I thought Dave was retired... ? (That's Dave a.k.a., "Bitflipper" for those of you are a bit slower on the uptake.)

Um, so what are Linux and Windows both based on again? ?

I used Linux servers to run game servers in the late 90's (Quake, Half-Life and Counter Strike). I had the second-most popular servers on the West Coast at one time (and was rated in the top-25 for Quake 1 players on a database of over 340,000 players - thank you low ping! ?). Other than that, I've been pretty much strictly DOS/Windows for decades. That said, .NET Core is now becoming stronger where the code you create can run on Windows, Apple or Linux so I'm guessing more stuff will be coming out soon.

Yep! Here's the back in both horizontal and vertical mode (you'll see that I kept the stand on for stability which flips to the side and I rest the bottom edge on a wrist rest in vertical mode). Hi-res back horizontal Hi-res back vertical I should have taken a picture of the front (maybe tomorrow?). Heck, an entire Emperor penguin will fit on the screen in life size! (And most of Kenny's dream girl Meredith - LOL!)

Who is only 14" taller!

Because I have a 40" 4k monitor that's set up to rotate into portrait mode? (I will try Reason for just that, well, reason!?)

I wonder if Meredith owns a pizza parlor with beer...

What I thought was funniest was him missing the fact that calling a key "A" was completely arbitrary too. None of the human organs resonate at 432 Hz. either (the heart, for example, is at 289 Hz., give or take a radiation period of a cesium atom). ?

Answer: Yep.

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. They both got down and played around and now they have a daughter?

Maybe this goes back to your confusion between penguins and midget nuns? ?

I've read a lot of interesting and borderline woo-woo reasons (hey, when your PhD work is in hypnotherapy, you run into tons of woo-woo!). Some were based on science like how plants (or animals) react to the same music played based on A equal to 432 vs. 440 and others referring to how everything is in vibration and, therefore, some things are more harmonic using 432 for A. That said, any equal temperament scale is going to have issues with some parts. I do find the whole area interesting.

He does look happy though, doesn't he? ?

Being able to play like David would be worth a lot more...

I would suggest getting stereo headphones this time. ? (Ok, sorry... that wasn't helpful... ?)

Wait... It's Friday??? So why do I still have several days worth of work left to finish this week??! ?

Exactly! Everyone knows you actually need 128GB of RAM and a RAID full of SSD's! ?

Loved that! ?

I've got an assistant for that. ?

But I thought you Brits liked it bitter Andy! ?

Mike, the verdict is in. We find you guilty of surviving and sentence you to 20 more years of life! (With the possibility of an extension if you exhibit good behavior.) ?

Kenny Wilson: Guitarist, Meme Creator ??

Always good to be nice to those types! ?

Wait... There's a solved Rubik's Cube there? Ok, that might make up for the accordion... I used to be able to solve a cube in (according to the Guiness Book of World Records attempt I did) an average of 39 seconds over five scrambled cubes (not even close to the fastest at the event though... ?). I even used to do alternate solutions like the one below: Front side and back. You can't spin a solved cube to get these, you actually need to solve the cube this way! ?
