Reminds me of one of my favorites
We are living in strange times.
1·2 days agoIt was so confusing. I didn’t know how to actually do the events, and it’s not like I could look it up, so I have many memories of starting the ski jump and superstitiously button-mashing in hopes that I land right.
I played the hell out of the Nagano Winter Olympics game!
It’s been a big misunderstanding in the history books all these years!
They made their Christmas ads with AI this year.
Most of the talk I’ve seen about it has been negative, which is encouraging, but I’m also not confident that the people who have strong opinions about it are representative of the general population, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
15·3 days agoShe truly is as wise as they say.

Nancy?!
I do too. One of my favorites was seeing someone playing fallout (don’t remember which one. 3?) on an era appropriate TV.
I personally enjoy this stuff a lot because I’m someone who doesn’t like to get rid of any tech. I still have all my old phones, consoles, TVs (I still frequently use a 720p plasma). I like seeing old stuff get repurposed and continuing to work.

If memory serves, I’m pretty sure he just showed up for the movie.
2·14 days agoI just got this error for the first time yesterday and was briefly confused. I didn’t realize that you don’t automatically get sudo privileges when you set up an admin account on every distro.
This happened to me too a few years ago, and I’m also quite a calm person, so it caught me by surprise.
It was 6 months or so after becoming a father, and my best guess is that the sleep deprivation was messing with my head. It stopped and I’ve been fine since.
