@River_Stone If you don't push yourself too hard and increase the number gradually, there is a non-zero chance you'll eventually like doing push-ups 🤣@fluffy

@vikingkong Yeah, and it makes it even weirder, considering how easy they are on deprecating things.

@vikingkong True! I always disable it when I build Python myself, but it's still there for some reason 🤷🏿

@sneak You're under arrest for not being cold-blooded! 🦎

@safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org I think Tcl/Tk is still a part of Python's standard library as a standard way to do GUI things.

@eris That's odd! I have ~30 sessions and it never happened to me. It does bug me every time if I have unverified sessions, but once I verify them, it's gone.

@eris Videocards like GF3 Ti had only 64 Mb video RAM?! 😯
OMG, it was so long ago!

Это вполне нормально — как и к тем, которых в Интернете нет.

Too hot to do cat things™ today. They are taking a day off 😸

2.96 WAS horrible! I remember seeing this version in RedHat, but I wanted to build it myself, so I went to the GCC website, but there were no sources for 2.96. I looked it up and then I've realized how bad it was. Who could ever come up with such an idea?! 🤪

@meeper
They already do their best to make it worse with every single version. But with Chromium monopoly the web is doomed.

> bullshit policy for port security for an already physically secured environment
The network admin at the company I've worked for in the mid 2000s enabled something like this — so the ports of all the switches get associated with the MAC address of the device plugged into it and… The network in the whole office went down.
It took us half a day to find what was the issue — someone left a passive switch in the conference room that had a cable plugged into itself 🤣
@nerdtronics@mstdn.starnix.network

@james I wonder what this hardware is? 🤔
My PowerPC boxes from early 2000s don't have go, but they have rust.

@EricZhang456@mastodon.technology Come on, it's not called NETbook for nothing! The groundbreaking network capabilities of Windows for Workgroups 3.11 would certainly come in handy 😆
@safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org

@gabriel@mstdn.starnix.networkI think it was real in the post-WW2 US, like the 50-ies.
Imagine the events of Updike's "Rabbit, Run" today: he left a woman with two kids, and not like he left them without a cent, found another woman, moved in with her, bought another car… If that happened today, everyone in this novel would be eating worms or dealing drugs to survive 😅

@solidsanek The cats in the farthest corners look very similar. At a glance I thought the image was mirrored.
Oh, wait, are they all the same cat shot at different moments and then combined? 🤪

@murks Yeah, this one in particular is surprising! I always considered them well known, like phrase "Beam me up, Scotty!" made it well outside the Star Trek fandom 🤷
Well, go easy on them, it's not the end of the wor… Except for when it is!
I mean, in the highly unlikely event of Daleks invading your office, you'd have to take care of them as you are the only one aware what you are up against 🤭

@murks There is a downside to this though: if you decide to share a funny story from work with your friends over beers on a weekend, they might not get it this time as workplace memes™ have no power in this realm 🤣

@murks Ha-ha-ha-ha!
It's frustrating when the joke is really funny, but no one gets it because of the reference. And you are like: "Guys, come on! This is not a Proust quote, it's not called POP-culture for nothing!"
My references are too obscure at times, even close friends don't get it, so I came up with this strategy of implementing workplace memes™. This way you can have fun with your colleagues and make sure they get your jokes.
