I own a couple actual vintage arcade machines and paid less for them than this. If you shop around you can find deals.
I also have one of these 1up cabs and it is definitely not like vintage. Software may be the same but it is using a modern monitor not a CRT. I think I paid around 300 for it several years ago. Not full size.

Miss me with this pussy shit, removed!
You need to punch up your comeback game? I gotchu!
Someone called you a motherfucker? "I found out yo momma so UGLEE her blowjobs count as anal. And she LOOOVES giving me "anal"."
Someone called you a rebel without a cause? "At least I'm not a removed without a dick."
Some comebacks that work for almost anything:
Did you think of that YOURSELF, Einstein?
You're dumber than you look.
You're not the brightest bulb in the pack, are you?
You're not the sharpest knife in the drawer, are you?
Did your mommy tell you to say that?
Are you always an asshole or only on Fridays?
Are you sure you know what all those words mean?
I’ve been called worse by better.
You go out in public with that face?
Your village called – they want their idiot back.
You’ll never be the man your mom is.
Which circus did you escape from?
Which zoo did you escape from?
Which ape cage did you escape from?
Your ass must be pretty jealous of all the shit that comes out of your mouth.
Grab a straw, because you suck.
I don’t have the time or the crayons to explain.
If you were a spice, you’d be flour.
It’d be awesome if you used glue instead of Chapstick.

Some of the best steak I've ever had is ribeye fried then baked.
Above instructions (and site) CANNOT be beat. Buy prime ribeye if you can.

I would finally build the dome home I dreamed of in college. Myself, no contractors.
Planning might push this in other directions like an earth berm home or similar. I might also consider some hybrid designs. Alternative housing is really interesting and uncommon.

If the difference were only a nominal % I might agree with you.
When I bought the Complete Calvin and Hobbes the price at the local bookstore was about twice the online prices.

I appreciate local bookstores and brick and mortar B&N...BUT prices.
Unfortunately online is much cheaper than in store.

I know some shit is unavoidable. But I really do think about clicking on links that seem questionable to me. I try to prevent but also know this is an imperfect strategy.

I'm not exactly an expert so please research all of this further, but my understanding is that you have a few options. In no particular order:
- COBRA. I know it's expensive ($800 / mo or more) but you're still getting the "group" discount your employer gets. Cheaper than buying insurance on the "open market" without getting your employer's group discount.
- Major medical. This is health insurance but only covers major incidents. No preventative care. Shitty but better than worst case medical problems bankrupting you.
- Open market insurance. Just buying straight from a health insurance company. Very expensive. Try Obamacare first.
- Obamacare. This has different names in different states. Tiered costs based on income. You'll want to research how it looks at income because this might inform the timing of leaving your job/current health insurance.
- No insurance. Terrible option, but you can go to the emergency room and they have to treat you.
- Other insurance. I believe some places like Costco (Sam's club?) offer health insurance for businesses.
The whole thing is a confusing mess and no options are perfect.
Have you talked with other small business owners? Do you have connections to the business community that could explain what they do? If you don't have anyone to network with about this, FIND some people. Even just by walking into their business and telling your story. Many communities have business incubators or other networking for startups. At least one mentor could make a HUGE difference for you.
Is starting the business and ramping it up for some time THEN quitting possible? This could make sense for a lot of reasons, not just health insurance.
If nothing else, you could work long enough to save up 6 months or a year of COBRA and then quit to do your business full time.
Best wishes!

I LOVED TA back in the day. I recently bought it again off Steam.
Any platform(s).
Mine is the computer. I continue to be amazed at what we can do with them.
Right now it seems like its "A.I.". Still big now are the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine. Recently we had COVID 19. What's next?
Most are probably too young to remember but nanotechnology was supposed to be the most super amazing thing ever.

Phones could allow much higher security if they supported 2 factor authentication. This could be face/fingerprint along with a typed or swiped password. This seems like a simple solution that leverages software that is already implemented. Just make it an added option in addition to the existing one ETA: Sorry for the duplicate posts, I was getting error messages. Pls use this one. I am surprised there is confusion about what 2fa is.

I'm looking to buy more CDs and expand my depth and breadth of metal music appreciation. Instead of "greatest hits" I'd like a studio (or live) album that is a shining example of a great band. I'll start: [Ratt: Out of the Cellar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out_of_the_Cellar) [Listen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxTnnpG8MTM&list=OLAK5uy_mgeO61TWf0C8TcB2hu2VDGC0GPRcQXE9E&index=2) This was Ratt's breakthrough hit and debut album that put them on the map. Several hits on this disc like "Round and Round". Also a couple great songs that were not hits like "Lack of Communication" and "I'm Insane". Edit To Add: Some great responses below, thanks! Please feel free to ponder further and add to your response or respond again with other bands!
I would like to recommend Vector Pinball to anyone with even a passing interest in video pinball or video games. I find this game to be very impressive, even more so as a free app on F-droid. I need to send this dev some cash, I have probably put \>200 hours into this game and I am really enjoying it. **Things I like:** Physics are perfect. 8 boards Each board plays very uniquely. Great depth of play, the boards are complex and take some work to unlock/see everything. Addictive. Some boards are very difficult. Unique look with vector graphics. Reminds me of Tron. Pretty good music. **Things I don't like:** My phone doesn't have pinball buttons. Doing that on the screen is a bit awkward. Workable but awkward. The ball can pass between your flippers with no chance to hit it. Often normal for pinball, this always annoys me. I think I should always have some chance to hit and save the ball. Show me my score and high scores as soon as I finish a game. I should not have to press a button or wait for the scrolling to see these. 9/10
[T Pain - War Pigs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhjIs2Htzdc) This has been blowing up on "another social media site" and I'm just curious what lemmy metalheads think.

The Biden administration will subject dozens of drugmakers to inflation penalties, the White House said on Thursday, in a move that would reduce out-of-pocket costs for Medicare recipients. President Joe Biden's signature Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) includes a provision to penalize drugmakers for charging prices that rise faster than inflation for people on Medicare, a government program for those age 65 and older and the disabled.([https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/dozens-companies-raised-drug-prices-faster-than-inflation-white-house-says-2023-12-14/](https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/dozens-companies-raised-drug-prices-faster-than-inflation-white-house-says-2023-12-14/))
