“Dudes and dudettes” seems more on the level.

Just the concept of a plan?

“Invitation to Love”, the soap opera within the show “Twin Peaks”.

Came here for this!

Deep thoughts from Teflon Don.

For a brief moment during Bush(Cheney) years, there was this screensaver with some of the more outlandish quotes from his press briefings.

He had a way with words, and that way was to go nowhere. It was an art form.

Reminds me of an oldie:

“Roses are red, Violets are blue. Some poems rhyme, This one don’t.”

Sadly, yes.

RSS off of other profile content (such as posts) serves an acceptable function I guess (e.g. cross-posting, blog feed) but sharing saved posts does not meet the cut for some reason.

Feel free to jump on that ticket and articulate a more compelling argument, if it’s still open. More votes might change their stance over time.

Yes, you can wash sneakers in the washer. Delicate, cold, small amount of detergent, laces out (Dan!) and in a laundry bag or the pair entirely in a bag laundry bag.

You can wash with other sneakers but I wouldn’t wash with clothes.

Consider getting a boot/mitt/hat dryer (like the ones at Costco). Very handy for quick drying and no mold, bacteria, fungi stink. I use mine all year round for this and weather related needs.

Note that the fabric on the soles might let go over time. The glue isn’t so strong.

Yes, right beside the “Turbo” button that you’d never turn off (I mean, why would you).

Some of those were cylinder keyboard locks, like the old bike locks that were vulnerable to the Bic pen trick.

An AI-powered Clippy… have we learned nothing from Star Trek Lower Decks about what can go wrong with this??

This isn’t the first time he’s been attacked.

This is great! Thank you so much for giving me some direction here.

I’m going to give this a whirl on one of the units and see how it goes.

Thanks, that’s very kind of you to offer.

I’ve got quite a few older machines. I’m pretty keen to figure out the top four, at least.

Any advice on the following and/or on the method of identifying viable distros and versions in general is very appreciated.

• MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2.53 GHz, Mid 2009)
• iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009)
• Mac mini Server (Mid 2010)
• MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2013)
• MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)
• iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)
• Mac mini 2018

Question for you guys.

How do you know which version to install relative to the hardware? Is it just trial and error?

I have some 13 year old Macs but I’m not sure which distro and version to go with and I’m not keen on spending days figuring it out.

I recall reading another post from some guy who went through like six installs with various problems. Didn’t seem encouraging.

Sounds like asthma or walking pneumonia even, but I’m no doctor. I recommend getting checked out.

Hunh, I thought I was hearing “The Oral Germ Whore”.

You can self-host Feedbin or you can get a paid account for $30 USD.

Lots of great functionality built-in. I use Unread app for iOS as the front-end instead of Feedbin’s web app. A paid Unread account would also give you RSS feed hosting, but less feature rich.

Yes exactly, a game changer for me as well.

I used to use tap water too. I have to highlight why distilled or boiled water is important though. Tap water isn’t sterile and there have been cases of microbes creating infections when used with Neti pots.

Naegleria fowleri is a brain-eating amoeba that has been linked to tap water usage in Neti pots, among other scenarios.

These cases are rare, to be fair, but still worth avoiding with distilled or boiled water. There could be other less fatal microbes junking things up, after all.

I gotta clarify, boiled but then cooled water for use in your Neti pots!
