So I've got a friend who wants to go ghost hunting and I'm looking at buying holy water on ebay but I kind of think I could just make my own (if I got ordained online) so.........

@scribus I don't know about other denominations, but in catholic churches you can just walk in with a bottle of water and ask for it to be blessed. Grandmothers do that all the time.
-
@nerthos I have considered that route. Or still buying it off of eBay because that just strikes me as funny for some damn reason.

Like god, I'm sure some of you wonder if I'm still here. I am! I even fix this thing when it falls apart still.

I wonder what cavemen memes were like

@nerthos Remember Captain Caveman ? I don't, I mostly remember how he shouted his name a lot. I think that prehistoric memes mostly were like that, mostly shouting at each other. I think this was also the first form of long range communication

@nerthos I was even looking into starting a Pleroma or Diaspora server before FOSTA/SESTA made that too much hassle.

@scribus That shouldn't be an issue at all, AFAIK that only concerns prostitution. And considering no one has closed down god damn switter yet...
You could host in some other country too.

Man, I seem to have mislaid half a dozen NES cartridges.... !vgp

@scribus Tragic! Very tragic. That's one of my favorite NES games. It's so good that I have it twice! The one with Mike Tyson and the other with Mr Dream. Only Road Fighter is slightly above that but more for nostalgic reasons than for its gameplay (because it is very flawed). I played it on a clone Famicom at my grandparent's when I was young.

@adiwan I'm hoping, because the 6 lost games are alphabetically close(ish), that they're just in a box from the last time I moved, but I don't know where the box would be. Never heard of Road Fighter.

@ceruleanspark Thoughts on fallout 76?
Friday, 30-Nov-18 01:19:33 UTC from web-
@nerthos There are AI enemies, just no NPC humans. It's kind of a man vs. nature sort of thing in that every AI that you DO encounter is usually a wild animal (or a busted robot). There's the usual stuff, there are feral ghouls, super mutants, robots, deathclaws, mole rats, etc. etc., but then there's also some new ones. Scorched are ghouls that are in between feralism and still having some semblance of brain activity, so they don't communicate verbally but they can use guns. Mole Miners hang out in the coal mines and I THINK they're people that have gone mad? I'm not sure, the game's really ambiguous about what they actually are, and you can't see what's underneath their masks. Scorched Beasts are, uh, really buff dragons. The closest thing I've seen to an actual NPC is a supercomputer who reads poetry to you, and I want to put her AI into a synth body and marry her.

After years of running this place, I thought I’d seen every way a Linux machine could collapse, but once again, my work has shown me another level of “how did this even happen”. I have a machine at work which is suddenly incapable of any function involving cryptography, including but not limited to: allowing SSH access and serving pages over HTTPS
Thursday, 15-Nov-18 23:35:44 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Is it maybe a hardware failure, like the specific dedicated core burned out on the machine?

Remember when this place was popular enough for random mothers to threaten to sue me over it? Good times.

@scribus Yes you have stores like that. When it comes to big furniture (couches) you'll have to wait for that because it has to be manufactured on demand. That can take from 6 to 12 weeks.

@adiwan Germany has no existing stock of couches? They've all gotta be made to order?

@ceruleanspark It depends on the store. Some have a little bit of stock (or the stuff on the show floor). But mostly it is made on demand.

Not sure if any of you have tried Dragalia Lost yet. Quite fun if you're into mobile games, it's basically Fate: Grand Order but with actual gameplay and passable dialogues you don't want to skip.

Apparently they're gonna be writing Apu out of The Simpsons starting this season. I know that these days he's sort of a controversial character and a lot of people don't like him, and I'm not really one to complain about PC culture, but Apu's character goes beyond his ethnicity, and I think the people who called for his removal ignored that. With that being said, I’m not going to pretend this is a tragedy. Ultimately, whatever they choose to do with the character on The Simpsons is up to them. Apu's been out of focus for several years now, so I can't say that his absence would be a huge deal, because that would be disingenuous. The Simpsons is also a much different show now than it was thirty years ago. Almost none of the original writers are still on the show, and a few of them are even younger than the show itself. If their vision of the show doesn't include Apu, I can't really fault them.

@mrmattimation Didn't Fox discredit the rumor of Apu being removed?
