Remembering a past when I was still able to imagine futures

@kite@tech.lgbt once cannibalized an old 360 controller with worn-out thumbsticks to replace the busted button membrane on a newer one

so i guess "find an old nonworking controller and harvest its membrane" is an option

Now, what I'm really looking for is *high-resolution* scans of the old Colossal Cave maps described in this paper:

The 1845 Stephen Bishop map is here: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fil

(I realize that modern maps are super-high-density and may not be available for download! But the historic ones must be somewhere.)

Please stop using “mom” as an example of an unsophisticated user of technology. This reinforces harmful stereotypes.

Instead, I suggest using “congressperson”.

To kill a French vampire, you need to drive a baguette through their heart. That might sound easy, but I assure you, it's painstaking.

@Aether and there they go.

it is RIDICULOUS what kind of air this derg is getting. dude come get the ruler check this out.

yeah, they're not coming back.

@esdin @mcc like NFT bros legitimately seem to think that "ownership" confers some kind of magic power over the thing owned

as if they could walk up to a junkyard with a pink slip for a lambo in hand, accept the car as a crushed cube of metal, and then drive off in it

or take a leisurely drive from the busy streets of Los Angeles all the way to the beaches of Oahu straight across the Pacific Ocean

"the pink slip says I own it; that means I can do anything I want with it!"
