Enterprise is close (no candy crush etc), but LTSC still rules supreme
Yeah, that looks terrible. I don’t think the trailer even got a facial expression from me
Maybe they think they have the one up on Apple this year and want to lead rather than follow.. I hope it is something exciting, even though I am an iPhone user. Any innovation is great though I am guessing it will be AI related
I just added the curses to the normal text replacement settings in IOS and I have never had a ducking problem
I am not a stock market person, but why wouldn’t something like this be seen as something that could be manipulated by donors to create wealth that could be taken back out by selling stock? Ie.. some rich person buys stock as a ‘donation’ that makes the price shoot up, so then shares are sold and the cycle continues
I think I got online around 1995 when I went to an internet cafe and paid my $4 an hour to see what the fuss was about. I think I bought a modem on the way home and I was hooked. Back then there wasn’t really even a search engine, you went to a portal page.. then came basic search like altavista, excite then google.
There were tonnes of communities and web chats if IRC wasn’t your thing, then there was the wave of dedicated chat apps like ICQ, MSN Messenger etc
I have many fond memories of the internet before it became a vehicle for commerce
Why do they make sequels? Because they didn’t stuff it up the first time
I eventually got the GPU passed through to the VM.. it took about a day of following different guides. Then I tried the same thing on a container and it was about 3 mins work and it was in infinitely better experience with plex in a container instead of a vm
Mine was one of the first for our suburb, so they might have been a bit green, I am not sure. The bloke arrived and asked if someone had been here to do the underground lead in, nope... so he just did it above ground from the pole to a clamp on the side of the fascia board of the house.. I wish it had been underground, but whatevs... fibre
I have seen a few.. I started work at a young age as an apprenticeship painter for the railways, and when I was 16 I witnessed my first fatality and had to get down onto the track and cover the remainder of her body with a sheet, I saw another lady OD in a waiting door and have her boyfriend put her on the train and jump back off again, but I witnessed the OD… plus a couple of relatives
The trailer felt like I saw the whole movie
Many moons ago I worked in IT and telecoms providers would happily hand over plain text transcripts of SMS conversations. Blue bubbles for me
Love can hurt too.. I am going through a rough patch at the moment and I sometimes wish I never knew love because the pain of losing it is the worst pain in the world.. I don’t think that helps you much, but it is another side
School excursion upon release.. I don’t remember much as I was pretty young, but there are some scenes that are burned into my mind
yeah they do, they are just frothing as what that means for the bullshit that they peddle
At this point there is zero logical reason that cigarettes aren’t banned. The only logical reasons are that the government likes the $40/pack tax more than Australians dying, or big tobacco donations.. I am not advocating the ban of ciggies, it just makes zero sense to continue to go after vapes when turning a blind eye to the other ‘death maker’
I looked it up, Mars is 140million miles away.. pings would suck though
The answer is nearly going to always be ‘your data’ and loyalty
As population, we are just friggin idiots if there is one political power that destroys something to a point, and then they are voted out for the next party to rebuild it and have that cycle continue.. In Australia we have a similar problem with privatisation.. one party sells everything and the next party deals with the fallout and builds something else for that other party to sell
I guess it is his Toowoomba rape trial
I was having this conversation with my daughter and thought it was an interesting topic.
If an EMP or solar flare took out everything electronic in the whole world (permanently), how long do you think it would take for you to die, given your current location and circumstances.
I believe my daughter thinks we would live a lot longer than I do, but she is thinking about how long she can live without the internet while I am thinking the world will quickly descend into anarchy.
With no traditional forms of transport, so supplies would dry up, limited resources, health etc, law and order would be a challenge as things become more desperate.
I think I would live for about 3 months. I would try to get the family somewhere safe and remote and come back later, but I think most people would have the same idea.
