! Really not sure what could be going on with it 🙁

🙁 We don’t have many candy shops left in Florida but several other states still have a healthy ( 😛 ) amount of them. Most of our “candy” here is the hard sugar and artificially flavored stuff we pick up in the supermarket. Have made my own before with real ingredients and it turns out so much better! One of these days, I plan to make marshmallow…[Read more]

Regarding Europa, from the recent studies they’re now leaning towards life not being able to survive but enough oxygen to somewhat support a colony of sorts. I find fault with this as I still believe it’s a mistake assuming oxygen is required for life as a whole. A specific example on Earth is the tardigrade. If they can live in a vacuum, why…[Read more]

Yeah, that’s a known issue in bbPress that’s fixed in the dev version (2.6.7 I think) but hasn’t been pushed downstream. Here’s the link: https://github.com/bbpress/bbPress/commit/bbde786798c47b61f1ef87bd049224f351458b7b

Probably worth forwarding to Robin to see if they can fix it on their end 🙂

I’ve had issues on Linux as well! Granted, those have been due to the package maintainers pushing out a bad configuration file and refusing to fix it after they were made aware of it

Has issues with Nvidia drivers in the past on both operating systems. They claimed it was hardware related but everything pointed to a fault in the common driver…[Read more]

Updated the AMD drivers from 23 to 24 the other day and, while the update itself went smoothly, there were some oddities after install. I always try to leave the settings at the defaults when I can to keep wonkiness away and after the update the fans kept revving up more in heavy resource programs (this was on Windows). I tried capping the frame…[Read more]

Didn’t care too much for Bogus Journey, really liked the first one more. Something about it just seemed a little off, as though their heart just wasn’t in it.

I’m not sure we can even get MadTV over here. Makes me sad. I used to enjoy it when I was a kid 🙁

Saw Night Game the other day and the acting was pretty good but the plot was horrendous.…[Read more]
