The 2038 problem is going to be +3C global warming, ensuing wet bulb temperatures and mass starvation due to breadbasket failures. (debbie downer sound)

Wow, that's really cool! We've been talking about doing something similar with movie clips, making them into a cool flowing playlist.

 

By "unconventional" I mean something other than classical visual or audio arts like painting, sculpture, music, etc.

I've never been a very "artistic" person. But when I took my first programming class, I worked on my code like it was a sculpture. I found beauty in making my code clean, efficient, easy to read, and user-friendly. It still seems weird and affectatious to say, and I wasn't really expecting that kind of experience from that class! It was one of the only times I ever felt "artistic."

But why not? Any medium can be artful.

What's your non-traditional art?

What kind of weed helps concentration? The kind I've had makes me lose interest in my own sentences halfway through.

even the rich are worried

Good.

Wow. Someone at the SEC is either being very brave, very stupid, or knows something we don't.

Are the "Windows evangelists" in the room with us right now? Every Windows admin I know hates Microsoft with a burning rage. Literally the only people I've ever seen promote Windows are being paid to do it.

Counterintuitively, that's one reason I like dealing with Windows: the community knows what it is and doesn't pretend otherwise, like some other more "zealous" fan bases.

You think the US is the only autocratic place on Earth? The remainder of the Democratic West isn't going to start policing every regressive regime on the planet, starting with the biggest military on the planet.

There is no legally protecting yourself from the prerogative state, i.e. whatever the dictator wants. We have to follow rules. They don't.

This isn't even funny, and I have a great sense of humor! ๐Ÿ˜ก /s
