I’m Canadian, and this year I went to Florida to fulfill a life-long (I’ll be 60 next year) dream to visit the Kennedy Space Center. One thing I noticed, beyond getting “randomly secondarily” screened at EVERY security checkpoint, was that there were no wait lines for anything anywhere.

No lines at NASA, no lines at restaurants, no lines at Orlando attractions. At least nothing more than a couple of minutes, at most. Even the beaches were mostly empty…

Thanks for the driving tip as I absolutely am renting a car at the Orlando airport and driving out to our hotel, which is about 15-20 minutes away from KSC.

I plan on spending at least two full days there so I’ll try to hit all of that. How much of that has to be booked in advance?

Also, is it still possible to visit the Apollo 1 memorial?

59 years old today and still in denial.

From Atari’s Combat, through Tribes, and now Helldivers, the gaming goes on. There may come a day when I put away my mouse and controller …

BUT IT IS NOT THIS DAY!

I wish I could afford red meat…

Take a page from Ukraine. Drones can drop all kinds of interesting things.

As an older (55+) man, this has indeed been my life experience

Used Ubuntu Linux for a year back around '08-'09. Didn’t have a great experience and went back to Windows. Since then I’ve never had a reason to try it again. That said, I’ve nothing but respect for those that use a flavour of Linux or Mac OS. At the end of the day doing the things you need done is what matters and if a different OS than mine gets you there, that’s awesome.
