...now that's a name i've not heard in - two months...

...we had the ~~4016~~ 2001N with an external tape drive: not quite as much geek-cred as the original 2001, but still respectable...
...is that the demo?..
...yeppers; don't use a computer...
...every employer i've worked with endeavors to put people doing the actual work on salary as soon as possible, so they can harvest that sweet sweet unpaid overtime for maximum profitability...
...nah man, i'm here for casual conversation; nothing at all shameful about honest ignorance, only willful ignorance...
...because it's a plainly ignorant statement akin to "i don't like french music": do you just dislike ~~music~~ malt whisky?..that's a fair statement, but one which would apply to all malt whiskies regardless of nation of origin, as there's no unifying style distinguishing scotch in particular...
...conversely, if you don't mind other malt whiskies but dislike something specific about scotch, that's indicative of narrow experience coloring your expectation of a vast ecology of styles and expressions which have little in common other than being based on barley, water, distillation, and age...
..."i don't like scotch" is a common statement from folks who've only sampled peated malts; your listerine comment sounds like medicinal peat notes, which are a divisive style...
...that page has some cut to balance the preceding fill... π₯
...i generally prefer windows open to the world but i'll concede that it's niiiiice, though: i never sleep better than nestled underneath a blasting window-box on a hot summer night...
...'scotch' encompasses such a vast diversity of spirits that i presume anyone who blanket-dislikes it either 1) doesn't like malt whisky in general, fair enough, or 2) mis-apprehends a specific style as endemic to scotch whisky as a whole...
...the latter folks typically dislike peated malts, often after sampling bottom-shelf blends...
...i need a really good bag for about eighty chessex-style dice: any better-suited options out there than the crown royal standard?..

...i'm not big on contrived replacements; i may rejoin organically at some point in the indeterminate future but if i'm out i'm out...
