@idiot@sun I've been Windows-free for 23 years until a duress came to me in shape of my new GPS, which needs databases updated in order to remain legal.
@sun@whiteline@ageha@meowski Didn't Paul Graham say that only 1 in 10 of the startup that he financed at YC succeed (to exit)? I may be mis-attributing this.
@ageha@meowski@sun I don't think the latter is possible. I heard from e.g. Helen ("Dr. Helen") Smith that Trump is extremely intelligent (although that applied to Trump before he was the president). I consider that a good authority. I suspect people may be fooled by his dubious personnel choices, but only because they forget shit like Harriet Meyers and Anita Dunn, chosen by other presidents. I know this is going to make me a putinbot, but Putin's ability to assign capable people to key positions makes him stand out among world leaders. But that is not a proof that he's smarter than Trump or Obama. He may have a longer decision horizon or feel more secure, and, well, have good eye for personnel. The downside is that he's just as gullible as Trump when "experts" say something. Remember that Fauci is fully Trump's fault.
@meowski@sun Dementia is my great fear. Because of the disintegration of the personality, I will not even be able to off myself once it sets in.
I was flying an approach into Skylark (KILE) on Saturday, which is based on an off-airport VOR beacon. We passed the flip point and followed the LP (GPS) procedure, which is based on distance. I looked at my DME indicator and then had a moment of scary confusion because it showed 5.6, while the procedure is interrupted at 7 nm. I had a big Biden Moment because I somehow could not connect that with the beacon off airport, the distance actually _grows_ as you _approach_ the airport. Fortunately the weather was good.
The next day I cut an avocado, and put one half on the sandwich and the other half on the saver. Then I very nearly put the saver with the avocado into the drawer where avocado slicer goes.

How do I "rebuild all objects in this database"? I have no clue.
