I've been following John Carmack for 35 years and if I'm honest I have nothing to add. In fact, I'll use this quote later. I'm going to use this tomorrow. Maybe (because it's 730pm and I'm at a pub) use it tonight.

And to get back to the topic, quake three allowed you to rocket or rail your enemies. Endless options for ruling.

Like quake 3 rocket arena? The nostalgia I think of when those words come together, even when forced. What a time.

My personal feeling is life got stretched wider, the poorest got poorer and the richest got richer, and more people are stretched out like gum between. Not just population increases, the homelessness, and the "dregs" (maybe hopelessness) are more. But there's plenty of people riding the stretch the other way with house ownership protecting those who have, and have more.

I've felt lucky, I've always been employed and finding more better work, I already owned by tiny flat. Because of that I'm basically the same but I'm watching everyone around me disappear one way or the other. Financially and politically.

My project car disagrees.

This comment was paypaled by the OP

I personally haven't looked at all but I don't fully understand doh. How can you have https before DNS? To get my first query I kind of need to validate through DNS records certificate authority for that site? So to even establish doh you need unencrypted DNS or blind trust of IP?

Not true, you just become immune to the opposition.

People have different facets. The way I interact with my partner for ten years is different to my close friends I've had for 20, different to my co-workers, different to my family. But my family and friends and co-workers see how I act with my partner.

I mimic people to some extent treating them similarly how they treat me. There are limits though, I'm bounded on that scale by my personal values which mature as I do. So I'm still never going to act outside the bounds of my morality and values, but I'll still treat my partner with unconditional love, and my friends with the best times and silly jokes.

These I don't consider masks, but not everyone sees me the same. They're just facets.

Ok but I need a pretty expensive active adaptor for my tv?

Love it all. MCR, avenged 7 fold, gir from invader Zim, half-life, fall out boy. So nostalgic.

Oh missed home star runner!

Your response is much better than my "a joke retold from the invention of email".

I'll never be funny buy I got a giggle from yours :)
