TLDR - "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Unfornicate the shitty sound mixing and make dialog understandable instead of blowing out the explosions and SF? Of course, the dialog would have to be worth listening to, but that might be a bridge too far...

Only if they are right next to your junk!

What about trying something like this: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdevelopers.slashdot.or...

I postulate that Excel would be as "easy" as a VB4 program...??? Not a troll, am I missing something?

I'm hesitant to migrate. I've been eligible for the free update for a couple of years now, and it is an option that shows in Windows Update, but to date, I declined. The " PC Health Check app" says my hardware fully supports Windows 11, but it declines to tell me what apps will have issues, which is my main hesitation as I know I will spend days and money getting what just works today to work in the updated OS. I still have Adobe CS 5, I know it is old, but I only use it for specialized astrophotography. I don't want to spend $30/month for an Adobe subscription. I have a dozen other programs that I paid for. I don't want to be on an upgrade treadmill. I want everything to "just work (tm)" when I need it. Just like the tools in my shop, my oven, and my water heater. Windows is a tool, not a lifestyle. I would pay $25/year or whatever to get Win 10 security updates past October or whatever.

Is there a way to do that? https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.makeuseof.com%2Fhow-...

I've been resisting the urge to upgrade as my Win 10 install is very stable.

So, pretend I still wear a mask when I drive alone in my internal combustion vehicle. Is this a big deal or not?

Cue the commercial application "within three to five years" trope.

Seriously, not trolling here. Is that not what philosophers have been doing for thousands of years since we had time to sit by the fire with a full belly and no immediate preditors?

I'm not saying that AI are/should be philosophers, but are they not the ultimate mirror that reflects what we tell them to think?

One of these things is not like the other, and I don't know what to believe today, January 2, 2025. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wsj.com%2Fopinion%2Fgr... [wsj.com] I actually, as a human and a person who preferers not to shit in my own nest, would like to know how to best live my life - (new years resolutions and all that...)

I'm sorry i still see a uni-party. Until this is not a zero sum game (*star trek economy?) you must follow the money. Graft is easier than work - change my mind!

Graft, CO2, or Thorium/Uranium?
