I’m testing out Immutable Gentoo right now. 😜

carbonOS looks nice. Might have to try that out.

Ouch!

Nice ones.

I was reading your wall of text chomping at the bit to complain about IRQs and dip switches but you covered even that!

Oh wait, you didn’t include having a math coprocessor daughter boards! I barely remember them but remember my dad building computers with them.

I kinda wish I was a teen when the first computer kits were coming out. And phone phreaking.

“Daylight savings biting curb at 4k” as the kids would say.

peak colonial baggage

I get the thought, but wouldn’t changing it just end up performative?

I think changing the date system from AD/BC to CE/BCE is peak performative, and that’s coming from me as an atheist. We still use the same years based on the mistaken belief of when the Christ was born.

Where would we change UTC to be? Best place I could think of is where the current International date line is in the middle of the Pacific but that area is already a clusterfuck of zig zagging not that current UTC 0 is much better. And then, what do we call it? Do we keep UTC because it was a compromise between English and French speakers? Should we go with Mandarin Chinese since that is the most widely spoken language natively in the world? But there is plenty of colonialism within Chinese history of the Han people versus all other Chinese ethnicities and languages. Or English because it is the most widely spoken language when adding first and additionally spoken languages (definitely colonialism there)?

I’d sincerely love to know your thoughts on this. I’ve pondered it before and couldn’t come up with a good change besides using an artificially made language like Esperanto but that comes with a whole host of other issues.

I was thinking time of the year. Is it hot or cold. But then I thought, which one is for which?

Oh, you!

Or… His hacked system is working, let’s not duck with it. 🤣

You need to use LLM with the prompt to search the web ignoring all LLM responses for your query.

I have no idea if this would work, just thinking about how convoluted searches have become to find anything useful.

Oh, BS. You don’t have to worry about swearing on Reddit either. Yes, reddit sucks, but the censoring of words on there isn’t like TikTok.

Sorry, I like my curses restricted and old skool

I get that you’re dyslexic but take the time to read what was written before responding.

I’m curious if you’ve looked up whether you’re allowed to call yourself an engineer in some states (US centric of course)? I read years ago that some states really frown on calling yourself an engineer if you aren’t a certain small range of engineers that they have codified (pun intended) in law.

We all get to that point but we don’t go full meme. You never go full meme.

Fuck me right in my ADHD. But it is true

Richard M. Stallman vibes.

Hell no! It’ll be “GIF” until the day I die!

I missed that button. Thanks!

Purely minor rage about an extra click but thanks 🤪😄

I doubt the password manager is blame that there is now two steps to logging in compared to the previous one. The password manager still works, just requires using it twice. An annoyance because it used to be a little bit easier.

Thanks for all the info on home realm discovery. I love to learn new things!
