    OK, so they found Bob. Meh.

    I'd have to agree. He obviously doesn't care about the award. I understand that his live shows are to be avoided because he doesn't give a hoot about the audience.

    The Linux Kernel is Bloated and Sad

    Now is all we have. Past and future are concepts that I often take as being part of reality. They are not.

    Microsoft Porting Visual C++ to Linux

    Any possible way to dis MS is always fine by me. They grow more greedy by the minute. Very glad to give them the boot--with Great Thanks to GOL for making it much easier!

    Perfect post, thank you Daniel. If other means of "stopping the world" aren't handy--whatever they might be--"Aumm" works!

    The Linux Kernel is Bloated and Sad

    Yes, my "readership" is sometimes not willing to really slow down and think about your posts. My bad. Slowing down to achieve the now is more important than I realize, too much of the time. "Tis a gift to be simple, tis a gift to be free" is a song often sung by "church" type folk. More wisdom...

    The Linux Kernel is Bloated and Sad

    Hope and charity? Hope for clarity? Daniel, you are so deep most of the time, this makes it extremely difficult to rebut or argue with most of what you write. Clarity sounds good, hope just might lead me down an incorrect, as in too difficult a rut to really deal with. And my eyesight isn't...

    New to Linux

    The great people on GOL are more helpful than one might believe anyone could be. I'm still a Linux newbie and highly recommend Mint with the Cinnamon desktop.

    The Linux Kernel is Bloated and Sad

    I was giving Gizmo credit beyond "we haven't blown ourselves up yet." I truly need optimism, it doesn't come naturally, which is all my fault. Undergoing surgery tends to focus one on that old "it won't last forever" truth. The Beyond is a mystery, but I'll bet we know it when we see it!

    The Linux Kernel is Bloated and Sad

    Come to think of it, how do you rain on a gloom and doom parade? I like Gizmo's optimism, gosh knows I need as much optimism as possible. It's Friday, let the sun shine in!

    They removed the stent that they put in my abdomen two weeks ago today. Glad that I'm done with surgery, tbh, Mongo not like. Quite unhappy stomach but them's the breaks I suppose. So true, I'm a Member of the olde phart's association now. That's ok, I earned my way here. You're right, humanity...

    Perhaps---but then we would live in a sane world. Last time I checked there was very, very little sanity left in the American body politic.

    Unfortunately Mr Pence will become prez if the Donny Drumf is impeached. The Republicans like him much more than Trump. After him? That delightful Mr Ryan, a little twisted nightmare if I ever saw one. We are screwed. The rest of the world stopped seeing us as anything good many years ago. Most...

    The Linux Kernel is Bloated and Sad

    While the Linux kernel may, that's may be bloated, the poor wunnerful man in the pic suffers from tiny hands. Que lastima!

    Have you ever noticed something in its absence?

    Sometimes being a veteran pays off. The VA can cure you or kill you. Fortunately they pretty much saved my life. I have an old friend who suffered from an exploded gall bladder. Holy moly--we never want that to happen to us. He was in a coma for twelve days-and inflated to twice his normal size...

    Have you ever noticed something in its absence?

    It's somewhat weird to see six of them at the foot of your bed. I said "bow before me!" but they refused. Oh well, I'd refuse too!

    Have you ever noticed something in its absence?

    LOL. It's funny but doctors seem to discount much of what you tell them when it's the gospel truth about yourself. That's too bad when it causes extra suffering. C'est la vie.
