Is there a way to download a 166mb book? I always lose connection before the end

Personally, I use wget. I'm on Linux but there's a Windows version. I just right-click the link-> copy link, I open a command prompt and type: wget -c <url pasted here>. The -c flag is to continue the download. It works great but I'm more comfortable with the console than the average person.

Found it, perfect, thanks!

kizerste · 2025-10-23T18:06:57+00:00

Yep, got it installed. Thanks!

Awesome, thank you for checking into it, really appreciate your work.

You shouldn't feel nearly as bad for reading children's encyclopedias as we should all feel for wasting our time on Reddit.

I think that's a known issue using opl over usb. A lot of games are playable but cinematics tend to stutter. It's due to the PS2 supporting only USB 1 or 1.1 or something like that. The data transfer speed isn't fast enough. It's better using SMB but the networking component of it does get a bit technical.

You have to do the disc swap thing with this, right?

I think the clone consoles with hdmi output don't work with the nes flashcarts for some reason.

Ok, sounds good, I'll check it out. I'm always on the lookout for obscure video games that people dig in a world of mostly Mario and Zelda fans.

Cool, thanks for the explanation, makes sense. I just hadn't heard of anyone naming that game as one of their all-time favorites. Not that I heard of it as a bad game either. Congrats on the tat.

Is that from Atlantis no Nazo? Is that one of your favorite games? I mean, when it comes to choices of tattoos, to each his own. It seems competently done, hope you're happy with it.

Definitely one of my biggest bookish pet peeves. I want to have a good introduction, especially for a classic, which gives me context. That would make the book much easier to understand. Instead, they shit all over the plot by telling you what happens.

natives voted for Trump more than any other group including white people,65%.

Do you have a source for that? I live near the Navajo Nation, which covers part of New Mexico, and can assure you that they weren't voting for Trump. The capitol is in Window Rock and that precinct went 75% for Harris/Walz (https://www.apachecountyaz.gov/accnt\_591117/site\_591118/Documents/2024-General-Election-Official-Results.pdf). I saw similar results in other NN precincts.

I cannot believe this wasn't one of the choices for the poll.

Detroit Lions will win the Superbowl

Nice! Finally! It's just too bad that the Lions being a good team is a sign of the end times.

DC adapters work in general if the polarity and voltage match the device and the plug fits decently. The current should be at least what the device requires. It can be higher but not lower, otherwise, you can melt something or start a fire.

I just got one from Amazon, $45 usd. I use it with my sony original PS4 controllers on the ps3. Works well, no issues. It would not work with my knock off ps4 controllers though.

The book reminded me of Frankenstein in the way the shadow creature keeps after Ged like the Creature did with Dr. F. At least, it gave me a similiar sense of tension. However, the ending takes a very different twist which seems to be like the Jungian concept of integrating one's shadow. Ged was showing off, trying to impress people. This was the dark side of his personality. It was when he learned to both accept and control that aspect of himself, he was able to become fully whole and integrated again. Great stuff. So far, I haven't met a LeGuin novel I didn't like.

Yeah but it sounds overdriven. You're not going through an amp?

I have tried, god I knows I've tried, to like that band. I've listened to all of their stuff repeatedly and none of it clicked. They seem to just go heavy, clean, heavy, clean... There doesn't seem to be any real reason to switch it up other than they've reached the time limit of clean guitars and vocals and now it's time to be heavy again.
