Not surprising. For anyone interested, here’s a good doc about his policies with public lands during his 1st term:

- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I was a 2600 kid growing up. And I remember saving allowance and mowing lawns so I could eventually afford a NES. I ended up caving though and used that money to buy my cousin’s Colecovision.
While it was still no NES, that was still an awesome jump in graphics compared to the 2600. I did eventually get that NES a couple years later.
My other cousin up the street had a C64. I agree there were some awesome games on there and we would have a blast playing at his place.

You are correct- from what I remember. I dug up this old photo up from my device but have no idea what artist did it.

This pic is at least 15 years old I think. Not AI but part of some art project as another poster noted below.

- Comment on Comedy shows have laugh tracks cuz they aren't that funny 6 months ago:
There was a great take on one of these called “Everybody Hates Raymond”
It was the show Everybody Loves Ramon but the laugh track was completely replaced with boos and was frickin hilarious. I think it got removed from YouTube though cuz I haven’t been able to find it for years.
- Comment on Nothing is requiring employees to be in the office five days a week 6 months ago:
Yeah I was expecting this to be a thought piece in general about companies requiring them be back in office.

- Comment on Ecovacs home robots can be hacked to spy on their owners, researchers say 6 months ago:
I dispise vacuuming and sweeping and I have 2 canines, so there’s a lot of fur and grime on the floor that needs regular tending to. I bought the roomba model that is self charging and self emptying, so you can just let it run in a set it and forget it fashion.
Alternatively, it also actually helps motivate me to do other chores as well. I have to pick up everything off the floor before running the vac, and at that point I just start tidying up other things while letting it run.
- Comment on The Hulk would be FUCKING TERRIFYING if he only became The Hulk when he was horny. 6 months ago:
Kinda thought you were talking about Hulk Hogan which would also be terrifying in its own right.
- Comment on Ecovacs home robots can be hacked to spy on their owners, researchers say 6 months ago:
I’m not super happy about it, but my roomba is absolutely essential now that I’ve been spoiled with it. I don’t like the idea of any of my appliances being online straight tied to a vendor’s app and service - but I’m willing to accept the trade off in this instance. Maybe someday I’ll upgrade to a different robot vac. I know there are FOSS setups to work around some of those challenges and circumvent some of the BS.

Just got this bullshit offer from Ticketmaster for one of their breaches and they are only offering 1 year free credit monitoring.

- Comment on Are all phone calls voip (voice over Internet protocol) now? 9 months ago:
If I am going to interpret your question verbatim, I would feel pretty confident in saying 99.9% of phone calls will traverse a VoIP trunk when they are connected. Does that mean it’s a VoIP call?
You have to remember the Public Switched Telephone Network is a bunch of different phone providers interconnected through all kinds of different protocols. Anytime you’re making a phone call, it’s going to hit a VoIP trunk at some point regardless if you’re calling from one of the few true analog lines left.
And as many pointed out in this thread, even if you have an analog line at your home or office, the chances are pretty high it is just a “handoff” that is probably connected to a VoIP device right on the other side - whether it’s at your site or at the providers central office.
There are still true copper lines and T1s out there but providers really want to get out of that space and are jacking up the rates for these services so high that it is forcing people to move dedicated VoIP service.
Side rant: I just really wish fax machines would go away. They are a challenge sometimes to get them working over a VoIP connection…
