Funny, I remember it from the beginning (dQw) so I was confused as to what you were referring to :)

The person in the picture is Enrique Tarrio, leader of the far-right group "Proud Boys". He received a 22 year prison sentence for his role in the January 6th attack on the US Capitol building.

He is of Afro-Cuban descent and it is rather certain that Trump would not give two shits about his parents.

Therefore it is a bit interesting/paradoxical that he is supportive of Trump.

That would be Leif.

"Lief" I have never encountered before, it means gladly or willingly.

This is the second time this week I've learnt a new (old) word from Mr. True.

1e100.net is google's catch-all domain. Many of their services run under this domain.

It is a geeky pun, 1e100 is scientific notation for 1 followed by a hundred zeroes. This number is called a googol, which is similar sounding to google.

It is an infrared receiver extension cord.

Say you have a device that is controlled by an infrared remote, but is tucked away out of line of sight.

You can use this cord to move the infrared receiver into sight.

Here it is on amazon : https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Infrared-Receiver-Receiving-Distance/dp/B07FKMK3GZ

Beautiful story. Feel that we've all been there. Every now and then, when the assumption is that the stupid piece of tech isn't working, and there it is, just functioning as intended :)

Thanks for sharing
