And was a dancer. And was a competitive diver. And was a fencer (the stolen goods kind).
To your point, he honestly made me appreciate how actors have lives outside of the set.

- Comment on Plex Users Fear New Feature Will Leak Porn Habits to Their Friends and Family 1 year ago:
I loath Plex. A year or two ago I tried to switch to JellyFin but there was no app for my then 2-year-old LG TV. Apparently that was too old, and that’s just a natural manifestation of a non-commercial app.
Maybe I would have better luck with a Roku but it’s hard to beat the integration of built-in apps.

- Comment on They won't teach you this in Drivers Ed 1 year ago:
The infotainment system in my friend’s truck would periodically get wonky and he would have to pull over, turn the truck off, wait a minute, then turn it back on.
We always joked that he had to do a Ctrl-Alt-Brake Pedal.

- Comment on T-Mobile switches users to pricier plans and tells them it’s not a price hike 1 year ago:
You can tell that this is just a cash grab, as opposed to a technical or administrative motivation, by the mere fact that Simple/Select Choice plans will be migrated to Magenta, while Magenta plans will be migrated to Go5G. So Magenta isn’t going anywhere for the foreseeable future.
Also, of course, by the fact that you can opt out of the “upgrade.”
I switched to T-Mobile a few years ago and, coming from AT&T, it had been hands-down a positive experience. More features, unlimited data, better customer service, better speeds, all for less than what I was paying AT&T. I even have a line or two that was added for free, no strings attached.
But then there were the many data breaches. And now this.
Looks like I came on board just in time to witness the enshitification
- Comment on Let's talk about the curious and ingenious DriveSpace, an MS-DOS program promising to double the available disk space. 1 year ago:
I used the proprietary predecessor, Stacker.
It was pretty magical. It turned my 40 MB hard drive into a (seemingly) 80 MB hard drive.
I don’t remember there being a significant performance penalty, because it was presumably overshadowed by the relatively (compared to processor speed) disk speeds.
