I find other women attractive, but the idea of bedding another woman is not appealing to me. The idea of my wife laying with another man is damn near infuriating. I don't know how anyone could get past the emotional response to their h

Hi just so you know, I am you 30 years from now and I have come back to tell you that we are a loser. Now I would not have thought this to be true until a few days ago, my time of course, but I am telling you that we have made a big mistake

Getting it out that Obama did not want Assange prosecuted is typical of American style politics. When you are on both sides of the fence you can address criticism by pointing out that you did not want to take the action or pointing to the a

Best wishes Anna. My 86-year-old uncle likes to say he is not old enough to drink yet. His face and hair still look great and he is in good health.

Ordered sushi online and the site said it would be ready in 15 minutes. I get there and they tell me an hour. Next time I will call it in. On the other hand Chipotle is always ready when I get there.

Sex with an unattractive woman is better than no sex at all. A difference between guys born in the 60/70s vs 90/2000s is that we were a lot less picky about the chicks we banged. Not sure what changed in the culture but I don'

Sure there is; Young and Mitchell have made an active decision to shutdown their own speech or the speech of another. The difference is taking an action against another vs taking an action against yourself. I am sure that you will agree tha

I agree with you on the right/left join issue. I don't think I have ever used a right join. But then again I don't use greater-than signs either so maybe it is me.

I am sure there are a lot of details that I missed, but this sounds a lot like an IBM i series. If this is free software I can see a market for it. If this is commercial software then . . . well I don't know good luck.

I worked for a manufacturer of outdoor product with a short season. We didn't have warehouse space to hold an entire season of product and we did not have manufacturing capacity to build as needed so we used 180 day terms to let our cu

We need something like the senate filibuster debate rule for taxes. Basically just state that there is this thing I can do to skirt the tax system so I declare a tax evasion without having to actually make people do stupid stuff.

Thank you for making me go back and look. I was reading this from the perspective of a young boy too. For whatever reason I visualized myself when I was reading this.

I have a display case in my office with mostly HP calculators. A few folks don't know what to think of it but I get bit of a kick out of their reaction. I love having them all in front of me to use and most importantly to remind me to

One of my biggest regrets was passing up an offer to buy over 200 HP48 calculators back in the early 2000s. There was an independent book store across the street from a local tech school that had bought used 48s from students. There was one

Of course we believe we are right otherwise we would believe something that we think is wrong. Self righteous people want you to know that they are right and you are wrong. But I think what the article is really getting at is that we are pu

Indeed you are correct that I should not have made that post. It drags down the discussion and I would not be interested in reading a site filled with posts like that. I will keep it in check the next time I feel that snappy.

It is a site for a game that died ten years ago so it gets more bots than people at this point. Last month my cloudflare email said they saved me 22.7% of 91.69MB. So you are correct that the cache is never warm.

Immerse yourself in something that has a low cognitive load (or at least a smooth ramp up). Watches, pens, guns, calculators, retro computers, model trains, civil war history . . . you get the idea. Geeking on a single topic is therapeutic.

Forte Agent was the only reason that I had a windows PC in the mid/late 90s. Yep an IXer posting with Agent may have made me the butt of the joke, but that was some of the most intuitive software ever written.
