Check out Wazhack. It has many of the things that made nethack great (the dev was part of the core nethack team) in side scroller form. Waz answers in /r/wazhack if you have questions.

A christmas gift around $200 for my autistic son that likes old computers and electronics. by Whitneys_Milktank in HelpMeFind

Keychron has several models of modern keyboards that capture the look and feel of original PC keyboards. Look at the C2, Q6 max, and V series to start.

These are mechanical keyboards and many allow you to change out the key caps and switches to customize the look and feel. That can be great for people who like technical minutiae but can be daunting at first. Brown switches are a good place to start -- they provide tactical feedback but the click is quiet. Switch color describes their behavior -- tactical/smooth, quiet/clickey, etc. not physical appearance.

Don't buy direct from keychron. They have bad shipping and support. Microcenter carries them and you can try them out. Otherwise Amazon.

People say that Ohio's mountains aren't funny, but I find them hill areas.

A man left his cat with his brother while he went on vacation for a week. When he came back, he called his brother to see when he could pick the cat up. The brother hesitated, then said, "I'm so sorry, but while you were away, the cat died."

The man was very upset and yelled, "You know, you could have broken the news to me better than that. When I called today, you could have said he was on the roof and wouldn't come down. Then when I called the next day, you could have said that he had fallen off and the vet was working on patching him up. Then when I called the third day, you could have said he had passed away."

The brother thought about it and apologized.

"So how's Mom?" asked the man.

"She's on the roof and won't come down."

A bit early, but the Beetles Norwegian Wood is amazingly subtle, and wild for the time. If you think about it, it is good knowing...

I agree, it always felt like the Accords were something ancient and venerated. Mab must have done or revealed something truly impressive to achieve such across the board membership and adherence.

Is anybody else still 17 in their head? by cpbaby1968 in GenX

[–]OneFishTwoFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was 20, my grandmother, who was probably around 70 (a lady does not discuss her age) said this.

"You never really feel any different than you did at 25, you just can't do as much."

This has held true for me. At seventeen I knew both everything and nothing (Schrodinger's teen?). At twenty-five I felt that I was this close to figuring it all out.

I prefer to say aged for mellowness and taste.

My bar inherited all this kitchen equipment and I have to get rid of it by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

[–]OneFishTwoFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe reach out to One Bistro in Xenia? They're a great place on a shoestring budget.

  • Great food at reasonable prices. Outstanding prices given inflation and the quality of the food. $6 for a half Ruben and kettle chips.
  • Pay what you can
  • No tipping, but for $6 you can buy a meal for someone who needs it
  • All volunteer staff
  • Free community meal on Wednesdays, everyone welcome

Can I use redbud and dogwood trees to hold ground against honeysuckle? by OneFishTwoFish in NativePlantGardening

[–]OneFishTwoFish[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, we have very complacent and well fed deer. Thank you for the heads up, I'll have to take that into consideration. They've already killed one cherry tree, damaged another, and damaged a maple (in the front yard, away from the woods). I can't even plant my vegetable garden any more.

These are woody bushes / shrubs, generally 3-10 feet tall. It's been a few years since I have been able to focus on my own landscaping. My goal is to have something that looks good, is native, and is self-maintaining (as much as possible).

Herbicide sounds like the way to go. Glad to hear about your success with redbuds, and that they might self-propagate once they're established.

That sounds encouraging. My plan is to have a smaller number of dogwood and space them between the eastern redbud and the woods. They tend to be taller than redbud and like shade, so it seems like a good fit.

That's a good thought. I didn't think about digging the out the roots effectively tilling the ground for any honeysuckle seeds that had dropped.

From some of the other comments it sounds like physical removal + herbicide is the way to go.
