When I graduated from high school I used the money I got in graduation gifts to purchase an HP41CV.

It was an amazing calculator. I wish I knew where it was!

Musk is paying people to sign a petition. How is that any different from what CAH is doing?

If Musks behavior is shitty, then CAH behavior is equally shitty. If CAH behavior is not shitty, then Musk's behavior is not shitty.

Glad to see you agree with me.

Have you read their schtick? $100 to swing state voters who jump through some hoops. You can parse that however you like, but they're buying votes for the blue team.

Did we forget the Cards Against Humanity group?

I envy you having a farm! My wife's a Soldier we move a lot currently I'm sitting amongst a lot of cornfields. While I'm surprised at how much I like it here, I really miss Kentucky which is where we moved from.

The worshipping of the con man really bugs me. I came out of the religious right, and while I believe that it is possible for someone to support Trump for completely valid reasons, I didn't believe you can be a Christian and do so. If you are a Christian and support him, you are a shitty Christian. Don't be surprised if whenyou get to the Pearly Gates you hear "get away from me for I never new you!"

Thanks for this post. I appreciate the fact that you're engaging in good faith.

I tell people I'm an optimistic pessimist. Absolutely convinced the world is going to hell, but that we'll have a helluva good time along the way.

I think our also helps that I'm old. My son's are likely older than most Lemmy users. I'm older than Pong, so I've watched the world change a lot in my six decades. A lot of people have predicted a lot of doom in those years, and the doomsayers have pretty much always been wrong.

Our nation is far from perfect, but we have been changing in a positive direction my entire life. I didn't expect that to change because an Orange Idiot may be in the Oval Office again.

Good Grief!

That was fucking tragic.

This is a valid point, but I have faith in the Republic in which we live. I also refuse to live my life in fear. Losing sleep over an orange buffoon is not something I'm interested in doing.

 

There's a song, I think I only heard one time likely on KGON in Portland, OR and likely in the late 70s. This song has haunted me over the years but I have never been able to locate it again.

The one thing I really remember is that there is a spoken-word portion where the vocalist talks about the Boogie Woogie, but pronounces it more like Boozhi Woozhi.

I'm laying in bed quarantined with Covid and once again its memory and my inability to determine what song it was is haunting me.

 

My favorites broke. They were working great but now they don't work at all. I can't favorite anything there icon sits in the middle of the plus sign and I can't move it to any open slot. Things I had already favorites continue to work, but I can't add new things or swap things out.

I've tried dropping my entire inventory and then picking things back up but that is not resolving there issue. It's not game-breaking but it is frustrating.

 

Shortly after my previous post about BEX, my merc company folded due to a lack of funds.

I took the opportunity to install BTA and give it a try. I love the depth, I love the details, but I'm really struggling with the lack of a cohesive art style. I'm finding it pulling me out of my suspension of disbelief.

Has anyone else had that difficulty? Will I outgrow it with time?
