I've been using windows all my life and I've never seen anyone not say this about "their" version. Except ME. Fuck ME.
But seriously my dad refused to switch to Windows from DOS for the longest time. 95? The best. 98? Can't upgrade. Xp or die. 7 forever. 10 or bust. In 10 years it will be people clamoring over 11 and refusing to switch.
Not the person you responded to but you can turn any shoe into this. Lock laces. Instead of tying my shoes daily you can slip them on and off and they always stay exactly perfect. I adjust them mayyybe once a year. They're like 10 bucks and make my shoes feel amazing.
This is what I do. I got a flushing ear thing specifically with the nozzle for ears on Amazon for like 10 bucks and it's a game changer. I gotta do it yearly.
My wife and I watched the first episode so far and we did get a few chuckles from banter between Nicholas Lyndhurst and Kelsey Grammer. It honestly wasn't as horrible as we were thinking it might be. Especially once the Freddy and Frasier heart to heart happened. Kitchen scenes of someone walking in and out to comedic timing was a great call back, and "I'm no stranger to an underperforming dinner party".
We're still on the fence because the lack of David Hyde Pierce is felt sorely. Niles' son is not doing any favors for the show. The quick gloss over of Charlotte was annoying. The forced "how do we get Frasier to live with Freddy" plot was missing a lot. The original set-up to Niles pawning off his dad to Frasier before he met Daphne was amazing, this was just kinda feeling tacked on.
Most of our favorite Frasier moments come from the "MASH effect" or the quick switch from hilarious to somber stories. The digging in to the psyche of why a character is acting the way they are and analyzing it so everyone can come out better at the end is what we loved. I hope they keep that aspect going. There is a glimpse of that with the Freddy story I just hope it doesn't end there.
This is the best measure (preventative). Carb heavy lunches will wreck you. Save the carbs for after work, fall asleep on the couch watching TV, then wake up with a sore back.
In my experience, everything else on thinkpads can and will be abused by my users but the trackpoint is one thing I've never had to replace. Most of my new hires don't even know what it does.
I'm not confused why they're doing it, I'm confused why they think b&m stores are the way to go. I'm sure they can subsidize any potential losses from other money making areas but why not just sell the merch online? Storefront overhead ain't cheap.
Oh it's fantastic, just wanted to throw in at least one reputable film
Take your pick, some of these are actual movies, some pretend to be (looking at you Suburban Sasquatch). You'll have some laughs regardless of the pick.
These are great points I didn't think of until now. Frasier's best episodes revolved around the strong cast. Coming in 20 years later with a 99% new cast seems destined to not hold up well. The Crane Boy just doesn't have the same ring to it.
I get that time marches on, but at a certain point, will the story actually reflect that, or will the disappearance of everyone simply be waved away with a line of dialogue? You're right, the writers have an uphill battle on their hands.
In regards to this it worries me they're trying the live audience sitcom format again. The last one I tried was that 90s show and I realized either live audience sitcoms should stay a thing of the 20th century, or I guess I aged out of it. On the other hand watching a non live audience format of Frasier might be too weird in a different way.
Back in Frasier's day it made sense to spinoff a sitcom with another similarly filmed sitcom, I'm just feeling it's a thing of the past and won't hold up to modern comedy.
I wish this didn't live in my head rent free
Windows 2000 was for enterprise, not home use. 8 was for mobile & touchscreens (at first) and that failed miserably yes, hence their 8.1 release. Just like ME they tried hopping on a bandwagon and it flopped. Two major flops in 23 years is not a bad record. But my point remains that when whatever new OS comes out, people look back at the last one with rose tinted glasses.
