If it’s good enough for Chewbacca, who am I to argue?

Two laptops? Is one for work? I have to carry two phones, unfortunately. Work and personal.

Interesting, never heard of runner belts. Makes sense that they would sell something like that. Runners need to carry stuff, too. Thanks for mentioning it.

Every option is a compromise.

If you’re slender and wear pants that are fitted (not baggy) it’s challenging. Bigger guys with loose fit pants can get a surprising amount in the naturally larger pockets.

A courier bag AKA messenger bag is the man’s version of a purse, and is certainly an acceptable option. It is annoying to carry all day and keep up with. But you won’t have the weird-looking pocket bulges. They come in myriad sizes and designs.

There’s the “utility belt” thing where you clip a phone holster to your belt. They also make pouches for this. I think one or the other is “OK” but definitely wouldn’t do both. You’ll end up looking like Batman or a police officer. Things clipped to my belt are annoying to me, but some guys do it every day and it works fine for them.

Some guys wear vests with lots of pockets. A select few can actually pull this off, but, it’s going to look dorky 95% of the time, IMHO.

Windbreaker or light jacket with pockets is another good option. But in the summer, not always ideal.

Hopefully it’s gotten better, but I know years ago song lyrics sites were a major source of malware.

You can vote for more than one candidate, but you rank them by order of preference. This way, third party and independent candidates actually have a chance.

Horizon Forbidden West. Went on sale earlier this week.

I try to remember that we’re voting for an entire administration and presidential appointments, an apparatus much larger than one old man. It’s cold comfort, but it’s something.

As I’m watching it, Mozart’s Requiem in D minor is playing in my head.

Upvote for semi-unpopular opinion.

I think you’re wrong about the shortage being ‘solved’ by NAT. NAT is great for LAN and WAN in the developed world, but there are billions of folks in remote developing areas where it’s not much help. It also severely limits the big chunks of address spaces that can be allocated to business, universities, governments, etc. It is not a trivial problem waved away by NAT.

I think it will continue to be a very gradual but relentless rollout of IPv6. Not saying it will be fast. But 30 years from now, if we haven’t destroyed civilization, I suspect IPv4 will be a quaint relic. And IPv6 will never run out of addresses.

That is fascinating. I wonder if the wavelength of green light is better because of something akin to harmonic resonance.

Kyle uses “son” a lot. Makes me chuckle.

I had a buddy in the UK I chatted with on this thing in the early days. We thought we were so cool using it. We were not.

Was surprised it wasn’t already on the list.

Researchers will be studying Trump and his followers for decades to come. A gold mine of data to help them better understand the mechanisms of authoritarian populism and cognitive dissonance.

Ain’t that the truth.

It’s so hard to get his attention, he just sorta lies there!

LOL! Of course!
