…it’s okay; they do metric, too…

…oh, oh, there’s an RPG setting i read like this recently!..like magi-punk high fantasy mashed-up with the legions of hell and heaven allying with various nation-states in open industrial warfare…

(now it’s going to bug me until i can find it)

…quod erat demonstrandum…

…they read select verses which are spoon-fed their bible-study curriculum…

…christians are f*cking evil, full stop…

…nope; her education was 1980s DoDDS, mine was 1980s TEA…

(yes, secession; autocorrect squiggled it into another word as i was typing)

…just that, though: we were taught that emancipation was just one of many issues stemming from increasingly-fundamental differences in economic, social, and international policy, and that the war itself precipitated from the southern states asserting a right to secession and sovereignty which the federal government did not grant…

…we were also taught that the spark was actually southern states’ seizure of federal assets…

…likewise; my wife was apoplectic when i suggested that the civil war was about secession…

…i’m pretty sure the only difference between versions is the physical cartridge format; the software is identical and there are adaptors available for both platforms…

…i’ve always considered that a game gear title first, even though both formats were released nearly simultaneously…

…it’s far more durable, mostly…

…masonry wainscots look tacky-as-heck but they provide impact and moisture resistance where it’s needed most…

…i prefer corrugated arch structures, but rigid frames are popular for good reason…

…she’s an episcopalian bishop who led trump’s inaugural service, asking that he accept god’s humility and share his mercy with marginalised people who fear him, specifically naming genderqueer, immigrant, and refugee populations…

beep-beep-beep-beep! beep. beep.

…typity type-type…

…two-thirds a dram of scotch whisky…

…trinitrons are curved, just two-dimensionally…

…back in the CRT era i needed at least a 72Hz refresh rate to not feel any discomfort; that doesn’t exactly correlate with framerates on modern LCD displays but i think it’s a good proxy for the threshold of general perceptiblity…

…are greater framerates smoother?..sure, especially in my peripheral vision, but 72 FPS is generally good-enough beyond which returns start diminishing…

…is there a good version of pilotwings64 available anywhere other than native hardware?..
