@sil ah, the classic. Creating a solution and then looking for a problem for it. Basically admitting for it at a scale of billions of dollars of a product and even acknowledging how wasteful it is 😄 talk about looking stupid in the public

my #introduction post:

Ohoi hoi! My name is Sunie, I'm in my early fourties and I love videogames! I teach digital literacy to elementary school kids, introducing them to tech and coding. I also love playing music (guitar, drums, vocals), enjoy building models (Gundam, wood kits) and tinkering with all sorts of hardware and software projects (3d printing, Raspberry Pi, Open Hardware solutions). Dog person, cat parent.

This is awesome. A pretty large collection of modern high quality #ZXSpectrum games in TAP format, and proceedings go to #Movember charity. A must have for #speccy fans IMO.

Movie piracy is bad. That's why I want to know the best sites to block so I live free of sin.

I used to block dopebox.to, but since it doesn't work the way I want, I no longer need to block it.

What other good sites are there that I should block or whatever?

@nixCraft hm, while I'm totally supporting this endeavor, running downloaded powershell scripts as admin makes my security spidey senses very uneasy!

@alice also note that guitars online is a lottery, especially with cheap ones: you might find a great piece and a terrible piece from the exact same series at a similar price: cheap guitars may be often good, but they are highly inconsistent in quality

@alice how I would approach this today:
- go to a guitar shop. The bigger the better
- try out some nice expensive models. The more the better. Try to find out what "feels" good, the warmth lf the wood, the feel of the neck etc.
- then try out guitars in your budget constraints, most notably Squier and Epiphone. It's likely you'll find something very close. Don't go by model but by individual pieces, they vary in quality even within the same series
- take someone experienced with you if possible

European Commission Nov 17

On this day, 36 years ago, the #VelvetRevolution began.

Students gathered in Prague and demanded more democracy.

A peaceful movement that changed the course of history — and still inspires Europe today.
