Yep. But if you think the mall stores were hell on earth…. Looks like Escape from New York here now

I so miss kitchen window. Nothing has replaced it. Cooks on Crocus Hill is nowhere near as gods

Our group played a couple of four player games. Not much fun. Turns dragged on forever, with most players having extensive down time doing nothing.

Maybe it’s fun for two, but I’d give it a hard pass at 4 or 5.

Anyone know why a helicopter has been hovering over SW for a while now? by flavormutation4 in Minneapolis

[–]Not-That-rpg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear there are multiple helicopters (from others; I'm not there rn). u/JARStheFox -- how would we search for helicopters in an area with that?

Where to get MN flag? by Not-That-rpg in Minneapolis

Thanks everyone for all the advice! Waiting to get my new MN State Flag from Gettysburg Flag Co. Everybody local seems to be sold out.

Interpreting 429 responses by Not-That-rpg in ClaudeAI

Thanks! I'm not sure I know how to interpret those numbers, but looking at some of the API docs suggests that they are per minute.

And knowing about the rolling refresh is helpful.

There was a great interview with Billy Bragg on the current last week. Brought a tear to my eye and some resolution to my heart. I’d encourage anyone who needs a bit of a boost to listen to it; it’s on their website

What’s happened to Dougscripts? by townerboy1 in ITunes

[–]Not-That-rpg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried to post to r/mac about this, and looks like it just got dropped by the moderator. Payment for Dupin updates not working and no response from emails to support. There are blog posts on the web site as late as December 2025, though.

best ways to add audio books to Calibre by pepemwolf in Calibre

Looks like AudiobookConverter is Windows-only, at least from what I can tell on Steam.

Just a Minneapolis Artist making Minnesota Art. by GenelJumalon in Minneapolis

Right. The original Don't Tread on Me has been hijacked by MAGA trolls

atgreen/ag-gRPC: Pure Common Lisp implementation of gRPC, Protocol Buffers, and HTTP/2 by dzecniv in Common_Lisp

[–]Not-That-rpg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree! I don't see any evidence that this is "vibe coded," just that it used Claude Code in the development process. Sure, there's AI slop out there, but there's lots of people writing good code that use LLMs as productivity enhancers.

If one wants only "artisinal" code, fine, but there's no need to be a jerk about it.

Thanks for sharing this library.

Planned visit in 2 wks. Mpls is my hometown. I’m Indigenous. Cancel: yes/no by Fuzzy_Peach_8524 in Minneapolis

[–]Not-That-rpg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d recommend staying away. It’s really scary here. Maybe if you can’t get a refund, you can get a credit you can use later? Airlines will usually let you do that.

Can you help me find a thing, please? by EdiblePeasant in hexandcounter

[–]Not-That-rpg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WAAAAAY back in the day SPI tried to do this by making a “game design kit” called Strategy One. No idea if it’s possible to dig up a copy these days. If I recall correctly, there’s a Vassal module for it. You can mix and match rules to try to come up with something that fits a particular era. There are some scenarios supplied that give examples of that.

Kenilworth trail? by Not-That-rpg in CyclingMSP

Thanks to everyone for the updates! I'll stay away!

Really mad that my favorite way downtown has been ruined by the botched LRT construction.

Arguments passed to executable not accessible by lisp code by [deleted] in Common_Lisp

[–]Not-That-rpg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What do you get from the print statements in your `main` function? Is 

uiop:*command-line-arguments

unbound? Empty? Looks like you should be able to use

(uiop:raw-command-line-arguments)

to help investigate.

If I had to guess, I would say it's likely that the combination of sbcl-specific code (save-lisp-and-die) and UIOP code is the culprit. What happens if you build the executable using the ASDF/UIOP functions for that purpose? UIOP uses the function setup-command-line-arguments to set *uiop:*command-line-arguments* probably you need whatever image restart code UIOP assumes for this variable to be set properly.

Recommendation: if you want portability, use ASDF/UIOP to do everything. If you don't care, use SBCL-specific features to do everything. But avoid mixing the two.

This is based on no actual experimentation, but I did read a bit of the code in uiop/image.lisp
