I still have my "DNS and BIND" book from O'Reilly when it seemed necessary at the time in 1994 for a nailed down 128K circuit I used for unserious stuff.
my kid thought it was a picture book because of the publisher's obligatory creature on the front cover (a cricket drawing, because of the author's name) -

Fire Departments stopped responding to calls to rescue cats around 1975 ... when they realized nobody ever saw a skeleton up in a tree for at least a century 🤷 -

Intel made their offer a full 2 days before that McAfee incident. 😳
There is a full dive article being released later today from the author of the original article, going into the details of that. -

Party of the first part, like it's 1999.

I think that such "internal levers" are quite underrated.
There is a #MathGrenade auction on Ebay right now (in its final day, up to $550 currently) of a 1964 CURTA hand crank mechanical calculator

Good to know which is free, there.(still ... text message 2FA is the one that many of us push hard for family to use, since it's a big improvement for their PW usage methods)
* their one unchanged, shared password they keep using even after breaches at T-Mobile, Comcast -- and Yahoo 10 years ago 😬

there was a great 40 yard dash anecdote about Chicago Bears head coach Abe Gibron, from the Dick Butkis and Gale Sayers era.
the dude was *wide* at the very least, and in earlier years when the team cut rookies during tryouts there was an option to first go head-to-head with former guard Abe (which ended poorly for them)
