Nice! I hope your son enjoys his gifts! Happy Holidays!

RAM has always been an issue because as newer programs and hardware comes out, it demands more RAM.

Staying in because where I live we have had a spike in Covid Omicron so officials are asking people to avoid congregating in groups.

One hundred!

The first "Die Hard" took place during the Holidays so yeah I guess you could call it a Christmas movie.

I am not a ham person. It'll be turkey for me.

Personally, I prefer Samsung to Apple.

Both because Covid wrecked everything and our government officials mishandled the whole thing grossly.

Well that's true but like with everything else, music has been turned into an instant gratification medium for pure profit. People actually taking the time to learn their craft and/or an instrument are a dying breed and with music no longer being taught in school as it once was back in the day, it's hard for people to gain access to musical instruments.

Just immediate family for me.

Well the thing is whether anyone agrees or not there have been far too many Black males hurt or killed at the hands of LEOs in what the police call "a routine traffic stop" and there's never no clear indication of what the person did other than the usual lip service that the person was or had a criminal record or they had drugs or they had what appeared to be a weapon only to find out later they were holding a cell phone.

Hmmm well maybe some people are starting to get it now.

Well unfortunately, we still have people who aren't taking this virus seriously and as a result people are walking around without masks thinking it's OK and it's not.

As we have seen this week, some sporting events have been cancelled and they're debating if they should go to back to playing games without fans in the stands so we all need take this thing seriously.

Uh Ok, who is paying for this because I am sure the companies making these tests ain't doing it for free.

The Republican Party isn't a party. It's a hate group in my opinion whether anyone agrees or not.

Hmm well in my opinion when you make disparaging remarks about other people based on their race, gender, sexual orientation etc, you shouldn't have a position of power because ultimately that mindset you have will affect your judgement.

I guess this lady feels stupid now and she blaming it on some medicine she had taken and I say the meds didn't make you say anything that you probably hadn't said before.

Teachers having sex with teenage students isn't shocking anymore much the way mass shootings aren't shocking because it happens all the time these days.

Not sure but there are games that were far better on PC than they were on consoles.

Team Fortress

Portal

Minecraft

Grand Theft Auto

The Witcher 3

Skyrim

Counter Strike

Battlefield

Dragon Age

I don't plan to this year.

I do but not in malls because there's so much going on these days with people doing smash and grabs so I do my shopping online.

I don't agree with that! Keep in mind Nintendo had been a card company up until the NES came along and they single-handedly revived console gaming and gaming in general in the mid 1980s with the NES.

Without Nintendo and Sega, there would have never been a Microsoft or a Sony in regards to gaming and had the owners of Atari not been the greed monsters they were, who knows maybe Atari would have been at the top of the heap.

I haven't watched porn for over 10 years now. I dated a woman during that time and her thing was watching porn. I got burned out on it because you can only see so much porn then it all starts looking the same.

I like Nathan's!

Home Alone (1990)

Elf

Tim Burtons the Nightmare Before Christmas

Gremlins

White Christmas

Edward Scissorhands

Die Hard (1988)

Bad Santa

Miracle On 34Th Street

Tangerine

It's A Wonderful Life

Yes because as great as phone camera's are, there's just no substitution for a stand alone high end digital camera.

Apple doesn't make anything that I want. I've never owned an Apple computer, an Ipod, Ipad or an Iphone. I'm just not impressed with Apple's stolen products and I know some will disagree but that's how I see it.

RAM has always been an issue in PCs because seemingly you can never have enough ram and as programs become more intense, that puts pressure on PC components to handle the load.

Hmm so the bosses told the employees if they left before the tornado, they would in all likelihood be fired. And people wonder why hourly paid employees need unions.

Why would any employer risk the safety and lives of employees just to make an extra buck or two but that greed is now gripping the country and the employers now wield total control because a certain B movie actor who became president kept telling people unions were bad even though he himself belonged to the actors union so for him it was good but everybody else it was bad.

Unions good or bad are needed more now than ever because the upper echelon only care about stuffing their pockets and doing it their way even if it means putting people's safety at risk because none of those bosses at that factory were present when that tornado hit.

In my opinion, when you meet someone you like and you decide to date, everything else is out the window in my opinion. I've dated women who I thought when I met them that we wouldn't hit it off and we did and the women I've dated who I thought I was compatible with I wasn't so you never know but I never set boundaries when it comes to dating.

The silent crisis period of mental illness in this country has gone unnoticed and still does. The question I have is what is causing so much anguish and mental anxiety among Americans. There are people who live in war torn countries who do not suffer the mental illnesses we see in America so what is causing it.

They murdered their parents so no they shouldn't be freed. There are rare times when someone takes a life in a self defense situation but to murder people in cold blood in my opinion warrants no less than life in prison.

I never thought of it as a Christmas movie but I do remember the very first one had a holiday setting.

I'd get them a gift card!

No surprise here because this is the road that America has been on for over 4 decades now and that is the wealthiest among us set policy and call the shots and our so called politicians at every level are mere puppets told what to do and people like Bezos have bended and shifted the rules to their favor to a point that employees don't matter anymore even if an employee dies on a job the people at the top brush it off and try to wiggle their way out of compensating the survivors of deceased employees and many people have and are dying on jobs in work related accidents simply because employers do not follow job safety protocols any longer because now it's about how much money can I make and how little can get away with paying people to work for me.

That mentality comes straight from slave plantations.

Yeah she should be ashamed. Im glad she at least seems remorseful once she realized what that she was so clearly in the wrong.

Yeah but wow I mean to accuse someone of something like that is wrong. That guy could have went to jail for nothing.

Geez did she not check her purse before accusing someone of stealing her phone.

I've misplaced my phone numerous times but I never accused someone of stealing it.

Hmm well there is a high price for low cost and sadly at least one person has lost their life/

Thoughts and prayers of the families of those involved.

Needless to say Lays is my favorite brand of chips but I have tried others most notable Utz and Uncle Rays.

Personally, I'm against abortion but I also think it's a persons personal choice when it comes to health matters and as such, each person for whatever reason should decide their own health situation.

I usually give to charities I trust who do the right thing.
