Thank God there have been enough school shootings in the past so we could learn how to be creative in our grief. /s

There are a lot of nice people here trying to help this guy out. Nice! I lurk with great interest as this autumn changing my old laptop from win 10 to unix is my project.

I once told a waiter what I wanted to eat and their AI in the kitchen was able to produce it beautifully. Just from my prompting!

“Hey, look!”…(made you look).

You want copper? From what I understand those water sucking data centers have more copper than there were pennies, back in the day when a penny meant something.

I’ll watch the neighbours kids do a backyard “concert” before I would pay ticketmaster to see a show. Local gigs and community theatre will be making a big comeback down the road. Ticketmaster can’t sustain their iron grip on venues and touring artists forever. In the meantime though it’s morphed into a service for the elite and the “monied”.

I use physical drives that I backup and swap weekly. I’m not a business and this is good enough for the things I want to save, in case everything goes BOOM! I was probably one of the first to say “A Cloud? That would be just someone else’s computer. Why would you store your valuable data in somebody else’s computer? That makes no sense!”

Mexico knows how to do autos for most of their citizens, not just the upper-middle class like the rest of N. America.

I feel that the foldable, paper maps will be making a big comeback in the near future.

Just goes to show google does not play “follow the facts”. It plays “follow the leader”.

Makes no sense. If you ban windows it makes it harder to snipe a school shooter. /s

I bought the first Queen album on vinyl. Then 8-track. Then cassette. Then compact disc. I finally pirated the digital version. I owned every piece of media that the album came on with the exception of the pirated copy (which I could have digitized from my compact disc). In not one case has a company ever came into my home and said “You have to give that back, but no refund though”. This makes no sense.

You are commenting on administration and procedure. What do you think of the common spelling error? It’s hardly negative unless you see the world darkly.

I think the word your looking for is “want”, not “need”. There is a very large difference in meaning between the two.

Not just peacock. Ads are invasive. I watch a game show on YouTube because I can pause it to read the lists. The same gameshow on Prime goes right into an ad when I pause. I hope this was a human dumb feature and not an evil design perk for the overlords. I amend what Shakespeare said…“First, we kill all the advertisers”.

trump: “Did they send any money yet?”

Let’s get rid of, or use less, plastic! No, says coffee pods and 3d printers.

American squatters. First step is to establish a foothold. /s

Pirates are the new white hat heroes of the world now that all entrenched authority are the bad guys.
