If you're a fan of the original "Super Mario Allstars" for the SNES, you should also know about its famous "brick bug", which is actually super annoying once you realize it's there. Luckily, there's a simple fix!

Here's a good explanation:

Ik pleit voor een Amerikaans systeem van government lockdowns. Een demissionair kabinet dat niet langer het volk vertegenwoordigd kan alles zonder verantwoording doen. Een financiële lockdown verhoogd daarnaast de druk op formerende partijen. De formatie duurt zo veel te lang.

Wat mij betreft gaan we daarnaast naar een opzet waarbij de grootste partij alle verdeling doet en de rest dat maar moet accepteren zodat ze twee dagen na de uitslag aan het werk kunnen.

@martijn uiteindelijk is de Tweede Kamer toch de baas? als ze echt willen kunnen ze het demissionaire kabinet wegsturen, dus storm in glas water denk ik.

@martijn de hoofdreden van de duur lijkt mij dat er een fascistische partij zonder leden en een clownsprogramma, die toevallig de grootste is maar lang geen meerderheid heeft, meedoet aan de formatie.

hbons,
@hbons@mastodon.social avatar

@martijn het is inhoudelijk maar ik heb wat absurde dingen toegevoegd…

het lijkt mij ondemocratisch om de groote partij (zonder meerderheid) zoveel macht te geven. krijg je toestanden als in het VK waar een partij waar 40% op stemt alle macht heeft. als bijeffect gaan waarschijnlijk partijen fuseren of verbintenissen aan om maar 1e te worden en hou je 2 grote partijen over.

In London, where can I buy an adapter to plug an EU power cable into a UK socket?

hbons,
@hbons@mastodon.social avatar

@quixoticgeek use a small stick to press down inside the ground hole of the socket and you can insert the EU plug like normal. I’ve done this a lot but not responsible for the consequences. :)

@quixoticgeek I remember Boots pharmacy sometimes having them. Poundland and the like are also worth a look.

A Cellino & Barnes ad photoshopped on the bin: "Injured? You might be, this is a 737 Max."

There are 32x32 blits happening that could be smaller but it's proved out (so far!) the dumbest possible sorting from the Python prototype, and there's a whole lot more game systems in there now just to make it work.

I really hate to throw away food, but maybe "best before December 2022" is a little too old for a bag of coffee, even if it was unopened. It looked perfectly fine, but smelled almost nothing, so probably tastes nothing as well. I do have a new bag. 😅 ☕

@veronica you can still use it as plant food! 🪴

@AmicableAnimal still getting yearly emails of a reduce stress competition where you compete against other teams and win prices. no joke.

I have followed the Palestinian struggle since about 2000 and read every book I could on the subject.

But TikTok has really made this knowledge accessible to the public. The TikTokers know how to explain in small bursts like nothing I have seen before.

Accurate and concise.

hbons,
@hbons@mastodon.social avatar

@Migueldeicaza at least in the Netherrlands there has always been this smokescreen in the media of “don’t say anything about this. it’s too complicated and you’ll say something wrong. I guess we will never know who’s right”.

young people today don’t watch traditional media and see this shit for what it is.
