I'd almost completely forgotten about the existence of "Play By Mail" games, but apparently they were big enough to warrant as much coverage as consoles. The "It's a Crime" ad feels like it was everywhere in the late 80s. And Wayne might be the most 80s dude imaginable.

I seem to remember being deeply intrigued by them. But then I got in with a DnD/Warhammer group and probably saved myself a tonne of money in postage.

Im Artikel "Play by Mail und Play by Modem" wurde u.a. das Spiel "Ashes of Empire" für den C64 erwähnt. Ich suche weiter Informationen und eine Bezugsmöglichkeit.

If the seller is not an AV shop, likely they are clueless on how to ship a large (even a small) #CRT but this seems to be a good advice especially for a #Sony #PBM / #BVM

The tides in PBM Paramaribo SR SA

These are important esp. when you're doing any moves with boats & ships

I love piloting (large) boats, the waves feel great on Deck while they Rock the Boat

I saw only part of the #ModernMedicalMafia documentary. When they described how PBMs (pharmacy benefits managers) worked, I could see it was an example of #ChokepointCapitalism. It’s been pulled from #Amazon and #Vimeo, but it’s still on #YouTube. #PBM

People have died because they could no longer afford their medications, or they have to choose between rent and food and medication.
