Another thing that's different from my childhood:

How ubiquitous the was. It was in every doctor's office and in as many homes.

I don't remember the last time I saw a Readers Digest.

@vwbusguy
As fat as I know readers digest still exists and their children's magazine is still in production. The parents read Reader's Digest while the kids read Highlights. I had a subscription to it and Nintendo Power.

Been in and out of data centers all day. Primary and auxiliary cooling both failed in one and clocked in at 116F this morning ๐Ÿ˜ฉ.

@vwbusguy This sounds superhot! Stay hydrated and cool as it seems to be really warm. Might need to talk to one of those Socalsuse people and inquire about if one of them might still have a fancy sweat whisking shirt still in their swag stash.

I asked ChatGPT and another AI to generate qbsh scripts and even gave it commands like CALC and PIP to incorporate. It clearly had bash in the crunchbang. When I suggested it wasn't qbsh, it apologized, removed that line and told me it was more using correct syntax and not "bash built-ins" and hallucinated qbsh commands that don't exist like GREP. It was pretty hilarious.

Me: "Oh, I can make that slightly faster with a bit of Perl."

Also me: "Don't you dare. Stop now and walk away, for the good of everyone who will ever look at this thing again."

I can at least assure you that the #qbsh code has no backdoor coded into it.

I have eaten at Outback Steakhouse 3 times this year, each time in a different month, and in different county, but I ordered the same thing each time (a blooming onion and a prime rib).

Here's my ranking for best to worst of the three:

  • Brea, Orange County
  • Arcadia, Los Angeles County
  • Oxnard, Ventura County

@vwbusguy seems legit. i havent eaten at the Oxnard one since before the millennium turned.

@vwbusguy I found Bandits to be pretty consistant, another place that i havent been to in decades is some place called The Nugget. You might have easier access to one.

@vwbusguy Wood Ranch use to do Prime rib but they ceased doing that decades ago. The only other place i know of nearby would be The Sportsman. However i hear their quality can be hit and miss. I now slow cook some prime rib from Vallertta on my BBQ with some home grown mesquite wood to smoke the living daylights out of it.

So i did a stream of QBSH by @vwbusguy over on twitch. Ended up doing some work to make the long term video on youtube something special. Custom thumbnail and subtitles!

Here i go looking for some information on why my video acceleration is broken on Intel ARC on Pop-os and who do i stumble across? @vwbusguy

Not much was found to be useful so alas i will have to suffer with broken hardware video acceleration.

Line in the image of what is suppose to be a horizon view of the Los Angeles Skyline via the Interstate 110 looking north.
