Slackware was my first distro. I was working with Solaris and NCR/Unix at the time. I had some issues and a friend who has a 3 digit ID (Hi Matt ) recommended Slashdot as a resource. At that time it was a HUGE technical pool with working admins and engineers abundant. I got what I needed and I've been a LinuxHead ever since. I still have Slack running on a Digital Alpha machine that does nothing...
If you show up at work sick, you do less, and make more mistakes, but mostly you'll give your illness to others. You openly cough in the conference room and you get sent home.
It is a wee bit of an over reaction but following covid nobody wants to take a chance.

I personally hate discord for other reasons, but there are all kinds of places that refer you to their discord server for help or support. The need for an ID always pissed me off, but now needing a REALID is goning to impact that even more...
I avoid dealing with entities via Discord, that includes buying or supporting.
Good point. I usually read at 5 pt font which is smaller than the default but your point is very valid. I checked and GR doesn't track anything of real value beyond the number of pages in a printed volume, but many are e-books only so who knows...
According to Goodreads via my Kindle...
I read 85,323 pages in 155 books in 2025, down from 104,792 pages in 236 books in 2024. I was mostly retired in 2024 taking care of my mother.
I know I read more than a few physical books but I am too lazy to input them manually into Goodreads.
umm wow...
Loosen your grip and let some blood flow...it was a joke,
perhaps not a good one but sheesh...
LOL with all the sterling content hosted on abnormal I can't believe you haven't made hundreds...
Some of your content is older than I am and I remember Tandy, Commodore and Amiga, PDP'S, System38 and TPF.

I can't believe someone hasn't thrown themselves off the fender or hood of a waymo and sued. I can't see a judge or jury finding in Waymo's favor...
Umm, they "need" the ignorant poor to provide legitmacy for themselves. I can see a Govt. trying to implement some baseline nutritional suplement for the teeming masses. Maybe they will call it somthing cool...like Soylent...
You are correct. have always had turn on and turn off, but that was just the switch in a device. If I understand the summary...F the VergePayWall. This allows you to add a switch with user defineable actions, that can include multiple actions or devices.
A single local button to turn on my PC/Printer/Speakers versus voice or app.
If you make a [AR-15] arm motion will you get capital punishment ?
OMG..what happens if you 'mime' throwing a grenade at someone ? Will it be a war-crime ?
Exactly, its not even a very good plane. Terrible range, no space for, well anything but you...
No such thing as truly unlimited...every line has a rating and there are only so many minutes in the day.
