🔥 This isn't "national defense." This is robbery.
And you're the mark.

The PC port of Mario Kart 64 is out

There's also already a functioning Dreamcast port

Reminder: The web you might miss of the 1990s or 20'00s is still out there!
So I feel no reason to miss it!

Its just that now these cottages lie within the shadow of corporate skyscrapers which dominate the skyline.

For all the vilification "the deep web" gets (not that there's a clear demarcation), I see most of the harm lying on the surface!

@TrueMasterCole @branman65 As someone who was actually around and aware of the gaming scene when the Dreamcast was around, I feel it has become the ultimate Overrated underrated console (the GameCube has also become a lesser version of this), because there really was not all that much excitement for the console back when it actually launched. As a game (ignoring the graphics) Sonic Adventure was considered massively inferior to something like Mario 64, Shenmue was overhyped and underdelivered, and while the console was considered to have plenty of good games, and brought some genuinely cool innovations (like Phantasy Star Online's online gameplay), it ultimately lacked that big System Seller which could have given it the necessary momentum to survive the PS2's arrival.

This universal Dreamcast Love we see today absolutely did not exist during 1998-2002. There's a reason it ended up with sub-Wii U sales.

@Zergling_man @vokainen099 Yeah. I have a firstname-lastname cock.li email with one of the few SFW domains they had. I've applied to jobs with it among other things and nobody ever batted a single eye, except for my Dad who told me to delete it and use Gmail instead.

Here is the basic implementation of the map zoom function. As you can see it saves your spot for the zoom, even when exiting and entering the map.
This is just with the current map image in the game. What I'll do is have a higher resolution image (200%) and swap it out with the lower resolution one whenever you zoom in. Just have to make that version. I have the higher resolution asset so it won't be an issue.
What do you think of the speed of the movement? Too slow? Too fast? Would you like to see it more zoomed in?
There will be prompts on the screen to tell you how to control the map, just haven't gotten to that yet.

Some people in #Iran successfully use delta with national email providers when outside Internet is cut.

#deltachat designs are #OfflineFirst using delay tolerant protocols. Messages are queued when a path is blocked. email servers are made for this and run at planetary scale.
Messages crossing the border may arrive three days later but they arrive.

Peoples can stay in private touch across time and space, to the extent possible in current breakdown times. Which is what delta is about.

"Al-Qaeda" actually doesn't exist, this is organization is run by intel agencies.

Watch out for false flag to kick start WWIII.

@deprecated_ii Corruption at all levels of government. The USDA and organizations like it exist to cause problems for small businesses, not enforce the law on big businesses

@beardalaxy Cock.li got hacked due to an exploit that was recently found in RoundCube (their webmail software). It's still usable through desktop mail clients though, but that service has gone through so many security breaches and legal trouble (mostly due to VC's incompetence, and the services targeted audience) that I don't think it's trustworthy mail service outside of throw away accounts anymore.

@vokainen099 Fedora Mail had it's registrations permanently closed for over a year now because someone made a throw away account to send a bomb threat. I think @j could open an account if you ask him though.
