Gives cat a present … cat swats it away

If I ever run into that scenario … that would be a great reason to raise the Jolly Roger

9/10 for your grandma … Looks like a dual boot setup … a modern fast core system with multiple speed settings on top … and an older OS that is manually operated that can be revealed from underneath (although once the power goes out, you’d have to lose the LEDs)

Just you wait another few more years and I’m gonna vote so hard it’ll make your head spin

Starts? … I think Google has been sharing our data behind our backs like a school girl that promised to keep a secret

We used to do quite a bit of travelling ten years ago and we used booking.com quite often. In those early days of booking online, there was a period when you could call the help line and actually talk to someone from America or Canada. And they were always helpful. We got messed up bookings back then and we always got help and figured things out. At one point, we were booking so often, we got to know one or two of the operators we kept talking to in London, Ontario.

Fast forward ten years later and I would not recommend any of them any more. All of them send you to a call center in either South / Central America, Philippines or India and like your comment said, they do absolutely as minimal as possible to do anything and keep you waiting on the phone as long as possible.

None of them work any more and it is far better to use them to shop around for quality, reviews and recommendations … then book directly with the hotel.

Use the sites and services as a guide, then find a direct phone number to the hotel and book directly with them.

$40 for a cheap meal delivered to my door ready to eat … made by someone who doesn’t like their job, made with the cheapest ingredients, in a questionable kitchen, by a worker I trust follows proper hygiene, processed by a series of people who will take care of my food to be handed off to some guy who I trust will take care of my food as it travels to my house with everyone being paid as minimally as possible so that several companies can squeeze as much profit out of the transaction as possible.

Or I just take a few hours every weekend to make a ton of good food to eat for the entire week.

Which now renders their site useless … I’ll go on your site to look up basic info … then go to your store to get what I want and even visit some other store or service that could give me the same product.

It’s a disincentive to want to use their site in the future.

I’ve stopped using several store websites because of this. Then when I want an actual product … I’ll call the store and ask them to look for the product for me. If they have it great, if they don’t, I’ll look for it elsewhere or figure out some other solution for myself that doesn’t involve any of their dumb websites.

I’m regressing from the internet and use people contact more and more because of this stupidity. I’m going back to the way I did things in the 90s and early 2000s where I would just use their store flyer as a guide, call the local store to ask for something and then go look for it myself because the online services today are so intrusive and needlessly complicated that its faster and more useful to not go online.

Top 3 are still the same from previous years

1. 12345
2. 123456
3. 12345678

It’s official: “123456” has once again claimed the controversial title of the world’s most common password — and one of the weakest. That marks six out of seven years this password has topped our chart

Imagine getting it punctured inside a public bus … or an elevator.

are you sure those aren’t tribbles? … you might have more around the house

I feel anywhere from … 1 -> 10

Now we need one with a series of little kittens

I remember reading about something along those lines a few years ago.

When we were kids running around with our childhood friends every summer, we thought it would never end, that we would be and stay friends forever.

Then one day, we run home, wave goodbye and say ‘see you later!’ … and without us knowing, or being aware of it, that was the last time we saw our childhood friend.

We might have lived next to one another, or went to the same high school later on or even went to the same college … we never saw our friend again.

We never knew and we were never aware of when we said goodbye or saw our friend for the last time.

I think about my old childhood friends … I’m middle aged now … some of those friends died young, some got married and had a bunch of kids … a few had hard lives and became addicts … one of them is a vegetable after having suffered an overdose … and many of them just went on and had small families and did OK.

We’d all like to think that but what usually happens is that the ultra wealthy lose a quarter or half their wealth, which makes no difference to anyone because they are so massively wealthy … everyone else lose everything

That doesn’t make sense. I watch Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney on my Ubuntu laptop on Firefox all the time. I have a laptop setup in front of my treadmill just to watch shows while I walk.

I have one large screen dumb TV and I just use a Roku device to watch shows through that. Everything else in the house runs in Linux because I got rid of windows years ago and never had a problem with streaming services.

You should name the box ‘Alsace-Lorraine’

There is only the mother cat and her kitten in this image
