They missed using Access incorrectly with too many users and too large of a database.

Is this a plot to one of the latest PornHub not my sister, but step brother productions? If it was further south a arguement could be made not my step, but full brother…

I think this was the stock that the eventual “he ducks” crowd came from

WHO chief warns against misinformation over global pandemic accord (news.un.org)

The head of the UN World Health Organization on Thursday spoke out forcefully against “misinformation on social media and in the mainstream media” which has falsely alleged that a new global pandemic accord being negotiated, would allow the WHO to override national sovereignty relating to a future outbreak.

That’s what they want us to think. /s

The real truth!

I did install a Sega Genesis emulator on a old laptop during the Xmas break to play some NHL94 and 95 with modern rosters.

That was a lot of fun. I also installed Pirates! Gold after a day and it was fun to revisit these games from my youth.

I loved the ability to save stats.

However after a couple of days I’ve not really played them again since. It only cost $14 for the Sega controller so it was worth the price. I don’t think I could buy 2 beers at a bar locally for that.

I’m wondering which slot Lord Buckethead will come in

Well based on the American consumer trends they will basically eat anything that remotely looks or smells like food so I’m sure some cost cutting accountant thought this was a good idea…

Wait until they replace them with plastic alternatives with a food like coating in the years ahead…

I would too. I would love to see this spin on the old westerns where the settlers are pushing further into Indian country and instead of the Indians being the badies as they defend the territory, the settlers are portrayed as the invaders, and they are turned back to return to Europe like the Vikings did before 600 years before them.

I have to wonder what the scar lines from the various transplants and hair tucks would look like.

I’ve read he’s had a lot done to close the gap and make the George Constanza Ceasar’s crown into a full head of hair. That’s a lot of ground to pull up over. I don’t think it would look so smooth.

I can’t even imagine how much time he needs to spend each morning to get that thing ready for the public. That’s a lot of hairspray. Combine that with the orange spray tan and the makeup it’s not a 5 minute job.

What do you mean? They used the best Saran wrap film they could find for this one…

But I’m told by the right that’s the best way to get every last drop of adrenochrome out of them!

This seems to match up with a recent Republican talking head saying Democrat women start their day with an abortion, then their coffee, and then other errands…

I’ve recently started wearing sports goggles for hockey as I can’t do contacts. I feel this one a lot. The fogging up and the constant sweating on the lens is never ending…

Reminds me of years ago of a team I played on. They turned out to be some collection type guys. Didn’t realize at first. They were petty good to me and they were the first team I joined as I was pretty young then.

In the locker room before one of the games as we are getting ready, one of the guys pulls out of his hockey bag his lady’s double dong and starts tossing it around the room like a hot potato. I’m not sure I want to know why it was in his hockey bag as those things can get pretty gross as it is.

I’ll never forget that episode. It was never on the list of first ways to see as double dong in real life.

“he’s quoting Hitler almost daily now, this isn’t setting off any red flags?”

This seems to be the model I’ve witnessed with many apps over the years. Free at first to get traction and users, then ads, then pay one time fee to get rid of ads, then subscription to keep using the app.

Then there are those that wouldn’t even pay a single fee and get upset at the thought as everything should be free.

The part that is upsetting is the contributions the early community made is monetized when they were they there for the benefit of the community.

I do see there are costs to maintaining and updating these apps so I can understand a need to keep revenue flowing for these future costs. The one time payment is a hell of a deal for years with updates to accommodate the revisions needed for each system update let alone functionality improvements.

In the old days we would buy software for our PC and that was it. There wasn’t really any updates or further support for newer versions of Windows. The software would become very insecure or just stop functioning altogether with enough changes to windows.

It’s hard to find the right balance. I know I only want to pay once, or heck never, but I want these upgrades and updates too.
