“OK, you’ve finished your first play through. Now go back a handful of decades and don’t do the same fuck-ups.”

Yeah, we knew that before Snowden. Story made me think of my uncle, RIP, who’s friend told him to “buy Cisco, trust me” back in the early '90s. So my uncle bought Sysco. He was pissed at himself until the day he died.

Caddyshack. I can’t believe it hasn’t been mentioned.

That was my thought as well. I’m also thinking it might be a challenge to get something to read them in 100 years.

M-Disc?

I’m no expert, but I think KeePassXC doesn’t need to sign in to a server somewhere.

koreader is my goto reader, on my tablet and phone. The interface is a bit unintuitive, but once you get it set up to your liking, it’s a great reader.

What, do you think you’re so smart? Think you’re some rocket scientist?

Yes

…sorry

Whatever book I’m currently reading.

Isn’t that a Dodge?

I just have some syncthing shared folders with friends/family. It may be a little weird to set up, but once there, it’s seamless.

My grandmother ran Linux for a couple decades until her death at 101 years old. My 80+ year old mom has been running Linux for at least 2 decades. Yes, I’m tech support, but I don’t really have to do anything. It just works.

English is pretty fluid and acceptable words and definitions morph with time. So in current use, they are pretty much interchangeable, but that still pisses me off. It’s a loss of nuance. It’s like we are actively dumbing down the language as if Newspeak is a good thing.

Let me take out my cane and say,“Back in my day…”

• Envy: You wish you had something someone else does.
• Jealousy: You worry about losing something you have.

Example: I jealously protect what I have, probably to an unhealthy degree. At the same time, I sure envy that person for having something I wish I had.

envy and jealousy are supposed to have different meanings, but idiots always use jealous when they mean envious. Annoys the fuck out of me.

That makes sense. I enjoyed the first Tom Cruz Reacher movie. Then I read a handful of the books, and was just very disappointed in the casting.

I’m not sure that I would want to see it, but I was surprised that True Lies didn’t turn into a franchise.

It’s probably because I was drunk when I watched Judge Dredd in the theater, but I seem to remember liking Stallone in that. I thought that Dredd was just a worse rip-off of The Raid, but then I read somewhere that they basically co-evolved to a similar thing.

We already have the 14th amendment, but Republicans don’t seem to like The Constitution.
