Good stuff! I enjoy Banzai Run as well, my buddy and I always get a few rounds on that one at our local pinball haunt. That vertical playfield is super cool!

Never got to clock much time on Indy or Dredd, love AFM though. That’s a game i would consider for my collection someday–that one or Medieval Madness, both are just awesome games. I collect mostly late-70’s/early 80’s solid state games, though i have a particular soft spot for the classic Bally’s and Sterns from that era…

Woot woot! Congrats on that achievement, fellow pinball person! I scrolled this thread just to see if anyone mentioned ye olde silverball and I am not disappointed!

Own any pins? Top 3 favorite games?

I appreciate the recommendation! Thanks!

Any suggestions for a different company to buy cables etc from? I’ve bought their chargers and cables and been happy with them but I’m fine with trying something different next time.

¿Porque no los dos? 💈

It’s like sushi… kinda

Well isn’t that great, mr. moneybags

/S

Yes I’m making a stupid joke bc it’s a paid search engine, something i never would have imagined would be a thing. Now I’m going to price it and perhaps finally pull the trigger on an acct there because fuck google, fuck bing, and fuck all these sites being “wrappers” of them. I come from the dial-up days when lycos, webcrawler, altavista, yahoo–hard searches that would separate the men from the boys. Now we just get this “A.I.” bullshit instead and it falls apart under its own weight. Excuse me while i wave my cane at the sun ☀️

Edit: so it turns out you can get 100 free searches on their site here: https://kagi.com/onboarding?p=choose_plan

Otherwise, it’s $5/month for 300 searches, $10/mo for unlimited, and $25/mo for their “ultimate” exclusive experience…whatever that may be. I’m gonna try the freebies and see what happens. I’m still on the fence about paying for search, but I’m really tired of bs coming from these companies leading to things like we’re experiencing today

Can you refute the info in the article? That would go a lot further to prove your comment valid.

I know this image is completely unrelated to the article, it’s just that i saw the words golden and axe in such close proximity…i wanted to leave that here in case others were thinking the same

I think it does though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

She’s a former registered Republican with an axe to grind with AOC. She became a Democrat only in name, brought all her right-wing bullshit along with her.

So what the hell is this post even for? It links to a single tweet in the middle of a series of tweets from a retired journalist/current politician that otherwise seems to be 100% obsessed with AOC and spends nearly all her time X’ing about her. After having viewed her profile for a minute, i decided to find out a little more and it didn’t take long to reveal a conservative in liberal clothing:

"In her 2010 book, “You Know I’m Right: More Prosperity, Less Government,” Caruso-Cabrera called for privatizing both Medicare and Social Security, which she described as “the country’s biggest pyramid schemes.”

Just like to take this opportunity to say fuck the name “ByteDance”

It’s a stupid, corporate, “hip” name that needs to fade into obscurity asap. Not crazy about the company either, but the name in particular is just so fucking cringe

All i got is about $3.50

That makes sense. Carrying a library is a whole different thing from having access to a library…

I’m in the same boat. I like having physical copies of my favorite games, music, movies, and shows. I also like supporting the artists/productions, so it’s a win-win that i can buy their products. I’ve always struggled to understand why someone would pay the same price (or nearly as much) for a strictly-digital copy.

Making everything fully digital has its advantages but i never once thought it would act as a complete replacement for physical media.

How bout trains in the distance? Every so often i can hear one from my house and it is very comforting in that odd way

No, but you should still vote for them. What else can you do? Vote independent? Change the world?

… and how do we know Reddit didn’t take it from somewhere else? Furthermore: Isn’t that kinda what aggregator sites are supposed to do?!?

Sheesh, I need to brush up on my English
