It's been too long, I don't know if I remember my voice any other way.

I feel like most of the items aren't going to be real troubleshooting.

It's been a good bit since I worked the support desk, but even with generic microsoft updates, most of the 'questions' were basically the worst users finding a way to say 'It used to be this and I want it to be this way, hold my hand for an hour while telling me its not this way anymore until I get tired and then complain to someone else'.

Nah, it's been awhile, but I've been an electrician. When you get a foreman who has made it to that special level of asshole, your give a fuck starts to run out incredibly fast. Even if you're not the kind of guy who would do this yourself, someone working with you probably is.

With that said, I don't think this would pass code, but I'm honestly curious as to which part it violates specifically. The wire doesn't look like it's secured properly at least, but this might be one of those things where this is where they learn that they need to write some new passages.

I like Trakt as a concept, I've used it sporadically, but their pricing was always optimistic, even at $30 a year. It has worked for them overall so far because it's a well made project and people like them, but the value proposition of paying $5 a month now for something like Trakt feels crazy. It's hard to look at different types of services at that price point and come to the conclusion that Trakt is comparable. There are actual streaming services creating some of the shows that show up on Trakt that are very similar in price (Dropout as a good example).

Only rational thing I can think of with this recent decision is that they're tired of running Trakt and hoping to sell it off or close it up.

That one is about Chris Sawyer. He'll remind people that there was a bit of C in there, but 99% x86 assembly / machine code in his words.

Zen koans are basically ancient memes.

That didn't count, it was a documentary.

At some point you'll be talking to someone a lot younger than you and realize that somehow they're still an adult and then immediately after they'll do something incredibly immature. Will make that top line will drop so fast.

No one to cheer for, we don't do good guys anymore, just various levels of bad guys fighting between themselves.

People also forget that he's legitimately not a democrat. Bernie Sanders is an independent, he joined the democratic party when he was running for president but left afterwards.

Shit, I think we've all been asking ourselves that on a regular basis for years now and here we are still regularly surprised.

Or Red Shoe Diaries, people kinda forgot that his big role before X-files was just softcore porn.
