Random Terrain

After Best Buy, my sister took me to a Mexican restaurant, then we went to Dave and Busters to play half off games. We played air hockey, ski ball, a couple basketball games, a sit down Jurassic Park game where you shoot dinosaurs, and a couple random other games. I felt better after that. I have to mow tomorrow, so it might be one more day before I get to hook up the new computer.

Best of Luck! I hate that too.

Thanks. Except for coming in for drinks of water and to go to the bathroom, I was outside for around nine hours doing yardwork today, so I didn’t get a chance to hook up the new computer. I might be in bed all day tomorrow, so the computer may not be hooked up tomorrow either.

Hope you're doing better, RT. Sorry to hear you had to deal with some real life randomness...

PSVR is NOT augmented reality and how were you supposed to know the lawnmower blades weren't real?

In all seriousness, hope you're ok.

Thanks for the replies. Here's what happened:

No disrespect RT, I don't think you should eat soy at all then. That is crazy! The article mentions mainstream media (negatively) in the first sentence however...Right wing conspiracy theories also use that...Huge red flag!

Time for a new acronym: YCECCSOYA?

I consider FOX News to be mainstream media too since they extrude as much mainstream bullshit as the other channels. Same stink, different piles. They all have an agenda and it isn't to make your life better.

CGI Tarkin still isn't as bad as the CGI creatures that were added to the scenes in Jabba's palace in the "Special Edition" of "Return of the Jedi." I swear it was like watching "Looney Tunes: Back in Action."

Lea was what creaped me out. I thought Tarkin was good by comparison. The eyes and smile were off.

Yeah, they are getting better, but they aren't there yet. It will be nice when a computer will be able to analyze the look, voice, and performance of an actor and create a new, realistic performance in 3D. Old 20th century TV shows such as the original Star Trek series could be recreated with all new episodes and all of your favorite characters would look, sound, and act just like they did back then.

Found at random on a space station a month or two ago. My other two exotics were also random finds - one landed inside my freighter, and the other (a tiger-striped “squid ship”) I found on a trade platform last night, again at random.

Is every Exotic unique (or supposed to be)?

according to what i've read, there's a finite number of Exotic ships but should at least be unique color scheme and animations...

Well kick ass - that's my bday. They are obviously just coming to celebrate with me.

They want their ET cartridges back...

Well, they'd better leave before December 21, lest they get smashed by a giant meteor.

Those sound like some good meds.

My reply was based on this:

Does anyone know if that's Tod yet? The 2600 forum seems apathetic about it.

Oddly enough I agree with Jetset 100 percent.

We had a case in the UK a few weeks ago where a baby was killed by a Pitbull, which is a banned breed over here. A little over a week ago a 6 day old baby was killed by a Malemute. We have two dogs and they're NEVER left alone with my grandaughter. When you have a baby in the house you never leave dogs unsupervised around it.

Yeah - Pink. They are our "best friends", but they are still animals.

Though amusingly, I remember a few years ago going to visit our breeder. She had a bunch of Chesapeakes over and one of them came with a baby in a high chair. The Chesapeake from that family parked itself dead in front of the high chair and snarled every time one of the other dogs got too close to the baby. It was quite a sight!

My mom bought a marked down pyramid-like rip off of the Rubik's Cube that was easier to solve. It mostly sat on a shelf. It looked like this: https://amzn.to/2DDpdeh

Oh, man. I loved Gatorgum.

Oh yeah the Pyraminx! That's what it was called back then unuless I'm losing my mind (also quite possible)...One year for Christmas we ended up with 3 or 4 Pyraminxes and 4 Rubik's cubes (Some were called Wonderful Puzzlers) between my Dad and brother and I...

Not as extreme, but had something similar happen to me. Was doing SAT tutoring at a place that had offices in a strip mall. One day I come to work to find the doors chained. Turns out the owner stopped paying his rent. I never got my last check, either. Hope things turn out okay for ya RT.

Hopefully ya won't have to move! I wish you the Best!

The rental place said that the tax people had the wrong billing address, so they were sending the tax bill to somewhere that doesn't exist. Everything is supposedly going to be OK.

Yeah, I've seen those ads, too.

Well I'm the King Mama Baby ... get some vitamin Q for Quaalude mama baby...

There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread..

fwiw, I still use Win8.1 on my main (win10 is on my periphal pcs) and lemme tell you 8.1 is the BEST windows OS

Personally been happy with Panda dome on my windows machines. https://www.pandasecurity.com/usa/homeusers/solutions/free-antivirus/

Microsoft Security Essentials is all you would ever need for a Windows PC also don't be stupid on the internet.

And people wonder why I stuck with Opera for over ten years?

I like the speed of this new version, but I clicked at the side of a post to get the address, but the box wouldn't pop up that contains the address.

I did what frankodragon said and downloaded version 56 and set it to never update. I'll go back to the new version once the add-ons have been updated and it's working better.

Noting against legal gun ownership At Home;  But we have the largest military budget in the entire World! $732 Billion (2019)...Do you really think we should trust local militias...whose ideas of "patriotism" may differ from yours or mine?

Lets not get too involved in politics please, I know it sucks, because it is a REAL problem.

^Good call...

We could use the likes of the Tardis right about now.

My emulation collection. It would fit in any spacecraft. From an Apollo capsule up to an O'Neil Cylinder with turbo-fusion thrusters.

I'd bring an Amiga 1200 and Frontier: Elite II.

Works like a Deere, smells like a John.

Had a Girlfriend, left me fer a guy with a better mower once....Chick sent me a John Deere letter!

Seriously that looks like a great mower...My lawn's actually not too big...I only have a rider cuz I was given it...

RT, if having good taste and class means I act like I'm 92, I welcome it. You have neither.

"RT, if having good taste and class means I act like I'm 92, I welcome it. You have neither."

Go eat some caviar and drink something expensive with your pinky in the air, Mr. Good Taste. People with class don't play video games. They are too busy doing more important things like banging their mistress on a yacht, so why in the hell are you here?

Next time stick to deep fried fingers.

Real men stick the pill under their eyelid and let it dissolve that way.

I think pangasinan wins this status update thread.

Oh yeah? well, my meds cause stomach ulcers unless taken with food and water. I have stomach ulcers. Boo-Ya!

Is Enid a Wolf or what?

Who the heck is Glenn?

Nathan Strum wins this status update thread. Sorry, the cheap plastic trophy was set too close to the heater, so it melted and had to be thrown out.

Woo hoo! Now onto the semi-finals!

XD

By the way, that's an interesting take on the 'often' thing. I catch myself doing that from time to time, but with me, it's completely unintentional. I think I just read it that way once as a kid and nobody corrected me, so I kept doing it, haha.

I honestly didn't think it made them sound educated since they all do it.

I see both pronounciations of "often" listed as acceptable. Where's the issue? I also never hear "eponymous" unless it's the R.E.M. album, as mentioned.

10 out of 10 African lions agree!

Then you'd better not beat yourself up...

don't beat your meat, 'cause if you do, it may go tender... You don't want to be dinner and it sure could end er'

points over there and winks... Random Terrain is ushered into nothingness... Nobody is to reveal the plans!

Funny- I had a dream last night of aliens attacking Earth but it was in 1978.

The idiots invaded the wrong planet! They invaded Eeeth instead. Similar name, but a totally different planet in a totally different galaxy. All of my work here has been wasted!

Oh, yeah!

About Dayana Mendoza: "When the musicians show up and they narrow down the jingle style to the mid-'60s Four Seasons, Dayana suggests adding "a little bit pink into it, yellow?"

My music tends to be either chartruce or burnt sienna. Bummer.
