The average quality of music in the world doubled the day Kurt Cobain solved his headache problem. Grunge was a disease caused by not changing your clothes, and using too much heroin instead of learning to play instruments and sing.
And, I’m peak GenX and a Seattleite.
“What was that noise?”
Most languages respond something like “it’s nothing”, de nada. English is a little weird saying “welcome”.
Repo Man. If they don’t like it, I don’t want them around.
Joke’s on them, I’ve never been “well rested” in my life or my digital afterlife.
Multiple of your friends have cancer, died of cancer, or of other illnesses. But mostly the cancer.
You wonder if your bowels are OK. They are not.
It’s still a surviving working copy. “I” go away and reboot every time I fall asleep.
You made an obviously incorrect claim, and now you’ve doubled down on “nobody should have a phone or computer”, which is… no longer in reality. Thanks for not having a productive conversation.

If you can’t afford an iPhone, that’s tough, but I live in the US where it’s 56%, and around the world it’s 28%, which is not “doesn’t exist”. And in any case Signal exists for the others. Yes, if you use a freecycled GNU/Linux phone with not-sold-in-Shenzhen wireless chipset not supported by any carrier so it has to be hardwired to ethernet, you’ll have a harder time.
And if you do try to do everything at once, you fail at everything. Which is what happened after Google EEE’d and crushed XMPP, it’s unsupported in full by anyone. There’s no money in open source networking, it’s near impossible to fund the people who work on critical infrastructure, let alone new toys.
Meanwhile, there’s a system that’s been working for 35 years.
Of course not. I am the guy in long coat, hoodie or toque, big black boots, and face mask.
Crime rates have dropped massively, you’re being driven into a panic by pro-police, racist media manipulation.
You don’t have to solve every problem in a single application. If you need privacy, use iMessage or Signal.
Public chat is by definition not secure, anyone can be sitting in the room logging, so it’s not that essential as long as client-server uses TLS. Modern IRC does have SDCC chat, but not all clients will use it, so stick to secure messengers.
Don’t use either, they’re unreliable services and not enough people use them. Stick to IRC.
There’s about 8 billion Humans, and about half of them suck more than any friendly domestic animal. The worst? I’d create an emergency.
“She”. The gag of SwiftOnSecurity is it’s Taylor Swift, posting infosec. Tho these days she mostly trolls like this.
If they had “fixed” it, there would be a “My Computer” icon. No such thing exists, go TRY the Infinite Mac I linked above.
Yes your uncle who works at Nintendo ^W Apple told you about it.
Governmental research. There was Project Blue Book, as I mentioned, which was inconclusive and then ended.
No such demo happened. They unveiled the 128K with that System 1.0 on stage at a special event. The Lisa has a different UI, but also can’t do what’s described.
Also, Courtney Love is 10x the musician Kurt ever was, listen to any track on America’s Sweetheart and you’ll break your heart. It’s better that she’s free.
