I hate comic books. I love the stories, the art. But if I ever found a finished narrative arc I would be shocked. The business ruins it.
Every time I get into a story they either cancel the series mid story or reboot the umiverse mid story for unrelated reasons to start a new arc they wont finish. F that industry.

#RetroComputing #Macintosh question about a classic mac (quadra? I think), i have a user who has their thesis stranded on a mid 90s mac like a quadra with what seems to be an ethernet port and likely scsi drive. Whats the best recovery plan? Ftp server software to move files off or some kind of scsi connector to clone the whole drive? Taking advice!, but i'll have to get more exact details and model numbers.

@npub1683…f0qg i just watched a test on a video of phone superspeed usb charging and they noticed an ~1-10% battery capavity drop in a relatively short time. So if that translates to car tech still more evidence for your charge car normally drumbeat.

#[0] i dont accept that giving him a free pass on legitimate prosecutions is in anyones interest. It doesnt help me to demand politicians muzzle prosecutors who think they can prove a crime in court because it makes his fans believe his victim narrative.

#[0] democratic voters like me have no responsibility to ask our politicians to appease a republican base, why dont we demand better of opponents, republicans are in dereliction of their duty to law and honor and the constitution in giving that man one ounce of support. The moral bankruptcy of republicans is not our job to fix.
