  • Console version of dungeon crawl stone soup

  • Autumn is always Diablo-season in my family. We'll play a modded Diablo 1 or 2 together. It's tradition!

  • What do you mean? That's the same layout as the SNES controller, & it's what most of the retro handhelds use.

    Also, it's running Linux so it's easy to remap the buttons to a custom layout if desired.

  • Oh, it looked Ok in my app (Voyager). But I added the line break.

  • Depending on the car you might be able to physically disable telemetry. Here are some thoughts/ideas I've been collecting:

    • Hit "SOS" button and opt-out of all services through customer service. This of course requires trusting the company to actually do it.
      • It's possible that the info could be stored locally and then uploaded when it gets serviced though
    • Remove the fuse to the modem/data communication module (DCM)
    • Disconnect wiring to the LTE antennas
    • A number of people have mentioned that they can get the dealer to disconnect the telemetry as a precondition to buying. For instance, here.
    • Jump the data communication module (DCM) cable with a ~$70 dongle to bypass just the telematics components
    • Disconnect the DCM cable, which will likely gimp the infotainment if not other systems, or remove the entire DCM unit
  • The part you remember was not about eating the animal due to hunger. He was observing that when he was away from "civilization" for long enough he noticed that he started to think in a more primal way. In that case, it was tearing a squirrel to shreds raw with his teeth! (or something) :)

  • Looked up "cromulent" in the dictionary. Wasn't disappointed!!

  • He didn't write "like it's life or death"! Most of the book are meditations on nature and descriptions of landscape. If that's what you came away with then you missed the point.

  • The chances of a deal are said to be weeks away, if not non-existent.

    What kind of non-sentence is that?

  • Read Walden by Thoreau

  • Perhaps so. I'm in the US where lingo goes that "Democrats" & "Liberals" are "left", " Republicans" & "Conservatives" are "right".

    Not sure how that translates globally, so apologies if it's confusing...

  • Lol!!!! No, no, no!! My centrism is not arbitrary!! I don't try to find a "middle ground" where waterfalls go both ways!!! Love the visual though!

    I align with the political right on some issues, and the left with others. And in American politics I find the rhetoric & tribalism of both political parties ridiculous - so I can't identify with either.

    Generally I lean left of center, but I can't go "full left" because I think the left has some blind spots. And liberals do this annoying thing where they seem to be always be falling all over themselves to prove how self-righteous & progressive they are, & they wind up alienating left-leaning people like me as a result.

  • There's no room for centrists on the internet. I seem to only find centrists in real life, face-to-face. I guess we aren't loud but we're here.

    (Now here come the downvotes....)
