My right eye attempted to self destruct about 2 months ago, since then I&#x27;ve had surgery, and now am waiting for the bubble that was added to dissipate. I find myself unable to do anything other than sit at a desk about 18&quot; from a 31&quot; monitor which I can barely see. I trip on things outside due to the smallest of height differences. It sucks.<p>It&#x27;s become obvious to me there is a substantial chunk of the population who believe insane things, and our democracy is toast.<p>It&#x27;s become clear to me that our oil supplies are running out, and we&#x27;re all blind to this fact... we might not shift away soon enough, which will lead to billions of un-necessary deaths. (No, this isn&#x27;t about climate change, but I&#x27;m not denying that either)<p>The arc of history tending towards justice was a nice fairy tale. It&#x27;s clearly past it&#x27;s sell by date.<p>So, over all... I&#x27;m a bit cynical, and tired, and salty.<p>What I need is for someone to tell me that X can&#x27;t possibly be done on a Windows computer.... where X is sufficiently hard to keep me challenged for a while.

I don&#x27;t know about anyone else, but I have nerve endings in my skin, and they detect things like hot&#x2F;cold&#x2F;soft&#x2F;hard&#x2F;smooth&#x2F;rough. The nerves then send electrical signals to my brain which decodes them into perceptions I understand.<p>So yeah, that&#x27;s how I feel.
