Anethor Pathc Toesday with Mikrosoft Wankers 10 August 8, 2017—KB4034658 (OS Build 14393.1593)
Oh hey, my win10 install is stuck in an endless loop of installs. Windows support has been unresponsive for 2 days. Seriously, I used to be surprised that MS lost their dominance from the 90’s, sure as fuck not surprised anymore. They fucking OWN us, yet manage to secure...

This happened like a year ago, but I’m trying to get through my long ass list of projects. Most of them are small and trivial, and I hesitate to even post them here. Wow, you cut a cord, flipped the polarity and now your power supply is negative-center! Huzzah!...
Freedom Ain’t Free
Our liberty and freedoms are practical, if not easy. We don’t always get what we want. We have to share a country with people who are different from ourselves in a million different ways. We share a country with people we love and also those we hate. It...
Democrats for Donald Trump. How to worship our new King.
Watching the transition process has gotten me thinking about what is motivating Trump. Fame, perhaps and always money. Personally I believe he will struggle with the negative attention he will receive as president. He truly does lack the temperament for the job. I don’t believe he has a hard...

Why the ever-living fuck isn’t the NEXT > Button on the right? We read from left to right. So the concept of motion is left to right.. so why does choosing the rightmost button take you backwards?! This metaphor of pages turning, or moving places from left to right...
