I was today years old when I realized that the biggest advantage of redundant power supplies isn't "in case one of them fails," but rather "in case you need to move to a different plug without shutting down."

They will let you do this. But it's the principle of the matter. I don't want to "be subscribed" and I don't want to have to "unsubscribe" They are making me do extra steps and remember extra things in the hope that I will forget, or change my mind and I find it manipulative and annoying.

They are twisting my arm and I just don't want to go along with it.

I can remember the exact date that I saw "Fletch Lives" in the theater, because at one point Fletch pulls out a calendar and points at "today" and yes, it was indeed that day.

Your attention please:

Ice cream remains good.

"The sheer immorality of any one person possessing so much wealth is obvious to most people with basic amounts of empathy. But when it comes to Musk and the other 14 people worth more than $100bn, the morality of it is almost a secondary concern. Their individual wealth is a society-distorting threat to democracy in the same way that economics has always recognised monopolies to be dangerous to a functional market."

Elon Musk is becoming a one-man rogue state – it’s time we reined him in

I hope my employer doesn't sack me for revealing that the string "Sparky McSparkleface" appears in our git repo.
No, YOU'RE dirty and sweet.
