I'm a leftist GenX whose served aboard 3 nuclear submarines, over a 20 year career. Ive slept between ballistic nuclear missiles, on top of torpedoes, mines, and tomahawk missiles early in my career, but later, switched to a standard bed (rack) on the boats..can I reflect and make a fuss?

Musk meant $100 credit, towards the purchase of a cybertruck. 🫤

If he drops the price to about $8k and includes lifetime fast charging, I'd consider one. Of course, for $8k, there are plenty of much nicer used trucks available on the market, though.

I switched to Linux after my experience with Windows Millennium Edition. Many people have since referred to me as some sort of programming genius and hacker.....I don't know crap about any of that. I've simply followed instructions and referred to the help communities, whenever I've had trouble. Using the mainstream distributions (I'm guessing) has kept me from having much trouble.

I think my kids may benefit, as my wife only uses Mac, I have 2 Ubuntus and a Mint, and the kids use Chromebooks at school. We have 2 iPad and a Galaxy tab in the house. 1 kid has an Android phone and the other an iPhone. My wife and I both have flagship Android phones.

Sometimes it's fun to watch them debate over which systems they prefer, depending on the school projects they work on.

My parents had a neighborhood grocery store when I was a kid. Our house only had a single bathroom, so often, I'd be getting ready for school at the same time she was getting ready to go into work, and we'd both be in the bathroom. I'd finish my shower, and be wrapping up in my towel behind the curtain, while she'd be doing her hair in the mirror, having imaginary arguments with "bitchy customers." - At least that was her answer when I finally asked her what the deal was with her arguing into the mirror in the morning.

About 8 years after that song came out, one of my uncles saw the CD in my truck, pointed at that song on the case, and exclaimed, "Holy shit! Have you ever paid attention to the words in that song?!" Uhh, yup.

IIRC, "delay, decline, depose" were in memos from UHC. Does that mean UHC is liable for the same charges for any paying customers who died, while being delayed, denied and deposed? Corporations are people as well, after all.

They'll be all about "forgetting" about that separation, all the way up until someone opens Beezlebubs Intermediate School of the Damned - then they'll be up in arms again.

Slam it so hard you could make it ding. If you were still mad, you could then yank the cord out of the wall. If you still weren't done, you could throw it across the room, and it would be just fine, when you calmed down, plugged it back in, and set it on the table again.
