  I am unsure as to how “good” it is, but it does give off “made for TV” vibes (IMDB rating is 6.9 from merely 100 votes). It appears that the film was intended to be a series that never happened. I think the premise is quite interesting and was the initial reason I sought the show out. The search is made more alluring now because it is nowhere to be found. So far…

  We could party like it’s 1899!

  Or instead go bonkers as society devolves:

  I’m doing my part!

  I’ve loaded Mint on my prime system and a laptop, another laptop with Fedora, Manjaro on another main system I test with and EndeavorOS on all my media systems. I’ve also loaded about 8-10 other distros on Proxmox to play/test with.

  Where I had doubts on whether I needed anything off of the old MS system, I P2V’ed the OS and spool it up on Proxmox if needed to review any history within the OS/browser.

  I still have a couple of W10 VMs lingering and a Windows server. I’ll “upgrade” the workstation VMs to W11 (and shut them down) since I have the license and I can see sometimes having to use Windows for whatever dumb reasons. I’ll leave the Windows server for now to maintain the domain as that allows me to block telemetry with GPOs. I may tire of that at some point though as MS will further wane away on my network.

  My summer task is to convert all my 'Arrr software over to Linux versions. Still on W10 there. Wasn’t sure which distro to go to for that…

  With the lights off and playing alone that game was unnerving. I don’t think I ever finished it.

  Yes! Shouldn’t your parents tell you before you come home from school???

  Yah, I was about to mention ego being very much involved in all of this from the purchase of the “truck” to feeling spurned by not being asked to help. My ego would be hard-pressed to avoid educating him. Politely, of course.

  LOL. I have a truck for towing and other truck-related things and am quite happy to help others with aforementioned truck activities when asked. The amount of times I get upset when people don’t call me to do truck things is like, hmmmm let’s see…zero. It is zero times. A shrug is all I might manage to evoke from the drama.
