That era of Internet history was wild. Between weird sex stuff like that and tentacle soup, weird body stuff like goatse and tubgirl, and straight up death like two guys one hammer. It seemed like every third person on the internet was trying to trick you into watching one of those.

I remember when I was a kid I used to pretend the weirdest stuff. Once I was sitting on a picnic table behind the school and I pretended I was loved and safe.

I did stop pretending like that pretty early though because I was afraid of being seen as weird.

I think it's wild that he's more qualified than most politicians (BA in political science from Harvard in case anyone doesn't know) to speak about politics but politicians want him to keep the politics out of his music.

I've made it two decades in IT and related fields by searching for answers using Google. I accidentally took my laziness, love of automation, and ability to Google and became an SRE. Then I accidentally became a senior software engineer because the director on that side of the house liked my initiative and was sure my skills would translate. I protested but got a substantial bump to do it.

I'm failing upwards by abusing stack overflow and search engines.

As a fat redneck, you're mostly correct. You just forgot to add the word drunk in there somewhere.

Imma fry one up in about half an hour. I'm also gonna start drinking in just a minute. My fat drunk uncle who lost several of his fingers in a fireworks incident is smiling down on me from redneck heaven.

It was probably tainted.

D.A.R.E. raised my awareness of drugs. I only used them for wholesome purposes.

So I went and looked. OP seems like a very unhappy individual. I found traces of the below plus a lot of the "whiney entitled gamer" archetype. I sure hope they find happiness someday.

It's my fault. I signed up for it before I realized it was a pro China instance and the other day I said I'm not a Communist.

They've been reinvented repeatedly. Citrix, terminal servers, thin clients, cloud desktops, web apps, remote app delivery......

Most people (not necessarily here) need a web browser and an office program. Most people are well suited to terminals or something like a Chromebook.

I need actual hardware for my job and hobbies, but even I have a mini PC set up like a gaming console so that if I want to play games on my bedroom TV I don't have to hook up my Steam Deck or gaming laptop. I just stream them.
