Honestly, forget you if your screen only supports up to 80 characters in width. It's not the 1990's anymore.
Tabs are better

It's just way way way way WAY too detailed for Blockland.

Yeah basically looks like you could achieve the same effect by just using textures for most of it.
I'm really annoyed when I see things in Blockland that should be using textures but use a bunch of polygons instead, like text.

Pop because that's what everyone says in the north, but I try to say soda so the dumb-dumbs don't get confused.

It didn't work, sadly. Any other ideas?

You've disabled Windows' mouse acceleration right?

I use a VPS with digitalocean to host my site

https://digitalocean.com

the $5 a month plan will suit you absolutely fine for a smaller site with moderate traffic

On the topic of DigitalOcean, if you are eligible for the GitHub Student Developer pack, you can get $50 credit on Digital Ocean.
(Used to be $100)

I saw discussion saying you could still do it using an emulator.  But it- that- sounds laggy.

Emulating x86 on ARM doesn't sound fun

Yeah, it's Winter. Humidity drops and your nose dries out and bleeds.
There are ointments you can get to moisturize your nose

I specifically remember my cousin watching spider-man cartoons on Disney XD or disney channel that had deadpool in them. Tried looking it up and only got the amazing spider man appearances(which are one possible source), but that wasn't it.

Disney themselves never made any super hero cartoons, iirc, but they may have showed another company's cartoon on their channel.

What did Disney do? They're not allowed to use certain Marvel characters until the deal with FOX runs out.
