Comment WoW? Wow! (Score 1) 55

I never thought to look it up before, since I've been running World of Warcraft on my trusty old Win10 for decades now. But this got me curious.

Well, look like no problems. I'm sure there's a decent web browser available, and if I could get all my saved Outlook email transferred over ... interesting, very interesting.

Yeah, there may have been some nutjobbery as you say ... but I still miss all the Chuck Norris references in World of Warcraft's "Crossroads Chat", which had a certain fame of its own back in the early days. So long, Chuck: maybe on the other side.

I had no idea they were recycling fiber optic cables like that! I remember seeing an underseas cable dragged up into the jungle down in Panama when I was working in the Army Jungle School at Fort Sherman. It was at Devil's Beach, where our student companies would regularly take a break, and the big black cable (I can't remember, maybe 3 or 4 inches in diameter?) was just lying there in the jungle. You could see its construction on the end visible there. I always have regretted not bringing a hacksaw there one day and hacking off a foot or two just as one hell of a souvenir!

I have bought about 8 books in the past two years. I finished one. It was dreadful - I certainly chose the wrong one. But the others I've hardly started. There is no moment in a modern day that it the right moment to sit and read. The process of reading brings me no joy at all. No writer feels any urgency to get to the point.

Ditto on the several purported Rachel Maddow channels I've been viewing lately. And the channels on that out-of-system "comet" over the past several months. Tipoffs: lip synching may be good, random head movements, etc. But the hand and arm movements are identical, repetitive. And the way they spell out millions of dollars as "digit dollarsign millions".

Very disappointing.
