Is it me? Or is it the kids that are wrong?
Nah, you’re both right. When that Amiga was out, if you wanted entertainment, you have to leave the house, go to a movie, god ~85, you might not even have had a VCR.
That Amiga was the greatest, most useful and entertaining thing on the market.
Now a days, a shitty c-rate cellphone can bring you every movie, tv show, song, idiot with a camera that you’d ever want to experience.

Ours has been there for over a decade, It’s not ideal, but moving it all is an undertaking. Over the years we’ve created alternative methods to work around the CI when it’s down, Ideally we’d host our own
ohh yeah, I made 50 edible pizzas to get here, but the quality and consistency finally reach what i look for in commercial pizza kitchens.
yeah, they wouldn’t have angled the undercarriage, the windows and doors would just leak water
or maybe… the one on the left is the photoshop! /s
Pour 5 gallons into the Grand Canyon, and you’d get about the same effect.
I’ve reported the disinformation and now i’m blocking you
They’re making some shitty assumptions that someone will read and pass off as fact. Some asshole manager somewhere will read that bullshit and tell a diabetic they can wait to eat because it’s no big deal because wanderingwanderer needs to feel like they said their peace about shit they don’t live with.
I wasn’t thinking about that because I assumed
Don’t go on rants about medical shit you know nothing about before you spread disinformation and get someone hurt.
I always fucked up making pizza dough. I’d weigh the ingredients to the gram, work it per the instructions, and it always ended up a sloppy mess or dry clusterfuck.
I finally figured out hydration based on how the dough reacts. It took me 50 pizzas to get it right. Now I don’t even measure.
But I can only make pizza dough :) Bread works out slight differently
They almost had alarms once. The fire code requires you to be able to get out in case of a fire. So they put doors in that pseudo lock and have alarms to try to keep people from stealing but allow them to escape in case of a fire.
In high theft areas or new buildings, they often still work.
The first time they break or someone disables them they have a high chance of never getting reactivated
You message is is medically wrong, It misunderstands both diabetes and hypoglycemia, and it gives unsafe advice.
A diabetic with low blood sugar absolutely does need fast‑acting sugar.
That’s not optional, not “only if they messed up,” and not something complex carbs can fix quickly enough.Hypoglycemia is an acute medical emergency, especially for insulin‑dependent diabetics.
Complex carbs (starches) take 20–60 minutes to digest.
A hypoglycemic diabetic can lose consciousness in under 5 minutes.
Simple sugars are only necessary if they messed up by not eating enough and already have dangerously low levels.
This is false.
Hypoglycemia is extremely common in diabetics, especially those using insulin or sulfonylureas. It is not a separate condition. It is a direct consequence of diabetes treatment.
Insulin overdose
Delayed meals
Exercise
Alcohol
Illness
Normal day‑to‑day variation in insulin sensitivity
All can cause hypoglycemia in diabetics.
So saying “that’s hypoglycemia, not diabetes” shows a misunderstanding of how diabetes works.
You should consider educating yourself about diabetic hypoglycemia or insulin_overdose. before you start handing out medical advice.
It’s about 3x what it was 25 years ago.
I used to sell soda at work. We’d go buy cases when it went on sale and sell it to the people.
A sale in 2000/2001 would cost you ~ $0.20 a can. Stuff not on sale would be a touch over a quarter, so we sold the soda for a quarter. Never made any money, we just didn’t feel like paying $0.75 a can when the company stopped giving out free soda and put in a vending machine.
For the next few years, the sales would be closer to a quarter a can with an occasional sale being closer to 20 cents.
Costco is currently around $0.61 for Diet coke.
The WII is 20 years old, they all had dancepads 20 years ago.
The only ones still running ddr have camera or motion controllers. dancepads are mostly dead tech

My misto started doing a 50:50 spray stream after 5 years. I ran soapy water through it and it got better, does need some upkeep though. After 5 years, i might consider it worn out.

That’s exactly what I was thinking.
Maybe get a couple and put some pinball switches in them.
