Reply @Anonymous! I very much enjoy the drone of a coffee machine or a microwave. Fun to harmonize with or whistle along too. It's like a bagpipe that warms food. I hate shrill (smol) barking dogs.

Reply @Matthew C! We're just getting cable back. As Gaben said, it's not a piracy problem, it's a platform problem. I don't even bother to pirate games any more.

Thanks, Larry W! Due to prices, for my Steam Machine: AM4 Ryzen 9 5900X, 7900 XT, 32 GB DDR4 RAM in a Fractal Terra w/SteamOS. A friend said AM4 and DDR4 would be useless in a few years, and I wasted money.
