I like this game, but even with the genre hints it’s often very hard. It takes a bit to get into the habit of just taking a stab at it.

I think getting more hints, in words or images, in response to guesses would increase the interest.

The more challenges the better IMO because we all have different music taste and knowledge so many challenges I have little hope of guessing. But would still be interesting if there was more back and forth. I wouldn’t mind challenges lasting longer if the op would give clues because then even in a genre I don’t know well I could learn something new.

I don’t expect things to move very quickly as I only check things twice a day or so myself. I like the idea of browsing through a bunch of unsolved games to find one that I have a guess for, I don’t care how long they’ve been up, and as poster I don’t mind responding to old games, or if I get tired of it can always post the answer.

I have three suggestions: Longer time, maybe a week, before posting answer.

List of songs already played (not that you should never reuse one, but in some ways this is helpful and inspiring to those who might post a challenge). Not all of the Lemmy apps have ability to search within a community.

Don’t just reply “Nope” if you’ve got time to be a little more helpful–the game is hard.

Yeah, I hadn’t heard of it, but it looks really cool. Gonna have to try that out.

TIL

Animal by-products, as defined by the USDA, are products harvested or manufactured from livestock other than muscle meat.[3] In the EU, animal by-products (ABPs) are defined somewhat more broadly, as materials from animals that people do not consume.[4] Thus, chicken eggs for human consumption are considered by-products in the US but not France; whereas eggs destined for animal feed are classified as animal by-products in both countries

So USDA disagrees with Taco Bell, but the various badges given by the vegetarian association have more precise definitions. I didn’t know about animal genes used in plants?

I can’t deny they’ve done a good job of reaching out to traditional Republicans. You can call them liars all you want and I agree but what matters is who was on stage. Maga isn’t worried and the suburban “I’m not racists” think there is a moral center to the party.

I use osmand on Android. Bit of a leaning curve to start as you need to download the maps you want and set up features, but then it is available offline as well and can include topographical and trails or other data if you’re not just traveling in cities.

I thought the Tomorrow War was super clear.

The other complication is that the second map is so potato you can’t see what color the smaller dots are and I think it gives overall a bluer impression than it would at higher quality.

They want money to build sea defenses to protect their cliffside homes from landslides, which is so far reserved for more high-value areas. I’m sympathetic, but this

“But there’s no way anybody could have anticipated these losses 15, even 10 years ago.” is something we’re never going to stop hearing, because we’ve already been hearing it for 10-15 years. Consider this messy alternative that started in 2005.

People will always choose to defend, and continue to build and improve and invest right up to the end, making the eventual damage more costly and chaotic. Something that happens once here and there, maybe we can get away with that, but if the whole coast is going to sink at once, we have to be more responsible or we simply won’t be able to afford the consequences.

The quote/decision from the organization is a year old and presumably what the vote was hoping to overturn. The article confuses by telling the story backward.

This led me down a rabbit hole about conscientious objector status and how, if your objection to cruelty extends to fellow humans, you need to be prepared to opt out of the military long before any draft and there are organizations to advise on this process. Thanks for sharing.

The way they are so evenly situated, I think they are just putting a population-proportioned dot in the center of each county. In meant states, counties are pretty much equal sized squares with varying amounts of people in them.

They are probably coloring whole counties, where the second map just makes a dot for each country proportional to population.

Never-nesters, empty-nesters, and second marriages combined. It would be interesting to trace cohorts through time.

If you want to see the sun rise Honey, I know where We’ll go out and see it sometime We’ll both just sit there and stare Me with my belt wrapped around my head And you just sittin’ there In your brand new leopard-skin pillbox hat

Tall-shaming, too, tsk tsk

Does it still count if there’s nothing left to shoot?

So ten years ago visiting I was told about this earlier race of redheaded people as archaeological theory based on incomplete evidence, but like something that was an active question. But now the story is very different and I guess the government has officially acknowledged that it was just a way to undermine the Maori treaties and reparations.

Nope, but I think that one’s been done before. This one’s more about the hat.

Holy shit, dude, don’t put that in your body!

“I hope and pray that our Government will not listen to the ex-parte statements of the old rulers of these States, many of whom are still traitors at heart, and even now are seeking to grasp again the political power under the old flag,” Saxton added. “It will be bad for the Freedmen if these men again get into power.”

It wasn’t long before Saxton’s fears became a reality. In April 1865, just a month after creating the Freedmen’s Bureau, Lincoln was assassinated by actor and Confederate sympathizer John Wilkes Booth. Lincoln’s successor, Andrew Johnson, was an avowed white supremacist who moved quickly to pardon many former Confederates and return their land.

“[Johnson] used executive power very, very skillfully to undermine transfer of land to Black people, and to really hamstring the Freedmen’s Bureau,” said Donald Nieman, a history professor at Binghamton University. He added that Johnson acted out of personal prejudice toward the freedmen, but also political expediency. “By restoring land and by giving pardons to the former landowners in the South, he thought he could make that group of people beholden to him politically.”
