So, I was bored stiff at work today with quite literally nothing to do, so my office partner handed me the voter info guide and I took a gander or two. Here is the Troll flaming hot take awards from the voter guide. Enjoy. The We Will Sit this one out award: The American Independent…

The Beekeeper meets AI
I had a talk with my father-in-law yesterday and this topic came up. The following happened to him. You get a call from your bank informing you that you are the victim of a fraudulent charge. The person on the phone has a caller ID stating that it’s your bank calling. They have your account…

Today, Microsoft announced that it was terminating its TechNet subscription service. It will stop new subscribers and renewals on August 31st. I have periodically been a subscriber since the 1990’s.

I’m writing this blog to chronicle my attempts to run this Windows 98 game from 1999 on a modern PC. Nothing that I could find on the Internet seemed to have all the answers in one location. I hope this will help others wishing to run this program. First off my equipment. • I own…

The US Supreme Court laid another stinky pile of manure today on its way out of town for summer vacation. To me this makes no legal sense. First they invalidated DOM (the federal Defense of Marriage Act) on the basis that states have the right to decide what their marriage laws should be. Then, in…
