I worked at Gateway during this era and always saw that in the light of me quitting when XP came out and drove me crazy. FCKGW indeed.

My company recently gave us a day off for wellbeing. My initial plan was to spend the day in the forest, but it was cold and rainy. So instead, I did as you described. I took an old warn paperback that I had long ago picked up at a Little Free Library and have been struggling to finish, went to a family owned diner, got some comfort food, and sat for an hour and read my book (and did not use my phone). It was wonderful.

Pair that with Poe's album Haunted https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haunted_%28Poe_album%29

> Haunted is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Poe, released in 2000 after a five-year hiatus from her debut album Hello in 1995. The self-produced album was created as a tribute to her father, and counterpart to her brother Mark Z. Danielewski's novel House of Leaves.

That book is definitely something you have to see in print.


Speaking of relevant games, there's also a Roblox game that my son has been into called Backrooms With Guns, and now I understand it a lot more.

I see others have mentioned Superliminal too, which was great.


I think maybe we're not living in the same world.

GH notification search doesn't search the title or description of the notifications. https://docs.github.com/en/subscriptions-and-notifications/r...

GH cannot search code that exists in non-default branches. Have fun responding to the next supply chain compromise in any org that has repos with multiple supported branches.


So some people say it feels slower, there's been some incidents recently, you're missing a few features and Zig moved out, that's it? Wow, ruined, completely unusable, I have no idea how I've been working 8 hours a day using Github in these conditions.

Ruined may be a strong word but it is much less usable than it was previously. Frequent outages, lots of weird bugs.

It no longer feels like a polished product.


You're right. Those are completely separate millions of dollars to be made. Best not let them overlap at all, even if some of us intuitively touch our laptop screens to scroll a window now and then, especially when carrying it around.

They overlap plenty where it makes sense. There was a time where Mac users were worried that Apple was going to merge MacOS and IpadOS. Nobody wants that.

Nothing has made me want to read classic literature more than AI. For the first time in probably over a decade I even went to my local used bookstore with a list of books to buy, but sadly none of them were in stock. I have had a bit of luck at little free libraries though.

While drinking Brawndo.

Let's not kid ourselves, the lethality isn't even that precise.


It is quite precise, it just isn't accurate.

On the one hand, they can do a perfect triple-tap. On the other hand, the perfect triple-tap hit a girls' school rather than a military base...


"Why not neither?"
