Here we have men going infertile, whereas in the movie it is the women. Yes, they could follow, certainly. Placentas might not be viable because of all the microplastics, or something. I don't know as I am no babyologist.

Children of Men almost had it right.

I love pudding cups! Oh shit, I am olde!

Many years ago, we had a troubled employee leave work very mad. He was quite furious with his computer and went home for his revolver unbeknownst to us. He came back to work with it and unloaded all six rounds into the system. Each round went through the case and each one missed the drive/motherboard/videocard. So, the system was still working despite the abrupt extra cooling holes. This further incensed him and he went away even madder, but this time in cuffs.

Yes, and one of the reasons I want to keep it going. It’s an old Fujitsu and has a cool form factor (another reason). I recycled about a dozen laptops a few months back, but could not bear to see this one go. It came with XP, but I don’t care to reload that at all. Am also downloading older versions of Slack to see if they’ll work.

I have an old laptop with a Transmeta Crusoe CPU. Can anyone recommend a distro that will work on it? I’ll download this one and give it a shot too.

I have not checked, is there a viable candidate running against her? Any candidate running against her? Isn't her district insanely red?

Agree. Let's start with Tesla!

My family finds my skills as an electrician quite shocking.

Scream, “Do you know who I am???”

60% of the time, it works every time.

I’ve finally had to disabled it. Been a few weeks and while typing is more of an effort on my part, it is also much less frustrating.

The predictive text was far and away the most annoying part.

More “kid glove” responses to a company killing people. Penalties really need to be harsher than a simple fine without admitting wrongdoing. My confidence in CPAP machines in general has been shook, but I will never knowingly buy a Philips product of any kind again.

I wish we’d stop taking the easy route and settling these suits too. Litigate them to a guilty verdict and punish them harshly. Otherwise it’s just the cost of doing business ad nauseum.

Yes. The Great American Streetcar Scandal.

They were never really punished for this and I think this was a lesson learned by all that corps could do what they want without fear of repercussions.

Hung jury for a guy who fired his rifle at a passing crowd and killed someone. ... That means at least one jury member just thought that it wasn't a crime to kill people...

Is there one juror who was purported to be a Fox News viewer on Trump's hush money trial? My cynical self sees a similar result coming there.

Okay, now that you got rid of that guy, excellent job btw, when do we set sail for Inner Earth?

I’d bet they’re just parking the stores temporarily only to buy them back later after the deal happens. But then I’m a cynic.

Well said, Jim, Jim and Jim.
