Off Topic / Re: Halloween Candy - What's your fav?
« Last post by smarmar on Thu, 04 December 2025, 22:37:00 »
Anything chocolate-based is my jam: Hershey's, 3 Musketeers (love that nougat :p), M&Ms.

I've spent my entire life trying to like candy corn, but it never worked. I haven't eaten one in years. I gave up, and I'm better for it.

I've always been drawn more to Easter candy than Halloween, probably because everything is chocolate. And the Cadbury's Cream Eggs! Best candy ever made.

I didn't seriously start listening to The Smiths until about fifteen years ago, but I was familiar with their hits during the '80's. Listening to them today, I'm transported back to that time and something about their sound makes me ache to recapture that time.  :(

If throat cancer was a song, this is what it would sound like. But seriously, there are some great musical changes in this song.

Every one of their albums have at least two bangers. Here's one.

Firmware Update:
The converter enables NKRO feature on USB HID now.

It seems that many of PC-9800 keyboards have ability of NKRO. I didn't know that.

Humans are just plain weird.
Not sure if this fits the thread, but I have an acquaintance who speaks in a general American accent but will use a British accent on a seemingly-random word. Like, when saying "can't" he'll pronounce the "a" as the "o" in "hot". He's in his early-mid twenties, so maybe he's still acclimating to his vocal chords.  :p
this has nothing to do with British English
What would you say that it is, then? Just a quirk, maybe? The way he pronounces some words sounds British to my ears.

WOW.. did you see that?

Another cyberpunk-inspired 3d-looking-side-scroller-puzzle-game? Yes, please! This looks fantastic. Reminds me of the old Flashback and Out of This World games for the Sega Genesis.

Housings are compatible with standard 1.2 mm plates.
Do the housings fit 1.5mm plates? or only 1.2mm?

Only fit 1.2mm plate!

I had reported doctors I had had three years ago to the Swedish medical authority, and got the outcome today: Absolutely nothing.
Apparently, a doctor is allowed to ignore life-threatening symptoms with no repercussions, if they feel like it, for example as in my case if you whine too much about having cancer and they think you are a loser.

Never mind that it is now chronic and incurable (but latent), and the weakened immune system had allowed a secondary cancer to form which left me with no colon and a permanent ostomy. Never mind the emotional damage.
