I always cringe a bit when I hear someone keeps their computer on for more than a few days.

In my case it just takes too long to boot up (relatively recent problem), and I don't like the inconvenience of having to open everything up again. If I only used my computer for a few hours a day or something then it wouldn't be a big deal, but I'm on it almost constantly, so having to wait on it seems intolerable. If I can improve the boot up time significantly after I give it its midlife overhaul then I might give it more downtime.

How would you feel if you were kept awake and forced to perform binary arithmetic for two weeks?

I do put it in sleep mode wink

I cringe a bit when I reboot my computers especially if I do it remotely, because I rarely reboot more than once a year or two and who knows what could have been messed up in the boot cycle since the last time.

I think it's time for an extremely relevant and classic gif:

HarbingerDawn,



I've got an idea to build a cool vehicle from scratch and then record it on video. It was very successful project, I think, and I've never saw something like that before.

In 0.18, I used it to deliver a heavy mining platform for Kethane Mod on the Mun, and it was successful.

I know that people use KFC to make racist jokes about black people, but i can't see anything racist in the post HarbingerDawn made.

Antza2, Lenin is important and famous historical figure in my country and connecting it to some private company with questionable reputation isn't very funny from my point of view. I already saw a parody on Trotsky, with the same idea, and it seems to be a bit more appropriate.

That doesn't mean that it's racist.

A quote from Wikipedia:
"Racism involves the belief in racial differences, which acts as a justification for non-equal treatment (which some regard as "discrimination") of members of that race."

You know what kind of differences are those, so you can probably get the idea. It's not exactly racist, so I added "it seems to" for consistency.
