Yeah, it’ll be a big job for sure. I suppose I could start by checking public record and going from there. Have to start somewhere!
Are you clicking the icon in the window border that also gives you the drop down options for Minimize or maximize or the File menu? It’s usually in the former if available 🙂
Though, it looks like it’s been removed from the newer tabbed version. No idea how we’re supposed to copy now. 🙁
Cool! At the cemetery that a lot of family uses, some of the graves for the oldest relations are so old (by Florida standards, at least) that it’s very hard to identify them, especially with them being around the time the Civil War was heating up. The records from that period are pretty poor so we’ve only got a general idea of who they belong to. Interestingly, the cemetery is laid out sort of like the branches of our family tree where each offshoot has its own grouping of graves so while we don’t know exactly who they belong to, we can get a good idea of the relations 🙂
To copy in the terminal, you need to select it then click the window menu in the top left, then click copy. Ctrl-C and Ctrl-Z terminate the job and send it to the background after pausing, respectively. Hope that helps 🙂
It’s nothing special, just a long rectangle about four inches wide and two feet long and an inch high. Think it was scrap from something. Not sure what! I’m using it as a pedestal for my miniature rock garden 😛
Hopefully the new one isn’t as finicky! Still enjoying my Roku Ultra. Absolutely no problems with it and it’s a lot more responsive than the other models. 🙂
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 look around the settings and didn’t see any options to turn off the new eye candy that came with OneUI 6 that’s partly the culprit of the battery drain. 🙁
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, this pattern means the seed isn’t changing. It gets rather frustrating as you can generally predict how things are going to go after the first few rounds. It’s also a weird design choice for a card game
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 the quantity of kills by doing one right after another in a sort of montage scene while upbeat music was, incongruously, playing.
Still haven’t played Dragon’s Dogma yet even though it’s been on the wish-list for years. Really need to change that 🙁
I’ve heard pretty good things about Sex, Lies, and Videotape. It has come up OTA periodically but I just haven’t had the opportunity to watch it. Maybe one day!
Looks great! Reminds me of Adam Savage’s Tested! 😀
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 laying exclusive claim to any findings but I digress.
This could very well be extended to stars and gas giants, as you mentioned. In Skyward Sword, we had this lovely fellow. May sound a bit farfetched but it’s quite possible! Who knows what lies beyond our understanding?
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 more than 10 USD for an issue 😛
I wouldn’t have minded if it weren’t such an odd one. Yeah, I’m sure they could have trained it with enough data entry (not sure how those things work).
Interesting article in the most recent issue of Nature. They’re talking about how things keep falling down the digital memory hole and need to be better preserved. Haven’t read it yet as I’m still a few weeks behind but the Internet Archive definitely needs continued support so we don’t lose all of this important stuff!
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 start with a bit of polish and see what it looks like after the dirt and grime comes up. Found a slab of marble buried in my garden bed under a few inches of dirt when I was digging one day and it cleaned right up!
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, following Goku’s life but I haven’t checked it out yet even though it goes on sale pretty often. They could easily do an adventure game based on Dragon Ball since that’s less fighting and more about making friends and hunting the Dragon Balls. Seems like a missed opportunity!
Awakening looks like it’s the digital version of the physical card game. The actual card game used to be pretty popular but has waned in recent years but I think our LGS may still sell some packs (not sure, though).
Fallout could be a good one for a series as it’s got a lot of lore to it that they can explore, especially the time before the games. Will be quite interesting to see how it turns out! They’re also doing a tie in with the Magic card game. They just did an LotR tie-in, not sure how Fallout fits in 😛
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 uses it for some of their attractions!
I knew some of the artwork in Batman 143 looked rather odd when it came out and someone did some investigating as they felt the same and it turns out that it may have been AI generated. The style didn’t even fit in with the surrounding artwork. It was very weird
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 with real mallow! 🙂 Fun fact: the Egyptians used to use them as cough drops!
Haven’t seen that one before 😛
Now we just need Stallone with Rocky! 😀
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 shouldn’t we expect other forms of life to do the same?
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 🙂
