@alcinnz sorry my response was probably too terse. I just meant that we have rose coloured glasses until we actually boot old hardware and go "oh yeah, the gui sucked on these."
(As someone who ran various non-Windows GUIs before succumbing to Windows 3.1 then 95, 98 and finally X11 on Linux)

My university's registrar has decided, in their online forms and in emails, that "withdraw" is a noun.
Students are requesting a withdraw from the course.
Yes. like that.
They need to get off my fucking lawn. For one thing, it is crowded out there.

@ai6yr My brain made it halfway through the first part of that sentence and expected it to end with "and now I have a shelf full of how-to books I'm never going to read."
(Tooted for the unlikely person to see this and have any idea what I'm talking about.)
Also, thanks for the reminder. Haven't participated in Field Day in years. I'll make a point to try and visit some stations this year.

#Chips used to be one of my kryptonite foods...couldn't resist them if my life depended on it.
Explain to me how, now, just about every damn bag I open is low key nasty to me.

lovely woodland colours 😍 What do you plan to make?
Hang on... what's that...
YOU HAVE TALISMAN!
I love that game. OH doesn't like it as much so we don't play it these days, but I have expansion packs and EVERYTHING.
I was sorting out a cupboard last week and found Warlock too...I would have loved to play live D&D but I didn't have the confidence to find a group. Now, I don't go out of an evening so I might never join one.

My oldest is in pep band so I have attended a number of high school basketball games this season and I've learned the following:
1. the backboard doesn't exist.
2. the bounce pass doesn't exist.
3. if you've got the ball deep in the lane with a shot you should immediately pass it up to the top of the key instead.

My brain cannot understand these "slander" videos.
I have to constantly pause them to read the jokes and generally, it is too fast for my brain.
