OMFG!!! Now I'm going to get another 15 followers on the federated social network! 😱
Maybe 20 even!!! 😵
@kirby
Most distros allow you to keep several versions of PostgreSQL.
@kaia
We sure do! 🤩
I do a complete playthrough of original C&C every few years, I think I should do Tiberian Sun and Firestorm too, I even have an old Toshiba laptop with Windows 2000 to make it an authentic experience — but sadly, I never get to it 😞
@eric
You can also left click the leftmost bar, the one labelled with C0, C1, C2, etc., hold the mouse button and move the mouse cursor left and right AFAIR — no need to touch the keyboard.
Or was it up and down? 🤔 In any case, you can do it with just the pointing device.
@newt @amiloradovsky
And this alone made me never consider this cloud shit.
In part it was due to working for organizations for which relying on offsite infrastructure wasn't acceptable — but I would never suggest it myself either, maybe as a backup or for occasional spikes in workload, not more than that
@newt @amiloradovsky
Everyone expects some very competent people overseeing all this cloud infrastructure, and that it would be build on some rock-solid technology — but in reality it's the same engineers as everywhere else and the same throwaway nodes running same Linux systems.
When Google introduced its App Engine and they were already accepting payments for it, despite it still being in beta: both formally and de-facto, judging by its reliability — it went unresponsive for days.

One pay phone on a distant sparsely populated street got it particularly bad — they were made of steel or other strong metal, but as I got a little help from my friends, there was literally nothing there to repair — they have just replaced it in a few months. And it only had four coins inside — definitely not the main motivation 😅
@lain @kaia
It's embarrassing, but I used to do it a lot when CCTV cams weren't even remotely that common: vending machines, street pay phones, even those Soviet code locks used to unlock entrances of houses. I didn't even do it for the money — I was well aware of the tricks you could use to cheat them, but I was still interested in how they work. They were demonstrating coin-operated machines at the Polytechnic Museum, but my parents never took me there 😩
@kaia
The search for oneself. Pursuing this quest is always rewarding 😆
@StefanThinks
The hat or the linux distribution? Nevermind — both would probably work, just to a different degree with different kind of women 😅
@japananon
Likewise here, never was a fan of spending time in prison 😅
Luckily, theft (and by extension of it, copyright infringement and piracy) is often even encouraged here — half the Internet doesn't work if I use it directly, but at least I can do toorrenting right from my home IP-address.
@Hyolobrika
Georgia only just passed its Russian law, and the government has already introduced legislation targeting LGBTQ+ people. This is by no means accidental.
Like it or not, we have become a geopolitical signal. We often symbolise the 'degenerate' West – as well as opposition to it. In the world of 2024, queer folk are not seen as people, we are tools. We are international scapegoats.
And when they come for us, they're coming for democracy itself. Our freedom is everyone's freedom.
@Hyolobrika
Because Internet of Creatures turned out to be an utter failure 🤭
@romin
There is a new Horo show? Da-a-amn! 😱
@deprecated_ii @sickburnbro
I've never given it a thought until today — Nvidia is indeed a fabless company! OMFG 😱
None
Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
