> boots for the Soviet army
For the army in particular? After the Winter War? Sounds hard to believe 🤔

@PurpCat BTW, I have a dual Pentium Pro Siemens workstation sitting under my Mac Pro, maybe I should try putting it to use. It's still i686, I'm not sure though that newer Linux kernels will run on it, they definitely don't have PAE and all that 🤔

@PurpCat
For general purpose computing — yes, without proper optimization the whole thing didn't make any sense.
I remember when Pentium Pro was released, it had tons of innovative features and code written specifically for it ran well, but old programs and especially games sucked ass compared to similarly clocked older Pentium, it was such a failure — people hated it🤣
With PII they have mitigated it and old programs ran better.

@PurpCat @theorytoe Wow, Itanium, neat stuff! I thought it was garbage when they were still in use, but now that I did more reading, the idea behind it was actually quite interesting, but too complicated. AMD meanwhile went all in on oversimplification and started eating into Intel's main market so they had to give up on this expensive hobby of theirs.

@neural_meduza Начну разлагаться конечно же — нельза останавливаться на достигнутом. Почивать на лаврах похоронного венка, так сказать 💀

@neural_meduza Ну если своровать достаточно водки из Эрмитажа, в принципе, можно такое заявить 🥴

But they have fixed the Eminem, who's been broken since… forever. What's wrong with that? 🙃
White rapper — who could've come up with that? How is whitewashing black music any better than making some originally white characters black?

@amerika The company I get tea from has a wide range of these mixes and they had one called "Eternal Love" or something like that and they had that on discount so I got some. I come home, brew it and wow — instead of being sweet, it's bitter-ish and spicy and I was like: "Whoah, the person who designs these definitely knows his trade and has a sense of humour" 😂

@amerika
Well, I don't think it's going to be everyone's favourite at a party, but it's interesting. Here that part of flavour that sets Pu'er apart from just strong black tea amplifies the flavour in lemongrass that is hardly distinguishable when it's lemongrass alone.
It's not bad either, but people usually go for something traditionally fruity with Pu'er — I often use tangerine or orange peel myself. I've definitely drank weirder combinations, like tea with spices!

I knew it would eventually come to this. I'm out of fruit flavoured teas and I'm still two days away from being able to replenish my supplies at a discount. However I still have some pu'er tea left so I can mix it with something fruity, problem being — the most "fruity"-flavoured thing I have is lemongrass. So be it, behold the most cursed tea mix ever created!
I'm not wondering is it any good, I'm wondering how good it is!
Still have to wait for it to brew…

@neural_meduza Это с чего же, позвольте поинтересоваться? 🤔

@neural_meduza Глубинноуважаемый народ.

@neural_meduza А после того, как выпивали водку, изобретать переставали🥴

@james
BTW it has a weird sounding "skip" at 26:28, I've been listening to this mix and even wrote that down, but I have never told
@dorkbsd that 😅
He has just introduced it then and now it's probably too late to fix. Anyway, everything else's top notch.
