That was pretty much how I spent at least one day a week, during my college years.

We still have Mandarin Chinese Buffet, in Canada, but I rarely go in. Just order for delivery.

I've just been advising clients to ignore it and it will ultimately install. Seems that it does.

After attempt 14, I gave up. It will install. Eventually.

On something like the 6th attempt to install the latest cumulative update to Windows 11, so business as usual.

Oh, the days when I had to stay late at my computer manufacturing job, so that I could connect with a supplier in Hong Kong, to download driver files over 1200 Baud modem ;)

And I blame font choices. If you haven't seen it, you really need to see the Weird Al "biopic."

I definitely need this.

Weird Al.

"Alien Nation" - "In my language you name sounds like 'Sye Ikes', meaning excrement and cranium." If you're talking about the show with the alien terraforming storyline, they were really hoping that the multimedia thing (show + game that helped steer the plot) would really take off. Sadly, it...

I don't disagree that the absolute crap is being wrung out of franchises, and yet, they continue because the public seems to demand it. Studios are only too glad to continue as, when they hit right, they are a license to print money. Actors don't mind because getting an ongoing role, in a...

Different medium, different expectations. Plays generally stand alone. There aren't a lot of theatre "franchises." A play is a discrete thing, that takes place in the moment. Your experience will hinge on what actors were involved but the next time it shows, it's a different experience. Telling...

Regardless of what's behind the curtain, it's the same in practical terms. Ever shot ISO 400 B&W film? That stuff was graaaaainy. We're lucky to have cameras with usable ISO 1200. Cell phone cameras are a different beast and fine, when you don't have anything else, but they just can't do what...
