The current version of Peggle is utterly unplayable, monetised trash.

However, I recently dug out a first gen iPod touch that hasn't been connected to the internet in ~15 years, it's got 1 game on it, og Peggle.

It's gained a new lease of life as a standalone peggle console and I love it.

ingredients to a recipe may well be subject to copyright, which is why food writers make sure their recipes are "unique" in some small way. Enough to make them different enough to avoid accusations of direct plagiarism.

E: removed unnecessary snark

Not sure how long it's been since you saw the movie but it starts and ends with a much older Rose in the modern era, on board a research vessel out looking for the wreck of the Titanic. While aboard she starts telling the story of her time on the Titanic, that story then becomes the rest of the film. There's a sort of epilogue at the end where she wraps it up, then passes away in bed.

I think that's what OP is talking about.

Given that monitors tend to be wider than they are high, can't see how this is a win tbh. Unless you're going vertical monitor, then it's the same real estate right?

E: words E2: I reread, if you can find that add-on I'd love to know what it is.

I will look at this but I never have more than 4 tabs open so...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yeah, I didn't really think you had that many tabs open in one window. But it was funny to think someone might have done that. Think how small they'd be!

Each tab must have been one micron wide, how did you even expect to be able to click on a specific one in the future with that many open - wait, I think I've answered my own question.

Woman in front seems to be in actual distress - like that's how I imagine I'd look if a portal to hell opened up in front of me and some unspeakable horror sloughed out.

Oh that's a good one! It's like that thing about any headline ending in a question mark can be answered with "no".

Which it turns out, after fact checking myself, is called Betteridge's Law of Headlines

Does it have to be sign? What about a chat app?

I can highly recommend their cookbook if you're into cooking. Their chicken ruby is probably one of the greatest things I've ever put in my face.

They call it chicken ruby but it's basically a butter chicken/tikka masala.

 

What kind of threshold should a vote have to pass before being implemented? Do we really want to be making changes based on a vote that only got one "Aye"? Ten Ayes? Over 50% of the user base?

What kind of vote engagement can we reasonably expect to achieve? Is it actually likely that 50% of the user base will engage with any particular vote? Are there any useful presidents out there?

Who should be responsible for counting the votes when they're over? Perhaps the OP tallies the votes and edits the post?

Is there an easy test the mods can apply to a tallied vote to allow them to check whether it's passed? Something that is not open to interpretation and results in a clear directive to make a change?

I'm also kind of testing out this discussion format as a way of generating things to vote on i.e DISCUSSION > POLL > VOTE seems to make sense.

We'll see :)
