A Fantasy Role Playing Game About Life (pdf manual link) https://t.co/mOqCwsV3cl https://t.co/WhokfdRFch

@tobermatt oo! If tenable, can I see sample pics of the pages? curious how they worked the code into the "story"

Here's a PDF of the included 12 page magazine, "Activision's Modern Computer People - The Magazine for the Next Generation" https://t.co/vMJXwCSful

@pomeranian99 There's a PEZ museum in Burlingame, CA which is fun https://t.co/w3HYWJ70VF

@textfiles @jack did something happen, or am I stuck playing the Twitter game again? https://t.co/magPerqjUT

there is a soundtrack to this, the weird genderswapped (and dog-to-catswapped) NES version of the game (by SquareSoft!) https://t.co/ByPixWP0de

@ID_AA_Carmack @scottwasson Introversion kinda did this with Scanner Sombre https://t.co/zOfsXQyNKs

@scottwasson I thought this was an indie game screenshot

@textfiles can you think of any good examples of games like this that'd be appropriate for a 10 year old in terms of difficulty?

@textfiles yes, but I'd also state this is like the evolution of 2D platformers into 3D "platformers". Lots of wildly divergent destinations from that inflection point, some good, some.. not so good.

@wilshipley Phew thank goodness, all this uninterrupted, relaxing sleep sure was getting tedious

@MilanGriffes https://t.co/Yy9phqZTmX

@textfiles yeah, for sure, I guess I wasn't mentally connecting pure text stuff with Myst and the whole CD multimedia "revolution".

@textfiles are you generally a fan of puzzle games like that (Myst etc)?

@ID_AA_Carmack what's your favorite obscure Doom port so far?

@chx yeah Hades is a special beast. Bummer that it's been kind of quirky support-wise over time as the years go by. Ghost Canyon is awesome for what it is, but I want strong GPU + vesa mountable..

@chx hmm yeah I need a bit more GPU power than this, I want something in the ballpark of Hades Canyon where 1080p on high (but not very high) is around 50+fps

@chx what are benchmarks for "AMD® Radeon™ Vega 8 Graphics"? Let me search.. not familiar

@chx the intel update assistant says everything is 100% up to date, per the last time I looked. But I like the idea of disabling this just in case. I may just get rid of these and switch everything (all 3!) to Phantom Canyon when that comes out in 2021 https://t.co/wcSiRkeVgD

@chx unfortunately the only update I can find *requires* a thunderbolt device attached to work! Maybe I can disable thunderbolt in the BIOS instead?

Cult documentaries seem especially timely https://t.co/8qXbTxx5tH

@rory_blyth Happy birthday!! 🎂

@textfiles Bing is the same way, in that we all collectively pretend Google Search isn't a monopoly

@chetfaliszek Loved this game!

@chx I can do that!

@cm_richards hmm, I dunno about that.. gonna need a citation. Micro USB is REAL bad for durability. plus directional 🤢

@cm_richards oh interesting, you're seeing the connector degrade over time with heavy use? I've definitely never seen lightning ports have problems in this regard, and our kids have *heavily* used ipads

@textfiles one thing I learned recently that kinda blew my mind is that *apparently* the fog juice required to run fog machines, and clearglide lube, are .. basically the same thing?

@donw yeah it's kind of a conundrum. I guess near term, we should expect lightning to stick around in new products for at least the next 2-3 years?

also, it appears this same user has pointed their prodigious analysis skills at.. whisky! 🍸👏 https://t.co/5MSf2FsLUy

@Gramma_Barbie chaotic evil!!

@jturmel an excellent point! that does seem to preclude complete removal (all wireless)..

@mathowie and you know all the secret stuff and places too? There is a TON of lore here. @seesharp is expert on it!

@mathowie for the same reasons? Exporting blue voters to red states isn't a bad thing in my book..

