I sure hope somebody got fired for this blunder!

Makes me think of Anathem

Since there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, the most ethical thing you can do is consume as little as possible. At least that's what I try to do.

But stagnating wages combined inflation make that a necessity for many instead of a choice, I guess.

Miraculously it kinda worked for the fall.

I'm on my second battery, this has been my main personal computer (gaming aside) for over ten years. Maybe it deserves one more extension on life... I'll think about it!

Oh yeah, mine lasts 30 minutes max, but for a home laptop that's fine.

Eh, mine runs fine. Only thing that bothers me is the crap display.

I mean, that's pretty scientific training right there

I probably won't going forward, if I can avoid it. But there's always that timer of hope that this time, it's different... and it's not like WestJet is much better. So I try to avoid flying altogether now, for other reasons as well.

Air Canada has changed all my flights in the last three years. They are especially fond of selling me a direct flight, then canceling that one and moving me to a connecting flight with worse departure and longer travel times.

In the same vein, Star Crash is one of my terrible favorites. With David Hasselhoff and a guy that stole the hair from David Hasselhoff.

Hmm, I'm in Canada, but that could be worked out. I guess the other question is if it's compatible with the networks here?
