Just a few days ago I was thinking about firing up my 360 to play some Halo Reach. Any idea if the online matchmaking still works?

Yes! I still use my Panasonic 50" plasma as my daily driver. I still love it, it's an amazing TV :D

But, does it have wobbly windows?

Very cool, I was unaware of this product. Thanks for the deal! :D

Unfortunately, yes. Several years ago they started soldering the RAM directly to the motherboard, and don't provide any ram slots. So, whatever amount a unit shipped with is the max it will ever have.

I'm still using a mid-2009 MBP. Upgraded the RAM, replaced the hard drive with an SSD, and just last week installed Catalina on it. It's still my daily driver lol.

I do the exact same thing. Just a text file that these days I store in a Dropbox folder so that no matter what system I'm on I can just "vi ~/Dropbox/notes.txt".

Similarly, several years ago I added a keybind to my .vimrc that, by typing ",a" I'm moved to the bottom of the file and today's date with a separator line underneath. My leader key is "," and I mnemonically associate "a" with "append".

The earliest date recorded in it goes back to 2006 and is about 300KB in size. I still reference and add to it on a regular basis.

Thanks for that! I hadn't seen it before, that's pretty funny.

While ultimately true, the problem is that you can't control how other people think or judge, but you can control what you wear.

The immutability illusion was busted for me when SpaceX edited one of their video live-streams. Their intent was harmless in that they corrected a split-screen that was showing the same camera feed in both windows, IIRC.

However, when you visit that video's youtube page, the video date was listed as something like "Live-streamed on ...", with no note of it being edited. You are given the impression that what you are about to view is what was streamed, when it's not.

The edited version is a better video, but don't tell me I'm watching the same thing as those who saw it live during the stream.

Thank you for mentioning IrfanView. Back in the day I used to have a cracked copy of LviewPro that was always one of the 1st programs to be installed whenever I started working on a new system. It was small, fast, and I could easily flip through all the image files in a directory.

I stopped using LviewPro probably 8, or 10 years ago, but always wished I knew of a replacement that was so efficient. I see that IrfanView also does quite a bit more. I think I have a new favorite!

Now, if you'll pardon me, I need to drop the author a kind note. :)

Thank you, I had the same problem. Apt couldn't find it in my Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS install, and when I googled it I'm pretty sure "South Carolina Department of Corrections" wasn't what I was looking for. ;) So, thank you for the link.

Same here. The moment I saw "programmatic ads" I thought, "then what kind of ads do they have?"

I recently heard it called as being in a state of equilibrium. Not sure if that's the one you were thinking of, but it was in the context of ancient construction techniques and describes the same thing.

In the late 80s or early 90s I was interviewing for a data entry job at General Motors, and was told that they were getting burned frequently by blindly paying incoming invoices for goods or services that were never provided. I was surprised a scam that simple would be so effective.
