Thank you.

I always have the keyboard attached, so that’s not a big deal for me. Thank you for the review.

Thank you, that’s great to hear! I’ll do it next week.

I’d just like to interject for moment. What you’re referring to as Parents, are in fact, GNU/Parents, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Parents

Any trouble spots on the Surface? I have a 2017 model that could use a refresh, but I was worried about the touch screen, digitizer pen, and detachable keyboard.

That’s exactly what I would do - Get the neighbors to chip in and buy the lot to parcel up and add to our yards.

Do you pronounce it “KAYbin”, “kubin”, or some other way?

I have heard that very often. I wonder if bikes are harder to track down than other property for some reason.

I’ve read several reviews that suggest DIY beef jerky is only slightly cheaper, and it’s a surprising amount of work per pound. The TL;DR of those reviews was that it’s just not worth it.

Has that not been your experience? I love to eat it but it’s pretty expensive.

In my experience, you get spacers to make the VESA mount flat.

It’s disturbingly common! I guess it’s just the current trend of “inappropriate relationship”, which used to be nurse/patient, teacher/student, boss/secretary, etc. It’s more pathetic (to me) to see the cast “acting” as family members than to pretend to be a certified teacher. I’ve got to assume they roll their eyes whenever the camera stops rolling.

Speculative Fiction /Science Fiction covers such a huge range of potential topics!

I’m a huge fan of the older masters Heinlein/Clarke/Niven/Asimov/EE Smith, etc. Many of their stories are smaller in scope than a typical space opera (not counting the absurd scale of Foundation!).

Ian Banks’s Culture books have fascinating worlds and usually great characterization. I highly recommend them.

In Military Sci-fi, I’m a big fan of Jack Campbell’s Lost Fleets serieses. Honestly most of the characters aren’t terribly deep, but it’s great fun. My #1 shared world is Battletech (big robots), but because that’s been written by so many authors, the quality really varies.

I really didn’t like the first book, but I can’t not finish reading one. The Chinese political side was really interesting, the concept of folding up dimensions was neat (not unique, though; I’ve read of computers or ships or creatures that only exist as an abstract version of their higher-dimensional selves) but the game stuff was extremely boring. Maybe it was a translation issue, but most of the time spent with the aliens was painful.

I got 0 linux, 4 AI, and 2 porn. Nice.

Which temple is this?

Thanks, homie.

Which of the tools in the picture is that?

Fantastic work. Just excellent.
