Probably around the same time I managed to find a used 386 for sale cheaply, and I bought it. I could play some of the early greats such as Dune 2, Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island, while others were playing CD ROM games such as Red Alert.

But I didn’t care because I was still having fun, and lack of too many distractions allowed me to dive deeply into the fundamentals. When they moved on to the next cool game, I taught myself turbo Pascal and played with the serial ports and an old AT modem.

A few years later I got myself a 166MHz (MMX!) and got properly online (IRC, ICQ, etc) along with the rest and they had a hard time understanding how I was immediately so much better at understanding “their” stuff from the start than they ever would be.

I still use a wallet when I’m travelling, as that’s the only time when I actually need cash. Plus it also holds my passport, seamans books, vaccine booklet, and misc other useful stuff.

When I’m home-ish I only use a card holder. It has most of my cards (duh), and that’s it really.

The important bits remain to describe the wearer

I never raised any eyebrows at IPs like these in movies and on TV. It’s just internet equivalent of fictitious phone numbers always containing 555.

I hear Sisyphus is looking to train his replacement. In fact, he says it’s a pretty cushy job, as there’s no need to pick things up, and definitely no putting them down

Depends on the skillset in question.

On one hand I work with IT/Clusters and robotics for the geophysical exploration sector. 20 years, probably. Beyond that and it gets dubious apart from this one system that actually runs on MS-DOS to this day (because MS-DOS is surprisingly good at realtime stuff if you want it to do something very simple).

On the other hand I do a lot of digital I/O and automation which would probably be very useful in the 60s, maybe even before if I manage to join the pioneers.

On top of that, I grew up on a dairy farm, and learned a lot of that trade from my dad. I can milk a cow by hand, so if that was all I needed to do, I could go back all the way to Mesopotamia.

I’ve used this a lot in the past at work. I see now that it’s discontinued, but I’m sure they have a new thing in its place. tiny, easy to use, and a huge time saver.

I guess he’s tired of superheroes, sequels, prequels, spinoffs, and reboots. Just like the rest of us.

Been doing it for almost 30 years. I still have better and more precise hearing than most.

However

Most people in the “headphones bad”-crowd fail to understand that it’s the volume and not the medium at fault. I’ve always been very afraid of permanent damage to my senses, ears and eyes in particular, so as much as I love head banging to loud music, I ensure it’s not too loud. I’m the kind of person who brings earplugs to a concert (the type that dampens the audio without distorting it). I rarely need them, but I keep them with me just in case.

The fact that I have no idea who she is tells me I must’ve made some right choices along the way.
The fact that I’ve been aware of Nick Fuentes since 2019 tells me they weren’t all the right choices.

Cheers. I’ve set up a download mirror, details posted in my root-level comment to this post.

Because I loved this game back in the day, and because the download site was having issues earlier today, I decided to set up a download mirror: HTTP or Torrent

I can try to set up a mirror. Can you provide a link to the official site?

Choose a side, and be sure to evaluate whether that side is based on culture, ideology, something else, because those three may not necessarily be the same.

For example, imagine a scenario where the US ended up in a war against russia over a conflict against NATO allies. One could easily imagine that Russians in Europe or the US landing on both sides of the conflict, depending on whether they are pro Putin or not.

As for china, I can imagine a similar scenario where ethnically Chinese people may be on the US side on the basis that they’re against CCP and/or Xi. Sadly, due to how the US treated people who looked foreign during past conflicts, choosing the US side may not necessarily mean that you’re safe.
