Anything to diminish California. Trump and MAGA can't abide California functioning well because it contradicts their message that liberal-run states are implicitly worse off than conservative-run states.

I was there in the 90s for a bachelor party. I can assure you it was skeevy then too. I think I got black lung from the amount of cigarette smoke in the air inside.

Lol, just Ohio?

The existential dread from the past is the same existential dread of today. We also do not know how things might turn out.

Alcohol must interfere with the anti-dementia cocktail of drugs he has to take every day.

100%

His behavior during the NABJ interview was classic Donny: a narcissist doing everything he could to deflect and avoid been held to account for his prior words/behavior.

Just happened that he let his racism shine through as he tried to worm his way out. Which shows how cognitively impaired he is.

I agree, but this dumpster fire is burning inside the US government. It's going to take some critical stuff with it as it burns itself out. :(

I love AntennnaPod - except when I'm in the car. It doesn't have Android Auto support.

It was painfully apparent she was confused after returning to the Senate earlier in the year. This is a clear-cut case of manipulation. Also elder abuse.

It's fucked when you're looking in from the outside. From the inside, they're all convinced that they're correct about everything and that Trump is their Messiah. It's a cult.

My parents adopted a quirky cat that seems to have had some past trauma. She's finally getting more friendly and less skiddish - AFTER FOUR YEARS.

Sometimes it's just love and time that helps them get over past trauma.

It's definitely possible to convert in both directions. I've never done it though. The technical hurdles made it unpalatable. My main method of moving back and forth was to keep my personal data on a separate disk from the OS disk. That way I could always take my data with me when I changed OSes or VMs.

I think it's far less invasive to setup a Linux VM that can be thrown away vs. setting up dual booting.

With Hyper-V or Virtualbox the OP can have a Linux distribution installed and booting very quickly without fear of disrupting his current Windows installation.

16+ years. Learned about it from Joel Spolsky's blog.

I pretty much agree 100% with your characterization of the decline and your overall experience.

I also hadn't realized how dysfunctional Reddit had become or how much I'd tried to adapt to that dysfunction.
