  • Don’t worry, worry-worts. There is an armada of data hoarders who will bring this all back after the purge. Data doesn’t die as long as nerds and geeks like me exist to persist the knowledge we have attained. Be of good cheer - nobody viewed that data before except a select few who cared, it is still there for them just not officially hosted by our broken system…it will be unbroken soon enough.







  • My best friend at work is a dyed-in-the-wool conservative. He will never not be - and I rush to profess that he is not an asshole…he just thinks conservitave/republican is the side he needs to support probably because that’s what daddy did, dunno. We see eye-eye on most other things.

    We do not agree on anything political except that everyone is way too heated up over everything. We are still friends, regardless.

    My point in responding is that his gay daughter disconnected from him after Trump v.1 - would not take a call or interact in any way. This is painful for my friend and he has been confused by it but does not realize why his daughter won’t engage. I think she is offended that his political choice doesn’t allow for her right to exist and, frankly I agree with her.

    I think my friend has lost his daughter forever because he is a stubborn man. I hope your dad can open his heart to accept you.








  • About 10 years ago I got tired of searching through the stacks of disks and jockeying around plugging in actual physical media to make entertainment happen. I ripped everything to disk and started using PleX, found out about the *arr suite of helpers to get everything on earth and got a hdhomerun for broadcast media.

    I am the master of all video media from the comfort of my couch - no disks or subscriptions required. Never going back!
