so what's a good _academic_ Scheme text? I do not want any book that assumes the use of a particular hunk of software. I want something approximating a scientific text, not a programmer's EZ Guide sort of popular thing

public officials should be required to use public transit for all official movement

I have no idea what’s happening here, but it feels very #Cyberpunk

I succeeded in #writing almost 600 words tonight using nothing but ed(1), the same line editor Ken Thompson used to write the original Unix.

One sentence per line.
A blank line in between paragraphs.
No going back to edit previous lines.

We call ed(1) the standard Unix editor, but it might be better to call it the standard text composer.

"Snake oil" sounds about right for most of these new physical music formats tbh.

Open to suggestions for the type of things a locksmith/electrician/engineer/gunsmith/inventor would have in his truck in 1925.

So far:
-many tools
-bunch of half assembled locks and guns
-welding torch
-various sized chains and belts to hook things up to motors
-two or three small engines (Lawnmower through vacuum pump size)
-A couple of lead-acid batteries

Question: What is the best place to run play by forum/play by post genre these days? Thinking it is time to start DMing again but don't have a consistent enough schedule for a third weekly game.

Things I appreciate: Built in die roller, map support.

@Canageek I saw that too. I wonder how all the fracking in NE of our province compares. Probably about the same I imagine.

I had a bizarre moment of cog--dis learning we manufacture co2...

"ashley: love ain't enough
i know i told you when our words don't work
we finger paint our thoughts

but this time's a little different:
i want you to run
further than than the county line
and then some

steal the moment back for once and lose yourself
forget the things they wanted you to change
but couldn't help"

Idea: Lets all list game ideas we want to run, but have never gotten around to, and hashtag it with #SomedayGame

Gaslands from Osprey rocks. Buy some (or dredge up your old) Hot Wheels cars, and if you are a modeler, add guns & spikey bits & crew, and play out Mad Max and Deathrace inspired races and skirmishes. Thematically, it's kind of like Car Wars but faster and funnier. Commitment can range from around $30 for the book and a few cars to whatever you want to spend to enlarge your fleet, get add on guns and crew, templates, custom dice, scenics etc. Thingiverse has a lot of 3d STL files for it.

Hey when I google for a tutorial, or a brief on something, know what I don't want? A YouTube video. I don't want a long, slow, ad-filled and unedited video full of ummms and uhhhhs explaining something a handful of screen shots and a few hundred words could do.
