They didn’t say scientists are the first target, they said scientists are usually the first target. Didn’t say that they were the first target in this case.

I’m assuming he threatened her as she was going into or coming out of the restroom.

Interesting. To be useful for me, they’d have to come with “unlit” versions, since I always add actual dynamic lights (flickering torches, etc) in Foundry VTT. With lamp light drawn on the floor, it would look silly since that won’t be visible from a distance - only when a PC’s light source shines on it, which makes no sense.

This sounds really promising. If I was into journalling games, I’d be all over this - even so, I’ll have a look.

“Lalaland” gets my vote, given that they have completely lost any sense of reality.

Hello there, fellow Internet old-timer!

For anyone who would happen to stuble across this in the future, let me add that I managed to find this which is specially designed for TTRPGs - but very expensive.

Absolutely not. Maybe in that country, but not in the rest of the civilized world.

I think you’re taking this a bit more seriously than it’s intended to be, but yeah, there have been Democrat presidents, but there still isn’t gun control, univseral healthcare (not even for children!), etc.

If the republicans win, it goes further right. If the democrats win, it stays where it is. So the only movement is to the right, never left.

Well, at least in our case, it wasn’t something that we bought. I’m pretty sure it came with our MS-DOS.

That was it, yes.

I figured it out - it was memmaker. It automatically edited autoexec.bat (and possibly also config.sys, I’m not sure).

That might have been one way of doing it, but I seem to remember a more mnemonic name - something like “memmaker,” perhaps?

Edit: Yep, it was memmaker.

I was talking to a friend just the other day about that. I remember some application we used to reconfigure autoexec.bat to optimize it for one type of memory or the other, but I can’t remember the name of the application (I think it came with the OS), and I can’t remember what the different memory types were called either.

I’m pretty sure Step 3 is “get out of here”.

Honest question: Isn’t cringe actually just second-hand embarassment? That is, isn’t cringe when you see someone else doing something embarassing?

I’m commenting on the headline, not the article. I’m allowed to do that.

It’s not alarmist: A second Trump term really is an extinction-level threat to democracy

No, it is not an extinction-level threat to democracy. We have plenty of democracy in the rest of the western world, thank you very much. A second Trump term would be a huge threat to US democracy though. But that’s not what this headline implies. Extinct means gone forever, from everywhere. That’s simply not the case. I’m tired of Americans forgetting that there’s a world outside their borders.
