  • Reputable VPN.

    Strong anti-virus/anti-malware.

    Common-sense when running cracks/keygens (are keygens still a thing?)

    edit: a good backup plan, in case thongs go awry (yes, I see it. Yes, I'm leaving it.)

  • ...higher-than-expected medical costs...

    This probably means medical costs for employee insurance, not that they've been actually providing insurance to policyholders.

  • Mods are asleep, post fake Richard Scarry cars.

  • There's nothing magic about Lucas's vision. But JJ Abrams vision is exclusively "bigger is better". Death Star destroys planets? Well, this Death Star IS a planet. And it kills multiple planets, and it's called Starkiller, and it shoots through hyperspace.

    Star Destroyer? Let's make each one a Death Star. With a big gun. And you can ride horses on the hull.

    Stormtroopers? They fly now.

    (Godzilla? Uhh.. My monster is just as big as Godzilla, and it's only a baby.)

  • It was rhetorical, and it's not the same thing as Macintosh. Strictly commandline, like DOS.

  • Is Apple IIe a Macintosh?

  • The United States ranked 57th, down by two positions, and was second to last among the G7 countries.

    Hold my beer...

  • How does this work? Can I train it on someone else's data to steal their WiFi password?

  • I was in Spain a few years ago, and decided against certain mementos for this reason. Sorry, it may not be KKK, but I won't display a whirling log in my house for similar reasons..

  • I've stolen so many fonts...

  • When I was in elementary school, we came home from shopping and discovered someone had pried off the lock and stolen my bike. I was inconsolable. About an hour later I spotted a kid from my class riding my bike, and managed to recover it.

    I looked that guy up a few years ago. Found him on the sex offender registry.

    In high school, one of my classmates shot and killed his sister's friend while cleaning a .22 rifle. There was a trial, but I don't remember the verdict. As a minor, it might have been sealed. He disappeared for about a year. When he came back, he was completely withdrawn and...changed.

    There was a guy at my high school that was just an absolute jackass. One of those guys that you know is never going to amount to anything, and will probably be in prison shortly after graduation. He disappeared my junior year, I thought he had moved.

    I looked that guy up a few years ago. Actually, he had broken into someone's house (a burglary) and beat the shit out of the homeowner when he was discovered. But he'd also been held back in school a couple times, so he was 18 when he did it. When I looked him up, he had just been released from prison.

  • I don't know...seems like an impossible task.

  • Do I have to do it tonight, or can there be a 'waiting period'? (I have nothing to wear...)

  • A couple weeks before the inauguration, I listened to the President/CEO of the company I work at go on an absolute rant about how Trump was going to get rid of all Biden's DEI hires, about how the Navy Chief was a woman and she would be fired, about how the fastest running time for a woman was slower than the slowest running time for a man(???), and some other, racist stuff.

    I lost my train of thought...what happened?

  • According to this administration, the correct term is 'cosmonaut'.

  • Are you saying we all need to install a continually rotating VPN when we're surfing the internet? As chaff?

  • Two men in a boat is already pretty hot for some people.

  • Yeah, and when you burn that fuel it gets hotter, and that makes it a little lighter too.

  • Whoa

  • Don't forget to account for all the helium leaking out of balloons. That's part of the reason the earth gets lighter too.
