Cool, thanks :-)

Do you know if Retroarch has controller support?

It is a lisp, albeit on purpose … to further confuse things in parts of Spain with different languages the shared words don’t necessarily have that lisp!

Best thing would be to go to a Spanish speaking country for a holiday, once you’ve been forced to use it on strangers you’ll loose your language anxiety and it gets much easier (I live in Spain and work in Spanish, I’m not very good, but also no longer worried about muddling through).

When was that? Last time I tried it was a couple of years ago.

As for the difference, outside of Spain the conjugation of Vosotros (you, plural) isn’t used, but speaking to strangers is much more formal. Also, there’s a lot of vocabulary differences which can be confusing for non-native speakers.

Good luck with your learning, it’s a great language :-)

Last time I looked it still did a weird mix of American and European Spanish, too

OK, I’ll go all-in on this:

2000 AD Comics’ Nexus, The computer game.

Made for the Commodore C128 computer (which oddly ran Microsoft Basic), it was a simple single-screen platform shooter with the twist that you could pile up the bodies of your enemies and use them as platforms.

What is this a computer for ants? It should be at least … four times bigger.

That’s what we call an attention getter!

Fair enough, it just outdoes any dissonance between T1 and T2 by a factor of 10, hence being curious about your thoughts ;-)

I loved the original, when I had only seen the TV cut which doesn’t include the protagonist committing rape. I’ve seen the full version all of once and that just broke it for me.

I have the sequel on my to-watch list, but will be starting it off in a guarded manner.

How do you feel about Tenet?

I use a basic analog watch because I want to be able to tell the time with something that is always on my person.

If I understand correctly, smart watches require charging, data connection to a phone, are physically large, and they use displays which are sensitive to impacts.

That would be logical. On Liftoff I cannot​ see most domains, or long usernames.

I believe they were referring to sh.itjust.works, an instance with an unfortunate quantity of low quality memes.

This is the logical answer.

Can’t go wrong with Linux Mint. It works pretty much like Windows so there’s little relearning needed.

Well, last time I installed it it was easier than Windows. I put it on my Dad’s computer and it just works with his printer etc.

A suitable metaphor for this would be saying that you didn’t enjoy having to start a Model T Ford with a hand crank so you’ve refused to drive a car ever since. Reminds my of my Grandfather.

That is a most excellent pun. Thank you.
