I learned Ian's Secure Knot because sometimes you get shoe laces that are slippery and never stay tied. The secure knot is way better than doing a double knot as you can easily untie it.
I also visit the site right after buying new shoes or boots and look up lacing patterns and pick something fun. I'm currently using Spider Web lacing.
Just played the NES Contra yesterday for the first time in probably over a decade. Still can beat it first try although I did have to use a couple of continuous on stage 4. I'm so used to not dying that I forgot where to find the good weapons. But for stages 5-8 I still had all the muscle memory of where to shoot and when that I developed as a kid.
Oh that's interesting. About a week or maybe 2 ago I got a pretty big Firefox mobile update. The entire UI was overhauled. Have you experienced that yet?
I'm very interested in this and will try it out. There was another connection manager that the author posts on Lemmy, but the memory usage was very high due to the amount of docker containers used. A quick glance showed no requirement for docker. The ssh port forwarding could be a very useful feature for my work right now.
The exercise bit is so important. I'm mid 40s recently started working out with weights again after about 6 years of being somewhat sedentary other than running/walking dogs. Almost instantly I had worked out some pain my shoulder had been giving me that had been preventing me from sleeping well, and I don't grunt when getting up from a crouched position anymore. Also just feeling better and more capable all around.
This is a really neat and well written list of games. It's so interesting how different these games were from the console games at the time. So many live acted sequences with pre rendered backgrounds. The only game I knew of beforehand was Phantasmagoria, but Dark Seed was ringing a bell. Perhaps a friend had that one. I might have to try some of these games.
You can also easily switch to Waterfox.
