It could just be a difference of the liquor, or color balance in the photo, but I think that first picture might be an Old Fashioned rather than just bourbon. It has that sort of reddish-purple tinge to it that you get from angostura bitters.

There’s a running gag in archaeology that variations on “ritual purposes” actually means “I have no idea what this was for”.
That said, there has historically been a connection between certain divination practices and games of chance, so this could easily be both.
That’s not the half of it:
Finally, a worthy sequel to 5nowdog5.
That’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.
Don’t dumb down the gameplay systems
Bethesda design challenge: impossible.
Hofstadter’s Law: It always takes longer than you think, even when you take into account Hofstadter’s Law.
Do you also believe that the Democratic Republic of North Korea is a democracy just because the name says so?
It’s guns all the way down.
I used to use a system that was perfectly happy to let you use a semicolon when setting the password, but then login would fail if you did.
It wouldn’t even change the difficulty, really. You’d just wind up multiplying or dividing by 9/10 instead of 9/5.
There’s a bristlecone pine tree in the White Mountains of California that is nearly 5000 years old.
Well, it is where everybody gets off…
As Norwegian race driver Petter Solberg once said, “it’s not the fart that kills you, it’s the smell”.
“Smell”, of course, being Norwegian for crash.
Depends on the distro. Some have a configuration setting to allow unfree software or not, others have separate repos.
What’s even going on in #19? I see lemon wedges, what looks like okra, maybe, and then…raw ground beef? Surely that can’t be right.
A similar argument is what finally caused the value of the vi family of editors to click in my brain:
They are designed to be fully functional over even the shittiest possible* remote connection. You can’t always count on ctrl, alt, or even the arrow keys being transmitted in a way that is understood by the remote machine.
*Well, I guess the worst possible terminal would be something like an actual teletype, and in that case you’d probably want to fall back to ed or its descendants. To save paper, if nothing else.
Gah, you’re right. I had it that way at first, but then glanced down a list to check my count and they listed 2002’s Harem Adventures as a separate game even though it’s just the Java phone port of the original.
In fact Diyonisius Exiguus made some errors when counting back to establish the anno Domini date system and as such Jesus would likely have been born between 4 and 8 BC.
Then you get things like GTA or Saints Row, where whether I want to be using kb+m or controller changes based on whether I’m driving or on foot.
I’ve long thought that the ideal control scheme would somehow incorporate both a mouse for camera control, the sheer number of buttons you get from having your off-hand on a keyboard, and also analog inputs for things like movement/steering and vehicle throttle.
