need a "potato" option
I would love Fedivens in other cities and towns in Australia to please share their local TV ads from decades past; things I would never have seen in Melbourne.
@futzle WA Salvage was a classic. The catchy phrase was always"We're not fancy but we're cheap eh" was always at the end https://youtu.be/3ekXRl-bTfE

Years ago I thought the most of the #Epstein case was a conspiracy, unfortunately it’s more horrific in reality
Some of the worlds most powerful people involved in crimes most of us refused to believe, now that there is some out there and we barely scratch the surface nothing seems to happen
If justice where to mean anything we would do as much as we could to hold them accountable, if stealing a bread ends you up in jail why aren’t we prosecuting the powerful who are a lot worse
I wont forget
@stux I'm morbidly curious on where were those qanon folks silent when Epstein news broke out?
Do you have the jingle from the TV ad for The Swagman Restaurant in Ferntree Gully in your head now?
ALL PRAISE PISS MOM, THE SAUCIER

@SeaFury Top notch. Thank you.
Babe wake up, new dwarf planet just dropped!
Dicovered by the Rubin Observatory, "2026 ED138" (for now), is about half the size of Pluto at 1000km (600mi) wide, and is 6AU further from the Sun. It joins the other 5 known dwarf planets.
The word 'behemoth' has always made me stop and laugh whenever I've read it, even in serious media pieces. It sounds too much like 'wet animal' in its etymological roots, like my puppy in a bath. My date tonight disagreed with the thrust of my brief TED Talk and ended the date.
@fesshole It's also mispronounced as 'be-HEE-moth' when it's actually 'bay-er-moth'.

So is a very weird mix in Catalonia, Spain, Romania or everywhere else. People migrate due to economic reasons mainly, they work for less, do not speak the local language in many cases, do not care about the local culture, they just want to make a buck. Others come in for holidaying, to consume the tribe. Some locals take advantage of them, abuse the migrants at times, make money off of tourists, then complain about them, and so forth.
They start to blame each other and in the process the visual and cultural differences are easy targets: those Mexicans stealing our jobs, those dirty Gypsies, those stupid brown people, the Romanian thieves, the arrogant British tourists!
What is clear is that if people were to have a decent life, the Catalans, the Gypsies, the Mexicans, the Romanians and the rest, then there will be a lot less people migrating and “stealing” the locals’ jobs or committing crimes, and thus less of this forced mixing of cultures. Less consumerism, and thus less tourism, less short term rentals. And if people were not to be workers for most of the year, then them holidaying could be more spread-out through the year, not creating the insane tsunami of tourists in July-August in all of Spain, and probably all over the world.
In essence, it is not the fault of the Catalans, or the immigrants, or my fault, or anyone’s fault. It is this society that transforms us into consuming working idiots who then mix and clash with each other.

Am I the first person ever to run a Bourne shell on a Commodore 64 I wonder.
A 1MHz 6502 sucks at disk I/O, sucks at copying memory and sucks at running C code, especially when the C code has to be optimized for space not speed. But it works.
I have plans for REU support which I think will make it much much faster assuming i can get away with a few tricks and the timing doesn't break anything.
@vriska @bulletbill22 LEAST she can do is make you a burger.
