I don't doubt that it's possible, but it would cost $7,000 or some shit.

I saw a post yesterday that your comment reminds me of. Someone asked if Pinky & The Brain were still trying to take over the world because they were ready to hear Brain's plan, and someone else replied, 'shit, at this point I'm ready to hear Pinky's plan.' 😛

None, since the constitution we have already does that and more and they seem to have no problem ignoring what's already in there, why would any changes be any more effective?

You'd think we'd know by know that that's just how technology works - it makes us 'dumb' because we don't need to spend the effort to do things we've automated away with technology and thus can focus on shit that is more important to us. If I don't have to sit around thinking about math because someone invented a calculator, that's more time that I can spend doing the thing I want to use the math for. The math is a tool, not the point itself.

Major airlines don't generally do flights to regional airports (which I expect is because of runway size), those are mostly for private/chartered flights or smaller local airlines. This is an article on how to find those flights, by a website that purports to let you search for them.

Yeah I know, but that didn't come out 'til I'd left.

No doubt.

I have 2 significant scars I'm not happy about, but only one is my fault. The first is a big ugly scar from when I had appendicitis as a kid. They told me it would be small and go away, but 40-odd years later it's still there.

The one that's my fault is on my right kneecap. I was jumping on my parents' bed and they had this big sturdy cedar chest at the foot. I lost my balance and came down real hard on my right kneecap. It hurt so bad I passed out briefly from the pain. I couldn't put any weight on it for an hour and couldn't walk on it the rest of the day. The scar is small, but it is a reminder of my own stupidity cause it wasn't like I hadn't been warned that jumping on the bed was dangerous.

Take it from someone who agreed with you 30 years ago: the health you ignore today will only cause you more pain, more stress, and more cost down the road. Even if you don't live a long life, what life you do live will be a lot harder to enjoy if you're not healthy.

I was briefly perma banned but it was bullshit so it was lifted on appeal, but it was wake up call. Reddit admins are getting kinda fashy so I decided after 14 years it was time to leave.

0.03 is 7.5x more than 0.004 tho?

Yup, that shit was an arcane art known only to a few, and dared by even fewer. It was like writing modem initialization strings for US Robotics 9600 baud modems when they came out. The 9600DS/HST required an init string that, printed out on a standard dot matrix printer, was literally as long as my arm. Crazy.

Also I veeeery dimly remember something about OLE registration database.. but just that I've heard the name, I never messed with it.
