@gemlog Wow, you must be spending hours in these crazy traffic jams 🤣
@Uniflame It's not about gene itself only, whether it is considered an evolutionary advantage or disadvantage is also a factor. I think society isn't up to most autistic people having several kid yet, but when society adapts so it's no longer considered a disadvantage then yes, it might happen.
I believe ADHD might be considered an advantage at some poing and I think it was at certain point in the past.
@splitshockvirus Do I get a free catwife too? 😼
I hope I do, writing that comment was no small feat!

@calculsoberic@mstdn.social Nice nickname!
I have this photo of my cat lying next to "C Programming Language" and "Go Programming Language" books. Looks somewhat relevant 😸

Don't get me wrong, I like ThinkPads, but from business perspective it was right. That branch wasn't profitable for them and they really wanted to concentrate more on stuff like mainframes and business applications. Things were good for them even here in Russia. A couple of my friends worked for IBM and they've sold a bunch of DB2 licenses to Moscow gov't, I swear I've seen some websites still running on WebSphere in 2015! 🤪

@curiousthinker My T43 is still good. Has its uses with TUI apps like tut and gomuks. But you're right, it's underpowered to open today's web sites in Firefox. It does fine with two tabs, but anything above that is unusable. The web is a disaster 😩
@james@mstdn.starnix.network @splitshockvirus
@james@mstdn.starnix.network They are! IBM sold off that branch of their business some time around 2005. I remember this transition quite well: how ugly X60s and T60s were compared to their predecessors. I remember quality contol declining, when three laptops from same batch all had different chargers… Who could've known that things could get even worse than that 🤣
@splitshockvirus
@voxel I'm using ArrowOS, but on Pixel device Graphene probably makes more sense
@Tijn
Exactly! I think most electronic music producers should take them. Because when you're just filling the grid you don't even realize how unnatural this sounds like to most — because you've never played real drums. Drum machines have been available for decades, but I think this stuff is still important to master.

@mian It was USB 2.0 at the time, which only has theoretical maximum bandwidth of 480 Mbps and USB doesn't have DMA so it's a huge burden on CPU.
USB is an excellent interface for stuff like mice, keyboards and printers, but I hate that it gets used for things like network or display adapters.
There was Firewire which had mini connector and also had DMA and bandwidth up to 800 Mbps, but it wasn't that common in PC/Windows laptops. From top of my head only Sony had such ports.

With their wings spread out into the night
And they can't quite remember what they were before
All they know is that they want for more
@root There are often vulnerabilities in imaging libraries which can give you privilege escalation. First iPhones were hacked by a specially formed jpeg file, same with Nintendo DSi.
And XP still has an unpatched bug like that, it was found after it went out of support so MS just advises you to turn off thumbnails in file explorer 🤷
@Rezard Это прямо в шапку профиля ставить можно 😁

@tut Thank you!
And thank you for great software that tut is! One of the reasons why TUI apps are my daily drivers nowadays! 👍
@splitshockvirus BTW if HP is a viable alternative to you and you are fine with AMD, maybe this?

I don't have any personal experience with it, but looks nice. Comes with 16 Gbs, but is upgradable to 64, supports fast NVMe SSDs and is built for Linux, it even comes with PopOS. Built-in display looks good enough on paper, I'm not sure if it can drive three eternal ones though.
@tut
Oh, yes! I have to make a [[open-custom.programs]] subsection, this works!
Put these examples in the sample config please, it's not obvious as it is.
Also, please make the parser fail if there is an error somewhere in config, currently it just fails silently. If I e.g. put something like program=["mpv"] into config file the parser just fails silently, but the program still starts without any config at all, even the theme is ignored.

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.
