FWIW I love 90s ads, especially the video game ads. Electronic Gaming Monthly would bombard you with "extreme in your face 'tude" for even the most prosaic games. I loved the Gaiar…

I decided to put the goal of making friends on "Hard Mode." I quit drinking.

I recommend a group fitness class gym. This brings me much joy and I lost 60 pounds. A positive 3rd space.

I have an Astel & Kern SE-100. Amazing build and sound.

I worked for five companies in two years about a decade ago (Pre retail Gen-AI). All of them had the exact same mission slide deck. Same goals, same priorities, same strategy.

I heard Collectors Universe/ PSA will launch "Moist Towlette Grading" in the next quarter.

I did a FLAC rip of my CD's and now play them on my Astel and Kern MP3 player. It sounds AMAZING, and I don't have a huge binder of CDs cluttering up my office.

Is there any way to buy long (decades) lasting physical media?

I used to work for NOAA. I think the scientists would flip out over this. Did you share it?

This site makes me cackle with joy because of my failed attempts. Kind of like "QWOP."

"North Korea’s border with South Korea is a disputed border as both countries claim the entirety of the Korean Peninsula." - I did not know South Korea felt this way!

I will say I endorse Rick Owens. Amazing aesthetic.

I printed this out for the looming Zombie apocalypse.

If this inspires anyone to bust out an MD/ Genesis emu, I recommend "Subterrainia." I found it too hard in my youth, but I see now it has a near perfect learning curve. The more yo…

"Where are the Romans now?" "You're looking at them." - Tony Soprano

I asked Candidates (who claimed to work at site) to describe the parking at their office, Garage or Flat? Some of them couldn't answer that question. If they did answer, I would as…

I get dozens of cold emails and LI messages from sales/ recruiting a week. Only about one per year writes "I read your blog and liked your point about xyz." I always take that call…

I have a historic house with a hand carved/ uniquely shaped door. The jamb rotted and we paid a woodworker $4k to create a replacement. The door itself would easily cost $25k to re…

Phenomenal interactive website. Thank you.

Good for digital content/ app developers. If they add logistics and shipping services, they could threaten Shopify.

Related, if someone looks like they will get violent with you, ask them "Who won the game last night?" and slug them while their brain pauses to process and answer the question.

I love my current job, but also part of me thinks a Garbage Man would provide a cool experience. (I'm ok with the stinkiness). I just think about careening through the city at the …

Instead of chasing a "serious" AI movie, we need a comedy movie that parodies the worst of AI slop, just takes it to ludicrous extremes. That could actually entertain me.
