Happy Father’s Day

To all the dads out there Happy Father’s Day. Being a father means a lot of different things these days. Some moms play the role of dads, and some fill the role of dad through adoption, marriage, and so many other ways. Enjoy this day good people.

It’s Father’s Day Tomorrow, I Miss You Dad

It’s Father’s Day tomorrow and I miss this man every single day of my life. To be honest it sucks he is not here. The saying he’s in a better place is bull. The best place he could be is with his family enjoying life with us. I am not angry at him for not being here but I am angry that we didn’t get more time with him. You never get over the loss. Ever. Dad, I love you, and thank you for being my dad. I do wish we could have dinner together tomorrow around the family table. I miss those times.

It’s Hot Where I Am

It’s been seasonably hot where I live for the past couple of weeks. Our temperatures have been in the 90s. Today it decided to rain so the humidity is going to be rough. I do wish things would cool down a bit

Farewell Microsoft Internet Explorer 1995-2022

On Wednesday, June 15, 2022, Microsoft officially ended support for its once-dominant web browser, Internet Explorer. I remember first seeing it in its 2.0 version and I used it for a few years after it adopted Java and Animated gifs. MSIE put a hurting on then-dominant browser Netscape, which I still have nostalgia for.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 2.0

The Internet changed because of Microsoft. Developers made websites to work with it forcing people to use it over alternatives.

Competition finally began to eat into the market share dominance it once enjoyed. IE has been replaced by Edge, an excellent cross-platform browser that can be used on Windows and Linux.

The joke I have heard today is it’s the best browser to download Google’s Chrome. Well, I guess we will have to use alternatives now. Rest in Pixels Internet Explorer.
