  • My first job was building computers with old parts. A guy needed MS Word for work but didn’t want to buy a new computer or upgrade his 386SX (25Mhz iirc). It had like 20MB of disk and I don’t recall the RAM. So he asked me if I could try. So I did. I managed to install DOS, Windows 3.1 and MS Word. I don’t remember how long it took to boot, but I remember that it would take 6 seconds for a pressed letter to appear on the screen.

    Man, I saw a guy once getting stood up and I was really sad. The guy was seated, waited, asked for something small, waited more, changed tables to free space for a larger group and then paid and left. I mean, everyone here probably went on dates that got nowhere. Finish the meal, shake hands and leave separate. It’s part of life. But the golden rule is never go into the restaurant alone. Always meet outside l, somewhere else.
