“…or is this actually a thing now?”

Always has been.

I’ll see myself out.

I had to scroll way too far to find this. Especially considering that I have a desktop with full disk encryption, I don’t worry about it. If anyone ever did break into my house and take my computer, they would have to unplug it first; at that point, the disk would encrypt, and they’d have some really nice hardware which sucks for me, but that’s all they’d get.

Meanwhile, Twitch, a company owned by Amazon, gives me ads for things that I’m not even interested in. I mean, they totally fail at targeted advertising. I got an ad for the VA yesterday, which is fine, but it can’t be targeted at me because I’m not a veteran. The military wouldn’t even let me in because I have asthma. Never change, Twitch.

My grandpa talked about doing this back in the 1930s with his brothers, and by that I mean, they put their neighbor’s cow on top of their barn, somehow. I think this is one of those things that, in one form or another, has always existed and always will.

The markings remind me a lot of my girl. I’m not sure if I’d call my girl polite, lol.

You mean you’ve accepted that the cat is in charge and not the other way around, right? Because yeah, that is what usually happens.

Beautiful.

Subject-object-verb or object-subject-verb?

Greebles. Only cats can see them.

I used to work nights at a grocery store. The break room coffee was made by a recovering meth addict, and was basically the next “best” thing if only in theory.

I feel like maybe it’s worth mentioning that NixOS doesn’t have this problem. Please don’t pillory me. Anyway.

The machine I had before this had 4 GB, lol. That’s why I put so much of the budget into RAM when I built this one.

Shaving what little hair I have left on my head is so much more convenient, lol.

Okay, fine. I have 192 GB of RAM.

I can remember saving my allowance for however long I had to, to be able to get the game I wanted, and then riding my bike to Walmart, or the used game store, or wherever it was, and then riding home with a stupid grin on face. I feel bad for kids who will grow up to be adults who won’t have memories like that.

This is amazing.

I hate having any more tabs open than I absolutely need. Right now, I have none. I’m probably gonna either fire up a YouTube video or find someone to watch on Twitch here in a minute, at which point I’ll have one tab open. I’m not gonna say exactly how much RAM I have, but I have as much RAM as my motherboard will take, so I can definitely afford to open more than one tab. I just don’t see any reason to, frankly, and it drives me up the wall.
