Nothing more to see here folks, move along

What are these "partners" of which you speak?

in about 1955, when it was fresh and new.
But Rock Songs have been made about him since then.
You see, the moviegoing public has this notion that for $175e6 they're entitled to something new, that hasn't been done before. Silly of them, I know.

and I've taken to doing so semi-automatically after having stuff splattered allover places like /usr/local/share/ or such a couple of times.

There're (or at least were, when I had it) several times as many titles available on DVD than on streaming.
Yeah, all the mainstream stuff is streamed, but the really weird, offbeat crazy shite is only on DVD. The mail thing is a hassle, but I saw such strange things that I may go back to it as the streaming isn't holding my interest so well anymore.

I see I failed to point out that what will kill it will be somebody offering something at least as cool but without any censorship & ads.

to kill it.

They're already undergoing censorship pains as the Feministas and their SJWs undertake to erase all opposing viewpoints. An arms race with the adblockers will stick a knife in their back when they need it most.

My TV broke, so screw it.

And some of their bosses don't just cash out for new machinery every decade.
My own boss' policy is to run the old junk until it breaks down.

Neither of us have 64 bit computers.
Neither of us even have computers new enough to do useful virtualization (ie run WinXP ina box).
Neither of us have money to buy new computers.

None of our American presidents even slightly resemble Spock...

It's called "Microsoft Windows(tm)(R)(c)"

As I said above, that's no big deal.
My guitarist concurs. It's not really hot until you're past 105.

Apparently this 40C stuff is coming off the interior with low humidity? One of the standing jokes here in Arizona is the postcard of a dried, bleached animal skeleton (it really doesn't matter what - cow, vulture, human, WTH) laying out in the desert under the blazing sun. The caption reads: "But it's a _dry_ heat!".

My (American) wife likens it to opening the oven door: storm-force gusts of air at >100 F and 5% humidity. Bloody brilliant for drying your clothes: by the time you've hung the last item on the line, the first one you hung is bone-dry ;)

See that's the climate in Phoenix - from about Easter to Halloween. At least you guys have the sense not to live there. I don't know who decided this was a worthwhile place to build a city. The natives abandoned it 1000 years ago...

As I speak its 40 degrees outside in Melbourne. 39 tomorrow. My trick for cycle commuting is to jump in the shower in my cycling clothes right before I go, then pour most of my water on my skin when I feel hot. The body can only use 300ml per hour anyway and I carry about a litre.

40 degress and you're drenching yourself down? That's a tactic reserved for when you're too dehydrated to sweat anymore!
Oh, wait:

And for those few American readers of this site... that 40 is in Celcius - so it's over 100 degrees.

Right.
Lessee, another attempt at command-line bc.....
~$ echo "(40 *9/5 +32)" | bc // Knew there hadda be a way.
104
HAAAAAAhahahahahahah!!!!! As soon as you get moving, 104 is fairly comfortable.
I find 105 to be a sort of tipping point. Anything beyond that gets pretty bad. YMMV.
Try 114 or so - uh, ~$ echo "((114-32) *5/9)" | bc

  That's enough to cause little prickly sensations all over your body. I don't bother with the shower, because to walk outside in that covers me in sweat immediately. (Probably a conditioned response. Putting on my helmet, indoors inside the AC, will do the same.)

I agree that you cannot absorb water anywhere near fast enough to keep up with that kinda loss. 300ml/hour? I suck down well over a liter (2 extended-top bicycle bottles) in ten miles (maybe 45 minutes, in my old age), and have never lasted more than a couple of hours past 110. By that time we're looking at heavy dehydration, heat exhaustion and eventual heatstroke. On a Century ride (that's 100 _miles_)(in the spring, when it was only 100F) my pop had the foresight to weigh himself first. After riding all day and swilling water as fast as he could he'd lost ten pounds (about 5Kg).

And I imagine Melbourne is fairly near the coast? It was my understanding that temperatures in Oz (at least in the outback) pushed 120(F).
~$ echo "((120-32) *5/9)" | bc

Now that's HOT.
So if you wanna see what real, _deadly_ heat is, take a ride inland tomorrow.
