OH YEEAH BAYBEE!!

THEN YOU ARE LOST, ANAKIN!

…this is just staging plausible deniability for the russian asset…

…nothing wrong with dying; when you die it’s not your problem anymore…

…problems are for the folks left behind…

…trinitrons are curved, just two-dimensionally…

…if you’re into paper books (and a hefty table) the DK complete world atlas includes a lot of geographic information, or if you prefer a dryer, more-authoritative presentation, the times world atlas is the grandaddy of the format…

…it looks like DK also offers a digital version of their previous editon…

(i have the millenium editions of both atlases, and they’re both fantastic tomes, but i think the DK complete atlas is more of what you’re looking for)

…it’s what he avoids: russian carrots are accompanied by russian sticks and trump’s kompromat runs decades deep, capital-punishment deep at this point…

…his only course of survival is to double-down on whatever his handlers ask of him…

…back in the CRT era i needed at least a 72Hz refresh rate to not feel any discomfort; that doesn’t exactly correlate with framerates on modern LCD displays but i think it’s a good proxy for the threshold of general perceptiblity…

…are greater framerates smoother?..sure, especially in my peripheral vision, but 72 FPS is generally good-enough beyond which returns start diminishing…

…is there a good version of pilotwings64 available anywhere other than native hardware?..

…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
