Oh no. Sending hugs and prayers.

@BorrisInABox @ner Wow that sounds like a horrible experience. Both the three minutes to boost and the ban on non-English posts.

@ner Yeah, gotta say I'm really not a fan of this tiny on-board SSD with more than one external drive connected and reprise of the old Windows ram swopping thing that we're all furiously telling ourselves is the best thing since sliced bread.

Wait we're supposed to appreciate our laptops?

@CoryJackson Call support, because I believe there's a known issue with 2025 which would effect your shared components. In the meantime, press jawskey+3 on the number row to pass key through, then press the keystroke to open conversation.

@JamminJerry It's the Sonic brand of frozen tater tots. Kind of like how you can buy those TGI Fridays sides that are supposed to be just as good as the real thing at the now soon-to-be-non-existing TGI Fridays restaurants.

It's 100% real. Specifically, The Onion won the bidding, and the families contributed money they would have received as part of their win to make it happen.

Not everything is bad.

Oh man I hope you get to stay inside for as much of it as possible.

@JamminJerry Yeah. Floods == no bueno. Not sure which is worse though. Fire or flood.

@JamminJerry Yeah see that's the thing. People who live in the south really aren't equipped, in all kinds of ways, to deal with a ton of snow or very cold temperatures. But it's the reverse up here. Last summer was absolutely brutal for us.

@gocu54 For 100 years.

@gocu54 Yeah that was a pretty interesting birthday present. And that one wasn't even that bad.

@JamminJerry Yeah I used to live in the south. Jerry did for a bit too. Georgia gets pretty bad, Florida is the absolute worst.

@JamminJerry Not really. Wait till it gets below 10 (-12.22C). And I'm in PA and Jerry's in Michigan. Places like Minesota and Wisconsin and Nebraska and Colorado get much colder than 10.

Yep.

Yep.
