    "We will not tolerate an annexation of our territory": Guyana's response to the Essequibo defense law approved by Venezuela

    In this case Guyana is the weak party. In case Venezuela decided to invade them it is unlikely they would be able to withstand it. They would need external support for that, but at the moment there are too many fronts with USA and European countries focusing in Ukraine, Middle East, Taiwan, and...

    Iran's President dies in helicopter crash

    Well, I hope it was just lack of maintenance, or the fact the the helicopter was very old. If there is actual foul play things could escalate again. I hope there is no escalation.

    Iran's President dies in helicopter crash

    I hope this power vacuum doesn't lead to a yet worsened situation regarding local and global peace. When you think you know bad the world can always come back at you to surprise you.

    Youtube is driving me loco with the ads

    Hi. Inspired by your post I decided to try a new browser. I just tried Waterfox and I am thinking of moving into it. it seems fast and nice. With uBlock origins ads seem under control... Would you say there's any reason I should instead consider moving to Iridium or plain Firefox?

    GBAChef: What age did you start cooking.

    I might have cooked an egg here and there, boiled some hot dogs or perhaps even some boxed pasta... even put frozen pizza in the oven, or "cooked" some other ready-for-microwave frozen food. But true cooking (and by true I mean following a recipe to achieve actual mediocre food from raw...

    Does Anybody Here Listen To Video Game Music? Be honest Folks, It's Time To Come Out Of The Digital Closet...

    Well yes... Nier stuff, Many songs from Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger/Cross, Xeno*, Soma Bringer, etc). But I listened to those more often in the past. Final Fantasy stuff, Nobuo Uematsu songs... I think the (only) thing I liked about FFXV was all these new versions of old songs you could...

    DOOM has been ported to the retro game console in Persona 5 Royal

    Look at me! Look at me! I don't like DOOM in Persona 5, and my opinion is the only one that matters! Look at me! Hey, did you look at me yet?! Look at me! /s

    Man, sometimes burnout hits you hard. I feel like shit, kind of wishing I could go to sleep and not wake up for days, until somehow for reasons unknown I just feel better.

    Did you use Floppy Disk/Diskettes?

    I guess you also used the horrible parallel-port based 100MB IOMEGA ZIP Drives. That stuff was so slow, yet somewhat practical, I remember a friend had one of those back around 1996 or 1997, all kind of stuff including SNES/Genesis ROMs came and went between us using those disks (actually I...

    Did you use Floppy Disk/Diskettes?

    To be honest, talking about old C++... I believe there was nothing more convenient out there for a kid to learn C/C++ than the old Borland Turbo C IDEs. The way they packed IDE and documentation all together and get that shit working even on an old stinky 80286 was amazing, the most accessible...

    Suggestion Limiting new users to 1 thread, then a cooldown timer. We also need more staff

    Can't you create some kind of degraded lower responsibility class of moderator. Something like "Spam Flagger" or whatever, someone that has a "report" button on steroids. Users which have been granted this "power" could mark a given user (or thread) as spam. The user/thread will then be...

    Did you use Floppy Disk/Diskettes?

    Those are the ones I used when I was a kid, 160KB single side disks (but to be honest they were more like 170KB when you formatted them in the C64). I also used them in my XT, but then they were 320KB double side. I also used them in my 286 later, the HD variant of 1.2MB, and I remember there...

    Suggestion Limiting new users to 1 thread, then a cooldown timer. We also need more staff

    They can make their one thread, and keep posting on it every 5 minutes. Then the next day they could even make another new thread. I don't see any problem. <grumpy old man> Also, if they can't wait one day then let them go... who cares about users that don't have any patience. </grumpy old man>

    Suggestion Limiting new users to 1 thread, then a cooldown timer. We also need more staff

    Why such a short cooldown? I think a 1 day cooldown per thread until say 10 threads have been posted by the new user would be very reasonable. Also a 5 minutes cooldown per post until 20 posts are posted (in general) would be a good idea perhaps.
