Strong possibility now that the quiz simply sits half finished in another tab for a month or two.

The big worry is that most computers running Win10 don't meet the requirements to run 11. If they drop support for 10, then a huge number of computers that are functioning just fine suddenly start becoming increasingly less safe to use and the only fix is to throw them away.

TeChNiCaLlY, under Catholic doctrine, being sexually attracted to or being in love romantically with someone of the same sex haven't ever been a sin. Just having sex with them is. What's new is that they are now willing to bless your sexless non-marriage homo life partnership. It's simultaneously useless to any gay Catholics, and a huge middle finger to the more conservative side of the church.

If we can use the wrong Mt Olympus, we can use the wrong Georgia.

It's only ever "the website formerly know as Twitter" to me.

I respect any soda that puts in the time and effort to earn a doctorate degree. You know who I don't respect? Mr. Pibb, who can can take his undergrad ass and fuck right off.

You'd think so, but that's been a standard abbreviation around the Internet for at least 5 years.

None of the police actually ate Afroman's lemon pound cake, just one stared longingly at it for an awkwardly long amount of time, lol. Let's not muddy the waters by accusing those police of something they didn't do, and focus on the blatantly provable (lack of real probable cause, intentionally sabotaging his cameras) and the alleged but highly plausible ("miscounting" some of his cash into their own pockets).

Now I want to go play Cultist Simulator or Book of Hours. This list is also a list of the sorts of cards the games use to represent the narrative/puzzle you're playing through. Highly recommend.

When asked to choose between convenience and security, a lot of people will choose convenience. Staying on the computer you already have as long as it seems to work fine is very convenient. I still occasionally see computers running Windows 7 for no reason other than that the owner can't be bothered to make a change.

It's also based on Paul's ramblings, so I'm not entirely clear how you get from the biblical text to the official Catholic doctrine.

Let's not get crazy here. These folks would need to know that if they go to a new OS, will is still run "the Microsoft" or "the Google"?

This makes me want to learn the hurdy-gurdy even more! I mean, in reality, I'm never putting in the time to learn to play it anyway. So, in the fantasy of me being dedicated enough to learn to play an instrument, the added fantasy of me maintaining a finely tuned instrument is just added appeal.

True, but I'm banking on the magic glasses getting them to open up about their ulterior motives so I can filter accordingly.

I used a similar setup once in the Appalachians. The back wall was fortunately still standing. I had been backpacking for 3 days and hadn't gone once, so I was backed up, but all that activity kept it loose. The view was absolutely beautiful. The open walls let in a fresh breeze, so no outhouse smell at all. Once I forced myself to get over the awkwardness of the exposure and just go, it all came together. Best Shit Of My Life. 20 odd years later that dump still ranks among the most sublime moments I have ever experienced.

The entire episode devolved, with Mullin and O'Brien calling each other names not normally heard in committee hearings, but they did not get physical.

Sanders yelling at him was then followed by him sitting down while they just kept insulting each other. It's like when your dog wants to fight another dog, and it obeys your order to sit, but still won't stop barking aggressively,

Delegate! Just use the glasses to convince qualified trustworthy people to run the world for you.

Are we talking Albert Einstein at his peak, or Albert Einstein now?

Yeah, that's true, but many people will wonder "Can I still be able to access the Microsoft from a Linux?"

I figured it was longer, but I couldn't be bothered to research it, so I could only speak from my own memory.
