  • Thanks for saving my time.

  • Yeah. Alcohol. Of course. Haha. What's what on my nose?

  • That's gonna be the best ham in the world.

  • Lots of politicians out there free to use too.

  • Bloatware! Even assembly language is barely acceptable, best is directly changing the mechanical relays in your Zuse one, naturally. If you wanna get crazy, change the celluloid strip with another program & get Doom to run on it.

  • I can't get that old, ever. I am 45 next year, and it's like Oscar Wilde had said: "The tragedy of growing old is not that one is old but that one is young" and you have to show that. Starting with jiu jitsu next month. Let's roll!

  • Windows is an anachronism. Since I even got my wife and her gaming PC on the light side with Garuda Linux, works like a charm. After that she wanted me to install that "cool blank desktop" I have on my work laptop on her business machine in the shop. Now she loves bspwm. Learning doesn't make life harder per se, it's fun.

  • Yep. It's me. Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and savior, GNU/Linux?

  • Never was. I have my 2nd serious girlfriend now, I'm 45 now and I wasn't longer than maybe 2 weeks single since I was 15. No, I'm not especially attractive for the objective eye / common taste, I'm kinda fat, kinda Sport guy, just a country guy living in the city, I guess. I for myself think that I'm breathtakingly beautiful, as is my wife even more so, naturally ;) IDK, maybe I fall relatively easily in love?? And when I do, something in me changes profoundly. There were 2 or 3 girls in the weeks inbetween, but nothing to speak about. My girlfriends were all from my high school, the first one for 5 years, the second (my wife with whom I'll grow old) now 23 years and still walking the walk, still discovering new things on each other. Next year we will marry, for economical reasons, we don't need a piece of paper or any religion, as we see it, we're married, best friends, therapists, audience, business partner and much much more for each other. Plus: she must be the only individual in this universe that can bear with me silly goof. I'm sure I'd simply die without her. I don't know why, but single life never ever seriously crossed my mind as I realize just now. Not once. Hmm.

  • That's a sign that she's clearly a slug.

  • That show has something deeply soothing for me, like I'm in my workshop and turning a new piece of wood and waiting for it to talk to me.

  • That's the thing with the image of an enemy: it's like a habit, apparently, and it's the easy way to control people: over fear. I want to believe that we all on this insignificant planet (on cosmic scale) will overcome that at one point and grow up a little bit. As humans, not as a member of that anachronistic idea of nations.

  • "Grub cannot find MBR of Microsoft Windows" -meh, don't care.

  • I'm not on his side, the strict opposite, but we can't kill em all. I'd we start there, where do we stop? I know, it seems oh so complicated, but it's not black and white. We have to find a way to deal with these individuals. I haven't got a plan, but killing them isn't a viable solution. Think about it. I know, it sounds so tempting and easy, but it's not easy to deal with these things. Never.

  • I'm loving my Linux running surface actually. Relatively cheap & no problems whatsoever. I just can't imagine to pay 1000 bucks for that kind of hardware, sorry.

  • Heroin. In the right amount it actually slows aging a bit. Emphasis on THE RIGHT AMOUNT. It slows other things too, though.

  • Hand planes, Japanese chisels (Nomi) and some other woodworking tools, mostly japanese. If you maintain them properly, they should hold up very very long.

  • I second it! The BEST on induction, we cook old Julia Child recipes these days with it. What a great pot! I actually prefer it over our copper stuff.
