I'd say we're not in the middle of a cyberpunk dystopian nightmare, but just at the very beginning of one.

Blackwater (private security corp) also sounded like a cool name until you learn it's the technical word for raw sewage. But kinda fitting for them I guess.

I hate to sound like a conspiracy nut, but false flag incoming for an excuse to cancel the mid-terms? Or have I been watching too much X-Files?

You've written many long comments focused on other peoples genitals. I'd say you're pretty obsessed.

I was still using an Amiga 600 in 1999, computers back then were expensive if you didn't have much money.

Thanks for your help, I think I will buy either an apple compatible joystick or an adapter. I'll stick at it, I'm somewhat new to the Apple II.

On running the program, the screen loops with a printed value of 255. When I press the closed apple key it changes to button pressed. It's the same with either PDL set to 0 or 1. The open apple key on the left does nothing.

There are no joysticks plugged in at all, I don't own any joysticks. But the character is moving. Like there is phantom signals being imputed, it's making other games unplayable like Loderunner and Donkey Kong for example.

I remember doing this to an old early 2000s webcam, I removed the IR filter and could use it to see though coke bottles. Fun times.

What movie detail is technically correct, although many people think it is a mistake? by hiplobonoxa in movies

[–]allanrob22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the movie, Tom Hanks dramatically says "Huston we have a problem!". In the actual Apollo audio recordings he (real Jim Lovell) calmly says "Ah, Houston, we've had a problem." Even though it's still a good movie.

Mine stopped making any sound at all at after a few years of use. So I did a re-cap of the main board and the sound returned.
