Run the VPN right from the device itself, allowing for DNS blocking of whatever you want. Previously, Blokada was used, now Rethink DNS is preferred.

He's still in it for the fascist coup.

So the "second story" is "floor 1"? That seems odd.

Speaking of that, you could have also had "stories" vs "storeys" in this.

Employees can daily clean as much of the machine as they can access, and there will still be a bit of black biofilm in there (not mold). The same biofilm lives down in all of your sink drains.

First, they came for the cats, and I said nothing because I was not a cat.

Party of loving Israel and also Nazis.

Ah, that's right. Sometimes the cards were adapted to fit the art afterwards. Ankh of Mishra was supposed to be Ark of Mishra (reillustrated as an ark in Fifth Edition) and Hyalopterous Lemur was supposed to be a Lemure (a shadow-like spirit).

It's official, and classic! The first few years, there were not really any guidelines; the artist was given the name of the card (and its color, I think) to illustrate, and that's it.

New players: "It doesn't grant Indestructible, and it's not an Aura!"

I was recommended by a well-known privacy guide to use Rethink with AhaDNS Blitz, but it seems to fail often; nothing resolves until the VPN is stopped and restarted. Any ideas or advice?

Bizarre Equilateral Love Triangle

Just because you put +5V, +12V, and ground on the Molex plug doesn't mean the drive is going to be powered up and spinning. The controller on the drive controls the motors (duh) and may be shutting the whole works down if it's receiving what it interprets as invalid or malformed commands.

I was trying the same thing years ago, with a mid-90s HDD, a dedicated power supply for it, and a couple different IDE-USB adapters, and never got it to work. The drive shutting down when USB adapter is plugged in sounds familiar.

You got it. The IDE-USB adapters will technically only work with drives supporting ATA-2 (EIDE and newer).

Maybe they've finally fixed those problems. In Lakka, I set my controller up once (for each unique controller) in RetroArch frontend, and then it works in any emulator core. I don't think it's normal to have to set up the controller in each core (but you can, if you want or need to!)

EmuDeck uses EmulationStation, in which I've seen a lot of controller-related problems. Controllers working in the menu but not in the emulators. Controllers working in the emulators but not in the menus.

For a dedicated emulation machine, I'll once again shill for Lakka, that boots LibreELEC directly into RetroArch without EmulationStation, and has bootable installers for multiple configurations of x86_64 machines and images for loads of single-board computers.

Lots of arcade games and other amusement machines made in the last twenty years run on desktop Linux.

Incredible Technologies games, Raw Thrills/Play Mechanix Big Buck Hunter Pro, Arachnid dartboards, and TouchTunes jukeboxes off the top of my head.

This one towers over the denizens of New Phyrexia and then dies fighting a rhinoceros, unless it has snacktime first. They should have gone with original Dreadnought materials instead of porcelain. I suppose the old Phyrexians had the advantage of being tempered in a rain of boiling oil.

I love the art of the Domini but apparently not as much as I love taking the stats of game pieces literally. 😅

Rumor is that Trump offered RFK Jr, an anti-vaccination conspiracy theorist, the position of Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Interesting like watching a train go off a broken bridge into a ravine.

Let's just say "many!" The game is also proven Turing-complete so you can build a general-purpose computer within it, if you like.

My quick description of MtG to interested non-players: "One of the original CCGs, created by a math professor, like chess but you build your army from a pool of tens of thousands of pieces which is then randomized. Richard Garfield somehow patented turning cards sideways. 😅"

The way I've always heard it is that Conservatives will eat a shit sandwich if it means a Liberal has to smell it.
