@RetroByteVault Xbox Series X is my favorite controller. My favorite console of all time is split between PS2/Xbox 360. Hard toss up but PS2 is probably the GOAT.
I can’t believe there are people out there who think the vaccine actually saved people. It saved no one and did nothing but harm and kill.
I literally cannot….
@Protestia As a Presbyterian, some of my best times with my brothers is had while smoking cigars, drinking whiskey or a good pint, and discussing the Lord and His Word.
Steve Jobs on Failure (1994):
"I've actually always found something to be very true, which is most people don't get those experiences because they never ask.
I've never found anybody that didn't want to help me if I asked them for help. I always call them up.
I called up, this will date me, but I called up Bill Hewlett when I was 12 years old, and he lived in Palo Alto.
His number was still in the phone book. And he answered the phone himself.
He said, yes?
I said, hi, I'm Steve Jobs. I'm 12 years old. I'm a student in high school, and I want to build a frequency counter. And I was wondering if you had any spare parts I could have.
And he laughed, and he gave me the spare parts to build this frequency counter, and he gave me a job that summer in Hewlett-Packard working on the assembly line, putting nuts and bolts together on frequency counters.
He got me a job in the place that built them. And I was in heaven.
And I've never found anyone who said no or hung up the phone When I call, I just ask.
And when people ask me, I try to be as responsive to pay that debt of gratitude back.
Most people never pick up the phone and call. Most people never ask.
And that's what separates sometimes the people that do things from the people that just dream about them.
You've got to act.
And you've got to be willing to fail.
You've got to be willing to crash and burn with people on the phone, with starting a company, with whatever. If you're afraid of failing, you won't get very far.
@TungstenMonarch@5Solas2 Dude continue your quest against Calvinism. It won’t work. The preordaining of all things does not negate or destroy the free will of the creature. It establishes it. If you know so much about Calvinism, you will know where that is taught. Hint: it’s in the most famous confession
