I’d heard the cigarette version before. Blows my American mind.

I had to look up the recipe to figure out the slur you were alluding to…yikes. I don’t blame you for not repeating the name here.

I’ve usually heard “right of way” used in terms of sense 3 of the dictionary. I’ve never heard it used to refer to the ability to make a road – that just makes me think you have a skilled construction crew on speed dial.

Are you interested in setec astronomy?

I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone refer to it as “ness”. I think I’d be confused – what does the Loch Ness Monster have to do with gaming? – until they clarified.

Thanks :D

I came here to ask the same thing!

Did you reply to the wrong comment?

So you’re saying copyright infringement is on par with speeding or parking past the meter’s end? Eh, fair enough.

If you do something illegal, you should be arrested.

Copyright infringement lawsuits are a far cry from bomb threats or the like.

Damn, I would have simply blocked the troll long before this! You have the patience of a saint.

As others have said, congrats on the new build :)

I assembled a desktop* for myself in 2021 after a long run on an ol’ Dino Laptop. I had similar feelings - a LOT had changed. I was able to avoid RGB for all the internal components, but it did take some looking.

RGB lights on memory, etc. look nice if you have a window in your case and keep it on your desktop - doubling as artwork. I’ve seen some very pretty-looking builds out there!

*Deskbottom would be more like it. I keep the case on the floor under my desk.

Like nails on a ‘chaulkboard’, that.

I’m not mad about it, I just think it’s funny that videos have taken over from images.

Imgur should really rename itself as vidyer. Seems like it’s mostly videos these days!

I use podman at work, mostly just a Docker replacement. My biggest problem with it is typing “pdoman” in commands by mistake.

The original movie came out in 1994, Universe came out in 2009. That’s 15 years. 2009 to 2024 is also 15 years. Universe is about to be older than Stargate was when it came out. Yikes.

Good idea for those who are covered by the GDPR. Doesn’t help me, though.

Don’t regret too much. I wouldn’t be surprised if reddit’s “delete” function was really just "move to the “suckers-wanted-to-delete-this” file.

What would you call it? What’s your objection to the term “employee benefits”? You sound like you have an axe to grind, but I don’t get your angle.
