From another news story covering this: "The man reached the peak of Mount Shavano around 11:30 a.m. but, when he turned to descend the mountain, became disoriented when he found that the group had picked up the belongings being used as trail markers as they hiked down before him, according to search and rescue officials."

I couldn't watch past the Federation/Fediverse discussion. You can have several words for the same thing. There is no such thing as a "real word" so long as it fits the language. Language is a living evolving thing. And I watched and by that point they didn't even get into how it works and explained everything but.

OpenShell is your friend then. I haven't seen the Windows 8 or 10 menu in years except when using the text launcher to start OpenShell after I closed it.

Putting an object out where patrons can interact with it one thing... putting out jars that are surprisingly intact after 3 and a half millennia is just damned irresponsible if you ask me.

While people who know me would think that it is Bioshock 2 for a ton of issues, but that is mostly because it is automatically compared to Bioshock, ARK: Survival Evolved for its issues but I have 9k hours in it and growing so I can't say that, or the horribly disappointing Baldur's Gate after I finally got to play it years after and it kept giving me migraines. No. The worst game I ever played was also one of the most beautiful and beautifully animated arcade games, Dragons Quest. You had to match your movements to certain flashes on the TV and between input lag, multiple inputs reading as rejections, and frequently flaky controls the game was impossible for all but the most rich to get past the first 2 or three prompts. I on occasion saw a player who had pumped a couple of hundred of dollars into the machine to figure out its quirks and know when it was broken and they actually got somewhere. I never did. The same happened for the less successful Space Quest which was the same machine with a new cabinet, broadly speaking.
