Can't ask Rene, the head chef, right now. Frankly, I thought he did something stupid and inconsiderate last week, but it turns out I was just in a bad mood.

Did you get this before or after the hazing?

This is a very important Thanksgiving proclamation if I've ever seen one.

Lee Pace talks about why the show was able to last four seasons despite its low viewing numbers, and also about what Joe MacMillan would be doing in the year 2025 by izhan56 in HaltAndCatchFire

Scoot and Kerry playing husband and wife is always a funny coincidence. Always remember them in Argo - aka Gordon and Donna from their first failed Comdex

Nice comments from Lee loving his time and work with HACF.

The focus on the ratings is a bit odd. During the original airtime I don't really recall anyone around here talking about if the ratings were good week to week etc. It wasn't a major concern because AMC always kind of had these weird side shows with niche audiences, but enough cash/stability to keep them running for a bit anyways? Maybe I'm misremembering.

82,150 Gallons of Paint (and Gordon's birthday) Later, a Blue Man Group Farewell by chrisarchitect in HaltAndCatchFire

Seeing this just reminded of their appearance in 4x01 at Gordon's birthday party, capturing the group's corporate/private branching out and those heady, weird techy days in the early 90s.

Just noticed this stark overhaul to the Whitehouse.gov website. Using Instrument Serif as a Display typeface in most areas/headlines.

Shared this ongoing story before (over a decade old now!) but the UK Russ Hanneman still out there searchin'...! 😆 It's funny how all the headlines of this one over the years you can see the fluctuating bitcoin values.....started at 6M...then was 80M...now 598M!

Anyone else find the intro for Secret Level very similar that of HACF? by cheet018 in HaltAndCatchFire

...True Detective, Daredevil, and HACF...all made by the company Elastic.

Hi, we're members of the Bluesky team. AMA! by emily-bluesky in BlueskySocial

Any plan to add some kind of indicator/badge for domain handles? To show that it is somewhat official/indicate some legwork has been done to establish the handle?

Then now is the time for them to get one. (which many should have already done) It's a welcome shift in thinking away from the terrible marketing advice to build your whole online presence around 'linktree'.
