@JoshuaACNewman Are dick pill scams still a thing? I don't remember seeing one in... ten years

Unfortunately I have to agree on the rest.

@mau Mi spiace, ma è ancora 404 per me

@mau occhio, quizzini/p681.html è un 404

@jgeorge @NanoRaptor I find surprisingly little info on the Internet about that. How old are these things?

@NanoRaptor I have seen subminiature connectors for space stuff that are not THAT different...

@danluu
Is it possible that the old FPSs you're thinking about are predominantly PC games? Whereas the big games of today are mostly console-based and controller-first.

Also, yeah, I'll admit it: we're not getting any younger...

@bert_hubert ....Geert Wilders is still around?

I really hate this '00s revival we're having

@amberxorluci "Applied metaphysician" is almost exactly what was written on the door of Fuyutsuki's office in Evangelion

@bert_hubert I can't follow you on that: I did Pascal in high school - now I know all the issues and it was already ancient by then, but Borland TP7 will always be an object of nostalgia for me.

(I don't think I ever saw a more noob-friendly programming environment before the Arduino IDE)

@bert_hubert Once a physicist, always a physicist...

@jschauma @SteveBellovin
Been there, in the late '90s, so already on the downslope.
It's the reason why I can't take seriously most of the takes about modern social media being uniquely bad for people: back then there was no "algorithm" and people behaved just the same.

@R_P_one @hmwilker How would the big aircraft dock to the ship?

@kwf FFT in a box

@bert_hubert I hadn't heard of someone getting slashdotted in a long time...

@kkarhan @foone Well, Rust is all about safety and strict rule-checking, so this would be at odds with the general philosophy. We know how often compiler warnings are (not) read

@jerry Way more than you wanted to know:

@djm I didn't think this was meant to be realistic, I thought there would be no way to win. It's an interesting way to try and explain the problems with moderation.

I groaned at the Top Mod joke though...

I didn't think you could win this thing: I assumed it was like Space Invaders, and it would get faster and faster until you invariably fail...
