in fact, research has found that there is an *almost* (but not quite) dollar for dollar increase in tuition for each additional available dollar of student loan and pell grant. Iirc, one was 95%, and the other 90%, but it's been a while.

the idea of a remote control operating system *anything* on my pants, let alone the zipper, is, well . . .

just another reason to stick to button fly jeans!

this.

I only reluctantly gave up atavist for the weaker search but broader index of google.

But I've tried, off and on for several years, to use non-google search engines.

I think that that 80% is about right on usable results from bing/ddg -- but it's unusual day that I don't need to go to google at least once. For some searches, I don't even bother and go straight there.

what finally got me to change my default away from google was the effort of typing "-video:" (which also excludes ai) on every search.

in related news, still waiting for an orbital strike on the YouTube servers, but in vain. Really, how can you make a vive minute "video" on the firing order of an eight cylinder engine (the numerals 1-8 in some order or another) ?

I'm not clear on how that distinguishes them from progressives democrats, and third parties.

>Apparently this rouge editor has made 60K edits.

How does that compare to foundation and mascara editors?

Probably *way* behind eyeshadow editors, but ahead of lipstick editors.

But I'm just guessing.

the most relevant add for such a browser would be littlesnitch and the like . . .

*cough* cuecat! *cough*

err, is there a situation where calling you "serviscope" while speaking *wouldn't* be weird?

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

Whoever would have thought that a Bezos linked space operation wouldn't thrive and exceed expectations!

What next, gambling in the back room?

I think Sears beat them to rebadging mastery by a matter of decades . . .

I still have my "Macintosh Classic" from the 90s, bought for secretaries at my office (I had a long-lead SE/30).

It, too, can boot entirely from ROM, into the then current Mac system (6.0.something). The catch was that system extensions had to be in the system folder at boot time, so you only had a limited system available.

They never did this again, although there is a limited function in ROM on many OS/X machines.

Damnit, where's my stake?

[*pound*][*pound*][*pound*]

now *stay* dead this time!

[*grumble*]

>This already existed, it was called Google Wave.

OK, let's add "not inherently tied to a data merchant" . . .

Protection from those coyote gang-bangers, of course!

or ws it to take territory from the coyotes? I forget.
