He was a synonym for rich guy for awhile. And was even on WWE. So, depends how you define cool.

His whole plan was to avoid jail, I don't think he gives a damn what happens next beyond his own enrichment.

Panasonic, Genius Prestige.

That's actually super cool! (Admittedly, one of my favourite youtube channels is practical engineering so I am not an authority on actual coolness.)

Did you folks not have Red Shoe Diaries?

Honestly, carefully looking on marketplace, being willing to travel to the bougie end of town got me a high end microwave for cheapish and I'm never ever going back.

Sensor reheat, just heats my damn food. Frozen food setting, hell yeah, all thawed perfectly.

The rich live better and I'm fine enjoying their leavings.

I agreed to sub for a friend's soccer team despite having not played for a decade or so.

Fast forward a decade: I captain a team, play on two others, have made a boatload of awesome friends and am in better shape than I've ever been (which is a weird thing to say as an almost 40 year old.)

Oh, I think you're completely correct in a world where time is infinite. I just... I'd love to take up linux as a hobby and all the hours that entails but I have a lot of hobbies already. There are so mamy things I want to read before I die and fighting through Linux technical manuals to get my weird triple monitor/tv/receiver set up correctly, well, that isn't really up there in my top 50 life priorities.

Thank you! I will hopefully not have to take you up on this offer but I have it saved and already appreciate it!

Good to know! Being a Canadian, I'm pretty determined to transfer over to linux before Microsoft stops supporting windows 10 but have been pretty intimidated by various horror stories etc.

I can think of few better shots at America than getting linux to be a viable and free alternative to Windows for mainstream businesses and users.

 

He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion... Nor is it enough that he should hear the opinions of adversaries from his own teachers, presented as they state them, and accompanied by what they offer as refutations. He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them...he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.
