I don’t see Out of Space on here. It’s pretty fun and challenging.
Goat Simulator is silly fun, especially with kids.
Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris is awesome since it lets you play up to 4 player co-op.
Vicious Attack Llama Apocalypse is a good co-op twin stick shooter.
We knew that if you pressed the satellite button and channel up/down, it let you manually move the dish, and it didn’t care how long you did it. There were also numbers to indicate the position of the dish. The rest was just sheer determination.
Had C-band satellite as a teen. All the good channels locked. But if the satellite Spacenet 1 transponder 18 was locked, you could “fine tune” the reception from say, Galaxy 3 transponder 18 by holding the step up or down button, and manually swing the dish halfway across the sky to the same position where Spacenet 1 is. As the descrambler thinks you are watching a different satellite altogether, there is no more lock. And since you never actually visited a bad channel, no way to tell with history or last buttons.
Windows on Linux though. Guy probably has Wine in his cup holder.
His dog told him to do it, so you can’t really blame him, right?
Eats them like cherry tomatoes
They missed the easiest, cheapest and most effective solution: working from home. We wouldn’t need half of what we’ve built already if we put an end to the commute for office workers. We might even make our Paris Accord targets that way too.
Yeah, I’d love that. I think a good number of subs I end up downloading are written by some dude trying their best, and if they don’t know the language, they can’t really begin to guess how to spell the words. But anything released by a studio or on a streaming site has no excuse.
True, and it even tracks with the lack of success for Joan Rivers’ talk show career.
I’m so deaf I could sit in a room full of large, sweaty men slurping chicken off drumsticks while making open-mouthed, gruntled dad noises with every gasping breath, and it wouldn’t bother me in the slightest. Well, other than such a room existing, that is.
In Soviet Russia, penny pinch you!
Anyone who turns 4 by December 31st is eligible for kindergarten. Been that way for a long time.
Does your PC have an Intel or AMD CPU? Congrats, you don’t have to worry about Recall. At least for now, it only works on Copilot+ PCs with ARM processors.
TIL the title of this article is similarly misleading. He didn’t spend 18 years on the crapper either.
Not so much as a shred of shenanigans.
Some say that forklift is still running today.
Ooh, I remember playing Monster Maze and Math Hurdler on a dual-sided cassette. Avenger (basically Space Invaders) on cartridge. Also typed in Killer Comet and Tank vs UFO from a magazine. Last one was probably the best of the lot.
Huh. I always wondered what happened to the guy who played Sock from Reaper.
Typically when you are moving debt to a credit card, you are not making a purchase, but are withdrawing cash from the credit account to pay for the LOC. A cash advance usually means you are paying interest on the amount withdrawn immediately at super high credit card rates. There is usually no grace period given for cash advances. IIRC, the cash balance is tracked separately from your regular card balance, and payments first go to paying off the normal monthly balance, and when that hits zero, they go towards the cash advance balance. That keeps you paying high interest for longer if you can’t pay it off in full. You’d have to read your terms of service to confirm how your card handles this. Be careful to make sure you understand your terms.
There are frequently special balance transfer offerings issued by card companies that allow you to transfer your credit balance from one card to another for a fixed initial cost (3% of balance seems normal now), and then you get up to 12 months at 0% interest. That can be a pretty good deal, but you would have to confirm if you could do a cash advance on one card, then balance transfer to a second one using a promotional offer and make sure the second card doesn’t still treat it as a cash advance balance, which would likely be subject to immediate high interest rates. This is probably the most likely scenario. However, if you can confirm they treat the transferred balance as normal, it would end up being cheaper than a year at LOC interest. Then you pay it off in full with the LOC and repeat, assuming you get another offer. I think it is more likely banks will look out for each other and that won’t work for cash advance credit card debt, but hey, maybe there are banks that just want your business and only a little cash instead of a lot.
A kitchen sink. Did an impromptu kitchen reno due to a gas leak and being without one is such a huge downgrade in quality of life. I was washing dishes in the bathtub nightly and it was absolutely miserable. I don’t think I’ve ever been more appreciative of the technology of modern plumbing than the day I was able to rerun lines to the sink area and get it all going.
