I have a locker at my place of work where I store a few HDDs and USBs. These are the most up to date, but I also have others at my parents place and my in-laws. Gets troublesome keeping track of which ones are up to date as of what date. Go

I don't think I've come across anything related to Borges that hasn't been worth reading. I really need to investigate him more. My first introduction was the 'Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge'[0], from wh

This radio station is local to the city I live in, and they've been great for music discovery for me, although heavy focus on local artists, but they've put me onto a few international artists as well. https://threedrad

The thing about "Trump demands" is that the wind will change direction very quickly, like before you've even got your lips in position to say 'F'. Would they want to run the gauntlet of the various 'migration&#

The google.com/goto links feel like it makes it easier to send people to 'bad' sites. Having said that, I'm sure I'm in a tiny minority of people who check the link address in the bottom of the screen when hovering
