I played the hell out of the shareware version, and begged my dad to get the full game , at which point I blazed through all the difficulties. It was the first game that I eventually 100%ed. I was psyched to get it and be able to play it on steam and was surprised how much I remembered.
Mostly for nostalgic reasons, it's one of my favorite games of all time.
Ditto on libraries. Mine does AWESOME large format printing for next to nothing. I got 5 different sewing patterns printed, which ended up being 20 or so pages of 48"x48" sheets in color and it cost about $30. Priced it at fedex and it was running well over $100 (I think closer to 200 or 300 but I didn't pay much attention after seeing how much it was at the libraries.
I have a small Canon b/w laserjet at home which has worked well for small projects but the libraries have been a huge help for anything outside standard letter size print jobs.
Wow. That is a beast. Definitely showcases some of the finer points of our weird language.
Agreed. It's a great game. I wish it had more variability in puzzles or solutions to give it more replay value. I got it right when it came out and still feel like it's too fresh in memory to go through it again.
I went there last year! It's absolutely gorgeous and totally worth the trip. We signed up for a private tour with a driver from Innsbruck and she was fantastic. Before our scheduled tour time, she walked us around the grounds, showed us some off-trail lookout points and we got amazing photos from it. It's definitely worth spending a day there, and plan on walking around the town after seeing the castle, and leave time to check out one of the local restaurants for pretzels or brats and beer.
Lemmy, meet my babies, George and Lucille
Lucille likes to sleep in very awkward positions
George thinks nobody notices when he slowly backs up and sits on my husband's lap.
Is that a great Dane pup? She's beautiful!
It's absurd and hilarious and I love it.
But is it just a stock Tacoma with big wheels or did they do more body mods to it? It looks way smaller than even older style trucks like the bed was shortened or something but that could just be an illusion due to the size of the wheels.
Had IUDs inserted twice in two different hospital systems in different states, but it was the same kind of awful both times.
Both times I was told to take ibuprofen beforehand, and that did absolutely nothing. But because it had been so bad the first time, with the second one I thought I'd be smart and took a vicodin I had from a prior procedure.
I still to lay in the room for 15 min after, trying not to vomit, and I nearly passed out. After , I walked to my car where I just sat there for 30 more min to rest. Even with vicodin it is the worst pain I have ever experienced in my life.
Not one ounce of sympathy or concern from anyone on staff.
It's nice there are new guidelines, but I feel like it's going to take more than that to make healthcare workers give a shit about this.
I would also recommend Pandora. I've had a family plan for years so I don't know for sure but there used to be a free (ad supported) tier that you could check out. And to reiterate comments from above, custom playlists and song/album play on demand is available (though some tracks are only available in discovery mode).
I love going to used music/movie stores. So much good stuff there that can't be edited or de-streamed out of existence.
Hi all! Can you help me diagnose my basil plant?
I just got one of those "grow your own" herb plants from the grocery so my expectations were pretty low, and it's already done way better than expected.
I originally thought it was pollen from it flowering but I only had the one flower left after trimming and this stuff is everywhere. I've always grown basil outside and this time thought I'd try putting it in a window box (with cilantro and rosemary in case that matters) but I've not seen this before.
Is this something to worry about? If so what's a good way to treat it?

ADP is showing this on all hr applications now- I've encountered it a few times and always hesitate before choosing. I don't want my resume to go even further down the vortex and feed an AI model but maybe opting out just eliminates you altogether from consideration.
Have you seen this before? How have you handled it?

If you like video game history you might enjoy this video from Vox. Quake's custom keyboard mapping settings (unique for the time) was a big development in gaming. One gamer's personal settings config became popular and ultimately established the WASD control scheme that has been basically the standard since.
