I didn’t know it was a flop at release. It’s in my top 5 of all time, so I’m super biased. Absolute legend of a film.

does Doom count? Because my friends and I still play the game to this day, all the various community mods and maps.

I loved this at first but then the complexity of the various mechanics seemed to take a sharp rocket ship upwards through the roof. I got kind of lost and then tried to read the wiki guide and it was like a book, so that was that. I really wanted to like it though! Maybe I should give it another go.

Do you know what happened to it? Just curious.

Also the other instance I was using … vlemmy.net … has been down for like a week now. I wonder if it’s completely done for?

Huh, even if I open a private window and paste the url of this thread I can see it. Strange. I have a lot of sites lol. Mostly tech / gaming / science.

And yeah Newsblur is awesome! $3 a month, which is WAY cheaper than the competition, works great, doesn’t add stupid new features for no reason, etc etc etc. Overall a wonderful product. I use the native interface on web and then Reeder on mobile (one time purchase for the app).

Because I don’t want to type it all out, here’s a screenshot of my NewsBlur. I need more science / astronomy though!

It took me 4 different urologists to properly diagnose this. I had it for YEARS. Every single time it happened I thought I was going to die. The only thing I could do was lay down on a hard flat surface (usually the floor wherever I happened to be at that time) and just let it pass with lots of heavy breathing and silent crying. I basically was immobile, couldn’t even move without getting super light headed and felt like passing out.

Once I finally found a dr that properly diagnosed it, he taught me the open book trick and MY GOD what a difference. He is also the same one that did the surgery, and it’s been many years now without an instance. Life changing.

Torsion is seriously no joke.

I think the app is scraping?

Diamonds are rare and should be expensive. Laughable.

Pugs are not “so cute” because they’re ugly. They are deformed from countless generations of in-breeding and genetic manipulation by horrible horrible humans and are in constant pain, cannot breathe, and have countless other physical ailments. They should not exist in their current form and it makes me sad for the animal whenever I see one, and immediately lose all respect for the owner for furthering such a travesty.

Two big ones for me:
1- a local arcade. Spent so many summer days there with friends. TMNT, Street fighter, Mortal Kombat, etc etc etc.
2- laser quest! Lots of birthday parties there.
