Is there anyone who has ever gotten the customizer on Thingiverse to work? There are a few models I’d like to examine and change up, but nothing I have ever tried has worked.

MacOS/Windows, many different browsers, nothing.

I don’t think I *get* Victoria 3.

I played my very first game, turned Sweden into a global trading super-power. Granted, my degree is (basically) in international trade, but it seemed very straightforward to guide your country, no matter how small to begin with, to success.

I just received an email from E*Trade with the subject line: “Cryptocurrency 101”

I was very disappointed that it contained content. I was looking for a one-word, plain text email that said “don’t”

@cabinet20 if I just wanted to try it out, what is the minimum buy in? It looks like $45 to pick a ship?

@cabinet20 I’m genuinely curious, if you don’t mind saying, how much money do you have in Star Citizen right now? The website makes it difficult IMO to figure out what the real cost is to participate. You obviously think it’s worth it and enjoy the game.

Wow. Seeing a lot of complaining about the holding call that sealed the deal for the Chiefs.

Seeing nary a mention of the “fumble that wasn’t” that ALSO would have sealed the deal for the Chiefs.

Simple fact of the matter is that the human errors of officials even out in the long run, and instant replay is nothing but an excuse for TV to run more commercials. The game (every game?) was better without it.

This year, a 30-second Super Bowl ad costs $7 million.

The average K-12 public school lunch debt is about $22,600.

To Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis' point, the cost of that Jesus ad could pay off the lunch debt of 310 schools.

As Christians, we need to walk the walk. This ad isn't walking.

Is the Wealdstone match tomorrow streamable in the United States?

I never really imagined a world in which I would need to mute the name of a video game.

@courtney@mstr.cloud Hi Courtney, found your blog post about hosting your own Mastodon instance. Sounds like you would recommend it, even though I’m not a sysadmin type. About how much time do you spend per week on hosting activities?

Looking for a Mastodon server to move to. I don’t read Local/ Federated streams very often, so I’m not hugely worried about the “hub for topics I’m interested in” aspect.

I’d like:
• Reliable
• Likely to still exist two years from now
• Markdown/longer post/editing support

Suggestions?

Owner of the Jets asked about Aaron Rogers -

“Imagine how good our defense will be with a quarterback who is actually doing it [his job]”

Ouch. That’s going to leave a mark.

Disappointing result, but nice hearing the studio announcers talk about how bright the future is for

Both teams are likely to be promoted. Wrexham’s prospects described as “strong” in League Two. Sheffield described as “screwed” in the Premiership.

It’s totally irrational how happy I am to be watching FC Cup match live on TV.

I know the show was emotional manipulation to make me into a fan.

It worked.
