If memory serves that particular brown in recent manufacturing from Lego was known by the public over some time to have embrittlement issues, so probably not something you did to it, but something as of now that Lego has fixed on their end if you pick up that brown from a current set or from their stores.

My profile has my matrix name. I figured people have known that was a feature for lemmy profiles, but I guess that was my mistake.

Every section had missing downloads. But with some web inspection, I found some interesting obfuscation using what I think is JavaScript on the web pages that “used” to hold the download links, for the files that were requested to be removed. If we can figure out how to reverse the code to reveal the link again we could grab (assuming they are still on the server) the files manually.
If you want to chat about this I’m on matrix
I can confirm that the script still works, but sadly the site owner of Vim has removed the file from the server. The script sees a file link but will download nothing. When testing the script with just NES, it will see a game, but will throw an error of “remote files name has no length”, so going forward you could test via a vpn and see if they adjusted their files to be available via a country that doesn’t care, or they just haven’t gotten around to cleaning up their file directory list post removal.
P.S. the script showed that 23 field failed to download so one can assume those files were the one Nintendo decided to have them remove.
There is a bit of advise for actors/actresses from a director (forgot their name) where they said “if the only thing about you is that you are on time/early, and you are pleasant to work with, you will always find a job in acting. If you don’t care and lack punctuality, and are hard to work with or around (if necessary) then you will find fewer and fewer opportunities as time goes on.”
My server has movies ranging from 480p to 4k. Anything under 4k that is a movie shouldn’t be more than 2gb-3gb (this is also highly dependent on the movie in question, lotr movies can be huge so as long as it looks good I don’t mind, I have the space) when it comes to 4k movies it highly depends on the movie but I like to keep them below 10gb if I can.
When it comes to tv shows if it’s 1080p I expect long-form (1 hr) to be around 1-2gb. Less for shorter shows.
As far as bit rate and codecs are concerned keep things as simple as I can .h264 or .h265. My server doesn’t support AV1 so I can’t use that yet maybe in the future. .h265 high10 tends to make my server work too hard. I try to keep the bit rate on the low side as my server is a bit on the low end so a bit rate below 10mbps keeps the server happy and everything plays nice and snappy.
If you are getting a copy of the book and they say it’s from the hardback first edition or at least the hardback then you have a decent chance to find online resources that will tell you how many pages that particular edition had. If it’s a straight up epub from another source and not scans, then you could use some software to do a word comparison and see what the changes are/were between copies. Thankfully if it’s the book or series I think it is there were no abridged (shortening the book by removing parts that don’t contribute to the story) copies made that I’m aware of.
I feel like it’s a great time to pull up the 4k bluray and do a remaster screenshot, since we missed the 10-year anniversary.
I just want a smith or weapon smith to tell me why you would want a (depending on how to look at the sword) a double to single fuller or single to double fuller. I understand why a fuller exists, just not why you would want to switch. Is it to help move any blood away from the hands to account for issues with hands slipping?

When I was young (think middle school) I would read 3-4 books at a time. Not because I like the challenge but because I got bored or the book had larger or more complex words that I was not familiar with. So I would take a break from it and try another.
Nowadays I treat audiobooks the same as I did when I was young. I also read book I really want to read one at a time these days. I have liked savoring the story a bit more or reflecting on what I read a bit more than just trying to read the book, this has allowed me to get through books that when I was younger I would avoided for the slow pace.
Now if I truly detest a book for any number of reasons I will drop it. It doesn’t mean I won’t go back to finish it, but the best example is Wheel of time by Robert Jordan. I got to book 7 and I finally had, had enough. I just could not deal with the amount of groups he would switch between to tell his stories. The books and story aren’t bad, I just go tired of dealing with it.
Edits: for grammar and clarity.
I don’t have any wisdom tree NES cartridges, but I do have a few of the unlicensed carts. The ones I have, have a switch to adjust the amount of power used by the cart to fool the lockout chip.
I’m sorta, kinda, mostly illiterate, when it comes to what you are doing with adobe. Are you just installing like normal and then copy/paste the Adobe folder from the programs folder into a wine directory?
If you have a GBC I would recommend super Mario bros deluxe. gives you SMB and the Japanese SMB 2 along with a bunch of of unlockable QoL fun feature like time attack, save files, and a red coin challenge.
According to the cube rule (https://cuberule.com/) the hotdog is technically a sandwich and not a taco due to the bun only really being two parts of a whole.
I was always interested in the play but could only read people’s abbreviated Synopsis. I always felt that I needed to read the original. I attempted to learn Czech to do so, but always felt like I was missing something. The new translation will hopefully give me closure about being able to read and somewhat understand the author’s intent.
You can’t just say that, and not tell us. I want to celebrate with a cocktail in their honor.
Edit: Wait is it just fireball whiskey?
I waited to see if anyone mentioned it, but, POD. A old 1997 racing game from Microsoft built by Ubisoft. You can get the gold edition on GoG for rather cheap but I would absolutely love to see a remaster or remake. Unfortunately I would rather it not be made by Ubisoft as I don’t want to be forced into a separate account login setup from Ubisoft.
