08:10 schestowitz; >> It would still be feasible to meet "IRL" one day.
08:10 schestowitz; > You'll have to be quick, I've been operated on twice and have various ailments caused by the covid vaccine. The NHS sends someone round once a week to check-up I'm not dead yet. At least that's what he said outside the front-door, not realizing I could hear him through the intercom.

08:10 schestowitz; >>> As I mentioned and over time, legitimate online dissent is being crushed. The last free forum is Xitter and the powers that be seem desperate to shut it down.

08:10 schestowitz; > According to Wikipedia, Microsoft Windows was not designed with the Internet in mind. This is of course BS. I posted a doc by Nathan Myhrvold describing Windows NT as*the* ecommerce platform. This was of course removed. I believe there's a copy on techrights.
