I think they decided on an opt in feature.

I think Mastodon changed their mind about it due to user feedback, and “Quote Posts” is on the current Mastodon roadmap. Not sure when it will be added - maybe sometime in 2025?

Yes but can you run Doom on a dead badger

Hey, about out to an interactive fiction dude/dudette!

I programmed in TADS many years ago, but I want to learn and use inform, because I want a Z-code game like my timeless heroes at Infocom.

Like that paint that they use on highways that needs to be reapplied every so often because it disappears

Well, it doesn’t just disappear. Microplastics. Highways are doubly bad for plastic waste.

Hi there. I just installed Kubuntu on a spare machine, but I ran into a problem with the snaps. How would one “de-snap” it? Can you point me in the right direction?

Wait, those are man-boobs, aren’t they

The “starter packs” of Bsky is good, too. (Maybe that’s your ‘add lists’ though.)

Can you? I thought you could in theory, but it was all one server, theirs.

Well, I was something like 13, and I remember it on TV. I lived in a rural area, where we got about 6 channels on an antenna tower. I watched what they watched.

Hello! I played D&D first in nineteen-eighty-fucking-one and lived through the Satanic Panic. Have you seen Tom Hanks in his first big acting role? My parents sat me down in front of that. But I’m still playing D&D in a campaign right now, and my son plays as well. Aha, take that Satanic Panic!

It’s the same shit every decade. They just need something to blame violence on, because surely it can’t be gun culture.

So, the solution to CEOs is more violent video games?

In other news, I just tried Kubuntu in an older laptop a few weeks ago, and I’m pleasantly surprised. Superior to Windows in almost every way.

I don’t think it’s “ready for Grandma” yet, but pretty darn close.

Sad trombone noise.

I got Grotto based on your suggestion. Played it a bit yesterday. Interesting game! I’ve definitely gotten my $1.29 out of it already.

And later, Emerald Mine on the Amiga. So many hours of my life, gone.

Grim Fandango is an amazing story about life and death and love…

… Built upon an engine where the protagonist walks around at sloth speed. Manny Calavaras just sashays along, and there’s no way to speed his ass up. I wish you could hit escape or something to skip him walking in and out of scenes, but nope! I’m forced to watch him drag his feet from location to location.

But the most touching parts of the story stick with me after 20 years.

I should have made the obligatory link to http://mastodon-near.me/

Yes! I’m on a local regional server that is nice. I like that it’s locally owned and operated, and we can talk local news and events.

Holy crap it’s a full-page ad!
