A Unique Northern Irish Term for Embarrassment

"Scundered" is a term that is used to describe a feeling of embarrassment, discomfort, or awkwardness. It’s often used in situations where someone has been put in an uncomfortable position, or when someone is feeling self-conscious or embarrassed.

Salto del pastor

Imagine pole-vaulting across dangerous terrain, down steep slopes and ravines. “Salto del pastor”—translated from Spanish as “the shepherd’s leap”—is just that. Now a folk sport and hobby, it was once the Guanches way of transport while shepherding on the volcanic terrain of the Canary Islands. Gregorio is a shepherd who still moves around this way, avoiding the use of cars and city life. Salto is now seen as a hobby or a leisure sport practiced by enthusiasts who continue the tradition. We meet Gregorio, as well as the others who have developed new techniques to enjoy this peculiar transportation, in this short film by Dorota Mazur and Robert Migas.

È come se fossimo bambini :)

RIP Tony Todd

His Candyman character is both loved and feared throughout the world, but I loved his dark and ominous presence in the Final Destination franchise. But most of all, from his performance as the main counterpart in The Man From Earth, the great anthropologist. Rest in peace.

Fuck your webp

That’s it. Fuck your webp. And if you use webp, fuck you too.

It can be pretty annoying to setup DOS or Win9x/ME. Solutions usually include floppy drives or virtual machines. None of that here. Download the image. Unzip and Burn to an SD Card. Use a tool like Win32 Disk Imager to burn it to an SD card. Use a tool like MiniTool Partition Wizard to expand the partition to the size of the SD Card.

The card will boot into DOS 7.1

From there, you have the files to install Win 95, 98 or ME. Install it and delete the other two folders. No CD Keys are included but use the “standard” ones or your own.
