I’ve been using windows all my life and I’ve never seen anyone not say this about “their” version. Except ME. Fuck ME.
But seriously my dad refused to switch to Windows from DOS for the longest time. 95? The best. 98? Can’t upgrade. Xp or die. 7 forever. 10 or bust. In 10 years it will be people clamoring over 11 and refusing to switch.
Not the person you responded to but you can turn any shoe into this. Lock laces. Instead of tying my shoes daily you can slip them on and off and they always stay exactly perfect. I adjust them mayyybe once a year. They’re like 10 bucks and make my shoes feel amazing.
This is what I do. I got a flushing ear thing specifically with the nozzle for ears on Amazon for like 10 bucks and it’s a game changer. I gotta do it yearly.
Is George RR Martin developing this game?
Jokes aside the 2004 game was great. Can’t wait to see what they do with modern tech. Never tried the ttrpg but I’m a fan of vampires.

Every time I see Michael Caine in the news I have to watch this
My wife and I watched the first episode so far and we did get a few chuckles from banter between Nicholas Lyndhurst and Kelsey Grammer. It honestly wasn’t as horrible as we were thinking it might be. Especially once the Freddy and Frasier heart to heart happened. Kitchen scenes of someone walking in and out to comedic timing was a great call back, and “I’m no stranger to an underperforming dinner party”.
We’re still on the fence because the lack of David Hyde Pierce is felt sorely. Niles’ son is not doing any favors for the show. The quick gloss over of Charlotte was annoying. The forced “how do we get Frasier to live with Freddy” plot was missing a lot. The original set-up to Niles pawning off his dad to Frasier before he met Daphne was amazing, this was just kinda feeling tacked on.
Most of our favorite Frasier moments come from the “MASH effect” or the quick switch from hilarious to somber stories. The digging in to the psyche of why a character is acting the way they are and analyzing it so everyone can come out better at the end is what we loved. I hope they keep that aspect going. There is a glimpse of that with the Freddy story I just hope it doesn’t end there.
This is the best measure (preventative). Carb heavy lunches will wreck you. Save the carbs for after work, fall asleep on the couch watching TV, then wake up with a sore back.
In my experience, everything else on thinkpads can and will be abused by my users but the trackpoint is one thing I’ve never had to replace. Most of my new hires don’t even know what it does.
I’m not confused why they’re doing it, I’m confused why they think b&m stores are the way to go. I’m sure they can subsidize any potential losses from other money making areas but why not just sell the merch online? Storefront overhead ain’t cheap.
I don’t have a tablet but have used e-ink readers for a decade. Just curious what use cases you use your tablet for? I’m in the market for a new reader, but maybe something more robust. I’m using a Kobo Clara HD which hits a lot of sweet spots but it has a lot of quirks. I’m also worried a tablet might be too big for bedtime reading, do you read with yours at all?
Oh it’s fantastic, just wanted to throw in at least one reputable film
Take your pick, some of these are actual movies, some pretend to be (looking at you Suburban Sasquatch). You’ll have some laughs regardless of the pick.
Genuine question as a person who’s watched Frasier at least a dozen times, what’s making people hopeful that it’ll be any good?
I ask because the sequels to fan loved shows and movies over the past decade have all fallen short, seemed like cash grabs, don’t capture what made the original good or fun, etc. I really can’t think of any that worked out for me (viewership numbers aside). Am I being pessimistic unnecessarily? Are people being too hopeful? Idk. I’ve been burned before and am going in with that expectation.
My favorite thing relating to this was seeing a person on r/conspiracy quoting men in black. “A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.”
The irony was completely lost on them.
If this is wrong I don’t wanna be right
That’s a great observation about you hanging out around tractors as a kid and having that sense of awe. I had a similar thing as a kid with my grandpa working on semis and old cars. I really hope they do pull the game off despite my brain telling me this is all a house of cards. But exploring ships and space is so damn fun, this is the closest game to that. Tried all the X games and Elite and everything in between and SC, broke as it is, still has me holding out hope. At the very least if they never make it to a full release I hope someone else tries something similar. Starfield is fun but not scratching the same itch.
I do the same thing and have tons of issues with how they’re making the game. That being said it’s far from vaporware. The experience is pretty jank at the moment but 2 years ago when I played a lot it was stable and you could sink a lot of hours into an actual gameplay experience, which is far from vaporware from my understanding. Theoretically you still can but I’m waiting to play until it’s more stable. It’s still alpha yeah but when it works it’s an actual game, albeit far from expectations and promises.
People should absolutely criticize the development but calling it fraud seems a stretch, they clearly have a product it’s just like 6 years away probably from being what they talked about 6 years ago lol. It seems more like mismanagement and development bloat. The insane backers notwithstanding. Even if they dump development now I had some fun times with $45 spent. It’s certainly an interesting experience to behold, I just think the hyperbole around the game can be ridiculous. My two cents.
Yeah dried plums. Idk why it suddenly becomes a new word, something French I think?
Windows 2000 was for enterprise, not home use. 8 was for mobile & touchscreens (at first) and that failed miserably yes, hence their 8.1 release. Just like ME they tried hopping on a bandwagon and it flopped. Two major flops in 23 years is not a bad record. But my point remains that when whatever new OS comes out, people look back at the last one with rose tinted glasses.
