Yeah it was a little dig at this very site. Somebody should code shit so that the page will still load if one of the ad content servlets doesn't, because that's what seems to bog that shit down the worst.

Yeah… Moore's Law has run out long before anyone expected. Solid state drives swap data a little faster but don't have any better capacity. Quantum computers aren't what everyone thought there'd be. Our materials science has basically stalled. We need an unobtanium (theoretical superconductor).

But he's not wrong about the Florida part. Today is the first day this week above freezing, and I'd STILL never go back to that humid, festering swamphole.

Oh man. Ybor City. Lotta good times there until I aged out of the club and bar scene. Lotta wild, drunken girls. There's a reason Girls Gone Wild was mostly filmed there and in Clearwater. I'd never go back though. There's just nothing in Florida for me.

He told me I haven't had healthcare in two years so mine's being penalized.

Or to put it another way, have you ever known anyone who lived in a really shit place and their living there only shit it up worse? And then you ask them, "so why do you leave shit all over? There's dirty plates in the living room. Your closet reeks of festering laundry. Your fridge is bricked with empty pizza boxes.…

It's the only place we got.

I'm astounded from time to time when a help file actually contains the string of text I enter, or a site's search function actually works.

I didn't bother with the internet until 2003. It was finally useful then.

Yeah that I could see. The statement I'm having issue with is, "these new ones were designed for atmospheric flight." They were already space craft.

That I get. But why the reverse? A TIE built for freefall in the STU is gonna have 0G gear on it, because it's obviously cheap as hell, and NOT having it would make the craft less functional. But I've heard this a number of times. "These TIEs were built for atmosphere too." The others would have been already! What do…

There are long, long lists of people whom I would pay good money to see Michelle Obama knock the fuck out.

Actually, upon review, I responded in the context of you mentioning your secret macbook folder. Assuming your wife isn't reading these comments, I think you're cool.

Well shit. Just go hide then.

This also escalated very strangely. I'm thinking you had some bad conversations between now and when you were talkin about porn.

I'm thinkin those people have bigger issues than porn.

Recent. It saddens me as much as it saddens you, but 30 years or more is "classic."

I hear they did a reboot recently with Chuck Norris.

This is that movie set in Japan, right?

I'm just asking the important questions.
