Is Fox really trying to make "Alt Left" happen?

Rachel McAdams really needs to step up and tell them they're not going to make "alt left" happen.

Would it really surprise you if it did happen among the MAGAs?

If that's standard then I'd like to go into public service.

When I was at the University of Florida, we used to register for classes by going to the basement of the registration building and picking up a punch card for every class we wanted to enroll in. If all the cards were gone, the class was full.

The first computer that I used with any regularity ran CP/M and had eight inch floppy drives. We were cooking with gas when we installed a 10MB hard drive. It also had an attached card reader for data entry.

these were so dope.

That must have taken up a lot of room!

^^ ^ Reminds me of this scene in Groundhog Day:

Rita: Believe it or not, I studied 19th-century French poetry.

Phil:  What a waste of time!  I mean, for someone else that would be an incredible waste of time. It's so bold of you to choose that. It's incredible; you must have been a very very strong person.

My freshman year, what few computers existed took up an entire room, and data processing majors carried reams of fanfold paper printed with endless lines of binary code that I couldn't make any sense of. My Android is probably more powerful.
