  • Holy crap. Well that explains a lot with that memory. Dad used to read a ton of sci-fi. I was actually just commenting about Larry Niven and my dad in another post, The one that was asking why nobody has redone Dante’s inferno in the 20th century.

    e: I think he either must have read me the story or paraphrased it to me when I was younger, I’m going to have to bring this up next time we’re having a meal together lol. I read the entire short story you posted (very short! I read it while eating a carrot for breakfast!), and so much of it brings back more memories :) what a fun concept it explores, thank you so much for sharing the link, this made my morning!



  • Fair enough, I’m still trying to figure out most of them myself. It’s just the first first distro I used that my son set up for me. It’s a gaming oriented Fedora with KDE and comes preloaded with stuff for playing games. It did seem like it was working pretty well for a lot of stuff, but I went against my son’s advice and started trying to learn the terminal and borked some stuff, so he switched me to vanilla Fedora and now I’m missing stuff I need to run some of the games. I don’t know if anybody else has used it much it that has had any experience. Like I said I’m only on my second distro myself.

    My golden retriever Biscuit, from when I was like 8 or 9. The dude got loose as we were trying to get him in the car with our flat coated retriever Raven, to take to the kennel before vacation, and ran in the road and got hit :'( always and forever my favorite Biscuit, and always the best boy…












  • Well to be fair her music drew me in first. But then I noticed another two or three artists I was listening to that were also lead singers and played bass, and I said hrm. Maybe it’s just because I was a failed bassist as a teenager, I don’t know. Anyway, she’s too young for me anyhow, and I’ve got cats to cuddle with and will I listen to my my girl bass music with them lol. So it works for me :p besides, I’d probably have a panic attack, even trying to work up the courage to say hi if I met one of these bass playing celebritiy ladies in real life. Not to mention a lot of them like girls I think </3 :'/ and I’m not sure all the exact technicalities of my gender in relation to their tastes, but I do know I was at least born the wrong hardware lol
