State of the Game

Same with "hey, go Xerox these papers."

Except Xerox is still around.

I think.

Still strange!

Still strange!

I think my presence in this thread clearly establishes that already.

I have this terrible problem. I'm buying stuff at 10% of market, and selling it at 20% over market, instead of committing war crimes for cat media.

That's unforgivable...

you don't need to be gone for a popular product to become a common use noun describing similar products... because that's efficient use of language.

like googling Odyssey reviews.

As it's Monday and those of you that are well enough to get up this morning and go to work... Have a cat pic about Friday to cheer you up!

Gooood morning!
Some rain actually made this morning bearable, if not comfortable.
Average temperature on the forum outside this Thread is still considered "unsafe".

For those of us that are enduring some kind of chronic pain as part of the human survival endurance thing...

It dropped from the top end of the 20s (85f) to the low 20s a few days ago here in the UK. I don't like it hotter than 24C (75f). So it's nice to be back to a comfortable temperature again.

24°C is the absolute upper limit, yeah!
More is hell.

For those of us who are seeing your mental health professional today...

More is hell.

Agreed!

If you don't fit into any of the above categories...

 

[Susanna]

If you are here because you are looking for Teletubbies...

 

[Susanna]

If you are here because of too much drug abuse...

 

[Susanna]

Lastly, if you are here to just observe the insanity from a safe(ish) distance...

I raise you the ZX81... 1 majesterial Kb of memory, upgradeable to 16Kb with the addon pack shoved in the back - which wobbled if you moved it too much and crashed the whole thing just when you you were completing your Z80 8bit machine code masterpiece - with no debugging and no assembler... and a CPU running at the heady hights of 3meg!!!

Fabled rampack wobblers

 

[Susanna]

Ha! I lied!

There is no 'lastly' in this thread!

Hotel California starts playing in the background...

 

[Susanna]

You'll like me eventually... Promise!

 

[Susanna]

Something very strange is going on here.... Yeah. Right here!

 

[Susanna]

Blah! This isn't fish! What is this muck?

 

[Susanna]

Meanwhile back to cats...
