Installed OpenBSD on another old laptop (anyone remember Compaq?) --- and again, it now doubles as an air fryer. Why does OpenBSD push the CPU fan to 100% even under no load? Thinking I'll run something to see if the machine launches itself across the yard like an uncontrolled drone.

Me: I never sent a card.
She: Your friend did.

Guy at gym: Working out upsets my stomach lately.
Me: Maybe it's the nightly tequila?
Gym guy: Hmm I guess that's possible.

Me: She wants us to work.
She: I hardly believe that.

She: You have to decide.
Me: Seems like I have.
She: Then what is it?
Me: You know.
@Averly Write 'em down! Make a book out of it! I'm telling you, it's very therapeutic. 👍
@Averly Alright, now you're freaking me out. I grew up in Green River, Wyoming. From what town exactly did this gunslinger hail? Must have been somewhere along I-80? 😆
@Averly Hey my neck of the woods! You must have been there during it's-not-raining season. 😀
Landed a contract with local university to update some 16-bit VC6 code ... 16-bit VC6 code ... wait, did I just agree to this?
