I got back online after a six-year hiatus, the same day I first posted here. Thus, I entitled it "Hello, world!", a common phrase a brand-new programmer uses as output for a successful first program.
Six years ago, I lost my job. My buddy let me mooch off his connection. Between looking unsuccessfully for a job, I posted on Linux forums. Linux was the only thing I could afford to get into. Isn't it sad that nothing, even virtually, can be done free? Linux worked for me for awhile, but then my buddy lost his connection, too - and it took me 6 years to get back to where I was then.
Now, even still, I can only afford to mess with lawn mowers. Everything costs moolah. You can't really even talk about something without the cash to buy the thing you wanna talk about. I love mowers, but if I don't own one, my opinions are just that - opinions and perhaps memories.
These 12 hour days are getting to me.......:laughing:
