…a little bit ferrous, yes i really do think…

…anyone with a housemaid is a red flag…

…that’s pretty much my improvisational style, everything eyeballed, nothing measured: sometimes things turn out amazing but of course the cost of those happy surprises is that i’ll never make it the same way again; couldn’t if i tried…

…i dated a girl who dogmatically followed published recipes, considered any deviations anathema to the authors’ labor developing them, and she was horrified to watch me cook…

…let me introduce you to single cask-strength malts: one drop, drawn delicately through your lips, let diffuse across your palate by capillary action, that’s how i learned to appreciate alcohol for the first time after four decades of not getting it…

…the great thing about cask-strength sipping whiskies is that one bottle can last years if kept properly sealed between pours…

…trump’s trivially manipulated: the next four years are china’s best shot and they know it…

…NCSA mosaic won the web, absolutely; in truth i think it gave a lot of us an excuse to upgrade from terminals and shell accounts…

…i remember going to our computer lab in the early nineties and seeing a flyer about this new protocol called the world wide web, thinking to myself in what way is that better than gopher?..

…it’s clearly a recently-filmed parody…

…now that looks like a fine place to celebrate my hundred-and-eleventh birthday…

…they can’t just casually mention the alan-lee-designed elven throne set at its head and not show it!..

take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
and build them a home, a little place of their own
the fletcher memorial home for incurable tyrants and kings
they could appear to themselves everyday on closed-circuit TV to make sure they’re still real
it’s the only connection they feel

…how about bluetooth in an '81 98?..

…that’s the POWER model: the unit posted above is the consumer version with the SX chip, no math coprocessor and fewer function keys…

…well he’s not…

…so you’ve never played waverace: that’s the look of the brightly-lit tropical island environment for the first course, which immediately shifts a hazy muted marsh on the second course, then a stormy industrial-port waterfront, then a spectacular urban night course, each presenting entirely different takes on ambient lighting, dominant environmental color pallets, and even water and atmospheric weather conditions…

…standard issue alongside steve miller band greatest hits…

…i don’t think he wants anything other than to keep uncle vlad at bay…

…i parsed that as ‘once a month’ and pondered your ensuing lifestyle…

…NeXTstep was built on mach and, although i’m unsure if any antecedents remain in macOS, it was certainly production-ready in its day; i remember a couple of decades ago there were stopgap versions of the HURD built on top of mach instead of their own microkernel but i thought that was only ever intended as a temporary workaround…

…i presume on that basis that sustained developer interest was its greatest hurdle, no pun intended…

edit: …is this the post-mortem you mentioned?..
