You're a time traveler, what would you do if you went back in time to make the most of it?

I'd go back to the 1970s, the dawning of personal computer growth in it's beginnings. I'd take every single idea and patent from today and collect them all in a multiple series of binders. I would spend weeks holed up in some apartment, jotting notes, re-directing credits to me....

That would stand out a lot. Probably better to just bring a couple hundred dollars and buy bitcoin when it was worth practically nothing.

Not surprising. Restaurants have become even more expensive and people already don’t have money to waste. Plus many of us are remote or hybrid.

Going to have to disagree, Teleroboxer and Red Alert were awesome.

As for why they’re getting downvoted, criticizing cars or the use of cars tends to get a lot of negative feedback.

I have an Old Man Mountain Divide for my rear rack on my Haanjo. Also have an Old Man Mountain Pizza Rack that I use as the front rack on my commuter bike. They are both axle mounted which strengthens the whole setup. The Divide also has a lower pannier top rail that keeps the top of the rack more accessible for mounting stuff on top.

My only issue with their rack system is price. The racks themselves aren’t cheap and adding the thru axle brings the price up even more. I decided I’d rather spend more once rather than end up having issues while away from home.

Consider an ebike to supplement your car for shorter trips. I’ve just opted to ride my bikes more.

As someone who has dealt with a couple dozen Surface devices in a corporate setting, I cannot recommend them. They’re fine when they work. When they have issues though, they are practically impossible to repair. Keyboard port issues, dock connection issues, bricked devices, and even expanding batteries are all issues I’ve run into. When you have an issue, Microsoft will just swap it out for a different one rather than fix the device.

Thank you for that, definitely an interesting read. I like that they mention that even unpopular games may have people that love it.

Currently watching Yuru Camp S03 and Unnamed Memories. Unnamed Memories was a total surprise for me.

We use Slack for those of us on the IT team, but Teams for everyone else. I despise Teams.

Amelie. It is by far my favorite movie that isn’t animated.

How to train your dragon (1, 2, and 3). These are my favorite American animated films.

My Neighbor Totoro. Favorite Japanese animated film.

What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?

For me it’s driving while under the influence. If you couldn’t tell, I like me some ganja. However I have long since held the belief that it is utterly insane to drive while under the influence of most substances, with maybe nicotine and caffeine being the exception. All too often I see other stoners smoking and driving,...

There are two reasons why I refuse to play MTG now: Wizards of the Coast is shitty and the experience of playing at my local game store.

It’s an issue with media outlets sensationalizing everything. The authors of the study even say that it’s premature to call this a cure in humans. It is a nice step forward though.

This is the first band that came to mind when I saw this thread. Even though I liked their music when it came out, I would feel gross listening to it now.

You did a great job, it can be difficult to capture an eclipse well.

Apparently it’s just a tool to talk about Linux for me.

I don’t think you’ve actually read any of the comments in this thread. Everything is a legit discussion of EVs and how Musk is handling this. Nobody is bashing China. If anyone is being criticized in this thread, it’s Musk.

No, because the Dreamcast was cool in the first place. Xbox peaked with the 360 and has gone downhill since.

I have a 10" width rack cabinet where my Proxmox cluster (three mini Lenovo Thinkcentre) lives. I’m currently designing a 10" mount to hold an old phone so that I can see my server monitoring/status through the glass of the door.

3D printing is great for stuff like that.

If they’re buying the cheapest possible IKEA furniture, sure, it’s less reliable. Buy the mid range solid wood stuff.

Kurt Cobain has probably been gone longer than these people have been alive.
