Being an old hardware geek right now is kinda frustrating, because the machine is supposed to obey ME, not the other way 'round.
You dont tell me what to do, and i dont get the screwdrivers and change your mind for you, little machine.

Yall should see the #DragRace fandom. Theyre the most cannibalistic fandom ever seen. They fire at will.

Im going to ask you to meditate on your privilege there.
Theres a reason why we called it "following". It is a one-way relationship. There is no causal connection to a follow-back, implied or otherwise. Never has been.

Thursday is #PinkShirtDay, supporting anti-bullying efforts. It’s a worthy cause and it has my full support. Still, being an #ElderGeek, I will always think of my Team OS/2 days when I think of pink t-shirts.
Went2 get a haircut 2day. The barber shop has a lot of 60's & 70's memorabilia displayed, a fair amount is sci-fi, including early sci-fi.
Hair stylist asked when I had first seen Star Trek, & what got me in2 sci-fi. A big part of my answer? "I like2 call myself an #ElderGeek."

I remember back in the day in #AsheronsCall, how easily we used to pump #Turbine developer DevilMouse for information, because he was so excited by what he was doing, thought it was just genuinely so cool, he could not wait to share it with people who Grokked.
He was right, btw.

I miss the Binaries and NGs some days. There was a lot less bickering and a lot more Wall-O-Text with actual detailed information one had to mentally compile before responding.
FFS, we used to argue in BULLET POINT LISTS. Now its just who gets the last word or the bedt one-up.

Thanks. As a veteran of some of the last LunaCons, when "media" was still a side track, i now feel absolutely decrepit. I shall write a verse of Banned from Argo in your honor.
