I remember not being able to play some games due to having a powerful enough graphic card but the wrong “kind” so neither option was good. At least I can use any card with any standard program now

I do enjoy DirectX and the Plug and Play standards though

I am always terrified of meeting moose while hiking, especially with calves. I didn’t know they specced into the terror tree against humans but it does explain it!

If you imagine being happy working while using Teams, how would your rate your experience between three and five stars?

500 games in I suspect her to give away a point just to have it all end

Im a low low ELO player but enjoy chess. I teached a kid how to play on a summer event, and the kid, probably around 10 years old, never did the same error twice and easily beat me on the third day (around 5 games a day vs me and who knows how many against the other event leaders)

Really humbling, but I think I helped kindle a new hobby for the kid

A friend’s father got kidnapped by the state here in sweden due to not showing up for draft… It does sound way worse with those words though

Just don’t use ordinary shrink tubing, it doesn’t seal properly in the front and may tighten too hard for comfort

Thanks for the site :)

Is a nice site if you want to expand into Nordic/Swedish books in your collection

I know, I’ve even heard of pages missing from paperbacks published by reputable print houses here in sweden

I like the ringantasy over romantasy any day. Sometimes I also read sword-and-sandalsantasy.

Thanks for the link!

Thanks :)

Is it found that that is the line? Afaik it’s still unknown

At least when I grew up in the late 80s and 90s both boys and girls read the books and watched the movies with Pippi.

I agree that Hollywood is a blight on the cultural landscape, and you basically have to disregard their movies if you want to find something deeper than a puddle, with exceptions few and far between

I saw that as parental instinct since protection of young are not gender coded, but you can read it as maternal for sure as a mirror to the Queens hatred after the egg burning

Ellen Ripley’s gender doesn’t matter until Resurrection, which isn’t the highlight of the movie.

A lot of media have strong female characters but their gender or sex does matter for the story so can’t easily be replaced

Susan in the book Soul Music (plus some others) as well as the Witches, Tiffany Achings and more from Pratchett

Death from Sandman (even though the author is very controversial, but you could check the books out from sources that doesn’t give him a kick back)

Was a long time since I read them but the Polgara books feature a strong female protagonist

We got classic youth/kids media that shows strong female characters even if some stuff are coloured by weird takes (Such as Xander Harris): Xena, Buffy and Pippi Longstockings

Dr. Doom vs Chthon would be fun

You save quite a lot of time when working on a database if it’s stored in RAM compared to tape, so it does make sense to use that technology
