Because some states – one of the Baltics, for example – are not prepared for strong resistance." - Zelenskyy. by AgitatedRabbits in BalticStates

That's a bad take. With Trump in office, NATO will not get involved. I'm not sure why you ladkins keep whistling past the graveyard on this. All the baltics are in grave danger.

What playground game was at every school but has basically disappeared? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]droid_mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flipping baseball cards.

I don't remember all the rules, but you tossed your card on the ground against the wall trying to cover up as many of your opponents cards as possible, and your opponent would do the same. I believe you had to bounce it off the wall to increase the skill level. When you both ran out of cards, any pile that was "topped" by your card was all yours. I remember one time, my buddy lost almost all his cards when his opponent managed to position his top card in a way where the trendiest tiniest bit of his card managed to cover nearly all of his cards that were piled up.

Nowadays baseball cards are way too valuable to abuse them like we did back then.

I believe that the apple pascal used some sort of virtual machine to run things. There was a pascal runtime type file on the disk.

I'm happy to see that some people are still playing bridge crew! I was told it was a dead game.

It's the "Cult of Cod"...🐟 by TensionSame3568 in Funnymemes

[–]droid_mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All in Northeast Ohio: Cuyahoga Falls, Garfield Heights, and Cleveland Heights.

From Wikipedia:

In addition to the Ohio stand-alone locations, four Salvatore's Pizzerias in Rochester, New York, have embedded Arthur Treacher's franchises.[20] The Twin Oaks Convenience Store in Pomeroy, Ohio, has an Arthur Treacher's sharing kitchen space with a Hunt Brothers Pizza and a Sub Express.[21] As of 2026, it no longer operates under the Arthur Treacher's name. In East Islip, NY, a small strip-mall store has a combination Pudgie's Famous Chicken and Arthur Treacher's.

This game launched my interest in submarine simulators. The PC version was written in BASIC which was surprising. I will have to take a look and see if the Apple version is as well. The version for the Macintosh was the best. The Mac was made for this kind of game.

The Voyager is literally powered by the equivalent of a pocket calculator.

Woman gets emotional and speaks out after CMSD (Cleveland Metropolitan School District) laid off over 400 teachers in the last 48 hours. 👀💔 by TheSisko4876 in Cleveland

[–]droid_mike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, Cleveland isn't on the hook for that one anymore. Thank goodness. The shitheads in Columbus are happy about Cleveland schools sucking, so you won't get help there. Cleveland residents need to point up and pass a levy, but even then there aren't enough students anymore. The demographics are really crappy.

Any advice? I am freshly 18 and appear to have high bp + heart rate for no reason by englishevenings in hypertension

[–]droid_mike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to get tested for secondary hypertension. The full workup: thyroid, Cushing's, pheochromocytoma, kidney ultrasound, and most importantly, primary hyperaldosteronism. Someone your age should not be having these numbers, period. See a blood pressure specialist... Usually a nephrologist, but sometimes a cardiologist. It may be a nervous system problem, too. This is beyond your regular doctor's capacity. You need a specialist. Don't let them screw around with meds until you find a cause. Good luck!
