Five Guys: There’s a first time for everything...

Five Guys is consistently good, but damn expensive now. A cheeseburger, fries, and a shake cost me more than $20 the last time I was there.

Just add him to your ignore list, it will make your life easier. Mine is still pretty long from my prior ill-fated trips to the P&N forum.

His "problem" with P&N is that nobody would argue with him there. It's pretty much become a liberal echo chamber. Everyone who didn't tow the party line got banned by the mods there months ago, and they all moved to another forum. You simply cannot impugn moderator integrity. Why would you...

1996

We had an IBM UNIX server with FTP access where people could share files, but most people outside of the CS department or campus IT department didn't know how to use it. We also had Novell Netware for networking at the time. Eww. It was enough trouble just to keep some basic network shares...

Anybody remember the Sega Master System?

There was a Master System version of Altered Beast as well, but it kinda sucked compared to the Genesis version.

1996

My college campus was into Iomega Zip drives hardcore. Every PC and Mac on campus had to have one, mostly because people were working on projects that were too big to fit on a floppy and we didn't really have home directories for everyone on the network yet. At least, not in a way that students...

Xbox Series X

NOW CLOSED ; List some movies you've watched recently. Theatre, rental, TV... and give a */10

Did you know that Terminator 2 had an alternate ending where everyone lived happily ever after? I didn't. While it's not a great ending, it would have made making all of those terrible sequels more difficult. For that reason alone, I wish that they kept it.
