It probably has asbestos in it (no really).

Don’t open it

Call centre boss gets paid all of $10k more then a CSR

It’s crazy how they give that shit out once you pass a certain age.

And yet if you have cancer or a serious, chronic or otherwise illness/injury you it’s like “have you tried paracetamol”?

I think the problem with computers is when you make shit too easy.

Play a game. Tap on store. Tap on install. Play.

When I was growing up getting shit to run on my 286 was a challenge, Changing memory allocations, IRQ ports, a myriad of errors and work arounds, cfg files, memory editing, command lines, basic, and all that stuff meant you were forced to think.

The irony is script kiddies of the 90s would be viewed upon as hardcore hackers these days.

Indeed it warmed the cockles of my heart when my son got into Half Life and asked me to show him how to use the console.

I was like, awww you’ve taken your first step into a larger world.

Linux distros have driver support for a Chrome book touch screen?

Lol, I’d like to see that

Your favourite restaurant will end before you do

“Deleted by creator” is definitely got some wisdom hidden in it

Tattoos on the penis don’t hurt at all

Everything reminded me of her. I had to leave

Drinking warm beer is not normal

There is nothing new under the sun…

I guess thats why gastro restaurants are using wild cooking techniques to come up with new dishes and flavours combos.

Foam?

But dishes most people cook in their own home have legacies reaching far beyond time.

Take the Pavlova. Legend has it that it came from the long long ago, in the mist of times of Australia, long before any NZ bastard tried to steal it from us.

What happened to the stick?

It’s fairly well-known historical fact that fascists don’t understand art.

I used to think that as well but when I discovered Dali absolutely fucked up and convoluted political views, well I don’t know anymore.

Fucker refused to denounce the fascists. Sucked up to Franco and the king.

Then again if anything it shows that conservatism is a mind virus and could infect anyone, especially as you get old. You have to be on guard, especially if you suffer surgery, a illness, stroke or cardiovascular disease.

I have to admit the older I get the easier it is to succumb to lazing thinking, presumptions, prejudice, especially when you’re presented with limited information. You have to be actively reminding yourself to apply critical analysis, understand the subtext, thibm about what their not showing.

I don’t forgive older people who are racist cunts. But I can see how easy it is to fall into that way of thinking.

Protect your old people. Block fascist and racist channels on their YouTube and other social media when you’re asked to fix something. To into their email and block the domains of known racists.

Clear, clean, their environment of the fuckers and back them up, pull them into a better politics.

Because reddit moderation has become utterly unbearable, insufferable bad.

I’ve been using BBSs, newsgroups, MIRC, ICQ, a million ass forums and social media for almost 40 years now.

I’ve never been banned from anywhere on the net (and before).

And yet in the last three months I’ve been temp banned 3 times on reddit. All for their AI moderation systems misunderstanding Australian colloquialisms as threatening violence.

It’s utter bullshit.

People are leaving reddit as a result.

Are we talking form, coz a pizza in the form of a tokamak would be sick.

Or are we talking ingredients, coz 30 years ago I used to order

Pizza, thin tomato base. Cheese, tandoori chicken, corn, potato slices with avocado slices. It might have more stuff but the place closed down and no one else will make it for me.

I would then layer salt and vinegar chips on that motherfucker.

It was amazing.

Well the opposite of meth is heroin…

Once my father was preparing a 15kg salmon for a big dinner party. The phone rang and he turned away for just a moment.

Our three cats who had been strategically located around him used this moment to pounce. Working together they had leapt onto the bench and pulled it off.

With a loud splat he came rushing back to find them merciless attacking the fish.

(the meat with bite marks was strategically removed, and the cats rejoiced).

The dog into trouble for not stopping the cats.

Well no other animal has mastered Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography either.

Also this one time I shot up heroin whilst peaking on acid and MDMA whilst sucking a bulb of nitrous whilst having sex (fine it was a blow job)

Even some of the more intelligent apes haven’t mastered that either

Damn, maga fascist are now shooting down illegal aliens

I share the author’s nostalgia for Telnet, as a kid who spent many lost hours trying to telnet into “interesting things” at the dawn of the internet.

We had a transmitter on our building for satalite backhaul. I used to have fun using it to telnet into various stuff in orbit.

You’d be surprise at how many times they didn’t even bother with credentials.
