Local landowner has really done it this time. This ROW always blocked or obstructed. This time actually barbed wire on the padlocked gate. What can I do about it?

This sums up how a lot of us feel. I’m Gen X so I was crazy for the computer, for what it could do. I worked as a computer journalist a few times. I love games and tech and all that stuff. Where we are now isn’t that. This is the worst kids in the world being allowed to be their very worst selves.

I’m the guy who invents new bathroom faucet designs for every hotel. You might know me from Knob That Goes The Other Way and Joystick That’s Hard To Turn Off. Lately I’ve been lacking inspiration, even thinking about hanging it up. I’ve had a good run, but — wait, never mind: Ball You Turn Diagonal

please don't do this. we all know AI sucks. we don't have to make it burn however much resources just for a goof. you can use udm14.org if you want to search Google with no AI, or you can pick a different search engine that doesn't have AI or has the option to turn it off. I like Ecosia & Duckduckgo
