I support 5 other humans in all of their eating, cleaning, logistic and clerical needs i'm not sure where this falls in your spectrum but if you consider it 'unemployed' i question the value of this poll.
if they surgically remove the testicles the person loses their ability to make testosterone and will be dependent on weekly injections for the rest of their life, without hormones your bones get brittle. in addition to the mental trauma. this is pretty grim.
the breakfast buffet at Circus Circus in Las Vegas was a surreal experience.
If you were to look at it or photograph the food it all looked completely normal. But I have never encountered a situation where everything was utterly devoid of flavor. It was like encountering the literary device of eating food in hell where all looked fantastic but was like ashes in the mouth.
It extended to every dish. Sausages, eggs, biscuits, pastries. Nothing was edible! Lest you think me some picky eater my guilty pleasure used to be the Big AZ burger at 7-11. The food at Circus Circus was simply inedible to a degree that i'll never forget it.
Telemate, by Tsung Hu, was one of the best pieces of DOS software I ever got to use. It featured internal multitasking via its own file reader and composer. With every other terminal program out there if you wanted to create a new file or use a scratch pad you had to exit the program first and load something else.
With telemate you could download a text, open it in the internal reader, then start copying bits over to the internal composer and then cut and paste the whole thing back into the terminal. This was godlike power at the time.
It had a slew if other really useful comm program features, the file downloading system was super tight and had every protocol, the local file browser was really nice. ansi and other graphics support was superb.
I eventually put it into autoexec.bat so my 286 would boot right into telemate. I was terminally online when online barely existed 😅
I learned to program thanks to this app. I used it to dial up and access shell accounts so i could IRC and MUD. I made friends I still talk to today through it. For years it was my daily companion.
If i could celebrate one single DOS app it would be the humble yet amazing Telemate by Tsung Hu (who went by Winfred Hu at the time)
they also use it at the race track near our houses. up to 20% of the races use leaded fuel. They just tried (again) to ban it but once again the rich white guys get to have their fun at the expense of an entire community.
all cops are bastards
