Should I upgrade from elm to pine?

The worst part is knowing you can’t afford to and yet being forced to watch your elderly parents/friends who might be able afford to but can’t because of their health and/or the need to save their money for assisted living (which gets more and more expensive each year).

I’m not suicidal, but as I watch my parents age I think I will be. I have known several recently deceased who were miserable for the last couple of years of their lives. People who if they had been pets, we would have euthanized. It’s sobering and depressing.

1973 gang. I have dementia now so I don’t even know how old I am. Someone tells me I am 207 but it doesn’t seem right.

I am looking forward to someone suing YouTube for deceptive advertising after they get ads on premium.

The story is done. Even when it wasn’t, the game felt like you were getting eight paragraphs of story per season spread over one paragraph per week.

I mostly pvp, the population is so bad that matchmaking has necessarily become terrible or there would be no matches. Every lobby has outliers on the high and low skill. The algorithm seems to put the six best players on the same team. I am either slaughtering the other team or getting slaughtered. A competitive match is a super rare occurrence. Anyway the lack of players makes the experience bad which is causing a death spiral. Anyone new is virtually guaranteed a bad experience, because most of the people left are the sweats.

I don’t know why I still play. Habit I guess. I have a huge backlog of games I ought to be playing instead. I game to relax and investing in the learning curve of a new game doesn’t feel very relaxing.

Obviously police departments need super expensive laser weapon systems to shoot down drones. I hear companies like General Atomics, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Northrup Grumman, and Blue Halo already make these systems. Everyone knows Congress loves spending money on big defense contractors.

Smallpox was definitely one of the things that made America great.

I got permabanned for saying I would like to see how Eisenhower would treat some Nazi marchers in Wisconsin. Apparently, that is not a commentary on how far the Republicans have shifted, but is actually advocating violence. I haven’t been supplying Reddit with free content since. Their loss, I had a pretty decent amount of karma, so I probably was contributing to the popularity of their site.

I too fake an accent when I am carefully planning an assassination. I hope he is already somewhere with no extradition treaty.

If I was the defense attorney, I think this would be the test case for instructing the jury on jury nullification (which will get you sanctioned at a minimum and probably disbarred if you’re the attorney that tries it). I think defendants ought to be entitled to instruct the jury about the possibility. I personally would never disclose that I believe in it during voir dire and also would never vote to convict on some crimes.

I too am Spartacus.

FBI searching for the killer: United Healthcare denied 2.8M insurance claims in the last year and most of those people have families, so it looks like we have around 10M suspects.

As a stereotypical American, I thought Corsica was Northern Ireland and Sardinia was Ireland. Thanks for clearing up my confusion.

"I’ve heard of RFK Jr. and he says vaccines are bad. He’s more famous than scientists, so I believe him for exposing their corruption. "

I can’t wait for humanity to go extinct.

Because people don’t like jumping out of windows to their death.

Used to be Dallas was pretty famous- Kennedy shooting, cheerleaders, and a titular TV show.

I’d say Salem, Massachusetts (pop just under 45k) is pretty famous thanks to the witch trials.

An older reference, but a meritorious one. We will need to delve deeper into this dungeon to determine how you master it. Perhaps there’s a tome of rules to guide our journey into this pursuit.

Interest declined when they discovered the immigration process was non-trivial. I checked into Canada back in 2016. Didn’t bother this time. I think a lobotomy might be the answer. It would be nice if I could just have my empathy surgically removed.

I use VsVim when I use VS, but I do most of my code development in Vim. I use VS for a particular product that I support. It works well enough that I can’t complain to much, but someone else much more knowledgeable about the tool set it up for me.

My primary development environment is a centos7.3 virtual box with various options (Eclipse). I mostly just use raw gdb because I have been using it long enough that I don’t have to think about it too much and it’s pretty portable knowledge.

I had a Microsoft Tivo competitor that worked with DirecTV in the early 2000s that I really liked. Visual Studio and VS Code aren’t bad for what they are. The Zune was pretty awesome. I have had some good times on all generations of XBOX.

I guess what I am saying is that despite my hatred for MS, they haven’t been completely awful. Definitely not in the Comcast and various phone companies (I would like to single out Verizon for being particularly scummy) tier of hatred.
