actually if it's a real Sony Laserdiscman, it'd probably be a CRVDisc, their own laserdisc variant format, which comes with a CARTRIDGE!

I'd suggest turning the rich, especially warhawks, into humanitarian ration pouches, but they're neither kosher nor halal.

I'm eating a pouch of "U.S. GOVERNMENT PROPERTY COMMERCIAL RESALE IS UNLAWFUL" I purchased commercially from a bodega, and I'm wondering:
If the rich are going to send off our young people to die in yet another forever war in yet another foreign land because the people's skin isn't white and the liquid in the reservoirs under their feet is black, the surely there's a way we can feed our troops by cooking, canning, freeze-drying, and preserving the rich industrially into MREs.

✨ The command
rm -vir Mr_Morden/
means remove Mr_Morden and his associates, and show proof suitable for Vir Cotto.

CDE was commercial software born in the Unix Wars, so it was expected to have an integrated online user-oriented manual. One that's complete, comprehensive, and written for the end user, accessible from a very lightweight hypertext browser utility, is a high standard programmers and technical writers should strive for even today.
I am presently torturing myself with CDE. It's in FreeBSD's pkg repo and ports tree, and it provides a functional desktop, but it's too broken to be usable. The right-click menu is often incomplete, some tools crash and dump core, and Information Manager errors out with a configuration-related error message the 'Net has never written about.
That last one is sad because its command, dtinfo, runs just fine from the terminal emulator and reveals a complete and comprehensive help system library.
So apparently Fred Rogers Productions just started a new YouTube channel where they'll be uploading every episode of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood
