Not notebooks but my Dad never let us kids use his guitars because they were too nice. So we never learned guitar. I picked it up later in life and now leave them out for my kids to mess with. Sure, they'll be out of tune and the pick

My team tried it out at the beginning of Covid. It performed really bad for me. I've heard it's better now, but that experience really turned me off to it.

VSCode is 100% free. IntelliJ has a free and enterprise license. I could download the free one, but I feel like I'm missing out on features and would rather go with the option that has everything free. Then I don't have to worry a

My wife started selling stuff on Marketplace for fun and it's basically become a side business for her. It's crazy how successful it's become.

My first laptop for college was a Toshiba Satellite. This would have been around 2006. It was a great machine at a reasonable price. Never had any issues with it until the battery died like 8 years later.

Wiby.org is my homepage. I occasionally click "surprise me..." to view 90s style websites. I find them more interesting than scrolling though modern stuff.

Because of a growing family I bought a van recently. I thought I would hate it because of it's size but I actually love it. It's like driving a fortress around. Third row folds down so it's also like a cargo van. I don't

GameWinners.com. Great source for video game cheats. But the best part for me was the chat room. I would say crazy things to people. Good times. Also GeoCities. I wouldn't gone into web development without it.

This looks really neat. What homebrew computer kits do all of you recommend for someone that has never done this before? I would like to build a computer and program on it. I've done web dev only.

I feel the same way. It's probably because I'm 90s kid and nostalgia, but I wish web standards were taken seriously.
