Were you at any time, the gamer who signed any of the countless vanity boards out there as either ASS or FUK?

Omega Race gets my vote for underrated game of its time. It immerses you, relies on reflex gaming, is pretty fair, and there are several strategies to employ of various success rates. If you're good at it, you can play for quite some time. Try it sometime on Mame, though realize the dial control of the game doesn't translate perfectly to keyboard. It took me some time adjusting the sensitivity to have an okay time.
Another great feature of Omega Race was that you could still control the ship to a degree in attract mode if you were out of quarters. If I remember right, you could at least control the thrust and weapons fire. It was a good way to get just a little more of your fix even if you were broke but still not ready to go home.
Oh, and amazingly, I found that the best home port ever for Omega Race was on the Commodore VIC-20 (need to see about getting Omega Chase Deluxe for my Vectrex to see how it compares). That was one of the most faithful renditions ever of the arcade version. And back when I was a big time classic video games collector, I discovered the best controller to use with it was the Starplex. Back when I had time to have my systems set up, that I totally kicked ass on Omega Race and several other games with that controller.
Always remember that your barista responsibilites change based on your field. As a former archaeologist, I cannot tell you how many nazis I killed while working at Starbucks.
Did you recommend the Lost Ark blend, with room for scream? I hear that one is quite the face melter, it's so hot.
and at only $0.25 for three ships, it was a bargain. The ship even had hyperdrive!
But did you manage to beat the scores of ASS and FUK? Or are you either ASS or FUK?
While checking out the video, I found myself realizing that it needed a soundtrack added. In particular, they should have added the sound effects from the original arcade version of Asteroids. That would have been awesome, and those forever top Asteroids champs ASS and FUK would have been so proud.
It doesn't "make sense" to have multiple grocery stores servicing the same area, the duplication is wasteful. Why have two barbershops servicing Ive neighborhood? It would be more efficient to have one
When there is stiff competition, the big winner is typically the customer.
Great, I just made myself hungry again...
Yeah, it is a twisted and convoluted system. That is for sure.
And thanks for giving me a Beavis and Butthead moment by your declaration that you anal and can twist and screw with the best of them. Huh-huhhuhhuhhuh...
I was thinking that sounded like these mayors are the result of interbreeding between Vogons and Ravenous Bugblatter Beasts.
From what I understand the primary way they can prosecute under the CFAA is a device is being used other then the manner in which it is intended.
If that device was a general purpose computer, then any task it is capable of performing can in no sensible way be classed as a use in a manner for which said general purpose computer was not intended.
Let me put it another way. If you tell a homeowner that their front door lock is unusually vulnerable to being picked, first of all they should sock you in the face for trying to pick their lock (before they call the police), and second you should not go publishing that information if they choose to not fix it.
Who says you actually tried to pick their lock. There is a decent chance that your house has the same make and model of lock that theirs does, and when you accidentally locked yourself out, you discovered how easy that particular lock was to pick. Wouldn't warning them about the risk be the right thing to do?
But we're always being told the criminals will grab the guns and use them against us.
So this is a win.
They will eventually, unless we can find a way to vote the entire lot out of office and start fresh with a team that does not involve either side of "The Party."
Always look over your shoulder because everyone is watching and plotting against you.
