I learned vi so I would not have to use ed or emacs!

Wait until you meet an emacs user! ;p

Do you have to wear the fedora to run this command?

Useless use of cat award!

Nobody! I’m in a coma!

It looks like a mobile dumpster.

M’who’m’st’ve’er’nt’lady?

Perhaps you meant as an adult? From my feeble memory, he was already a good person when elected. He divested the peanut farm when taking office (he honored the customs of office), he asked America to put on a sweater during an energy crisis and resisted religious meddling in politics. The hostages were used against him to get Reagan elected and it’s been downhill mostly since.

He was vilified for the things mentioned, the hostage debacle and probably other things that might be valid. I know he wasn’t perfect, but I admire that man for all he did in tough times. Can’t say I feel that way about any other president since. Carter was the type of man we were told to be (back then) in order to become president. How times have changed.

Wow. Too young for sure. Loved this guy on Maximum PC for years. Sad news indeed.

For a number of years now, work has been proceeding in order to bring perfection to the crudely conceived idea of a transmission that would not only supply inverse reactive current for use in unilateral phase detractors, but would also be capable of automatically synchronizing cardinal grammeters. Such an instrument is the turbo encabulator.

Now basically the only new principle involved is that instead of power being generated by the relative motion of conductors and fluxes, it is produced by the modial interaction of magneto-reluctance and capacitive diractance.

The original machine had a base plate of pre-famulated amulite surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented.

The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots of the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremie pipe to the differential girdle spring on the “up” end of the grammeters.

The turbo-encabulator has now reached a high level of development, and it’s being successfully used in the operation of novertrunnions. Moreover, whenever a forescent skor motion is required, it may also be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle arm, to reduce sinusoidal repleneration.

“Caught”, just in case you still wondered how it is spelled. I appreciate your effort, carry on.

Buttah we’reah theese aclosa…! 🤌🏼

Eh, seems like it’s a little fuzzy depending on whom you ask. I’d still call you a Millennial and that jives with the Generation X Wikipedia page:

“Researchers and popular media often use the mid-1960s as its starting birth years and the late 1970s as its ending birth years, with the generation being generally defined as people born from 1965 to 1980.”

German comedian in monotone: I just flew in to Zurich and my armz, zey are tired.

Audience: cough.

“There’s a quickly growing religious movement whose followers believe Christians are called to wage a spiritual battle for control of the United States. The New Apostolic Reformation, as it’s known, seeks an explicitly Christian command of the highest levels of the government, including the presidency and the Supreme Court—but its leaders are working on the hyper-local level, too.“

That and ME is a huge dip in that curve.

I’m on board with your Vista–>7 thoughts, but I do take issue with ME. It never was a decent OS and it very much was a steaming shitpile. It was far too much new code stupidly rushed for the holiday season. I remembering installing it being a roll of the dice even with the same hardware. It would work, then it wouldn’t, then it might work with some odd issues, then it deffo would not at all. Hours wasted trying.

I really did try, but never had a good experience with WinME and I know of no one else who did. Even first Vista was better (though saying that makes me shudder).

How about a wagon? Can we please have an EV wagon?

I have heard they (South Korea) plan on building skyscrapers with screens covering the buildings, so that they can project the background skyline via the screens. The effect would be to render the building almost invisible. Seems like a lofty goal, so I am not sure if they are still pursuing that project or not.
