@Recta_Pete I consider that an absolute win. Everyone likes boobs and butts.
@realtime I've used nails like these, they drive in no harder than any other nail of the same size.
@ClarusPlusPlus Hope everything turns out in the best possible way. Being scared sucks.
@jay Their 8088 laptop is pretty neat too.
Options for ISA Expansion and an OPL sound card.

@linuxfiend Next time you're looking for a cheap VPS, check out RackNerd. Especially on black Friday. You can get yearly plans for as low as $20. I've been using them for years now.

@DigitalStefan "5D Optical" has been in development for quite some time. First demonstrated in 2013, and a new demonstration last year, I think we should see some form of viable commercial product within a decade or so.
Basically burning data into crystals. Barring physical damage, the theoretical lifespan would be "eternity".
I'm with you on the M-disc claims. I'm pressing X to Doubt.
