    @Tenchi Masaki Out of curiosity, do you know if it's worth it to rent out GPU/CPU time on a rig like mine... Threadripper 3960X with a Titan X, 32Gigs RAM (for now... hope for more RAM someday)

    @Lucy If you use Chrome, it should share your password between devices... though that depends on how you have it set up (and, if it's the same account... I can be on either of my machines and it just autofills).

    You know, there was a question from one of my fb pages I follow that asked, if time travel were possible what event would you visit in history and change. My response was that I'd stop or make sure Hitler were never born. And then I began thinking about it. And thought....how would that change ACME? Would we still be Anerican and international? Would we still have The united nations and NATO?
