For a good time, call 1194.

This graffiti was seen, around 1993, in various toilets, referencing the national talking-clock service.

1194 == "On the third tone it will be 3:45 and 30 seconds, beep beep beeep."

( * Has some NSFW skins mixed in.)

A simple network share.

Does your router have a USB port?

Plug in a thumb drive (32-64gb is fine) and configure it in your router's admin interface to share on the network. (FTP and SMB shares)

An easy way to have all devices in a house able to access a shared directory. (Pictures, movies, music, files)

I haven't used Signal.

Is your 'registered Signal number' your phone handset number?

[You are right, Delta Chat uses AutoCrypt, which is OpenPGP based.]

No spam, because it is a family group for sharing non-public pictures etc.

You'd only get spam if you invited a spammer to chat.

The privacy comes from the E2EE.

DeltaChat.

It packetises and encrypts chats, using email(SMTP) as the transport medium. Sends downsampled pics, videos or push-to-talk audio by default. Can send full quality pics, videos, or attachments too, as a file.

Integrates with Jitsi Meet to connect video-calls.

It's available on F-Droid, and you can use a seperate free-email-address(100MB limit) for the SMTP backend (from https://nine.testrun.org/ ), or use your own existing email address.

Elegant and robust.

Thanks, this is helpful :^)

Also, I preference spear/glaive weapons for the range (augment stone to enhance speed).

Re-growth can root a non-flying enemy and give 3-4 free hits with these two weapons.

Can usually be zapped to block line-of-sight for enemies with ranged attacks, and provide the equivalent of 1 health potion every 2 levels from dew drops.

I guess because the lightning-wand can cause self-damage, I mostly skip using it, and never upgrade it.

Didn't know about the highest damage rating, thanks for that.

I'll try an upgraded lightning build, the next time I see it.

I've wondered about blastwave.

If you knock someone down to the next level, do you definitely get their XP and item/coins below, when you get dpwn to that level?

I'd swap regrowth and lightning.

Hitherto!

Protip: Snow-leopard is not white

Understood, it was intense but rewarding.

Must be satisfying to use that thumb to collect the amulet on 26.

:D

Mind blown 😳

I thought I knew most of the tricks of this game.

Twilight Zone movie.

Watched alone on dark night.

The part when the lady visits the house, where the family is terrified of putting a foot out of line.

That has the most distasteful feeling of dread. Really well done, not for kids!

I love this artwork.

That is a fun fact about it, thanks!

Dreamed up by the utterly deranged.

After living and working in that red-zone... totally nailed the caption. Beautiful and hot.

'Debian in unexpected places'

There are some 5 hoop moves on her official channel : Coral Jade

Finding some conclusive supporting material about the (as yet unsolved) Voynich Manuscript.

Either, enough information to decode a possible cypher, or proof that it is an elaborate troll/hoax/joke.

Could be the 'Rosetta Stone moment' of the modern era.

I agree, I thought about it

I like that era too.

Aztec(1976) came up recently, and I was very much considering getting it, due to the in-depth detail in these Technology Connections videos. Not sure if the gameplay is any good though.

Medieval is fun, launching cows and all.

The original ST:TNG was great also.

One of the tables at this tournament was Walking Dead too!, unforgiving table angle.

I own no pins at home, except toy size Batman battery operated(Funrise with the ramps)

My top table is Banzai Run (2 games in 1 ;-), can 7x replay

I like Attack from Mars(and just a little less Revenge from Mars).

The original Indy:Pinball Adventure is an all time favourite and one of the first I played(as long as the flippers have enough kick to score jackpots and reach the Path of Adventure).

If I got a table, it would be Judge Dredd.

Grew up only playing 80s/90s video arcade machines. Appreciated pinball later, especially the analog aspect and finding out about basic moves like lane-transfers.

My nonpro-tip: Read the info-card for the word multiball! (c:

Alternatively, a program that is a wrapper for your entire browser/device, that observes video and audio, to automatically carry out the blanking/muting.

Ads load as normally, but are never seen or heard by the user.

Theoretically, an air-gapped system that is worn on the head, rather than installed to the device would be undetectable.

An AR vision headset that detected known-ad-signatures and could blank or replace ads in realtime, with targetted noise-cancelling to 'mute' specific ad audio, could surgically remove ads from any media(billboard, magazine, video, radio, webpage).

Kind of like reverse-Snowcrash augmentation.

Teaching the alternatives to closed-source software: GCompris

This video shows what is possible after a teardown, and yellowing-removal with 12% hydrogen peroxide solution.

If you are worried about making the plastic brittle, just follow the cleaning with soapy water part.

About 10 years ago I qualified to enter a state pinball tournament.

Of 16 qualifying entrants(or who could be bothered to enter), I placed 6th.

So I see it as, I was the 6th best pinball player in a state of 3million people, for a year. :-)

Do the Right Thing - Spike Lee

Prep for the 90s.

Sparked the worldwide anime boom, so yeah, pretty iconic.

I saw a warning-documentary 2 weeks ago on the big-screen, it was called 'John Carpenter's The Thing'

Leave that shit well alone.

If this is an actual warning about snake-sightings inside this tunnel, it is one of the best!

Leisure Suit Larry

Thanks for the links, something I have not really thought about. I pretty much assume very low security/privacy on all modern smartphones anyway(commercial or FLOSS ecosystems).

F-Droid is a handy way to find and support devs who are sharing their expertise.

Certainly, use the download-channels that you are comfortable with.

As mentioned on that page, F-Droid and IzzyOnDroid can link you to many decent FLOSS apps. It's an easy way to be exposed to a large amount of free software.

Exciting hour(aka Mat Mania) was awesome for the time.

Fast paced and difficult, until you work out their attacks.

I'm counting Discs of Tron as a sport.

Very fun disc battles.

More unknown and underappreciated in the current era, than underappreciated at release.

Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe on Amiga, was an outstanding future brawl-ball simulator.
