Read and learn. Thank you all for going deep!

Shoot, I don't want to get catty with booman. He just landed a good job that he likes. Can't beat that! Automation may do all of us in eventually. Not long ago it was truck drivers in danger of losing their paychecks. In ten years they are history. Seems that many fast food outlets would MUCH...

Great news for gamers, thank you booman!

Glad to read that you like your new job, booman, sounds quite interesting!

booman is so great, I gotta tell ya! Even with a brand new job to learn he's concerned about his spare time LAN parties. Which are a gas, I betcha!

Weyell, you know. Name brand machines use custom made almost everything, mainboards with built-in nearly the whole kitchen sink. They cut every corner they can in aid of maximum profit. Not sure why I bought a Lenovo desktop...probably because they were simply "IBM boxen with a new name" at the...

While I loved AMD's Athlon and held it above all others, that glorious two years passed. Unfortunately AMD is maybe 5% as large as Intel. This underdog status is unfair and unfortunate but inescapable in researching the future of GPU's/CPU's. Some folks insist on i7's but i5's are good enough...

Sorry to extend this unpleasantness. A simple historic examination reveals Hillary's and Obama's love of death and destruction. Obama was smart enough to stay out of Libya, perhaps the most civilized and nice to inhabit of African nations, btw. But Hillary talked him into destroying that...

Thanks to all of you here at GamersOnLinux! Watching MS ram unasked for and unwanted Win 10 updates into my Win7 installation(which I liked, I know, where was my shame?) was the final straw. The thing was that I needed to replace the Lenovo i5 box(that ran very well, tbh. But it would NOT...

Thanks for the "dumb ass" comment. Ya made my day!

My word, I have missed SO much by not actively posting here at GOL! Not only have this most excellent site's members been instrumental in helping me get started in Mint--they are cherished humans whose company I have sorely missed since the active days of AOA! Thank you all SO much for bringing...

Those in charge of the human race actually enjoy raping the planet. I've seen that poor horrific town in China in a movie years ago. It just makes you want to cry. So much poison for a micro gram of silver and gold here and there.

Yet the truth is that both of the front-runners are monsters. Hillary is chomping at the bit for a war with Russia. She is that power mad and crazy. Hard to forecast which would be worse. War with Russia equals death to all. The Donald means stepping back to all things that are bad--except war...

I'm thinking of voting for none of the above. Maybe I should write-in Daffy Duck? Mighty short on good temper--but the world is too it seems.

Shucks, don't have a My Kingdom. It might be nice but wouldn't other kings always be plotting against you? Milton Keynes is about 45 miles or 72 kilometers northwest of London. Hmm, wonder why it's said as "Lundun," yet spelled the official way? Guess that's our English language for you, full of...

LOL! Shame on me, I forgot those pesky raster lines.

Quite an interesting life, excellent. Is "MK" Milton Keynes? Can't find any other geographic explanation for the letters. And if so, where is Milton Keynes located in England? Thanks!

But...if the power isn't on how can you find out what went bad? Yeah, right. Looks like you've been on the (Southern expression) "it might could kill you" express more than I have. I guess that I didn't feel so confident (or lucky?) It's great that CRT's are now only of historic interest. But...

A friend got hold of the radiosonde package that came down with a tired weather balloon. The varicolored components inside were fascinating. Shame on me, I swiped a micro switch from him that clicked amazingly addictively in the fifth grade. Gave it back the following day, "ya got me fair and...

Only climate change through denial and greed from those Anglo-Saxons? Much more evil is on their record as well. However, it's a big world and there's plenty of shame and blame to go around!
