<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@isagalaev" class="u-url mention">@<span>isagalaev</span></a></span> </p><p>Good night. Good chatting with you.</p>
<p>the menu system limits menus to having a maximum of 32 items.</p><p>which is weird because ONLY 17 WILL FIT ON SCREEN</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kevinbowen" class="u-url mention">@<span>kevinbowen</span></a></span> I&#39;m on optimist, anyway. Just like hearing people&#39;s stories :-) Thanks!</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@isagalaev" class="u-url mention">@<span>isagalaev</span></a></span> </p><p>I&#39;m terribly sorry. That sucks.</p><p>My maternal great-grandparents came over ~1914-16 pre-revolution from Lithuania/Latvia and there were a few that smuggled themselves over the Polish/German border a few years earlier. <br />Even though I&#39;ve forgotten it, I grew up in Russian &amp; Polish speaking households. I&#39;ve always considered my family to be an immigrant family, FWIW.</p>
<p>there&#39;s code in here specifically to detect if it&#39;s running on an IBM PS/1 by looking at the CMOS area? </p><p>WHAT THE</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kevinbowen" class="u-url mention">@<span>kevinbowen</span></a></span> my folks are in Russia and Ukraine. You can probably imagine any sort of travel now is impossible, and the entire thing is very complicated.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@isagalaev" class="u-url mention">@<span>isagalaev</span></a></span> </p><p>I kinda-sorta understand. I&#39;m a 1st generation migrant from the East Coast and a 3rd generation immigrant from the &quot;old country&quot;. I once met a distant cousin of mine from Latvia; but, that was 30 years ago.</p><p>Aside from my daughter, the rest of my family remains on the East Coast &amp; we all kinda drifted apart once the grandmother&#39;s passed in the mid &#39;90s.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kevinbowen" class="u-url mention">@<span>kevinbowen</span></a></span> I&#39;m quietly envious as a first-generation migrant. We don&#39;t get any family visits…</p>
