How appropriate. You've aged like a cow.

Similar to that, just because someone works in IT, doesn't mean they can fix your computer problem. I've worked with a lot of developers who were great coders but couldn't resolve networking or random OS issues.

Not exactly secret, but not very well-known. In many states your credit score can be used as a factor in determining the cost of auto insurance for you. Lower credit scores can equal higher premiums.

I think I was the same with MS DOS on my XT, because I remember buying an upgrade for a version 4.x at one point.

I've found it helpful at work for things like preparing agendas for meetings, or creating an outline of a presentation or document I need to write.

I've also found it helpful when I'm trying to Google something where I need to be pretty specific and then I can't find exactly what I mean by searching.

Here's something totally bizarre that you might it might not care about.

The other day I brought up Metroid on the Nintendo Switch NES app (the one that lets you play some NES games with an online subscription.) After playing for a bit, I wanted to show him the Justin Bailey code. But I couldn't remember it exactly at first. So I tried it in various cases, and when I enter the code with all lowercase letters, it crashed the game.

No idea if it'll do that for everyone, or if it did that on the actual NES, but I tried it a few times and it crashed everything.

For reference, I entered in the code like this:

justin bailey
------ ------

But the actual code is:

JUSTIN BAILEY
------ ------

And I only knew the Wyld Stallyns version!

I thought your post said NASA at first, and I was really skeptical.

It's been twisted so far from its original intention.

Just tell them, "Bubatz ist jetzt legal!"

I received the offer on my 16 year old Reddit account, but not on another account I have that's more like 12. Not sure if they went by account age or activity or what.

I did not try to get in on the IPO (or pre-IPO.)
