I wish I had points for you. JD has been FSCK'n farmers for decades. I can remember my grandfather ranting about them.

I was thinking the same. I did this in the early 2000s with an old 486, except it was dialing out with a 56k modem. It was running a Junkbuster proxy to filter out ads. Amazing that I was able to do that with 33MHz.

I'm still using my Kindle 3. It's still working fine, with the original battery and everything.

I don't let it connect to the Internet and really don't care if Amazon still supports it.

It has pretty limited mods though. I was able to get shell access but you can't do much with it. What's the most mod-friendly e-reader?

I'm in the same boat, I just assumed it was quietly discontinued and never to be spoken of again.

Alice laughed. "There's no use trying," she said. "One can't believe impossible things."

"I daresay you haven't had much practice," said Google. "Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

Change the headline to read "Equivalent to thirteen Chevy Sparks!"

But I don't want to use Google Messages. Is there a decent alternative? I just use it for SMS, nothing else.

It's hard to do much with a single panel and only a few hundred pixels, but political cartoons? That's a pretty low bar... Usually you can at least draw silly caricatures of politicians, but this is just a mouse with some lame punditry. That's not even very impressive ANSI art.

Reminds me of this old fossil: https://www.penny-arcade.com/c...

I read that as the AI's were gaming now. I can just see MOLT book filled with ravings by AI's who "P)WN3D" meatsacks around the world in games. I might almost feel better that it was an AI vs knowing an 11 year old korean girl just smoked me for the 10th time today...

Well 450 million years was a good run. As soon as there is some perceived value to humans pythons will be hunted to extinction. Humanity killed off inumerable species for a good looking jacket. I can only imagine what will happen if pythons can make you thin....

Be careful what you wish for, there end up being a pipeline from the great lakes to water lawns in Arizona.

Those scientists are always baffled, stunned, shocked, or bewildered. Can they get anything right?

Yes I'm still using the old Outlook but the "New" Outlook apparently has features I'd like to use, but I can't be bothered to adjust my muscle memory and learn a new UI.

However I just tried launching Outlook (new) and it directed me to stop using this and install the new Outlook app from the Microsoft Store, so there must be a newer new Outlook.

I think most people have at least two Microsoft Outlooks. A quick search of my start menu gives me:
Outlook
Outlook (new)
Plus a Microsoft Store suggestion to install Outlook for Windows, which seems to be a third Outlook.

Steam asks you if you'd like to participate via a pop-up window, so it depends on which OS you happen to be using when the survey goes out.

This means only results from active users who agreed to submit their system specs are counted. Installation alone doesn't factor into it. If you haven't seen that popup, you're not counted.
