Hitler already had Germany. Why'd he want the Czech Republic and Poland?

These guys demonized emulation despite the fact that game companies frequently use them in their classic game collections, right? Oh yeah, Denuvo can eat my ass with a spoon.

Jimmy Carter was always a nice guy, but a hapless president. His reputation improved substantially after he started doing work for Habitat for Humanity. He was no longer the guy chased by a swamp rabbit while out fishing; he was a humanitarian, doing his damnedest to serve the community.

I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings... made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize

There must be some technique for this that I'm not getting right, because I do have needlenose pilers, and that just takes it from impossible to nearly so. Those magnets are really strong, man! They'd probably suck out my fillings if they were still metal. Since the pliers are also metal, they get attracted to the sides, making it tough to pilot the screws into their holes. Should I be using a pair with an angled end, for better reach with the screwdriver? (Heh, too bad they don't make non-metal pliers.)

@dannotdaniel This gives me a counter-boner. I think my penis has taken refuge inside my pelvic bone.

Gen X Grown-Up reviews the Parker Bros. 2600 library (www.youtube.com)

Toy manufacturer Parker Bros. dipped its proverbial toes into the video game industry back in the early 1980s, producing Atari 2600 games that run the gamut from pretty decent (Star Wars Empire Strikes Back is so fondly remembered that fans continue to convert it to other formats) to the slow, dull as dishwater conversion of...

Hopefully it doesn't take seven years to arrive like Voyager did.

A question. What's the development environment like for Spectrum games? I know even ten year olds are making games as classroom projects, so it doesn't seem like it would be that tough. Problem is, the Spectrum is pretty limited even by the standards of 1980s home computers.

Oh, they WOULD tell us that. And then when we're lulled into a false sense of security...

My dream of setting up a Mac Mini as a combo torrent seedbox / Plex server seems to be dying. To do so I need a VPN with both 1) port forwarding, 2) split tunneling on Macs, so I can exclude the Plex app from the VPN. No VPN appears to offer both, and the number of VPN services that offer port forwarding at all is dropping as we speak - two major VPNs just announced they were ending port forwarding in the last month!

@adamconover We've got celebrities now?! That's an encouraging sign.

Tell HN: Nearly all of Evernote’s remaining staff has been laid off | Hacker News (news.ycombinator.com)

Its acquirer (Bending Spoons) has taken over operations. They’ve also hiked subscriptions prices and told customers they intend to use new revenues to pay for new features. How they intend to do that without any staff is something I would like to know about....
