That guy doesn’t look like the dinosaur guy. Not yet, anyway.

I was going to mention DOS, but I looked it up in the hopes of not sounding like an idiot and it turns out the history is more complicated than I knew.

It doesn’t warrant warrantilessness?

I was refraining from posting this, so I’m very glad someone else did. Back when we were masked up, I always appreciated the Maryland flag masks the most and made sure to compliment their wearers.

Doesn’t Firefox have reader mode with dark mode built in? Don’t get me wrong, I find that functionality indispensable, but I didn’t think it required a plugin.

That’s even more concerning!

Yeah, agreed.

Wireless for me also. Actually pretty sure I’ve never used wired.

I was recently very interested to learn that, if I run a VPN on my phone, Auto immediately calls out the VPN as a problem and refuses to connect to my car until it’s disconnected.

Per Mozilla, they’re already getting that from the car manufacturers.

I did, yes, and it was, yes. I’ll put in an edit.

In Witcher 3, in the first big city, there’s a guy who yells “top notch swords!” every time you pass him.

But … He doesn’t sell swords. Not even weapons. Just armor.

I wouldn’t find that so offensive if he weren’t so boastful.

edit: As noted in a response, it was “Witcher” not “Witches.”

I have not yet - I did join the relevant discord, but it hasn’t been much help at this point. Thank you for the recommendation.

I agree with you … But the contention mentioned above is mostly just a joke between us now. The good news is that I plan to be with her the rest of my life and die before she does, so how long we’ve been together is less of a concern to me than how long we will be!

That’s similar to what I was considering saying - my wife and I disagree whether we met when I was 22 or 23 and all the services we used to talk back then (IRC server, Skype, AIM) are gone, so there are no easily accessible records.

That said, I’m about to turn 38, so also fifteenish years is how long I’ve known her. We got married about seven years after that.

My wife also made a spreadsheet detailing her symptoms before her assessment (which was with a GP, not a mental health professional). Apparently the mere existence of the document was sufficient to earn her a diagnosis.

My Q1 Pro was awesome for weeks without issue, but now the motor is jammed (I can see the little gear trying and failing to move) and I’ve been too afraid to take it apart.

Apparently they’re closed now, but Artscow used to offer to print any image you provided on a shower curtain for you. I’m sure other alternatives exist these days.

It wasn’t as bad as some - no one was offended AFAIK - but recently a friend’s wife asked if I was close with my in-laws. I had recently moved geographically much closer to them, so I described the distance between us, about four miles.

I didn’t even realize I had misunderstood until her husband clarified later in the conversation.
