Heh, over twenty years already! I really miss those times.

Life was way better back then... wish I could go back and live it again.

Bastard laws of the universe seem to prevent that, but there is one thing they couldn't stop me bringing back...

I don't suppose that explosion of fireworks earlier was you...?

...this place is overdue a spike in new posts.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals!

It looks like there's more game mechanics involved now, or is my memory bad?

What sort of time investment is involved?

So, Google passed Wave on to Apache, where it took three years of going nowhere before Apache retired it.

The Spanish-based Comunes Collective tried to do something with it in Kune but activity there seems to have stalled too.

Oh well.

I miss having a mobile with a physical keyboard.

Spore was massively disappointing and a huge let down, but some people are working on an attempt to fix its failures with Thrive.

I've not tried it, and currently only the Microbe stage is playable, but it's under active development so worth keeping an eye on.

\o/ That's the spirit.

I'm alive!

Asleep far too often, but not yet found the need for a phylactery.

Round here we call that a job. (Though I do wish the entertainment aspect wasn't because laughing is preferable to crying. )


There has to be a way to run Android in a VM with fake GPS/sensors so I can write a script to play the game for me, without actually going anywhere.

I don't watch much any more but yeah - whether it's an episode every night or just as and when I feel like it, it's much more enjoyable and easier to get into compared to being drip-fed half an hour a week.

Hah, I remember when you could tell a text message was about to arrive because speakers would make a noise!

I have external audio because the headphone jack broke and muted the internal audio - still was a long time of wiggling it just so to get a connection until I finally got it.

My next upgrade will probably be a new mouse - my Logitech G500s has started dropping connection momentarily then reverting to a different profile, and it's getting frequent enough to be a nuisance.

So is it actually more than a buggy version of Ingress for kids?