@skrenta it's magnesium, uses the standard battery type, and REALLY nice! Treat yo' self Rich!!😍

@subdigital I don't any more! I went to a required Google Form (only 3 fields, pretty easy to fill out), which was much much better.

@itsterry @lwberry I have. Dozens of them! It typically works just fine. *Definitely* not on this particular box though..

@tylerlwsmith @Carnage4Life I know, I just felt someone had to make the joke. It is good and true advice, but I've also noticed it being used "against" me on random customer support calls. "Oh, your internet is down. That must be frustrating!"

@Carnage4Life so we should listen and repeat their points back to them, then wait to see if anything needs to be clarified?

@craniac this isn't a built PC, this is a commercial one, so it's the opposite of what you're advocating!

@chx no -- USB keyboard, USB mouse, USB webcam.. that's it. And HDMI monitor.

@ayourtch I kinda fell out of that habit, I need to start again!

I tried a few more things.. kinda gave up and turned on hibernate mode, then switched the power button and power menu option from "sleep" to "hibernate". That does work but I can only wake with power switch now. Eh. Good enough.

@ruwonderfulbear @ca_heckler it's a good idea; the only peripherals attached are usb keyboard, usb mouse, usb webcam. And hdmi monitor of course

Every keychain should be Tamagotchi https://t.co/8Zyi8jZYsF

@Carnage4Life when I spoke at Twitter's yearly meetup (Jan?) I specifically complimented them on the product velocity which has been SOOO much better. I invited them to give *themselves* applause. It's true. Way way better. 👍

@sarahjeong they had me at "begging for dark meat to enter the chicken sandwich wars." 🤤

@canyousteve I have been clearing event logs, sleeping, then "waking" (which forces a reboot) and checking event logs again but it's hard to tell.. not exactly sure what to look for.

@cumpsd unlikely, it's super stable when gaming etc. There's something hinky going on in the wake up process, probably driver related..

@lwberry every other system I have sleeps flawlessly and has for yeeeaaarrrsss

@sea_local @sarhanis @paulg more like bet on the centaur

OK closing this up, thank you again for your generosity! Winner will be picked soon! 🏆

I'm not saying this is in any way practical as an "exploit" in real life, more of a lab experiment

@kevindente only 15% of the time machine crashed? count yourself lucky

@textfiles this warning is significant coming from a guy who works daily with floppy drives, not exactly the most reliable medium in the world!

@patrickc I think there's a huge difference between "words hosted on our platform" and "links to words hosted elsewhere"

@patrickc Were the posts native content to nextdoor, linkedin, etc or were they presented as hyperlinks to his own blog?

@patrickc Have him start a blog and post them there, which he could do in ~10 minutes. What's stopping him from doing so?

@ftrain we're gonna need more painkillers

Only 9 entrants so far, your odds are looking pretty good.. 👆

@paulg ah, I see, that makes more sense

@mathowie oh my god I had forgotten about this brand

very happy to see progress in this area https://t.co/0obSENHHkP

@sarhanis @paulg well, for example, you'd do some basic vetting for "do these people seem to have their act together, can they tell a coherent story, do they show evidence of talent, etc".. it's more about the people being tenacious go-getters than the particulars of the idea

@paulg I find the whole "we, the learned cognoscenti, shall vet your idea and see if it is deemed worthwhile" concept kind of ridiculous

@paulg why bother? just fund everything credible, assuming the founders *seem* credible, and see what happens.

@seesharp why? did my two factor auth get invalidated?

@Beschizza I got no sympathy for Gawker. Closest analog is trying to bring British style tabloid press to the USA. If the show is good, they'll sell it elsewhere. If not, then who cares?

@jefposk @pomeranian99 ah yes that must be why. I do pi-hole (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, see https://t.co/bWdlsDYc1k) and uBlock

@pomeranian99 I only see it in the app, never on the web, for some reason. But it is new -- they "protected" blue check people (or at least me) from ads for a loooooooong time?
