The rich are the problem, something needs to be done about them. I’m hungry.

Edit- ugh, embarrassing misspelling left up too long.

No idea what to say about this, or what it even is. But I’m sorry to hear it. I had a very similar situation as a kid, multiple divorces, used as a pawn in their fight over money. It’s rough, but I learned from their mistakes and have a strong marriage that works.

Nah, been great, getting married was the smartest thing I’ve ever done.

Exactly, the vision was flawless, it will all be blamed on the execution. The people who failed to build it will be held accountable though; departments of them…

Fucking awesome system we have here.

You think that’s bad, I got married in 2008.

Then again, I’ve done a lot in that time, 3 kids into it, including 2 teenagers…

Thanks, I’ll look there. I usually just go Amazon or Newegg (easy returns if bad) but I’m sure there are better deals out there.

I used to pay like $69 for them in the US. Looks like they add a hundred bucks or so to the price…

I’ve got 30tb or so made up of 4 and 10tb used drives. All I’ll buy anymore. In fact, I need to change out of of my parity drives. Hopefully used market is still somewhat affordable.

Couldn’t agree more with the sentiment, a fantastic outlook :). I am the complete opposite on the pasta front and try to find the longest pasta I can. So much more fun twirling one giant noodle at a time.

They arrived when arcade machines started charging more than one quarter per play. They are there to make it easier to spend money, I mean once you bought them, why not spend them all?

I’m old though.

They should have never gone to them. Arcades should be something you visit with a pocket full of quarters.

That’s not very nice to tetanus.

100%. I try to use open source wherever possible. If it does have to be closed/proprietary, I will only use software I can own, no subscriptions; and the only if I can get them working in Linux (wine has come SO far).

That said, I do still have a windows partition but only for job related stuff.

So far I’m fairly impressed with it. I’ll stick to Debian and LMDE for my purposes, but the family computer got a new life just in time for the RAM and SSD garbage.

What a glorious future AI is heralding.

unless, I suspect, like me, you have a thick foundation of rock-solid cynicism that the AI simply will never penetrate

Do we know each other or something :).

Honestly great comment, couldn’t agree more.

Quit reading at:

…AI platform where autonomous coding agents…

But your comment made me go back and look out of disbelief. How does a person get this far down a rabbit hole?

I wish I had more upvotes. Perfect.

Same. I adore my wife, fall more in love with her every day we’re together. It’s not always easy, but things that are worth it aren’t. Marriage is the best decision I ever made.

I did get married a little later than some, just had turned 30 the month before we tied the knot. Maybe taking my time and finding the right one helped, not sure. Just knew it was her almost right away.

She might be further down the list, but she’s still on it. You cannot accumulate billions and be a good person full stop.
