Where the HELL is my triceratops?

Because he was a power-mad heel that would have loved to keep being president indefinitely, if the threat of impeachment for illegal activities hadn’t caused him to resign.

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” has been my model 😉 And Wired aside, it does work phenomenally well. But I will take a look at your suggestion.

I use Block This! on my Android device, which essentially a pseudo-VPN that blackholes ad requests (as well as some trackers and miscellany). Wired bounces me immediately if I have it enabled.

They also paywall some ad-blockers.

I feel personally attacked

Anyone have a non-paywall link?

Because there’s literally other no single guys her age in this tiny Midwest town, and he’s new enough that he hadn’t built up a rep.

My understanding is that if you run a rogue discoverable DHCP server in a local network with a particular set of options set and hyper-specific routing rules, you can clobber the routing rules set by the VPN software on any non-Android device, and route all traffic from those devices through arbitrary midpoints that you control.

But IANANE (I am not a network engineer) so please correct my misinterpretations.

I learned TI BASIC on a Texas Instruments 99/4a back in the very early 80s. Wrote some programs from magazines, saved them on tapes, and went on to automate D&D character creation in an attempt to rules-lawyer an all-PC dwarf army.

Fun fact, though: TI BASIC lived on until at least the late 90s, on the TI graphing calculators that everyone taking Algebra/Trig had to buy – or borrow from the school. I wrote a surreal choose-your-own-adventure game on my calculator, large enough that because of memory limitations, you couldn’t open the file to edit it without deleting another, ancillary file.

And since you could transfer programs via a proprietary cable, I put that game on every school calculator and as many of my friends’ as wanted it. It was still there years later when I visited.

Interesting article. I think the money quotes that shifted my POV a little were these:

It has become a leading source of information in this country. About one-third of Americans under 30 regularly get their news from it.

and

American law has long restricted foreign ownership of television or radio stations, even by companies based in friendly countries. “Limits on foreign ownership have been a part of federal communications policy for more than a century,”

It does place the ban in some more relevant historical context.

I would argue that a live-in landlord that does maintenance work or acts as a building super is in fact doing a job.

Otherwise, agreed.

I’ve seen things! They’re often in disguise

Yeah, I always assumed Limekiller was at least in his 50s 😧

No idea! I wonder if Breathed or the editors just felt it was a weaker arc.

This was definitely not included in any of the US-published compilation books!

Imagine a time when Chicken McNuggets were a brand new thing.

Dammit, sold out in NYC.
