I’ve seen this personally here in Georgia, and I mean more than once.

I handle this, as do most poor people, by not asking ourselves this question, not even fantasizing about it, for why torture yourself with something you never can do?

The secret of Linux is, if all your hardware works, it’s actually easier to use for casual users. Most people nowadays use computers for web browsing and maybe playing media and light office tasks. A Linux Mint setup will have everything you need for that either preinstalled or ready to get fun the software store. If you don’t need anything else, then it gets it of your way and just works. No viruses, little danger of malware, no crud to uninstall, no Microsoft account, no nagging apps, no ads, no attempts to upsell to paid cloud services or Pro, and no AI.

The problem arises when you want to go beyond that, and there’s no obvious path ahead,v then people not used to the Linux way of doing things may run into trouble. But 90% of users, if someone sets it up for them, will do fine.

Both were great, but both also took me a week to get through, a piece at a time.

Along these lines, I have several important memory locations memorized. POKE 53280 and 1 to change the border and background colors. 828 is the cassette buffer, and 49152 the free memory above BASIC ROM. SYS 64738 resets the machine.

I also can recite the powers of 2 up to 65536.

This poll is for the Mozilla Foundation. They don’t make the browser. The post should probably have made that clear.

I signed up for Loops the first day. I didn’t get an email confirmation until two days after, and I still haven’t been given a way to sign in.

Google constantly puts Youtube ads at the top of searches for information! Countless people put their information on Youtube in the form of videos! Tutorials get put on Youtube as a matter of course! There’s a trove of old media on Youtube that can’t be accessed any other way! Congratulations, you’ve won the award for the most thoughtlessly dismissive person on the internet today.

This is from Graham “Grickle” Annable! He worked at Lucasfilm Games/Lucasarts, written/drawn books, designed Puzzle Agent I & II for Telltale Games, has great Youtube cartoons, and posts great cartoons to social media too!

Also, if you agree to this and your wife dies due to allergies in one of your theme parks, they may use the TOS on this trial to rule you agreed to binding arbitration in court.

I saw pigeons at the Washington DC Amtrak station last year. Birds will bird.

There are people like this all around us, an invisible sea through which we swim unknowingly. Sorrow is the human condition, but we don’t see it because most people don’t communicate it.

I love it when foodstuffs get put in scarequotes.

An actual ally character from Shiren the Wanderer 4, which never made it to the US: https://archive.rpgamer.com/games/mystdungeon/shiren4/art/shiren41.jpg

(Why did it never make it to the US? It has some, uh, unfortunate NPC designs.)

Wait a moment…
