I had no idea you could rearrange those! I wonder what else you can rearrange.

I am holding the 2021 "Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda", a green and gold handheld game with a full color LCD screen showing the Legend of Zelda title sequence.

Happy Birthday Link, The Legend of Zelda is 40 years old today. I was 6.

A bit disappointing that Nintendo hasn't done anything to celebrate, I guess?

Usually the hotel would be pleased to sell you the required proprietary cable.

I sincerely hope that this video, or the message that it conveys, reaches enough of the people that it needs to reach.

β€œWe just don’t know” has been a regular punchline in our household for decades because of this.

I am not the only one!!

My husband regularly makes fun of me for admitting this.

Why do officers of the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency need to be armed with lethal weapons?

Serious question.

@ashens.bsky.social Good morning. Merry Christmas. All these years, still excellent.

I never did that in the 8-bit era, but I certainly did that once I got my Amiga.

Not super proud of it these days, but it was fun at the time. Almost like a social club.

It's remarkably how quickly stuff like that used to spread before the era of the internet. Even downloading stuff from bulletin boards wasn't that common.

The Infinite Monkey Cage was genuinely one of the best things the BBC produced, and if it continues without Robin, it will be infinitely poorer for it.

I can't overstate how much respect I have for @robinince.bsky.social for standing up for human rights, for equality, and for kindness.

Probably even "talking on the phone" is as effective, which is why Putin calls him up the day after every meeting with Zelenskyy. He can only hold "the last thing I was told" in his head, which probably explains a lot of his imaginary boogeymen - they come from social media and TV.

Nice piece of history but oh man I hate that keyboard so much.

Trump's threats are empty, designed to scare the BBC into compliance. If the BBC does comply, I will be exceptionally disappointed.

While a theoretical path exists for the US President acting as an individual to sue the BBC, the legal doctrines of foreign sovereign immunity and the First Amendment's high protections for speech about public officials make such a lawsuit exceptionally difficult to win.

It is funny, but I'm not sure what else you expect them to do. Rebroadcast Sky News for a while?

It's actually fine. Sony Betacam SP decks use the same concept when fast searching, or for long-duration pause, of reducing the tension but keeping it *just* floating over the heads. Virtually no wear.

I think mine is a little newer than yours. Only single deck, but it does have Dolby S and it still works great, although I have had to replace the belts and a couple of capacitors.

Yesterday was the first baseball game I'd ever watched in my life. So I've been watching baseball for 2 days and I already hate the Dodgers.
