Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences. Remember that one? LO

The article's about health care, not healthcare the neologism.

It’s aged great, you can simply use a personal computer instead of a cassette tape. Or even a digital recorder. Or gasp a cassette recorder!

Boss drop the hammer and require you back in the office? That sucks big time.

I'm sure the job market yearns to hire yet another Android "engineer" and one who shit talks their boss on Twitter to boot. The bratty stepchild will be fine.

Those scooters were destined to be e-waste the minute the corporation was formed.

Is there research to support your thesis?

Sir, he was shit talking the app (which everybody agrees blows ass) and the dev took to Twitter to whining instead of using the internal platform. Next time your boss admits your product is trash, try shit talking a rebuttal to him on Twitter, I dare you. Elon is his father.

OpenBSD has the only correct implementation of wifi among all Unix and Unix-like operating systems. It's really the best thing going.

But is it worth the enormous additional cost over something like SuperMicro? You could pay 1/3rd and give the rest of the money to Earth First.

I hire people to annoy celebrities I don’t care for on Twitter. It got to be too much of a chore to torture such a long and ever growing list of people by myself.

It’s an older device but you raise a great point. I would never buy another Apple product. Is that good enough for you?

Thank you so much. Damn that thing is irritating.

I was smart enough to buy a computer that OpenBSD is compatible with, so I don't have any of these issue of which you speak. I use a T420. I have more powerful computers at my disposal, a Talos workstation and a high core count recent AMD. But this is the computer I use 90% of the time, at least as an interface to the others.

OpenBSD gets better all the time, but not larger. It's what made me switch.
