Humphreys posted:It's retro kinda I think. But The 90s had some interesting mashups of club baselines mixed with random other styles of music. Found a few tapes that my parents used to listen to (most likely high as gently caress) and loving them. drat they are just soo soothing to have as background music.

SniperWoreConverse posted:hey i'm cross posting from the morrowind thread in games maybe someone will know what i'm talking about : So I don’t know the exact model but yeah that’s a thing! Sounds like an old terminal or scientific system of some type. You’re probably looking for a 60s to 80s model of some description, sounds like it used an AT connector for the keyboard maybe.

I can’t tell if you’re trying to own me or not. @Cojawfee: I’ve seen the same thing happen on Escape to the Country. The thing is that the show mixes up its formula enough to keep things fresh even in the rote episodes. People frequently end up in properties nothing like what they said they wanted at the beginning and loving them.

They had Intel Core Solo CPUs running at somewhere between 1 and 1.3 Ghz. They were basically updated Pentium 3 chips and most of them had some kind of micro drive for storage.

I was directing that message most specifically at LifeSunDeath, who had identified with the name "abler enstin"; abler seemed masculine to me, though I'm sure it could have adequate nonbinary use, and I acted and wrote thoughtlessly with my comment. Mx. is sincere but it’s not gender neutral, it’s specifically for non-binary folks. I would have gone Mr/Ms/Mx nerd in your case. e: it was a great cool post otherwise!

Toast Museum posted:I'm not sure about that. OED's earliest use of it (1977) explicitly suggests it as a gender-neutral honorific, and that's how it's currently used by the government agencies and businesses that have adopted it. Mx doesn't appear to be any more exclusively nonbinary than the singular they. Huh, I'll have to look into that. Thanks!

3D Megadoodoo posted:Literally everything we throw away that isn't, like, compostable, will be considered an artifact within our lifetimes. Or would if we didn't throw it out. my RPG book collection has reached the point where i'm gonna need an insurance rider for it, a great portion of which are books which have just increased in price x10 over the last 20 years tbh, i honestly don't give a poo poo about how much it's worth. i know what the most expensive single book in it is and I pull it out sometimes to go "hey, look what this cool thing I've got is" but that's because it's genuinely cool, not because it's got a misprinted spine or something. i'm only insuring it because i'd be up poo poo creek to replace the collection if something bad happened. I collect the books to use, not to depreciate. I see guys with stuff in plastic baggies or whatever and it's just jackoff bullshit. Arivia has a new favorite as of 10:13 on Aug 29, 2021 |

Der Kyhe posted:For the comparison, the first law in Finland, which made software or media piracy an actual crime was put into effect 01.01.2006. Before that making and distributing copies wasn't illegal, unless you were stupid enough to say that it was legit copy and were selling it, or you were using unlicensed software for commercial purposes. Yeah it’s still not even a crime (non-commercial copying) in Canada, even our Conservatives passed a law that was just enough to get the US off our backs and that was it.
