It seems to have a little trouble with lynx... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)

Sometimes the marginalia are more interesting than the work itself.

PBS and NPR have long been my go-to sources for news. Very much in the classic "who, what, when and where" vein. Editorial content is small, segregated and usually includes advocates for both sides. Blissfully boring and informative...

I spent much of this afternoon playing xNetHack[1] on Hardfought[2]. My first exposure was 30 years ago to a DOS port laboriously downloaded from a dial-up BBS. No web, no documentation, no wiki[3]. And I've loved every minute of it...

I have long wanted this[1] for my ringtone...

Reminds me of a hockey goalie mask...

This is the poem I used for speech contests in high school...

Lynx[1] supports only HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1. Most denials seem to come from nginx sites. I assume it is their default...

Fascinating site...

My introduction to jumping spiders was as a child on a long, boring drive in the back seat of a Buick. One emerged from somewhere down in the door and crawled onto the glass. When I moved closer it would back away. When I moved back it would follow me. When I tilted my head to get a better look it tilted in response. We kept this nonsense up for the rest of the trip...

When I was a kid my dad gave me his war surplus radio. He had been a communications officer in WWII. It was a huge metal box with a separate speaker. Inside it was full of tubes, wires and other stuff. I knew nothing about it so I turned it on, ran a wire outside for an antennae and started spinning dials and flipping switches. It kept me amused for years. Eventually I stumbled across actual broadcasts such as BBC and Radio Luxembourg. But the funniest was the English language Radio Moscow. It was filled with vignettes of happy working couples in their modern apartment living a fulfilling life in the Soviet Union. The stuff was risible to even a child in the 1950's...

My admittedly US-centric solution is NPR[1] and PBS[2], both primarily funded by donations and contributors...

I have my lynx set to accept all cookies (makes for far less bother) but somehow seem to have forgotten to tell lynx where to store them. Logout of the browser and "poof" they all disappear...

Mama Sally died when I was an infant but I have a studio photo of her. Parasol, large flowered bonnet and full length skirt. All very Edwardian from the early 1900's. As for the features, I look far more like her than my wife. Perhaps the trigger was my wife was a comforting female. She did quite a nice job of being a doting mother soothing an ailing 100 year old child...

My wife and I experienced this when my father died. We visited him hours before his death. He looked up at my wife, smiled and said "Mother, you came!" For the next while she sat beside him, rubbed his brow and engaged in small talk as his mother. When he fell asleep we left. He died during the night...

I find it interesting that Pollock was a student of the American Regionalist Thomas Hart Benton[1]. No two artists could have been more unalike...

This is apparently how malignant narcissists react to being slighted...

If you need me, I'll be arranging deck chairs on the Titanic...

I do all of my NetHack gaming via ssh to Hardfought[1]. They offer the current vanilla and previous ones all the way back to 1.3d. However they specialize in variants. My favorite variant is xNetHack[2]...

NetHack is alive, well and possibly a bit over documented:

It's been a long time since I've heard that dot matrix sound. Wide carriage OKI Data and a big pile of green bar...

KMFA is a non-profit, listener-supported classical music station that has been broadcasting for over half a century. They also stream their content for the web:

My wife and I have been together for 46 years, 44 of them married. Yet we still make each other giggle, grin and blow milk out our noses every day. Sarcasm is our native language. Our interests are wildly different but that is of little import. Either you are compatible or you aren't...

Bean counters are notoriously poor engineers...

The coordination between the containerized Debian terminal and ChromeOS is really quite good. I pop back and forth all day long effortlessly.

[disclaimer] I was one of the pre-release beta testers for ChromeOS...

The Gray Lady of distros...

I discovered I was using that very gesture on my touchpad to scroll through the article and this thread...
