Forgive any typos or poor grammar or misspelled words. I just typed it out and didn’t edit. If anyone actually reads it, maybe I'll go back and edit the mistakes.

Not even close. The oracle never says that the one is a man. In fact, that’s almost the opposite. The one is a program and Smith is part of that same program. The Architect is the coding program for the Machine. The Architect wrote the program called The Oracle to investigate the idea of free will and why, or if, it…

This is not bad advice. Except I would say you should highlight updating the OS only once. Mac OS used to make older machines faster. OS X had gone the way of Windows and makes older machines slower. Sad but true.

One of my primary thoughts is the mind vs. matter debate. Morality could be genetic and part of human evolution, or it could be a construct of the mind. If humans ALWAYS have access to the construct (Which is the code), then we at least have a chance at controlling AI. If AI can successfully block human access to its…

Yep! You are doing it wrong. I have had every iteration of the Mag Safe and never had one fray. My idiot brother in law? Well... he has broken a few. Stop wrapping them like you’re trying to choke a cat.

Well, I lived on Capitol Hill when Newt shut the gov. down and I promise you, it’s not a very successful strategy. Sure, we all went skiing because of the blizzard, and that was fun, but it launched what ended up transitioning from the bs contract with America and Dick Armey’s tea party. The media on Ried Pelossi’s…

Well, W had a R majority congress for 6 years, so how much did they really have to compromise. Yet I didn’t see them shut the gubment down.

Pancakes and Glaucoma, a Bakers story. By Mary Jane Butterworth.

2014: winning the EPL, then playing the World Cup, then The African cup last winter aged YaYa. That’s a lot of soccah to play over 30 in a body that big. He shouldn’t HAVE to cover so much field at this point in his career. Plus, he wasn’t much of a problem at the beginning of the season when everyone was healthy.…

You want to understand Edward? Then pay closer attention to Second Baptist in Houston.

first, don’t quote GRRM talking about Tolkien. George may be a good writer, but his quotes about Aragorn are total horse shit. How he would have ruled wisely would have meant writing more books. Tollers had school to teach and was finishing up the Silmarillion, and, ohhh... still practicing philology and writing…

No. The worst thing is that they will still be aggies.

You didn’t try Saranac? That’s too bad. Its awesome. Especially on draft.

Hey Bro! Want to be helpful? Take your damn helmet off, let the guy see your face and eyes and explain yourself. Then, maybe he will trust you. As my friend would say “You have the social skills of a billy goat”. Must be a millennial.

I hope all you panicky naysayers realize that people like me, who have implanted stimulator devices (mine is a Boston Sci. Spectra) have been doing our due diligence on the medical safety of this type of tech for years. And there are decades of data and trials with very thorough reviews and very competitive research…

Not so fast. All of my Bosnian friends who came here during the war in the 90’s said they did everything they could to smuggle Budweiser into the country and they still drink it today. I drank Budvar in Budvar and yes, it is better, but to them, the taste was close enough and it made them feel free and rebellious. I…

I will never stop coming to the Kinja sites as long as I get my fill of this: “...and the stripes of freedom”. The laughter and inner giggliness I get as a middle aged Gen X’er, reassures me that our generational fight for cynicism and mockery was not in vain. Thank you Mate.

Oooh great, new way to film amatuer porn without your pesky neighbors knowing that they are the newest online celebreties!

What era are you talking about, because most music was recorded on reel tape and that has always been the standard for analog recorded sound and dynamics.

Huh, yes it does. The growth rate from 30-50 is not anywhere close to post 1950; which is the point. The curve post 1950 is so substantially steeper than 30-50 it’s laughable to think anyone in 1950 could predict the hyper growth. Maybe this one will help you better:
