Well they did have another 6 yrs old that was visiting with another couple from their church so… I believe you got it right 👍

A fair mixture of 1 and 9.

Or kill actively kill whistleblowers to keep them quiet!

I discovered Linux with RedHat 4.2

Bingo, and California moving to outright ban chrome plating shops. It’s all about money, always was.

That’s what I had in mind while reading the post.

Food grade forever chemicals! 😂

Fix freezing/crashing bugs on android first ! I don’t need nor want AI. I need and want a stable browser.

I still use it all the time exept when a page crash. Wich unfortunately happened too often with Firefox lately. I have a Pixel 8 and it crashes/freeze when scrolling heavy pages or PDF.

It’s annoying that the browser I want to use is crashing so often. But I won’t use Chrome unless I’m forced to, wich the only reasons I was forced to was Firefox freezing.

I did too around that time. I could use realtime to stream my tvtuner on a pentium 90MHZ and play it with winamp on another device.

That reads like a highschool drama, WTF is the whole world gone coocoo ?

Nice ! You made me think of spinning up a little server. It’s been a while since I’ve dabbled in managing a server and not aure I have the time for that. But you made the chances if me going for it much higher.

Would a raspberry pi 4 be enough for running it ?

Oups my bad eyes didn’t see it’s a magic wand. I get the broom 🧹 and magic wand 🪄 but the witch doesn’t come up.

🪄 this one ?

Yeah after loosing everything multiple times I developed an anti-attachment kind of feeling to things and people.

It’s a boring just surviving type of life now. I do what I need to to survive but have no intentions of ownership on anything and don’t feel like investing so much time in relationships.

But almost two years ago I bought my first car (I was 44) and I don’t want to loose it as I love driving around aimlessly, it keeps my mind busy has a great sound for music and I control the climate. (It’s always too cold or hot at work and too cold at home). If it was not for the cost I would spend most of my time driving but I have to preserve the vehicle as long as possible and don’t have much money for maintenance amd gas.

It’s weird how I could loose almost anything and would not be phased by it. But please let me keep my car, it’s the only reason I wake up to go to work and have some hope for the future. But my insurance got raised by 25% last year apparently because other people are bad drivers (I was told too many claims cost insurers too much but I never made a claim, so cause of too many bad drivers I have to pay for them, fuck them charge them or don’t let them drive why me !) , gas and parts and everything necessary has gone up and if I don’t get a substantial raise I won’t be able to keep up.

That’s refreshing from the normal News cycle.

Thanks for sharing. BBS’s and epic pinball are the reasons for my interest in computer as a kid. I would watch my friend go on BBS’s and play text based game and download ASCII art all day to the point I learned a lot the got my first real computer (386 sx), I had a coco3 as a kid but that was just BASICS with no floppy or tape to load or save programs.

The 386 was such a new world of possibilities especially with software downloaded from BBS’s, took ages but got lots of kool games and music files (.mod) etc… of course porn for a young teen was also nice lol.

For fucks sake why isn’t all assitive devices open source already. Making profit over disabled people misery is such a evil thing ! The capitalist are so fucking out of touch it’s crazy. Kids dying, disabled people pressed for every penny they have etc… how the fuck did we let things go this bad.

And yet I keep seeing push for nuclear energy in the news stating it as ‘clean’ energy ? Is it clean or dangerously radioactive ? They outa set their minds in the news. I personally despise creating pollution that will last longer than a generation. Why put onto others the repercussions of our own comfort ?

The same people calling nuclear clean argue that solar and wind is polluting. I would rather have the pollution of a solar and wind production in my backyard than nuclear waste.
