   We have a TON of this kind of catch-22 in the US. Capitalism and all; you can choose the free complicated way or the not-free easy way. You’re still free to complain about either. If I had my way, we’d do a progressive flat-tax; going as hi

   Hey, you’re free to file freely via mail all you want—I get Intuit is a problem, but I choose $40 as an easy way to double check my work and that’s it. Its the US, freedom above sense sometimes, whatever.

   My wife and I file pretty standard forms every year--no complicated deductions, only 2-3 W2s, maybe a couple 1099s and a 1098-E. For the first few years of our marriage, I did taxes by hand as a point of pride and enjoyed it (yeah, I know--

   As someone who tested positive last Friday after being vaccinated back in March--I can say the symptoms I'm experiencing vs. some of my co-workers who just got full-on COVID are MUCH more mild. I've had a little congestion, some s

    Sun gear has REALLY jumped in price, especially the early 32bit SPARC stuff. I had a BUNCH of them in the mid 2000's, an IPX, SS10, SS20, Ultra1, and a beautiful full stack LX with CD-ROM and two external hard drives. Sold them all on

    I've got a 2004 14" iBook G4 I was thinking the exact same thing about. Diablo II and Simcity 4 ran just peachy on it last time I got it out during COVID lockdown.

    Thanks for your insight. I'm at a similar crossroads currently and leaning toward staying in my current role. Basically about 14 years ago, I left a Fortune 500 company where I was a Network Administrator for a decade to go to a Univer

    This is the same drivel people who consider themselves "purists" in the watercolour scene spew whenever a new person expresses interest in painting. "You MUST spend $10 a tube minimum to REALLY be painting." "If you

    I'm in the same boat here, keeping an XP-VM with NetCobol from 95 running to support COBOL reports that were ported from an HP3000 in the mid 90s. The NetCobol activation no longer works so I did a P2V conversion to make sure it doesn&

    This is my solution too--bonus the fan covers up the sound of my Labrador retrievers licking themselves in the middle of the night (which wakes me out of a dead sleep every time).
