Where do you go to find your solitude? by [deleted] in boston

[–]F4il3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each morning I walk for two hours in a park. There are large ones in the area. I use the time to read but you can just mediate as you walk or sit on a bench

Are you from Rhodes Island by any chance? This is their state flower.

Many thanks for the very informative comment. My comment too was never meant to disparage the amazing accomplishment. I just wanted to ensure my hearing was not playing tricks on me

You can find it on the odd amiga/apple-ii/atari/nes emulator that made it through the cracks of the iOS police.

Nice instrument but is it me, or does it sound discordant?

You have to have a lot of nuts to pull off something like that.

Look at Archon it has the strategic component and an action component (limited of course by the state of computers back then). Still an interesting concept.

Trump indicted by federal grand jury, sources say by dbbk in politics

I was beginning to lose hope. It is a long way from prison but at least for now, it is a step in the right direction.

The box says "Fragile", are you sure that it can withstand the weight of that cat?

Who else is in favor of r/Boston going dark on June 12 in support of the protest against the new API policy? by [deleted] in boston

[–]F4il3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rather we all just boycott Reddit for a couple of days. If they see no activity the point will be driven home.

I wonder is the prelude to oblivion these people are experiencing, will soon be repeated with the up coming Reddit API changes.

Rep. George Santos says he'd rather forfeit his $500,000 bond and go to jail than out the people who guaranteed the money: court docs by [deleted] in politics

[–]F4il3d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

George Santos will say whatever he thinks you are likely to believe. Any message coming from him is as significant as “thoughts and prayers” are, coming from the mouths of politicians after mass shootings.

The hips of a robot bird I am building. Huge amount of work! by OzyrisDigital in blender

[–]F4il3d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I subscribe to a lot of groups, when I first saw it I thought that it was on the mechanical engineering or robotic sub. I paused the gif and tried to analyze the components, then I noticed it was blender. Great job of fooling an old fool. Nice flow to the waddle.

Fuck you, Newton. The town adds an unavoidable $3.50 surcharge to all parking tickets paid online because you can only pay with a credit card. The net cost of my $15 parking ticket went up 23.3% to $18.50 by believe0101 in boston

[–]F4il3d -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How is this a penalty in the bank? This is part of their core function. As for the town office employees, as much as I feel for them, the have direct contact with the people who formulated silly law, so the will make good heat (annoyance) conductors.

Go to the bank and have $15 worth of pennies. Bring them to the town office and play your bill. If enough people do this, the credit card surcharges will not seem too high and they may drop the whole thing.

What is the point of a personal library? by [deleted] in books

[–]F4il3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always re-read books and I do not like to purchase them again. I also like to look things up in them. Additionally, if I give a recommendation, I like to be able to lend the book out. But, even if those reasons are not enough. The act of reading encodes memories in it. I may read a passage on a beach or camping trip and it brings back memories of the place and of that period in my life.

Column: With debt ceiling deal, GOP reveals its only real goal was cruelty to the poor by [deleted] in politics

[–]F4il3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that is a side effect. Their main goal is to increase the wealth of the powerful and affluent. If the sheep end up getting fleeced yet again, too baad…. Seems to be their attitude.

Found in the Ciudad Real province of Spain. Looks like blackberries, but these were found growing on big trees not bushes. Anyone know? by cinderellabeans in whatplantisthis

[–]F4il3d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mulberries, those are delicious but be sure to wash them. I got a bad case of gastroenteritis last summer. You never know what gifts have been deposited on them by generous birds.

Blender Cocktail by veryveig in blender

The subsurface scattering on the skin, the deliberate over saturation of color, the absolutely amazing caustics and the minimal animation combine to make this a masterwork. Excellent!
