lol, well it was Pringles propaganda, so I'm sure they were trying to make themselves look like they spared no expense "engineering" their snack food. 😆

They did, but the first run of MacBooks we got that didn't have Firewire would let you use USB. But we needed an A to C adapter to make that work.

Ha, old man brain glitching there. The A to A cable we used for file migration, but we had to stick an A to C adapter on one end to use TDM on some machines (had to be USB 3 rated, I think). It was around 2016, if I remember correctly? It honestly didn't come up that often.

"Hey, let's swap wives."

"No... we must go further..."

In the long, long ago, we used to use USB-A to A cables to transfer customers' Mac OS X user profiles when they would buy a new Mac. Also worked with Target Disk Mode, way back when.

Hard to believe that Boeing built the Saturn V -- but the aggressive push by publicly-traded companies to shift focus from creating a long-standing reputation for quality, to rising quarterly earnings at any cost instead has led to an HUGE downgrades in quality and workmanship. At this point, I wouldn't trust Boeing to build a door knob.

And yet the phrase, "That's just the tip of the fire hydrant," never really caught on :(

He must have incredible genetic abilities.

If I'm sick and just need a little bit rest and pampering, I want to enjoy it.

If I'm dying and there's nothing that can be done, I'd rather quietly lay down in my grave than be a burden to my loved ones.

I don't know why I'm like this either.

First picture is of two men appearing on a game show -- they're not characters, they're real people. Second picture is those same two men years later. The gameshow was filmed at a time when rampent cultural homophobia prevented these men from presenting themselves as a couple.

Oh, but if you pick up an item called the Skull of Mondain be sure to use it in town! (j/k it's not in VII.)

Could be worse -- they could have sent him a singing telegram.
