The Apple II was a good computer but if I lived in that era I probably would have used a Commodore 64 and later the Amigas or a i386 IBM clone.

Seymour, who reportedly had a daily rate of $150 for his translation services, lasted less than a day on the job before he was replaced.

$150 in 1977 is roughly $800 today. I don’t think he charged enough for such an epic troll.

Henry would’ve been proud!

Additionally, my wife has recently started watching Gossip Girl but I only catch glimpses of that show. Did anybody actually like that show when it came out?

True but I drew that comparison since they both donated to left wing parties in countries outside their native homeland. Soros is a prick but not for the reasons that the neo-Nazis would have you believe.

From the his Wikipedia:

More controversially, Feeney gave substantial personal donations to Sinn Féin, a left-wing Irish nationalist party that has been historically associated with the IRA.

He was a basically an Irish-American George Soros.

And it’s down Along the Falls Road, that’s where I long to be, Lying in the dark with a Provo company, A comrade on my left and another on me right And a clip of ammunition for my little Armalite.

I am a technology journalist – I like to think I am thoughtful about what data I share with corporations.

My brother in Christ, if you are a tech journalist then you, out of all people, should know not to give ANY data to corporations. That is a massive fuckup regarding your job.

Bravo! Couldn’t have said it better myself. Having been involved in bodybuilding and gym culture for 4 years now, there’s a lot of overlap between that and Nofap and other manosphere/right-wing nonsense; online that is. I almost fell down this rabbit hole myself.

Oh boy, it’s that time of year again. The NoFap team are no match for my peer-reviewed evidence.

OK, its just a deer…

What is this “fitness” they speak of? It seems to be from overseas. Could someone explain this to an American like me?

Hardened Firefox, here I come.

I really hope the GrapheneOS team succeed. Custom ROMs are reason I’m really into tech today. Coding, FOSS, Linux, etc. all that came from rooting my dad’s HTC phone back in the day. Google shouldn’t cannibalize its children.

As much as I to be optimistic, I doubt this will pass. So long as Wall Street is still a thing don’t expect any sort of regulations. Continue to buy second-hand, OEM unlocked phones on eBay.

Once again, the penguin was been vindicated.

UNDER JOLLY ROGER!

Hackers are the only saving grace in this increasingly dystopian world.

Looks interesting. If this is a web comic, where can I read the rest?
