       Is that one of the two prototypes with the mountains and the house over the ball lock area or did you add those yourself? I have the game, the production version without those decorations of course, and have been thinking of pimping it.

       Ah, doing a bit of searching online, there's quite a number of them available, from cheap to super-expensive :)

       Would you help a poor single-user Friendica server admin out and boost this post?Boosting will increase the number of servers my server federates with.Thanks!EDIT: that is probably not exactly how it works, but it kinda depends on which of the myriad of ActivityPub servers is seeing the boost, and I haven't checked all of them on how they decide what to pull in. For sure, having someone follow an account on the friendica server will have that friendica server push updates to the server of the follower, but other than that? Who knows :)Thanks for the overwhelming amount of boosts anyway, and thanks to those following :)#fediverse #friendica #SelfHosting #SelfHosted

       I made my very first #OpenStreetMap edit yesterday, and I can't believe it took me so long to do so. It's addictive, I've been adding missing buildings, adressed and roads in my neighbourhood all day, and today as well. It feels so empowering to be able to do that and improve the quality of the maps for myself and others. And it's fun too.

       Why is there no Atari ST music internet radio station? I'm sure it exists. Tell me, oh fediverse, where do I find it?#AtariST #AtariMusic #Atari #Chiptune #Chiptunes

       The pinball community at large is unfortunately not a very inclusive community. I've seen plenty of racism, sexism and queerphobia at pinball events, including within the Dutch Pinball Association, where I was a very active member. I remember one meeting / brainstorm about the future of the association where one of the subjects was 'attracting a more diverse audience'. When I brought up diversity, it turned out they were mostly interested in bringing in younger players, not poc, queer or women. I was laughed away by board members.Mind you, there's a lot of exceptions and a lot of good people in the community as well. I've worked with many of them organising big tournaments. Still, in the community at large, all the isms are, if not encouraged, at least tolerated.Personally, I just stopped going to events, the fun to be had wasn't outweighed by constantly having to be prepared for abusive language and derogatory comments. I'm still a somewhat active member of the Dutch Pinball Association (even though I don't live in The Netherlands anymore), but I've become wary of gatherings.The fact that in reply to your post you got a 'don't take away my points, it's not worth it' from @mattlqx shows you where the community's priorities are. Instead of making a stand against intolerance, they are more interested in their personal standings.

       All I have is our dog enjoying the snow. It brings me joy, hopefully you as well.
