I've been sailing the high seas since BBS's reigned supreme. Btw, there are telnet BBS's.

Sony lost any moral high ground when they put a commercial for a Toyota on my Blu-ray of 1408 which retailed for $35 at the time. And of course, you can't skip it.

I'm over here still playing on my PS3.

I have a laptop I bring all over just for media. It works great in hotel rooms too.

AI allows us to do more with less just like any other tool. It's no different than an electric drill or a powered saw. Perhaps in the future we will see more immersive environment games because much of the immersive environment can be made with AI doing the grunt work.

I've gone full circle to the really bad quality amateur stuff as it seems much less fake to me.

You do have a point. Most of the issues I've ever had on any of my computers has been with windows. Linux just keeps on humming along. Every one of the hand me down laptops I seem to get because they are "too slow", gets wiped, Linux installed and they work great after.

Life is change. It's literally the only thing you can 100% depend on. Once you accept that, not fear it, just accept it, you can move on to the great things that are here and now in the present.

Not working, however, is quite fulfilling.

"Fascist journalist fears for life." I fail to see where the problem is. People would have been cheering this in 1945.

About 5 years ago, my Dad went into the hospital due to low oxygen levels (he had cancer), this was in the morning. I went to work and while I was working the customer had a massive stroke and died. This was while watching her grand kids. No one noticed until her daughter came home. The stress of all that combined with my Dad's failing health brought me as close as I have ever come to a breakdown.

I've done countless installs of both windows and Linux over 20 years. Windows seems to work, until it doesn't. Then it needs a refresh which they don't make easy. Linux installs, with about the same number of exceptions as windows "work out of the box" with no messing with anything. When you need refresh, you simply, back up, wipe the partition and start over.
