Unless you were early eighties baby and introduced to BBS at a remarkably young age like me. Oregon Trail generation FTW.

I vote for phairy.

Correct!

Nah, that’s more related to the episode named ‘Lower Decks’ I think.

Interesting read. Thank you.

Wife and I watched through it for the first time last month.

We watched it for the second time last month as well.

Actually, we started our third watch last night.

Same. Could use a reread. What a great book.

What a donut.

Thank you. It’s hard, but it’s worth it.

Had to say goodbye to my cat this weekend.

The past month or so, he’d become very demanding for attention in the middle of the day, crawling all over the desk and nibbling at my hands if they were typing or using the mouse rather than loving on him.

Every day at almost the same time. And I gave him what he wanted every time.

My Monday would certainly be better if he was still doing it.

Goldeneye did allow this. Crazy. Hard to use other buttons though.

Perhaps your award was the friends you made all along…

If you’re still using live journal in 2024, you should win SOMETHING.

Yep. I found it fascinating. I think the version I had probably had a forward from Asimov talking about how we were wrong about guesses about Venus.

I don’t remember much else from the story except this, and the big reveal of the whodunnit. (Or more accurately the how).

There was a young adult sci fi series by Asimov called ‘Lucky Starr’ and I remember Venus was Oceanic in that one. Old old series.

Thanks, I’m leaning towards getting started with Linux and then investigating options from there. The opensuse someone else recommended also looks interesting.

Thanks. I’ve heard of the bootloader issue so I was planning on separate drives for Linux vs windows.

I love powershell, so I’m not afraid of the CLI, but it is daunting.

Thank you!

Thanks!
