I love this artwork.

That is a fun fact about it, thanks!

After living and working in that red-zone... totally nailed the caption. Beautiful and hot.

Finding some conclusive supporting material about the (as yet unsolved) Yoynich Manuscript.

Either, enough information to decode a possible cypher, or proof that it is an elaborate troll/hoax/joke.

Could be the 'Rosetta Stone moment' of the modern era.

I agree, I thought about it

[-] ace_garp@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I like that era too.

Aztec(1976) came up recently, and I was very much considering getting it, due to the in-depth detail in these Technology Connections videos. Not sure if the gameplay is any good though.

Medieval is fun, launching cows and all.

The original ST:TNG was great also.

One of the tables at this tournament was Walking Dead too!, unforgiving table angle.

I own no pins at home, except toy size Batman battery operated(Funrise with the ramps)

My top table is Banzai Run (2 games in 1 ;-), can 7x replay

I like Attack from Mars(and just a little less Revenge from Mars).

The original Indy:Pinball Adventure is an all time favourite and one of the first I played(as long as the flippers have enough kick to score jackpots and reach the Path of Adventure).

If I got a table, it would be Judge Dredd.

Grew up only playing 80s/90s video arcade machines. Appreciated pinball later, especially the analog aspect and finding out about basic moves like lane-transfers.

My nonpro-tip: Read the info-card for the word multiball! (c:

Alternatively, a program that is a wrapper for your entire browser/device, that observes video and audio, to automatically carry out the blanking/muting.

Ads load as normally, but are never seen or heard by the user.

Theoretically, an air-gapped system that is worn on the head, rather than installed to the device would be undetectable.

An AR vision headset that detected known-ad-signatures and could blank or replace ads in realtime, with targetted noise-cancelling to 'mute' specific ad audio, could surgically remove ads from any media(billboard, magazine, video, radio, webpage).

Kind of like reverse-Snowcrash augmentation.

This video shows what is possible after a teardown, and yellowing-removal with 12% hydrogen peroxide solution.

If you are worried about making the plastic brittle, just follow the cleaning with soapy water part.

Know your enemy.

This video is an interesting behind-the-scenes look into the capabilities and senses of each different enemy in the 1993 videogame DooM.

  • Bonus content and nostalgia:

A look at where consumer available FPS began with Maze Wars+ (1987)

Maze Wars+ was the first experience of a networked-multiplayer-graphical-game for many people, and completely mindblowing for the era.

I remember there being no text or speech, some fire-extinguishers sprayed all over the place, someone hunting with a bow and arrow across an office desk.

It was in a step-by-step airliner-safety-card style of art.

First saw this about 10 years ago on some other site.
