You can still run Win 3.11 in DOSBox in that Ubuntu instance. I did it once for fun (from a Mint VM), but couldn't get anywhere online.

Yesterday, I visited new Reddit. No VPN, Chrome in incognito mode, so no extensions, clickedon a link directly from Google search. Got a message that my access was blocked for security reasons. Copied the link to Firefox (with uBO and a few privacy-centric extensions), changed it to old reddit (where I was already logged in), and it worked just fine. I found out that when Reddit kills old reddit, I won't even have the choice to switch to the new one (not that I ever would) because I'd be blocked anyway.

My headphones beep 10 minutes before they die. Which is especially frustrating when they do that a few minutes into a 2-hour run.

I just thought about my old phone. Got a new one in May, andjust before I left for a long trip a few weeks ago I loaded it with a few movies. During the trip I realised that the new phone didn't have a headphone jack anymore, so I couldn't watch anything. It made me irrationally angry.

Mr Carney said one reason the deal collapsed was US negotiators at the 11th hour introducing restrictions on Canadian trade deals with other countries.

I think this is the most important issue. The US administration is realising that other countries are making new deals around the US, and they are using trade pressure to revert that trend. Carney was right to reject the deal. It may hurt in the short term, but it also gives him the opportunity to develop new trade networks.

Don't worry; I don't know any spoilers. I'm playing the 1995 DOS game from Microprose, and I didn't come across a commander yet. All characters are soldiers, and 80% of them are cannon fodder that locates the aliens, which then I snipe with my few trained survivors from the distance.

When I was 34, I got one of them smart scales, and it told me my physical age was 66. So, I started running. At 50, the same scale is putting my physical age at 29. The numbers may not be accurate, but still show how dramatic the effect of active lifestyle may be. Of course, along with running came other changes, such as a healthier diet, but adopting a fitness routine (may not be necessarily running) is the first step.

For the record, I look like a daddy long legs now, not like a cheese grater. But still better than a beer keg I was before.

I want my Geocities back.

I'd tell you what Pontiac stood for, if it was still the 1970s. It hasn't been politically correct since then.

It all started with The Rundown. Before that, it was all desert, but I guess he didn't like the sand.

I think this is just for fun. However, I did work for a company where we did everything in-house from scratch, down to our own font face, because we couldn't afford the legal costs associated with deciphering license agreements.
