My brother just died today. [March 5th, 2020]

My brother just died today in a fatal car accident on his way to work. It's suspected that he had a seizure, and floored the gas pedal. He ended up taking out a power pole with just his Acura Integra. My family is suffering this great loss very unexpectedly. He left behind a wife, and a 13 year old daughter. Him and his wife just got married last July, and she's already a widow in less than a year. Absolutely tragic. I went out to see them all today after the devastating phone call from our mother. Andrew didn't even get to see his 35th birthday. He loved working on cars, playing guitar, building arcade cabinets, playing with his dog and daughter, tinkering with computers, and even enjoyed flying in my stepdad's small plane. Andrew is my only sibling, and so our little world just got a whole lot smaller. Rest in peace, little brother.

I couldn't even imagine losing any of my brothers like that. Words and good will can't do much in a situation like this, but you and your family have every little bit of my condolences.

Keep staying strong out there

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
