I'm in IT. I get cold called by VAR trying to sell me HPE here and there. I tell them straight up I won't buy HP cause of their business practices.

I believe he wants it to a payment thing like PayPal or some shit. And I imagine that's what his lackies are doing in the Treasury. He will force the US to use it for all their payments. I wouldn't be surprised with like X bucks too.

Apparently we are actually two brains. And one half can't talk. But does make choices on its own that can disagree with the other half.

Something they used to do is cut the connecting tissue between the two brain half's. People who have had that happen have explain how the difference sides of their bodies will sometimes disagree with the other. And when that happens the talking half might come up a really non sensical reasoning to why it did what it did.

CGP Grey did a video on it. And if you search split brains you can probably find more. There an interview with someone on YouTube I watched a long time ago.

I used ResEdit to fix an issue with my school's email system.

Someone used a Hypercard stack I made to "break" a computer, It got me banned from the school computers. Same school even.

I have this issue with my stove top, which burner goes to with nob/diagram. Does the picture line flat or flip over. I only every end up using the one with both high and low cause it's easy to tell which it is.

Valve is currently working on some tech to let x86 games work on arm64.

My current phone is an F5. One of my worst Android experiences has been this phone before I put a different ROM. Never would buy another one without being able to unlock the bootloader.

Took the Epic money, loose my sale. World of Goo 1 was awesome. Much disappointment.

Funny enough they do. Before Dark Reader on Firefox on Android I had a Chrome flag that did the same thing. But Dark Reader does a better job IMO.

Here's the best part to that. Safari's back end is called WebKit. At one point in time it was considered best in class. It was also the backend for Chrome as well for awhile.

Sorry HP. You already sour'd me on everything you make.

When VARs call me if they do HP I tell them no. I won't work with anything HP.
