- Comment on Where there people in the 1980's who refused to call 3.5" floppy disks floppy disks? 8 hours ago:
I was still a kid in the ‘80s, but basically grew up around (and in, sometimes), computer stores and computers. I don’t recall hearing this.
- Comment on How many of us are actually into football (and what teams)? 12 hours ago:
I’m not into any variety of football. I enjoy seeing an odd highlight or good play, but not the whole match. I played for 3 years in school (and american football for one), but I don’t really enjoy eatching it. Ice Hockey is probably the thing I most enjoy and even that is mostly only if I go in person.

I think the line was about the ‘day and time’ or something so others are like “I’m not doing that; I’m just going to predict the day!” I can’t remember the exact way.
- Comment on Email ownership, I give up. 2 weeks ago:
I used to run my own mailserver, but I haven’t in years now since it was so much of a pain. Not even the set-up part; that wasn’t the worst thing in the world. It’s uptime, back-ups, and other considerations that just require time and money I don’t have.

Chaucer?! That hack? You young upstarts haven’t even read Gower, I bet.
