I have to say, this was an accurate and non-offensive assent of my spending habits.

Of course, that was just what they felt comfortable sharing, I know I've made purchases through Amazon they could have called me out on.

    The first time I got serious about Linux would have been 2003, taking a few classes at the community college and joining a computer club w a focus on Linux.

    Was my primary OS from 2003 to about 2013, when work drove me back to Windows. I basically haven't had a personal PC since then, switched to gaming on consoles.

    Still use it for servers, and plan on switching my new home PC over in the coming weeks.

    I've been playing Rocksmith bass for about six years, and recently got the four sting version of that Ibanez.

    Never thought I'd spend that much on what is essentially a PlayStation controller, but I absolutely love it.

    Lived in and around Chicago most of my life, and this is also my answer.

    Having a winter hobby to look forward to takes the edge of the cold weather for me.

    You mentioned the lake, but another benefit often overlooked is access to one of the largest bodies of fresh water on the planet.

    Been watching since the first season and just love it. Would have liked to attend, maybe if they do it again.

    Match two was fantastic, and the whole season was good.

    Kinda wish they had more base game for round three but still was fun.

    Always makes me want to play again, and then realize I am no where near their skill level.

    I recently bought a JBL Trio everything in one box music thing.

    It has the ability in almost real time, there's a bit of buffering, to unmix any music I stream to it from my phone. You can dial out vocals, the guitar, drums, etc.

    Being able to separate the tracks in audio, let alone do it in basically real time, would have seemed like black magic in the 70s. Hell, it seems like black magic now.
