NEW COMPUTER WHO DIS? Yeah, after 12 years on Sunday I finally got a new desktop system. Old one is still set up, just as a secondary machine that I'm going to clean up and repurposes a bit. Seriously, a machine from 2014 lasting me as long as it did is just badass. That machine is a trooper.

Why do I have the feeling that this is going to be just as bad as 1974's permanent DST?

What people actually want is the end of daylight savings time, they just don’t realize it’s what they want

The fact that they tried this at the beginning of 1974 only for people to realize it was a very bad idea AND the fact that people have clearly forgotten this just shows the lack of brain cells we're working with here.

Just think about it, if there’s a standard time, wouldn’t that imply there’s a non-standard time? Perhaps then you would look into it to see when that is and discover that it’s all the months in the summer when the clocks are ahead by an hour.

Yet so many people cry to keep permanent daylight savings because they don’t even know what it actually is, let alone when it is, as demonstrated by constantly calling this that and the other “standard time”when it’s not

That is to say, for most of the year the clocks are ahead by an hour because this country is fucking stupid and idiots who don’t comprehend time zones want to make that year-round The fact people keep making this mistake shows they don’t even understand the subject.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but, for most of the US anyway, we are not on standard time. We are on daylight savings time. Something happening tonight isn’t 9 PM EST, it’s nine EDT. Yes there is a difference. Standard time is the five months of “fall back” that we have in the winter

And in the end, it went nowhere. For some reason I've not figured out RDP is not succeeding into the NT4 TS machine. It's fine, it was a "bonus" to my at home corporate infrastructure project, but it would have been cool to add in. Still have Server 2000 and 2003 doing their jobs.

Okay, downloading the right iso. I'll mount that in virtualbox for the NT4 Terminal Server, then I'll be able to cleanly install guest additions and can add that system to the RETROCORP network in earnest.

Bloody hell how can my BSD Server be accessed over SMB from the NT4 box, but NOT ACTUALLY INTERACT WITH THE FILES?!?! I mean, these challenges are why I do this stuff, but gad dang.

Those who have followed me for a while know that I have been fighting this very linguistic battle for over a decade now. Namely, the standpoint of the word retro does not in any way shape or form actually mean old. That being said, upon seeing the broader sentiment here I 100% agree.

It’s insecurity. Nobody likes “old”, but that’s too bad. Wii games are old. PS3 games are old. X360? Old. PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, Dreamcast? Yup… old. Same w/PlayStation, N64, 3DO, SNES, Genesis, TG-16, NES, Master System, Atari VCS. All old. No longer supported. Products of years long since passed.

They don't want to use the word because "old" has negative connotations. I find it bizarre, honestly.

Wii games are neither “retro” nor “classic”. They’re OLD. People need to stop trying to avoid the word. Things get old. Some things get old gracefully, others not so much. It doesn’t have the same ring to it as buzzwords like “retro” or “classic”, but it’s a far more apt/more objective descriptor.

Reading The Declaration Of Independence For America’s 250th
This afternoon, at 12:00 PM Central I started a live stream where I did one simple thing: Read the enteritis of the Declaration of Independence. For the nations 250th birthday it only felt fitting, and it wasn't a long read, so it would be a pretty straightforward stream, and it was, until I finished. That's when I realized the emotion I felt, and the deeper realization on how many elements of the tyranny our founding fathers felt 250 years ago are mirrored today, and what followed was raw emotion; me trying to process the love-hate relationship I have with my homeland and processing my continued hope for a better future.

We long ago entered the “all digital” future gamers dread - the second games began to require patches to even RUN your precious “physical copy” became nothing but an extra step in playing a game that already relied on a downloaded file to even operate.

Juneteenth marks the celebration of America's second independence day. Like the people in this photo—Texans celebrating Juneteenth in 1900—we know that progress hasn't made our union perfect. But we can recommit to reaching toward that more perfect union together. Happy Juneteenth.
