Go outside and sit with the smokers.
Smokers talk. Everyone's equal in the smoke pit. You can meet some really interesting people that way.
A few hours of secondhand smoke won't kill you. Otherwise humanity would have gone extinct in the 70s.

You must have been living under a rock for the last decade. Is there any more space available down there? 'Cause I'd love to live somewhere where I don't have to hear antivax nonsense.
Divide the circumference by π, it's a bit over an inch in diameter. Somewhere between 3 to 4cm.
Calling a penis a "pee-pee" is just a quirk of how they talk there. It's pretty harmless compared to most of the defining points of 4chan culture.
It's a story about the Navy. "Is lashed" is appropriate here.
Sorry, but as soon as a website starts throwing pop-ups at me I close it. Why people tolerate that nonsense is beyond me.
ISPs included email because almost everyone was a modem user (and hence only connected sporadically) and email servers need constant uptime or they lose messages.
They also ran news servers and hosted user web pages for basically the same reason.
Only freaks and weirdos (like me) ran servers from home.
Uncle Gandalf, more like.
Be careful with those cameras, they're collector's items now.
Looks good! Wish my hotel Wi-Fi would let me see the video.
GNU is a project whose goal is to create a free operating system.
Way back in the dark ages when commercial UNIX was relevant, it was common to install various GNU utilities to get a better user experience or get things like a C compiler without having to pay tons of money for it.
The kernel part of the project didn't work out, so the de facto purpose of the GNU project morphed into creating better utilities and libraries for other operating systems.
When the Linux kernel came around, the GNU software was the base of system. That's why RMS insists on the GNU/Linux thing.
Things like the window system and desktop environment aren't really considered part of the OS by folks like RMS (and me, for that matter). It's probably an age thing - used to be there was a "core" system and various add-ons. The core system is the OS in our world view.
That's exactly right... For now.
But if there's coal in that mountain, we can level the whole thing like they do in West Virginia and leave a nice flat spot for an industrial park when we're done.
Sure, buddy. Keep thinking that.
