And one thing we learn as we've been hanging around in Time long enough to recognize larger cycles, is the world changes, people dont. Even as we change the world.

>the connect() function returns a TCP socket that allows developers to read and write data until the connection remains open.

I sorta stopped caring about grammatical errors since I realized English is but a second language to many people.

I wonder of The Editor has regretfully gone the way of the dodo in 'technical' writing..

Can anyone explain the noticable symptoms of interference or radiating, in situations where usb is not filtered?

I was similarly going to mention Loopanics press which i used to collect. (principia discordia, lock-picking)

Pynchon isn't "difficult". Try getting stoned before reading.

Actually, this is EXACTLY how many addicts KICK. They make a decision.

If one is using aforementioned kitty-term, one can also declair a different font family per character/range-of-characters I believe..

mobb_solo | 4 years ago | on: Simple server alerts on a need-to-know basis

Makes sense to me. However, I was still inspired by this writeup / approach. Specifically for hobbiest projects. I also think for the time being, I may implement this on my lame closet server.

I never once thought that I was clicking on this post to behold a tale of True Genius. Nor did I expect that OP believed that.

I think the title reflects that semantic sentiment.

I always felt that much of Kurt Vonnegut's charm was due to the simplicity. If that ties in with what you were saying.

Of course that doesn't imply the images and ideas are simple.

A poor man's Vonnegut, and a Lazy man's Pynchon..heh..

I for one, am at LEAST 50% less effective with people if I am not face-to-face with them.

[ONE reason why ] I'm convinced that this whole pandemic thang is a conspiracy against ME, personally.

I do not make friends online --never mind participate in social media-- due to the simple Fact that I just don't seem to translate over the wire. Only my closest friends seen to avoid being offended by my text messages..

This naturally happens in an automobile as well after driving the stateside highways long enough.
