@UWargie I see no stream...

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

@XboxSupport Still completely down for me. Can't play any GP games nor any games I've purchased digitally.

@shanselman I need this shirt in my life.

@brianokken I now only create parameterized (dangit I just misspelled it didn't I?) tests by a VS Code snippet because I simply cannot type "@pytest.mark.parametrize" without messing it up.

@RockBand Still not working for me as of 10 minutes ago (6PM PST).

@Ryan_Runs_ @BookClub4Movies I mean we held out for a good 14 hours before....

I don’t know if this drive would still work today, but if it did I’d bet money that it has the following on it:

* MS-DOS 6.22
* DOOM

IIRC those two things totalled about 30MB (or 3/4s of the drive). 😛

Was going through my closet and found the motherboard from my very first PC. Thread ensues.

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

Then in same box found the old hard drive that was in that computer: a 40MB (yes, “megabyte”, not gigabyte) drive. Pictures showing how huge it is. Contrast with a modern Samsung SSD. It also weighs a ton.

@BookClub4Movies FWIW, my wife totally dug it and is hooked. :shrug:

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

@BookClub4Movies I tried, I really, really did (esp since you all were so big on it), but couldn't even get through season 1 (want to say got maybe 2 episodes in?). Just not my cup of tea. :shrug:

@chanika @SarahMackAttack Also in BC, still waiting for my mail-in vote package... :/

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

@BookClub4Movies High Score, Game Over, same thing. C'mon just read my mind. :p

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

@BookClub4Movies Finished this ep today. Thoughts: Cobra Kai absolutely consumed me. Watched both seasons in about 3 days this week. Game Over is also awesome (ep6 is about Carmack & Romero working on DOOM!). Still haven't watched Stargirl so apparently I'm a terrible person.

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

@0_H_P Was fun to hear you talk games again. If you ever do an achievement show I want in on it. :p

[Adam Parkin @pzelnip]

@BookClub4Movies Please please please please at some point do an episode on the Dead Pool. Not Deadpool, but the Dead Pool. https://t.co/bTjphEhaYt :D
