  • I think this might be a potential disconnected between rural and urban folks. A lot of trucks are big and stupid; and unsafe. But an old style reasonable pick up doesn’t need a CDL. It’s very useful for moving things that you don’t want to mess up your interior. During the summer my family takes one with a small motorcycle and inflatable kayaks to raft rivers in Colorado; quite useful. But I get it in the cities; even our reasonable sized sedan felt big having the parallel park when I’ve visited them.









  • The yellow wolf spent so long being concerned he would be found out that the last panel is a moment of catharsis; that he has been accepted as a member of the community regardless of who he is or was. He observes his wolf friends who once denounced his behavior sharing the original wolf culture with the sheep. Likewise he can see the sheep partaking in the wolf culture freely, bringing to a close his earlier fears about being found out. The elephant recognizes this and confirms that yes everything is going to be alright he’s not imagining it. (At least that’s how I read it)

    “Expediency asks the question is it politics? Vanity asks the question is it popular? The conscience asks the question is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe nor politics nor popular but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right.“

    kinda crazy he could just come up with something so eloquent to answer a three sentence question.




  • I would say it can sometimes be nice to have an old Laptop for this purpose, you have to slightly over build your solar but can be nice to have a mouse and keyboard attached and monitor, ssh works. Still have an hp laptop with a core i5 2nd gen sitting out in my greenhouse, is a little more power hungry but not terrible on idle, and is nice to be able to configure changes to watering without going back inside or wrecking the zen by bringing phone.


  • Hey if it’s still out there as open source could finally fix those bugs lol!

    But yeah seems interesting especially if it had a second life once it was opened sourced. It kinda boggles my mind how much companies are willing to scrap things after putting so much work into it, but I guess that’s the whole sunk cost thing but still.

    Plenty of nostalgia for toon town so if it was used could broaden audience of video def.

    Thanks for your ‘rant’ was interesting seeing some of the same problems that pop up for me in my current game dev (how to handle when to load certain things).
