Over 1000x the attendance at the military parade.

This headline is garbage. You could put just about any Fortune 500 company’s name in there and the headline would still be accurate.

I think the logic is “babies are innocent, these people have a choice and they made the wrong one.”

And then you get to a point where you look at that and think “clever but I’m sure it’s fucked up in some way that isn’t immediately obvious.”

If we fed every CEO of a Fortune 500 company into a wood chipper the only effect on the world would be fertilizing some plants.

Who used those triangular pastel buttons? I remember seeing them on some friends’ computers but not on any Dells or Gateway 2000 machines. Maybe Compaq? Or Packard Bell?

I saw Slackware running on a similar config, although it was probably a 486/50 or 486/66.

I remember my dad’s friend upgrading our PC clone to 640K. He used a soldering iron.

My ex and I worked on a birth plan for our second child after her experience with our first was deeply unsatisfying. We discussed home birth but I insisted on a birthing center attached to a hospital in case something went sideways. She found an OB who listened to her, and we made clear what our birthing plan was, and that was respected by the medical staff. As it happened, the labor was smooth and relatively quick, and home birth would have been fine. I’m still glad we were at a facility where there would have been no lag between a problem arising and a doctor being able to address it.

Somewhat related, I just started Spanish lessons using Language Transfer. Fewer bells and whistles but it’s human centric.

And bikes are more agile and capable of getting out of the way than cars are

Thank you for sharing the update!

Thanks for the update, too bad it’ll be a while but I’m glad it’s not a permanent issue
