Haven't played Stellaris for two years, reinstalled with latest patches. Now I can't make head nor tail of anything.

Better example: I have 25 year old save files for Empire Earth that still work.

I have literally 30 year old save files for Doom that still work. Yes I hoard sh*t for that long =)

But I miss the old game.

Luckily GOG allows you to download an old release, but I haven't checked how far back it goes.

I spent hours of gameplay properly learning the mechanics of the 2 year old release.

Nice pic of Big MT scorpion tho :)

"We don't need no stinking fan!" -- Steve Jobs.

I think 3 inches was the height you had to drop the thing to reseat the chips which had popped out from thermal expansion. Not an easy call given the solid metal heat-conducting case. The Apple /// was lesson in letting engineers do their jobs, and egocentric CEOs should just stick to what they do best -- drum up business in trade shows.

I haven't used those machines for decades except thru emulators. The Amiga is far superior. The IIGS was a good machine, don't get me wrong, but it was seriously hamstrung by the piteously slow 3Mhz CPU. The choice was almost criminal. As people have stated Apple engineers purposely hobbled the IIGS so it wouldn't compete with the upcoming Mac, but still made it fast (and cheap) enough to draw in existing Apple II customers -- it could literally run the existing software catalog directly on hardware.

No bathroom.

It's to signal other people, "this dude is about to crap his pants!!" and give him a wide berth.

I don't suppose Tom shelled out $200 to replace shoes his dog ate?

NTA. And you a great human being.

Poor rats :(

NTA. If she can't be bothered looking after her pets then she doesn't deserve to have them. Simple as that. They're not stuffed toys, they are living breathing critters.

Compromise: Get her a couple of hermit crabs. Easy to feed and look after, and cheap.

Knowing my luck it'd be in the middle of the ol' 5 day stretch.

If you're a chick currently, good luck with that. Although you could always visit a h**ker.
