Anyone who wasn’t around then can’t really know what they missed.

Thanks for the recommendation. I’m heading off on a kind of long road trip, and I’ll slip it into my rotation.

I really haven’t listened to them since they moved from Touch & Go. I’ll give their new stuff a try.

That was my thought as well. I’m also thinking it might be a challenge to get something to read them in 100 years.

M-Disc?

I really was enjoying Handmaiden’s Tale (the TV series), then I happened to read the lead character is a true blue Scientologist. That fact made the show unwatchable.

My grandmother ran Linux for a couple decades until her death at 101 years old. My 80+ year old mom has been running Linux for at least 2 decades. Yes, I’m tech support, but I don’t really have to do anything. It just works.

I’ve decided to just ignore battery hype and tune back in when it’s time to swap out my house battery in 5-10 years. Hopefully some of the vaporware will have actually materialized in the market by that time.

I’m happy for a new streetcar line that is almost done in my area. My happiness is pretty pathetic and sad.

I recently read Kernighan’s UNIX: A History and Memoir. It was pretty interesting. Also, Bell Labs still hosts a page with a lot of links/info for Richie at: https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/

There’s this: https://github.com/lextrack/Simple-Screen-Recorder

Disclaimer: I haven’t touched Windows in at least a decade.

I was working in a warehouse with another punk and this came over the airwaves. I can still remember him looking at me with a really confused expression before asking,“Is this…The Butthole Surfers?!” Like it just clashed with his reality.

I tried FreeBSD for several months about 15-20 years ago. I really liked how clean the filesystem and environment felt, and have suggested it for many people over the years. In the end I couldn’t get around their license vs GPL.

This is what most of the schools around my area installed a couple years ago:

I edited my config, and it changed the font size next time I opened kitty. I’m not sure what is happening to you, other than maybe having the config file not where it’s expected.

Did you remove the # at the start of the font_size setting?

I’m sure you’ve seen it many times, but I love Bill Hick’s take on marketing.

I guess when/if I buy another car, I’ll look into gov’t fleet auctions.

Remember when gov’t banned Furbies (sp?) in some places? Seems like they would make the same decision for a lot of people in important positions regarding their car purchasing.

That was hilarious.
