@brockpierson Yes, we had that with our c64. It took ages to load a game, but you could also just copy a game from a friend if you had a tape to tape deck. You could, but it would be illegal.
The craziest thing about those days were that game books were published with code you had to type in
@DannyDrinksWine If she held on to the $42000 in t bills until today, they would roughly be worth $220000 today.
Had she instead put it in the S&P500 it would be worth $4.2m today.
Morale: Don’t take financial advice from sexworkers
@fishcanride I would look at the statistics of how many flats tires and crashes they experience compared to UAE and then look at the tire manufacturer and profile used
@JohnEDeaton1@JoelKatz@Ripple@SECGov Why would Jay Clayton, a successful lawyer, take a government salary SEC job? He worked for the ETH Foundation, and he only joined the SEC when XRP had flipped ETH in market cap. Clayton started the lawsuit ON THE LAST DAY in office. Why? Because he received $15m in backpay.
@shimapooooo Sprinter spikes have been like that for ages. I used them in the 70-80ties. When you sprint 100-200-400m, your heel never touch the ground, so no need for a heel, and the shoe is lighter without a heel.
@LollexSushi@zachnehr@EvenepoelRemco@RBH_ProCycling If you look at stage 11 of the 2024 Tour de France, Pogacar dropped everyone, but Vingegaard drove his own tempo and caught up with Pogacar. So, yes it is possible https://t.co/NPJSXFujvM
@BenjiNaesen Many Dutch people regard rules as obstacles that must be overcome rather than followed. Jan-Willem is a product of the proud rule bending Dutch culture and cannot be blamed for trying.
@WSOP@TheGrinder44 My guess is Grinder hit a straight with the 9, but with his higher 4 flush draw prompting him to raise. Or he had a set and didn’t believe the flush showing on the opponents board
@final_pot@WSOP@martinkabrhell@elielezra1 Martin plays a really bad starting Stud8 hand and is (un)lucky to get 2 pair. To Eli the Q and T are bricks to Martins possible 7 low, so he plays his KK with A blocker aggressively for best high, knowing that Martin is likely to miss the low and lose to Eli’s high.
@jefferinc@raffamimmo Why? Classics are won by people above 70kg and Jonas is below 60kg. That’s like saying Van der Poel should be a GC rider. Different body types excel at different races
@xpmarket Wondering if @xpmarket is a scam platform? Your [email protected] doesn’t exist while you post it in your mails, and scammers send NFT Creation messages to drain users crypto wallets. Do better or crypto will never be able to go mainstream
@LeRemcOptimiste Jonas gives stage victories to his teammates. Jonas stopped riding when Remco and Pogi crashed. Jonas cares deeply about his family. Jonas kept fighting to get back, even when seriously injured in a crash. Jonas have more heart and soul than you understand apparently
@JCI_JohnEvans If we compare with Usain Bolt shenanigans while racing, this seems benign. In 2008 Beijing Olympic 100m finals, Usain celebrated for 20m and still broke the world record.
This young athlete must’ve rubbed officials the wrong way to get a warning first and a DQ. He will grow
