Pohlavár Himl se mu vysmál, ale špiclové byli krátcí. "Nedo" utekl až do Síně slávy

Uplynulo pět let ode dne, kdy byl Václav Nedomanský uveden do Síně slávy v Torontu. Projděte si příběh střelce, který kvůli snu emigroval za oceán.

While doing an unrelated Google search, I discovered a Youtube video about a fascinating toy from the 70's. I've never owned or seen one of these, but the way they managed to make the toy seem to be intelligent is just amazing. There's no computer chips, no data processing, none of that. Just an 8-Track player at the heart of the thing. 2XL: The '70s Toy that Faked AI with an 8-Track: youtube.com/watch?v=amuRIydCoJ…

I had a 2XL back in the day. It really was just an 8-track tape player with four buttons to jump too each of the tracks. Each track was recorded in such a way that, whenn you switched tracks at the right time, you'd get a different response. As you say, it had no intelligence but it sure did a nice job faking it. Unless you were one of thhose kids who understood how 8-track tapes worked.

@DavidGoldfield I also had a 2XL, didn't know how it worked until long after they were both dead. I had two, not at the same time, and quite a few tapes. Some were, Battman's Gotham City, Riply's Believe it or Not, Spiderman (unsure of full title,) and Music Maker, which was the coolest one! It allowed you to use diferent musical snippets to make a song! Primitive now of course.

Damnit 念无双people, why are you stingy with the promos??
Ok at this rate I want to say all I want is for A Moment But Forever to release now so that I can stare at the pretty people.
Ok ONE specific pretty person, admittedly.
Also realised that it's not that I dislike #xianxia. So much of xianxia is catered to the 20s demographic. I want the characters to be more mature and older. We older folks want our fantasy stories too & this is a rare one that caters to older audiences.

Oha, das ist provokativ: Dieser Blogartikel sagt:

- Nutzt kein #PGP / #GPG
- Nutzt kein #XMPP + OMEMO
- Nutzt kein #Matrix (im Sinne: verlasst euch nicht auf die Verschlüsselung)
- E-Mails verschlüsseln ist sinnlos

Ich kenne den Autor nicht und würde ihn nicht erwähnen, würde der Artikel nicht in ernstzunehmenden ITSec-Newslettern zitiert

Good morning Fediversistas! We walk out into winter once more, the snow thick on the ground, the dawn delayed by ominous clouds, the air sharp in our lungs, snowballs collect on leg fur and wellington boots, fingers tingle as we remove gloves to feed the swans, we are grateful for the snow, for the pictures it paints across the landscape, for the new day, and we walk on into it

Streetart. A small hamster (named Anastasia) with a tree was painted with chalk on the tiled floor next to a flower pot. It sits next to a (painted) tree trunk in a (painted) hole and looks up into the treetops. However, these are not painted, but small shamrocks that grow next to the clay pot and have been integrated into the chalk painting without further ado. Title: "Anastasia waits for good luck to fall into her lap."
