      E.T. cereal was peanut butter and chocolate flavored? I'll bet that was great as a kid! I'm surprised they didn't bring it back in some other form.

  2. After 16 years, I'm switching from Mac back to Linux. Apple just isn't interested in earning my money any more, and hasn't been for years.

      My wife convinced me to get a 4K screen to go with the Linux box I built. She was right, it's wonderful having the sharpness and clarity of 4K.

      Thanks JD, I've been in the market for a cheap laptop with a nice screen. Toshiba Chromebook 2 looks like it will fit the bill if the screen is as nice as everyone says. Just snagged one on eBay for $100.

      ^Sounds Awesome! My all in one computer is a Toshiba, and in general I like their stuff :) Also have a Home Theater receiver and used to have an HD Flat screen CRT that was Toshiba.

      I still remember in the 70's when my brother got a CB, and was telling me he heard a trucker on there singing, "Ya picked a fine time to leave me Loose Wheel"

  7. Too much good TV, not enough time. I haven't watched a single episode of Stranger Things s2 nor of The Punisher, even though I've been looking forward to both.

      I thought STs2 was good, maybe a bit better than the first season. I haven't had time to watch any of The Punisher yet.

      First episode of Punisher didn't grab me. ST2 on the other hand, I binged over a 3 day period.

  8. Amazon says it's "Black Friday Deals Week." Is that a thing, or are they just trying to make it one?

      Let's just cut the bullshit and make it Christmas shopping year round. Holidays are all about spending money, right.

      Thanksgiving is supposed to be a time when you are thankful for what you have. It's right after Thanksgiving when you can rush out and try to get what you don't have.

      Here in the UK, the Black Friday thing seems rather pointless to me. I managed to get my tablet for much cheaper than the Black Friday price just 2 weeks later from the same retailer.

      I don't get IT either...I mean they sit on their ass all day, then when you call because you're locked out, they claim it was YOU who changed your password when ya didn't, they get nasty for no reason until you yell just Reset my F-ing Password and shut up OK?

      I think we can all agree that New York has the best New York style pizza in all of New York. Personally I'm rather partial to Neapolitan pizza.
