Don’t worry friend. We shall let you go on vacation to learn the truth of the history you should really know. Also, it is not vacation.

I think the hardest truth I just learned is that it’s been 31 years since highschool.

Just keep digging! I’m sure you’ll find something to hang on to. Some small thread of kindness the accused murderer did towards someone. Some brief show of weak humanity towards others. Go on, keep looking. Good luck.

Bleh. Late 90s I was a mobile pc tech and I could have used these gloves back then on some computers. People are gross.

Just had a conversation with someone on this last weekend. They’re what I call someone dependent on corporate daycare. They need to be working or they lack self value. Their boss is an ass, hardly works and this guy thinks he’s slacking at 12 hours a day (exaggerated only a little).

What are you doing that is so important? Is it saving someone’s life? Life changing cancer drugs? No no, it’s a PowerPoint that shows the progress on the projects of equally less important tasks that is only making your boss look good.

And the fucker still thinks he’s not WORKING HARD ENOUGH!!

My actual reply to this nonsense that I’ve experienced before. Tell me what your startup does that benefits humanity. Other than making a few people rich, how does humanity benefit from this product. You want me to give up my life outside of work and I will, the moment you tell me this product will make humanity better.

I’m too tired of this bullshit. These people would rather just keep digging holes than determine the best way to build a house. If you’re ever in this situation, you dodged a bullet.

So… not immigrants? Hmmm

This man really needs to realize things are not rated like golf. Lowest scores are NOT good.

I had one. Awesome, until winter and the audio would stutter till the drive was warm. Bumps, road rivets, all ended the drive in a year

He doesn’t know, that he doesn’t know what the fuck he’s doing.

Sheesh people, it’s “fuck around and find out”. Probably more appropriate in the leopards eating face context but this works enough.

Trust me, any public transport would be great but even in liberal states we’re seeing large fund cuts. The public bus stop 5 min from my house that went straight to the tram that goes downtown is now a 30 min walk that goes to a diff tram station that goes to my regular tram station which goes downtown. 1.5 hours to go 15 miles, I’ll uber. Or in summer months I’ll ride my bike to the close tram.

I can’t wait to move to the city….

Yeah see, then you get me as a parent My boys were battling it out, in game and in real. I make them get off the game but stay logged on, used the axe to dig till I was at the bottom and dulled the axe. Did this for both, then made them listen while those zombie things came and killed them.

This only had to happen once. They never fought again.

Ok, you poke fun but there are public bathrooms in Italy that have a hose and nozzle just like this near the toilet so you can rinse.

Yeah, sorry. Nerded out there for a sec on description. I don’t remember the lag that much, doom was ok. I think we all upgraded to 10Base-T ethernet (you remember the bnc stuff) after playing quake and host tended to have the gaming advantage. A few of us worked at a pc repair shop, so we could source (aka borrow) the parts if we couldn’t afford to buy them.

A few laters Quake world came out, someone finally popped for a hub and we all had 100mbit cards installed. But around then, we got @HOME in my neighborhood and gamespy was my new friend. I hated hauling my whole setup once a month after a year or so.

Token Ring is a network protocol where a token—a small data packet—circulates around a ring topology, allowing only the device holding the token to transmit data, thus avoiding collisions. We played Doom and Quake.

I remember getting a copy of linux from my friends at a local LAN party (though it was tokenring party for us) around ‘96. 2 floppy disks. I’m 99% sure it was slackware.

Yes, that’ll slow them down… they are obligated to delete everything too… yep, totally gonna do it.

+1 for cloudflare. But I don’t use their tunnel products, I just expose my ports to only their known IPs. With cloudflare you have a nice “free” waf in front with tls that points to a secure(nginx proxy) or unsecured docker container. Audiobookshelf is a great example. Is best to use their dns product too, for easy management of your public facing sites.

My divorce was the second best thing to happen to me. First was my Ex, informing me she was getting married again 4 more days). I will end up paying 8 months of alimony (maintenance) and no longer owe her anything ever again.
