I use a PowerBook G4 running MorphOS.

My parents never bought me an Amiga when I was little, and I’ve been making up for it ever since.

Best of both world is to work remote for those northern companies while having lower cost of living down south where the darkness of midwinter doesn’t hit as hard.

Gee, I can’t imagine why they chose to drop this bomb today.

It’s like they wanted it to be drowned in other news.

It was a shiny EGA card.

On an 8-bit ISA bus, with a whopping 64kB of VRAM. It could display an amazing 16 colours on one screen.

My friend who had a CGA card was so jelly with his four eye-soaring neon colours.

If we’re talking accelerated graphics, I bought a voodoo 2 with 8mb of RAM which linked up to my ATI Mach 64 2d-card.

I plugged one in today. I left the screws loose. Ironically I moved it between two computers that couldn’t originally do VGA.

I re-organised my leisure desk. My C64 sometimes hooks up to a TFT thanks to my turbo chameleon 64 cartridge.

Today I hooked my C64 up to my CRT instead. I needed that TFT for my Amiga 1200 which has DVI-I out thanks to my indivision flickerfixer. But I have a DVI->VGA adapter to use that same cable.

The theorem holds true. The theorem states that the monkey has infinite time, not just the lifetime of our universe.

That’s just lazy science to change the conditions to make sensational headlines. Bad scientists!

All my troubles seemed so far away?

I’ll keep that secret from her 😅

Three years ago, I bought my wife a laptop with Windows 10 to replace her 10yo windows 7 machine.

It had hardware issues out of the box, and went in on two repairs. It works fine now, AFAIK.

But, she still doesn’t trust it, and she doesn’t think that she can move her Adobe CS6 license over to it…

I even bought her the affinity suite.

I’m starting to think she’ll never move on from Windows 7.

I think the major browsers stopped supporting it sometime during the last year, so my best hope is that some included certificates will eventually make her favourite websites stop working. That has to force her over to something more recent… right?

I use arch, btw.

I was staring at that username for quite a bit after reading the comment saying that it was in their username. I did not get it, either.

Even knowing that there’s a trans flag, and that that’s what is in the username, I wouldn’t know what pronouns to use.

Plenty of options for dual SIM phones here, too.

Which makes it even more convenient to just pop in a local SIM while traveling.

For the occasions where you’re uncertain if it’s gigabytes or gibibytes.

Meanwhile, my 2018 T480 has 64 gigglebytes of memory.

I have two accounts with the same bank in two different EU-countries.

I need to call them to get interrogated for 20 minutes to get international transfers enabled for 24 hours, and for my other account as recipient only.

Revolut sounds like a dream for anyone who cares about their sovereignty. I hate being baby-sat by my bank.

Not so much sailing, but being miserable living on a boat while refitting it on a shoe string budget and no skills. I think this is a suitable entry point to their channel - Wildlings sailing.

What does this next-word suggestion on my keyboard do, you ask? A bit more than welcome back from a lot more of a day and a lot more of a day and I don’t have to be in your room. The same as the only thing you have a year in your life is the same thing I can imagine if I don’t have to be in a bit more than I don’t know how I was in your room. Please can you don’t have to be in the office for a while but I don’t think so but I will be in the office tomorrow. My phone is on the same page as a bit more of a day of the same as you don’t have to be in the house and the kids are not allowed to be in the office.

How are not too much for the only one in your room now so you don’t have a bit more of it when I get to work.

I bought one years ago. Maybe 2018? I think it’s a kindle touch 8th gen, ad-supported. Cost me ~60€, ad-supported. It got jailbroken and KOReader installed. It has stayed offline since, so those ads have long since expired.

It gets the job done. I’ve never been in the amazon e-book ecosystem, and I don’t want to be licensing my books at their mercy.

Standardized firmware isn’t something that’s specified in the ISA, is it? It’s just shitty phone manufacturers.

Asus had some x86 phones a few years back. I haven’t dug into them, but I doubt they had a full bios/efi.

pine64 arm devices have u-boot, while a bootloader does fullfil a subset of the uefi spec.

Integrated GPU is not a dirty word anymore.

AMD’s system-on-a-chips with RDNA2/3 pack almost the same punch as the discrete cards with the same architecture. See steamdeck as the prime example, but there’s quite a few boards, boxes and laptops with the same.

My desktop, laptop and homelab all synd my important stuff over syncthing. They all do btrfs snapshots three months back in case an oopsie would propagate.

The homelab additionally fetches deduplicated snapshots of my VPS weekly, before syncing all of the above to an encrypted hetzner storage for those burning-down-the-house events.
