The last boom/bust cycle resulted in a lot of high tech gear getting sold off at bargain basement prices.

Good for new businesses but bad for companies like Cisco trying to sell new gear in a market flooded with cheap used gear.

Let me guess… the old “He’s a good boy, think of his future!” defense?

Problem: All he’e giving is death and destruction and all he wants to take is land and children…

You can’t both sides an illegal invasion.

Man, if only lying was a crime!

Can’t delete data from a phone that never had it. 😉 Bonus if you hand them a dumb phone.

“Oh, my phone? Sure, here you go!”

Palatino. Fite me! 😉

“Sorry, I don’t use social media.” (hands over burner phone)

Kinda spammy to just drop a logo and the name of the app. What’s the big differentiator besides “Christian”? What would draw people to you over, say, a Christian community on Facebook?

I’m paranoid so I’d be continually monitoring the automation. 😉

Glioblastoma, damn. I personally knew far too many people killed by that.

The funny thing about the premise is, it’s not even that original:

Holy Blood and the Holy Grail - 1982
Preacher (comic book) - 1995-2000
The Da Vinci Code - 2003

Good book to take with you to jury duty if you want to avoid being picked for jury duty. 😉

That was a TOUGH read. It came up in my fantasy kick back in the 80s, so many other better books to read!

Kind of the whole point of the “Dirty Jobs” show.

Two kinds of jobs:

One, where you need a shower before you go to work.

Two, where you need a shower when you get home from work.

We value One and devalue Two. NGL, I’ve done both, I don’t know, physically, that I could go back to Two.

Bonus, Three, can’t remember the last time you showered because you work from home. LOL.

More media, fewer people. 😉

That’s something I’ve been telling people for years… Treat the Internet as you would the largest city you know of.

Would you take your kid to Times Square, turn them loose and say “Go have fun!” Of course not, that’s insanity.

That would be a fun way to implement a quarantine… Posts and comments by new users are only available to other new users. 😉

Kind of like the “Hide Bots” toggle. “Hide New Users”.

As far as THEY know, they’re active participants.

The Harry Potter books don’t start getting good until he finally ditches the Dursleys full time. I think starting with the 3rd book?

942 days is nothing though… 2 and a half years?
