232: Lode Runner (1983)

This game took quite the journey to the Apple II, starting on the Commodore PET and being developed on university campus machines. By the time Doug Smith refined it for home play, it was a timeless platform puzzler with superb mechanics and limitless longevity by way of a level designer. It’s had many variations since – but single-screen efforts remain the best.

The gaming of us never ends. Threads ensures that an empty search and other unspecified filters always pushes celebrity accounts. Exactly the behavior we should be moving away from. Diversity matters. Celebrity doesn’t. On the upside, anything that helps pillage ExTwitter is a good thing.

@shoq yeah, I really like following topics instead of people. It helps people stay in their lane with expertise and not have to hear one’s opinion on everything

Do you swear to tell the whole truth?

I do. Believe me, the statement I presented to the bank was the best bank statement ever presented to any bank. It was a winning bank statement. Everyone says that. They come to me and say, 'Sir, how do you write the best bank statements,' and I say, 'I only hire the best lawyers.' And this whole trial is very unfair because Everyone Hates Trump.

Someone asked me what I think is going on with Trump's lawyers attacking the clerk.

Yesterday I said this:

"It's hard to tell what is going on with that. My best guess is that Trump's lawyers are fatigued, know they are losing, and are getting weird and paranoid."

Judge Engoron, who sees it all up close, said there is misogyny.

I just saw a picture of the clerk and I have revised my opinion.

The judge may be right . . .

@Teri_Kanefield Also, the lawyer's defence against misogyny was something like 'he had a wife and a daughter' so he can't be, though that's the kind of argument of possession that a misogynyst would fall back on.

So Rudy is getting sued by

So he sues Joe Biden, in a suit that will, at least, be stayed.

Rudy's big announcement is that he is suing Joe Biden for calling him a Russian pawn in 2020. Comes shortly after Hunter Biden sued Rudy.

@GottaLaff other upside is that it probably ensures future issues get some extra latitude so as to not give any credence to this claim (i.e. bending over backwards to show no bias)

Why doesn't Apple make a TV? They would own that space. Half the people I know would happily buy one, if it meant no spyware, user choice, and never buying another "smart" TV again. Even if the cost was 2x normal smart tv.

    Judge Kelly is talking now, in the case, prior to his sentencing.

    Thing is, he always starts out with such condemnation, then disappoints us with the number of years in the sentence.
