Ya win some, ya learn some.

Earlier in the story arc they got to their campsite by canoe. In the 80s it’s totally reasonable that they didn’t know when the rain was going to break.

There were just enough pixels in the first panel that I was able to find the video. I haven’t watched it myself.

Looks like $250 to me? 50 grand for 200 devices?

They do/did here in Virginia. They’re “skill games” or something. Some law changed it something because they’ve been turned off with a sign taped to the screen for a while now.

That’s great. One of mine is remembering that the Guy on a buffalo videos exist.

I went through the same path. Gmail came to mind first, then eBay, then a MUD I haven’t actually played in ages but double check that my account is there now and then.

It always is.

Searching Lunar Laundry on google maps shows me a spot in Seattle. I’d guess that either KG moved between this post and the screenshot, or hasn’t updated their Yelp profile since moving to Seattle.

It’s not even consistent within the US. I’ve known people who, if they said that sentence over the phone it would sound a lot like “E as in A”

Be the change you want to see in the word.

Is it just me, or do programmers only come in “lightweight” and “Rivals Þor in trying to drink the oceans dry” varieties?

Somehow I manage to be both. My alcohol tolerance is very high (which is great… I like a little buzz but never want to be actually drunk), but for me, one toke is over the line.

I’m not native, but have lived in Philly. The bell peppers bother me. Wiz, American, provolone, or Swiss all are pretty common in my experience. As is no cheese at all, which this appears to be. But then it’s not a cheesesteak, it’s a steak.

No, that’s a person who always believes they’re sick. You’re thinking of hemophiliac.

He did post another performance last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBKm1MBsTbk

Just like within actual government there’s supposed to be balance of power between different branches or houses, there’s this idea that the role of the press is to hold governments accountable.

(More of an ELI12, but that’s the gist of the idea)

I’ve been running opensuse for years now. It’s great. Welcome aboard

It Could Happen Here is often talking about what’s going on that week in the world. I wouldn’t try to listen to their whole backlog, but I usually catch an episode or two a week.

Behind the Bastards is great. Since I found it (Summer 2020, I’d reckon), I’ve listened to most of what has come out since.

Cool People who did Cool Stuff is a sort of spin off of btb. Deep dives on people and movements who were resisting the bastards. It’s only been going on a couple of years, so the backlog is more manageable if that’s your thing.

I listen to Past Times on the Dollop feed most weeks. The Dollop is another deep dive history podcast. On Past Times, they read headlines and articles from different newspaper every week. Usually from the late 19th through early 20th century, but they’ve gone as far back as the 1600s.

Anything by Jamie Loftus is great. She’s mostly done short run things on a single topic. She’s on the Bechdel cast, too which I listen to occasionally.

You might enjoy The Deprogram, which has a less daunting backlog.
