I think Link to the Pastis still my favorite Zelda, probably followed by the original. My former roommate was definitely all about OOT and why I tried to play through it back then

We’re in a prime area to see it. As such, it will be cloudy and moving between rain, sleet, and snow (we’re not sure which yet) at ~17:44 local time when it comes over.

Zelda OOT. The controls, especially when first using the slingshot and such, with the camera just sucked. I never got far with that after I finally tried it in my mid-/late-20s. It’s one of those I found much more enjoyable watching someone else do.

Played Goldeneye for the first time at a barcade in my early 30s and I didn’t really enjoy that much.

As I think about it, anything on N64 and maybe Gamecube that I would try once I had time and money later in life just were not great. I had been playing better PC games, even in the same years, and have zero nostalgia for it which probably doesn’t help.

This autoplays for anyone else who doesn’t want to be jumpscared :/

Hundreds of units of whatever description sounds like a much better place for it than my house.

Never overextend your supply lines and get yourself encircled.

I moved to Japan a decade ago and there are not time changes (though I’d argue that, at least for eastern Japan, we’re in the wrong timezone). It is much easier on my body not making that change twice a year. I have a really sensitive sleep schedule so this is very important to me.

And as my first college ID. And on at least one of my licenses, I think…

UpperEndian format, clearly.

I thought I was going to get drafted just after 2001-09-11 as a young man in the US and nothing has really felt quite at that level since. I did buy a dosimeter when Ukraine was invaded. I don’t know what the future holds. I’m glad I don’t live near any US military bases nor in the US anymore.

I love the idea, but the billionaires know they’re on a timer with regard to staff loyalty and will actively be monitoring the outside world to get out as quickly as possible. In a completely unrelated matter, I think we might have some good spots for building giant concrete structures to contain future radioactive waste…

I instinctively clicked away at ‘researchmaxxxxed’ (or however many 'x’s the thing had). Do I need to go yell at a cloud now?

Thank you!

Don’t forget your FBAR as well if you have basically any non-us bank accounts, securities, etc.

In Japan, it’s common to hear comments on weight and such. Pressure to conform and, sometimes, genuine concern about health. I think aging is unavoidable so it makes it less of a target. Even calling someone tired-looking can be an insult here if done in the wrong way (despite a greeting being お疲れ様です which is often used)

As a rider of a Kawasaki bike I quite like, zero chance you catch me on that thing; I’d rather an actual horse

As opposed to most of Japan where the default mode outside of bars is that, unless you are lost or need help, you should probably keep to yourself. I love the relative silence of trains in much of Japan (further out in the countryside can be more chatty, but it’s also less dense), especially when I had a long in-office day and commutes both ways every weekday.

Anyone have a link? This is just a blank post with plaintext title on mbin :/

It only calls the ZPhone of No Return

I have a '90s Kubota with zero software and just wiring. Downside is, even here in Japan, parts for them are getting really hard to find.
