You did great for a first-timer! I made two sets of very similar stairs and I was very proud of them when I was done. They’re quite difficult to do but when you finally get in there, like you said, it clicks. Hardest part was getting the stringers right, second hardest part for me was the landing, since I poured concrete and as you can see, I got it wrong by about 6 inches, lol.

Gasoline is $5. Diesel is $7.

Oh interesting to see Space Jockey using the Motter Tektura font from Apple’s early days. Copyright is 1982, so they were definitely cashing in, as Apple had been using this font for their logo for nearly 5 years by that point.

“What you lose” OK, lol.

The 2600 versions? Yeah, I do.

Let’s see. The games suck, so that’s no help, they’re all uniformly terrible nobody wants to actually play them. You can readily buy actual copies of the original versions for about the same price, so they aren’t really collectible. Atari has very little cache among gamers (relative to say, Nintendo).

Who is this for again?

I’ve been using Eden for almost a year now off and on. Performance is pretty flawless, there are some graphical glitches here and there, but nothing that outright breaks the games. Eden didn’t supply the keys, I guess that’s the difference.

I tried Ryujinx and couldn’t get it to work for shit on Mint, but on Steam Deck it actually works fantastic.

Let’s put another dumb religious cunt in charge of something, that’s always worked out in the past.

hops just have to be closer.

It doesn’t take much of a leap of imagination to see a torrent-like system utilizing all available devices within earshot to spread the bandwidth around to realize a pretty fast system available nearly everywhere in dense urban areas and slower (but ubiquitous) coverage the more rural you get. Obviously we’re far away from that now, but this definitely seems like the future to me.

I believe this stuff is going to be huge. Reticulum, Lora, Meshtastic all bit players now in a drama that has yet to get a finished script. It will start out as a supplement to the Internet, allowing you connectivity even when your Internet falters and as it becomes more ubiquitous, it will be increasingly used/usable and increasingly important. It can’t be shut down, it can’t be controlled. A country would literally have to ban radio signals of any kind in order to shut it down. It’s free. Buy the hardware, use the network, because you are the network. I love this.

I’m in the “been working with Linux since the 90s” gang so I call vim vi and nano pico and when I started there was a coolness factor to be considered. I was incredibly uncool so I used whatever I wanted, including pico - I mean you used pine for email back in the day and the interface was nearly identical, so whatever.

But I did want to be at least a tiny bit cooler, so I learned vi in a fairly rudimentary fashion. I can edit, jump, delete, search, replace, copy and paste - oh, and I can exit. I’ve spent so much time using vi, that my brain doesn’t even have to think about exiting, not even whether I want to write or not. It just happens like second nature. It’s actually gotten to where nano seems unduly burdensome to me.

But really, I prefer an IDE for programming. CLI editors will always be for configuration files and shell scripts to me.

I just moved to lemmy.zip from dbzer0 and before that, world, mainly because I want to be the one blocking, I don’t want my instance to block for me. I must not be subscribed to the right places, because I just don’t see a whole lot of CCP/RUS apologia? I’m pretty good at passing over shit I know I won’t agree with though, so it might just not be registering.
