@kescusay well, I have a few ideas:

1. The Amiga came with a bunch of floppies, including some which were magazine demo disks, some of which haven’t been archived anywhere online from what I can tell so I’m definitely going to back those up.
2. Play some of the games that came with it, such as SimCity and the port of Dragon’s Lair II.
3. Make some music with ProTracker.
4. I might actually try to write a game for it since there’s a lot of documentation specifically about C programming for it and that’s something I have a lot of experience in.

@thouartfrugal luckily it did in-fact come with an A520 modulator! Saves me a lot of potential headache.

@TheGoonch yet another article that’s functionally the same as a police report with absolutely nothing to add.

@AncientFutureNow awesome! It’s great to see local music on here!

@punkisundead absolutely opposed to it. From my experiences in the local activist scene which tends to emphasize left unity, it’s especially shitty as an anarchist to be talked down because of my issues with tons of hierarchy and abuse in those orgs because “we’ve gotta have left unity”. The only solution I can think of is to split off and commit to anarchist principles, knowing that it will alienate many.

@kescusay @AncientFutureNow I’m personally more annoyed about people (including on occasion the cops themselves) who drive and park right in the middle of the bike lane. Seems to mostly be a problem around Dave’s Hot Chicken, likely because they have curbside pickup even though the building is surrounded by bike lanes so there’s no real curb to speak of.

Either way, I’m not so sure that arresting people would be particularly helpful for either problem. There’s got to be another way, somehow.

@kescusay perhaps then, a larger effort must be made to encourage people on the Eugene sub to migrate, either to Emerald Social (from where they can join) or to Lemmy

@bamfic i know, right?!

@kescusay aw man that really sucks. Let us know if there’s anything we as a community can do to help :)

@kescusay thankful that I don’t have one lol

@magnetmagician @eugene hmm that would make sense. I haven’t taken a look up there recently so idk what it’s like up there

@AncientFutureNow I have no idea. It seems like it was a one-off event

@bamfic I would argue instead that it really doesn’t matter what people do. The decision to close the hospital has already been made and probably won’t be reversed. Starting from the assumption that no action will do anything for this, why should it matter what people do regarding this, as long as it’s not hurting anyone?

(Okay I’ll get off my soapbox now lol)

@kescusay that seems like a great idea. Maybe also converting all the ugly parking lots into new affordable and/or free housing would be good too, as unrealistic as that would be

@kescusay I imagine it would be better to have a separate community just for reposting from the subreddit. That way those who actually are fine with the noisiness can follow it, and those who aren’t can choose not to do so.

@kescusay What actual proposed legislation was this anyways?

@letsmakeafriendship I just abstained because I didn’t feel like I got the full picture. Still don’t have it

@letsmakeafriendship I would love to see even more spending on cycling infrastructure. We’re already a pretty good city for cycling (we’re no Amsterdam, but pretty amazing by US standards) but why not throw more money at it?

@kescusay
Yet another reason to get these death machines off the streets. There’s no reason people should have to have metal boxes that can very easily injure or even kill people.
