Hey Fabien! It doesn't look like the link for this article is on your main page. I love your posts and check the main page frequently each week; I totally missed it until I saw it here.

I love 86Box! I use it on my MacBook to run that sweet spot of Windows 95/98 games that won't run in DosBox or a Win11 VM.

I work for an oil and gas brokerage company. What you say is absolutely true (Especially your last sentence!). Some wild stories. We've certainly dug up some family drama throughout the whole process.

Backbone One? I recently got the non-PlayStation branded one for my iPhone and I love it. I had been wanting one for a while, and finally jumped when they released the Gen 2 version with swappable mounts to support cases. It’s been fantasti

This is fantastic! I had no idea this project was a thing. While I love HoMM3 and the HD Mod/HoA, HoMM2 was the one I played first and will always be my favorite.

My house has a lot of small rock landscaping for water drainage. You can't rake the leaves over that without taking all the rock with it.

Hey! The author wrote PuTTY! That was a very informative read. I feel like I am the exact target audience: I'm coming from a programing background steeped in C# and I'm learning C from the K&R book.

Reminds me of the "fun" year after year of getting into Blizzcon. Friends and I managed to snag tickets for 2011, (there wasn't a 2012 Blizzcon), 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 before finally calling it off. I believe

A decade ago puts you at .NET Framework 4.0 or so, and C# version 4. A lot has changed since then. While your old books would still be somewhat relevant, you are missing out on a lot of new features in both C# and .NET. Especially since dep

You are correct. In my experience, government lots that go for the minimum bid at auction are VERY wildcat in nature. Federal mineral rights with proven reserves can go for thousands of dollars an acre at auction.

They are open auctions, yes, but it appears from the article that the BLM has taken steps in the past to cancel leases that have been purchased explicitly to prevent drilling from occurring. Regardless of how you feel about that, you could

I am quite familiar with Duchesne County from my work. But yes, the right of ingress and egress applies to holders of mineral rights. I am sure there are bad apples, but the clients I've worked with have been very accommodating to surf

No these are leases for mineral rights, the surface rights are an entirely different issue.

Interesting! A quick Google search shows the BLM did deny the lease stating their lack of intent to drill. I did not know they had the ability to do that. I am inclined to believe now that a big effort to tie up Federal minerals would make

It GREATLY depends on the area. Just because someone nominated Federal acreage up for leasing doesn't mean there is anything worthwhile to drill on. That said, if a lease receives bids from different companies, you can assume there is

Yes you could! These lease sales can get quite expensive if they're worth anything to oil and gas companies. My company has been party to auctions for clients that have stretched into seven figures alone. Other times, many leases don&#
