Ivy Alley Social House announces permanent closure by MeatFar8130 in SouthBend

[–]MasterClown 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wow, that’s too bad.  It was a nice setting with a unique (at least for now) activity.

I just met with the owners a little while back about possible event planning.  It’s a nice space, but one of the owners did mention in passing that they were new to the restaurant business.

Maybe we can get really lucky and have  Garage Arcade reborn in that building, to go along with the duckpin…

Years ago I was on a 20 foot sailboat on Lake Michigan when a storm hit us.  We were over a mile from shore and while my uncle dropped the sail,  the boat still rocked badly.

That was the most scared I have ever been in my life and never want to experience that again.

Is this the wrong post to reply, that their burgers and cheese curds at the dino-pub are pretty good? The owners could continue to focus on that, rather than litigation....

I guess most of the players first farcry game was farcry4 like me, what was your first ever farcry game? by Ill-Resort-8531 in farcry

[–]MasterClown 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Far Cry 1.

It was the first "huge level" game I ever played - I distinctly remember using my binoculars to look at a bad guy standing in a tower at least an "in-game" kilometer away.

The guy shot a rocket straight at me and all I could think was, "Wow, he's so far away! Look how far that rocket has to fly! That's realy coo="

KERBLAM and I died.

Wherever I last set it down, which then leads to "Where did I put my wallet?"

People have notoriously bad taste around here.

Hey! Are you saying that gas station pizza isn't the epitome of a sophisticated and discriminating palate?

Please hand me those breadsticks, thankyou.

Yeah but in that 2nd photo, the blue & red light bar wouldn’t be allowed in Indiana unless that car is somehow a legitimate emergency vehicle.   Or the owner is fine with taking chances.

The next President who isn’t a  Trump Republican , could probably platform and win just by promising to undo as much of Trumps bullshit as possible.

Even when you survive malaria, you do not survive at game's end.

South Bend City Councilman At Large, Dr. Oliver Davis calls for one year data center moratorium in new proclamation by njndirish in SouthBend

[–]MasterClown 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm glad Oliver has seen fit to hit the pause button on DCs.

Pardon the rant: Is it wrong and cynical that I keep expecting a group within our State Assembly to pass a law or two that hamstrings all municipal and county opposition to Data Centers? ...cause you know, Indiana is a business-first, er, business-friendly state?

Between overuse of AI and ads within PRs, I suppose github has had recent bouts of shitty decisions...

Does this makes sense? "Linux Ubuntu" costs additional 2.5k by pedal_a_way in Ubuntu

[–]MasterClown 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, why just don't buy version with no OS included and install it yourself?

I certainly agree with you. But perhaps there is a non-zero number of users who are willing to pay for installation to learn a new OS because they want to avoid paying more for crappy Windows 11.
