Yeah, I know they are probably not THAT bad, especially if you compare them to the competition, but I'm just too comfy with old hardware — I'm just scared of the thought of getting something new, too many things to get used to… Like soldered-in RAM. To me even integrated audio being USB would feel weird.

Same here — I remember doing it a lot as a kid. I already had a computer — not every kid had them, at least not of my generation and not in my country, but I did. So fishing — and other outside activities seemed boring as fuck!
And now I might actually kinda like it. Even if there would be no alcohol involved.

I remember us being concerned when we received first T60 designed by Lenovo.
I'm scared to even think what ThinkPads are today 😱

You're finally ready for genuine Instagram™ experience: post photos of your feet, or your food.

Imagine me doing it in the early days when Wine didn't work or maybe didn't exist at all — there were no VirtualBox or other easy to use virtualization solutions… And as they didn't provide hardware I was like: "Sorry, I can't complete your assignment, I don't have Windows" 🤣

They also used to be narrower — first they were 20 MHz bins, later 40 MHz and now they are 80 MHz.
When they are this wide, it's indeed impossible to fit more, considering that some frequencies are reserved in some countries. There is a way to lift these limitations, but not all equipment might support this.

Как бы с фильтром — но на самом деле, как бы и без 😆

If that is what they really want, they have to make others not vote for him, but this — making him a martyr, might have the opposite effect.
This doesn't mean the he should be let go on these grounds either. Still — not a good reason to celebrate.

I have my own reasons to not like Trump that have nothing to do with the usual Nazi-rapist narrative, I'm not a US citizen, I'm Russian — and I shudder at the thought of what this "stopping the war in days" might mean coming from him.
And yet, I don't get people rejoicing — this conviction has little to do with keeping him out of the office, as far as I understand he can get elected even being in prison.

@moshtodon
Throwback to MMS days — sadly even this "wasn't invented here" 😂

@usluck
IIRC, Of Mice and Men is about a guy strangling a woman with his bare hands — and it's not like he wanted to, he was just very strong and couldn't control his strength properly. Using it as an indirect way to intimidate your opponent is a neat move indeed, but the other party has to be well-read to get the reference 😂

@kirby @maija
Just do something else. Or put some of that music on your iPod or whatever you use — either an album you know well, or some new one that you always wanted to listen to, but never got there — and take a long walk. Might give you some new perspective.

@kirby @maija
I have a quite extensive collection and I know that when every single genre starts feeling stale — even the albums I enjoy very much, it's no longer about the music 😅
Even picking something new probably won't help — it's the way you perceive things at the moment that prevents you from enjoying it.

@newt
Of course they will! If they are bovine cannibals — that is 😬

I don't think that those who use TUI browsers expect widgets to work — but at least the content should be accessible. It would also be nice for the website to support proper pagination when dynamic loading on scrolling isn't accessible — this is great for both cases: when the connection is poor and when there is no JS at all.

Did lynx even exist in 1992? 🤭
I'm not using lynx on a green screen terminal, and I'm most probably not most people, but I use w3m often — and surprisingly, a lot of stuff works.

@newt @iska
As proud owner of old Xeon, I know this like no other — even when CPU performance is enough, RAM becomes a total bottleneck 😩
