LRT: Datel Electronics were AMAZING folks. In the US, we had a GameShark labeleed PAR, and there wasn't much you could do other than put in codes. When I found out that Datel had a "Pro Comms Link" for making your own codes, I talked with them about using it on a Game Shark.

They didn't just tell me how to flash the software to turn it into a Pro Action Replay, but sold me the Pro Comms Link, and eventually printed many of the codes I'd come up with (mostly for ESPN Xtreme Games and 3D LEmmings for PSX).

Virginia GOP banning fiction novels about slavery because they’re allegedly traumatic to white kids but renaming their schools to Confederate terrorists despite their documented trauma on Black kids, aren't protecting children or education, they're protecting white supremacy.

Six months after it suffered a serious brain injury and after months of mind-boggling ultra-long-distance surgery, the Voyager 1 spacecraft walked and talked at full data rate today!

After transmitting a full memory readout on Friday at 40 bps, Voyager 1 switched to the science-mode 160 bps rate, which presumably the DSN site at Goldstone was able to receive and decode today.

Congrats and kudos to all who made it happen.

Gamelan V in the original ⬅️ and remastered ➡️ versions of #StarTrekTNG's "Final Mission". The original planet was replaced by a new one for the remastering of the episode. The new planet has darker blue oceans and a realistic cloud cover.

Picard management tip: If you don't know what the hell you're doing, fake it until you do.

I miss "shit closest to what I am actually attempting to purchase" being a sort option on amazon search.

Pizza can't fix my problems, but it absolutely can make me feel okay for 5 minutes.

Going to the restroom for a trans woman can be so anxiety inducing. I know for me it can be anyway. All I wanna do is get in and get out without any issues, hassles or problems.

But I had something happen while I was at lunch with my mother in-law that was rather affirming as a woman. It’s the opposite of what I’ve imagined could happen to me going to the women’s restroom.

I was washing my hands when a woman about my age came out of the other stall. She looked at me, straight in the face and asked if I could zip up the back of her dress. She didn’t even wait for a response. She just turned around and pulled up her hair. Then said, “It’s so hard to do this by yourself. So much easier when you have help. Thanks.”

She didn’t see me as a predator. Didn’t see me as someone who shouldn’t be in there. She saw me as another woman who simply would understand the need to have help zipping up the back of her dress.

I almost started crying.

I, a trans girl, went into the women’s restroom and nothing happened, except for another woman asked for my help.

Some serious advice from someone that knows, and greatly wishes that they didn't: Say all the deep and meaningful things you've always wanted to say to someone while they are still able to receive them. It doesn't matter if it feels awkward. Find the right moment, but don't wait until that opportunity is taken away from you. The pain of regret is not worth it.

Considering USA’s claim to love individualism, they sure spend a lot of money and energy trying to make people conform, uniform, and be uninformed.

Virginia Gov. Youngkin, who has tried hard to style himself as a moderate, just vetoed a pair of bills that simply established that Virginians have a right to contraceptives, and health care providers have a right to provide contraceptives.

Republicans are 100% coming for contraceptives. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/20
