@hackaday I just bought a A1200 replica case when I wanted to build a wedge all-in-keyboard computer.
@anime In a later chapter, it talks about how her father was the one who introduced her to gaming, so there's one point in favor of "if you have kids, you can get them into gaming too."
@RobbieT @Johncdvorak I imagine someone might have done it to show a size comparison, then someone else inexperienced with firearms thought it was something else when putting it into the article.
@Johncdvorak It is actually in their article. https://www.vice.com/en/article/7k8yjx/el-chapos-son-ovidio-guzman-house-raid
@moh_kohn Well, it's not so much pouring oil on the fire, but because you're interacting with something, it assumes that other people who interact with those people will have other connections you would like to interact with. The tenor of the interaction matters less, the fact that you created content in response is the key. You ignore them, they assume it's useless to show you similar things. So, interact positively with things you like, don't interact with what you hate.
@anime Not yet, I'm only 14 episodes in, but it's definitely trying to get game nerds to talk to girls, which could lead to other things. It's a step in the direction.
The Kimi to Pico-Pico manga seems like another attempt to reverse the birth rate decline in Japan. Haha.
@retrotechtive I think one of those was the first bit of computer equipment i ever accidentally broke.
@retrotechtive Is that one of those terrible Apple II joysticks? That plug into a dip socket on the motherboard?
Isekai Walking is now up to 9 published episodes with 10 different translators, it's a meme to the point where the new translator called it out.
And really, "Toumei Otoko to Ningen Onna ~Sonouchi Fuufu ni Naru Futari~" is also a pretty cute manga. It's an interesting premise.
@stuff Food's better at Waffle house though. So far I haven't had any problems with fights at waffle houses in colorado or missouri. Though the door to one of them did pinch my son's finger when he wasn't careful. I did see that video of the fight in Austin though.
@kenshirriff I wonder how close this is to the IBM PALM processor design. "Put All Logic in Microcode"
re: 1-person mastodon instance moderation
@pro @b0rk I dabbled with the filtering a bit, was trying to make certain other instances not show up on the public timeline, but ultimately I just decided to make the public timeline private instead. So right now I don't have a block list at all. I imagine I'd just block individual users if they started to get annoying.
The "saving 80k coins in a different world for retirement" chapter 50 is kind of amusing. She fakes out the Russian diplomats by referring to the hero from USSR, then saying the hero from their world actually came from Ukraine in the USSR. Of course, there was no such hero to begin with.
@Zenra_Nukenin If they're going to do that, they should try the different difficulties at least a bit to say "I found Normal to be a bit too easy, while Hard was just right." Or "Normal was too easy, while Hard mode just turned the enemies into bullet sponges rather than increasing the challenge."
