To clarify, I was not seeking modern alternatives. Some of you seem to have spent too much time thinking on this.

Oh, now it's a 900% match? Good thing I didn't donate at the paltry 600% match level! Think how much more valuable my donation will be when the match hits 1200% or 1500%!! It's hypothetical, of course, because I give nothing to the fuckers that send unsolicited text messages to my phone.

Yes, Biden is old. This isn't news. He can spend his remaining years sitting by a fire in the White House, sipping tea, for all I care. The team around him getting things done will be mostly competent, and mostly not terrible people. Trump and his ilk would be horrible in character and inept.

Any signs of escaping magic smoke? Is that still a thing, or was that mostly a 90s problem?

Well, that'll teach me to snark at sports...er, non-ball. I didn't know that, so you've improved my day with added learning! Sounds like the goal isn't so much catching the steeple as the poison ivy you meet along the way. :)

What I don't understand is that every steeple I've seen has been firmly attached to a building—usually a church. They don't move! How is it a challenge to chase them?

I could have unpacked the rest of the boxes from my move a year and a half back, and found my 3D printer. Or I could use the need to print something as an excuse to upgrade to a new printer which will show up on my doorstep with no searching. I was not as frugal in this instance as I might hope.

I mostly just read a book on flights. I did, once, come across a channel on the entertainment system that showed the readouts of the flight instruments overlaid on the route map, and as a pilot, I spent more time following along than was strictly necessary.

There's an interesting startup that I hope succeeds, and considered investing in. Today, they expanded investment options to allow me to use cryptocurrency to invest. Oh, thanks, I still hope you succeed, but I'm not putting real money anywhere near that.

I don't believe many of the anti-trans advocates would acknowledge that there really are kids (or adults) who are trans and need treatment. It's easier for them to pretend it's all made up, and nobody is really trans. There is very little good faith in any of their arguments.

If your kids understand that you don't want them using computers, that means that they'll only do it in secret, at their friends' houses, away from your guidance, and if they find themselves in over their head, they won't come to you for help.

When we were younger, computers were locked away in separate rooms, and smart phones (or even dumb mobile phones didn't exist). We used the tools of the world around us, and kids these days need to be using the tools of the world around them.

A few weeks ago, digsafe marked the gas line (yellow) down the street I live on. Today, I noticed the addition of water (blue) line markings. I suspect my street is about to be torn up, but still no sewer (green) line markings, yet.

I've resisted the multi-monitor urge, partly to preserve the portable option. I can use my iPad as a secondary display, and some hotel TVs let you plug HDMI into them. Enjoy the impromtu vacation!

There's a strong "let me speak to the manager" vibe about going to the host of a radio show to answer a question she could easily google the answer for, even if we ignore the racism implicit in the question.

I presume there's a bear in that picture, but I can't find him. Perhaps something that celebrates his stealthiness?

Idiots. It's their money, I guess, but I don't see Tesla getting any better under Elmo. I'm sure this will be a huge boost to employee moral at Tesla, though. At least for one employee.

Apple gives Pages the ability to save documents in MS Word format, if one chooses. Pages has been around for long enough that Word could easily support the option of reading those files. Seems the one not being inclusive is Microsoft.

I keep hoping this was more of Elon blowing smoke out his ass to try to influence the vote, and the final result will deny him. It's an insane plan, and it makes no fiscal sense.

Reeet with how old you are using a vague proxy. The car I learnt to drive in had a button on the floor, activated by tapping one's left foot, to toggle the high beam lights, as was common in contemporary North American cars. The winshield washer was actuated by a manual plunger on the dash.

That would be extra hassle for me, since my shift key IS the d key (and the k key). If I tap them, they send the letters, and if I hold them, they act as shift keys.

Sucks that you had the dissapointing experience, but sounds like you got some entertainment out of it. I wonder how many bad RE agents will just phone it in until they quit the field, given the recent changes to the commission system.

And why have part of the fold flat on the table if you're going to pair it with an external keyboard? Laptop keyboards are still marginally better than on-screen keyboards.
