  • So is it a priori illegal in the UK to walk around on public sidewalks wearing a Guy Fawkes mask?

    Time to recreate that crowd scene in VfV ...

    "Oh, me officer? I'm on my way to a masquerade ball. It happens every day, runs 24 hours."

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

  • 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.

  • Bwahah, yeah right he introduced her as being on the legal defense team on camera at at least one press conference.

  • So that's what inspired Giger's Alien mouth-in-mouth horror then? Yikes.

  • WTF America. Don't you have some sort of neutral House Constable with powers to kick out these idiots in cases like this? How can they just ignore official results without consequence?

    It sounds like there needs to be a bottom-to-top reform of the law where every 'norm' that used to be assumed, gets new enforceable law to back it up.

  • What dream? A domain's quite practical for self-hosting one's own server for all sorts of things. Doesn't have to be the "next big thing". This is the way the internet used to be.

  • Got Steam with Proton going on my Devuan laptop a few weeks ago, and very impressed with how many games work. I might just get a Deck, after trying out a friend's.

    I think M$ needs to be very afraid -- probably why they bought Activision and are trying to dig their way deeper into the gaming ecosystem.

  • Our neighbours across the road let their dogs roam; one has nipped at a neighbour's visitor; they occasionally get out as a pack and topple garbages down our street. One of them poops on our lawn at night. They had a year-long ban on getting any more dogs and some taken away, but that's expired. They've taken to letting cats (in)breed this past year, three litters in the past year. One kitten got run over last week, since they're all allowed to roam free and obviously are foraging for food.

    The owners are totally negligent and we wish they would get a perma-ban from Animal Services... or at least required to gate and fence properly.

  • 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).

  • You're implying I have made a series of promotions spamming the fediverse -- I have not. Twice max, I think. I am merely a rando who found out about by accident around the same time as this story, and it looked kinda cool. Honestly haven't launched it since taking one or two peeks since.

    Is there some reason for the antipathy I am not aware of? I admit to liking Louis' channel and his fight for right-to-repair...

  • It should be pointed out this was from Feb 2023, so not 'news'... however still worth highlighting how dangerous Russian windows appear to be, especially to those who are not performing in the "special operation" to Putin's liking.

  • Now if you'd coloured those lucifer yellow it would have been a top-tier chemistry meme too! (Maybe, IANAC).

  • So sad that Space-X, which has done such incredible things to advance spaceflight, is run by this idiot. It's a testament to the intelligence and hard work of the engineers and scientists working there, despite him, I suppose.
