Hercolobus Or Red Planet, by V. M. Rabolou… it’s ‘interesting’.

Are there any minor failures in your Tesla that you can claim warranty against? I wouldn’t begrudge anyone stuck with one now who bought in the past, but a sort of civil disobedience, aimed at costing the company as much as possible, would be an ethical imperative here. Claim any warranty repair you can. Be a ‘picky’ customer. Make support and sales spend extra effort and money in any way possible for your property. After all, you paid for it, make them spend as much money as possible.

Not quite on-topic, but since there are others responding here… has anyone experienced issues with the xbox 360 for PC wireless controller not passing its D-pad to games in WINE/Proton? For example, Skyrim. I cannot use the ‘favorites’ weapon selection as a result. The D-pad is seen in the Wine/Windows DX joystick diags so I’m stumped. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

What? Oh no, I had not written down the recipe for using gasoline to cook my spaghetti! Whatever shall I do?

Kill it all with fire

So they should switch to element.io, or host their own forum thingie on a VPS somewhere. Why is Discord essential? (Hint: it’s not)

Oh freddled gruntbuggly,

Greetings, Programs!

Ms. Frizzle is tired of schoolboard bullsh$t and budget cutbacks…

Ah :). Hmm, well someone else had a similar situation as you, perhaps xmms with those tweaks would work?

Really? Wow I haven’t tried… but there are lots of skins at least, here

Myth: The Fallen Lords could use a good successor using modern tech. But keep the mechanics and storyline essentials the same, it was amazing.

EDIT: And Thief: The Dark Project too. (Styx: Master of Shadows felt a bit like a spiritual successor, but not quite…)

QMMP is good enough for me on Linux, feels like basic WinAMP which is all I need.

Big-booTAY, TAY!!

I gotta admit those are pretty good. I’d be pretty scared of those potions! (Well except for chmod 777 of course, that’s useful when used responsibly).

Ladyhawke, Conan…

Oh yes, fruit! I should have included that of course. Some peaches or berries are so good with Muesli.

It’s great stirred into plain or vanilla yoghurt for breakfast. I think that’s in fact the “traditional European” way it’s eaten?

Or at least at nearly every Bed & Breakfast in western Canada that tries to be “Victorian” :)

I sincerely hope people are organizing to back this all up – datahoarders unite! These days it’s affordable to dedicate an 8TB disk to back up as much of these as possible… anyone have any tips on bulk-downloading the individual 78s from archive.org?

Edit: I found this tool, get archiving, people

Example:

ia download -a -i --format=“VBR MP3” --search collection:georgeblood

EDIT #2: I’ve submitted a patch adding options to specify start and end item indices, so one can more easily download parts of a collection and resume later – or coordinate with others so each can download non-overlapping parts of a huge collection, and put them together later. See this PR

Think about the ecological waste of these things going into the landfill when they could last 2-3x longer if they were just designed a bit better.
