It was called spanning and was usually done with a third party utility like xcopy or pkzip, but I am pretty sure MS backup did it as well. I don’t think you could do it with DOS copy command through v6.22.

Oh my DM really leaned into that one. Had us searching for a golden brassiere as part of a ritual we needed to perform. We ended up picking up a rumour that the captain of the guard wears one, so on to the seduction attempt to go find out what she’s into and where she hangs out. Play through the whole bit, get the brassiere and then ask what we do next. Well, now we need to burn incense in the brassiere. Now everyone just looks at eachother completely confused. Then the guy sitting next to the DM suddenly perks up and asks to see the module we’re running for a sec. Tells the table it says brazier. Confusion dispelled and everyone laughing for days.

You can’t say Macross any more than you can say Star Trek. Way too many series, and people even conflate Robotech and SDF Macross, which both had great intro themes.

I guess if you have one set, but there are usually two that come with most cars. Probably whoever grabbed theit preferred car key first means the other grabs their key for the second car?

Don’t even need to hit it sometimes - the profile often goes with the key fob too.

Where you finding 4090s for a grand? Twice that and then some here.

Does your PC have an Intel or AMD CPU? Congrats, you don’t have to worry about Recall. At least for now, it only works on Copilot+ PCs with ARM processors.

Getting value for time is productivity. Up to you if value is in money or enjoyment. Your “logic” seems extreme. I’d have to have some irrational hatred for shopping before I’d spend even more on groceries to get someone else to do it. Similarly, I’d have to have some pretty strong feelings to love it so much I’d take a minimum wage job to do it in my spare time. I think the average person is going to fall firmly in the “if shopping for an extra 30 minutes saves me 20 dollars, I’m doing it” camp.

Dude, we all waste more than enough time on any given day that we don’t need to worry about the value of losing a half hour to save tens of dollars on our grocery bill. I can’t imagine anyone using a site like this one is particularly worried about lost productivity during their free time.

Seriously. Sale items are often several dollars cheaper per item. It is well worth the time and gas driving to several stores unless they are very far apart, then just roll that into another trip. Some big “what could it cost, 10 dollars?” vibes off that comment.

I dunno man. I quickly learned to avoid Chrome at all costs because of the performance. Even when it was supposedly “good”, it was always a massive memory hog. Never had that issue with Firefox, and if it ended up taking a few seconds longer here and there to load a page, it would pale in comparison to the overall hit to the system from Chrome. Like being penny wise and pound foolish.

She’d probably leave a golden diaper at a GOP convention with a label saying “For the most worthy”.

Bolos?

Ok, where the hell did I leave it this time?

Oh that sounds right up my alley. Going to have to check the old man’s bookshelf. Good chance he has it.

Not going to state the obvious with Ricardo Montalban, but I always enjoyed William Campbell’s Trelaine. And yeah, Windom was solid as Decker. Great episode all around.

True, but I am talking about CD-Rs, as per above. I assume you know what those are.

All of my old PS-1 games on 25-30 year old CD-Rs work fine. You’d be lucky to get 10 years from an HDD. I start losing disks in my RAID 5 arrays at about 6 years, and if you are unlucky it could be under 3. I have a 10 year old USB stick (oldest one I haven’t lost yet) that has started failing. So CDs are looking pretty good long term. Would just be a pain to back them all up again, but you might only really have to repeat that once for a lifetime of use.

Close enough?

And the thing your aunt gave you that you don’t know what it is.
