Open terminal on BBC micro to mainframe in university campus, ftp to ftp.funet.fi, patiently wait for 6 hours while a single jpeg of (hopefully!) Cindy Crawford in her skivvies downloads to mainframe. Then download using zmodem for another hour to local computer. Save on floppy, back to dorm room, to find out it’s corrupted. 😂👍
Hopefully there’s a useful website under the ad spam. I need to install an ad blocker on this mobile Lemmy app 🤔
So I should include the 4 Saturdays I worked as a 6’2 tall Kid Vid (the short lived burger king mascot) in 1993 in Crawley Town centre (and scared a lot of kids because I was WAY TOO TALL - the costume was designed for a 5’4 girl), because it’s relevant experience to my 30 year career in it consultancy. Gotcha
I took what came out of the box, very much factory default here. My offspring are figuring it out at the minute, Imma let them cook.
But the CEO’s third luxury yacht? What about that?
30s are rookie numbers. I’m 52 and still game regularly. I started out playing pong clones in about 1975 hooked up to my tv. I played a lot of zx spectrum games in the 80s, failed my degree in the early 90s because I spent far far far too long playing civ1 on my Amiga. Etc etc.
Emily wrote this one and you can tell she was on fire. Really good video.
I honestly hope they don’t do another dumb Linux challenge. Linus and Luke both have pre-prepared excuses why a conversion to Linux will fail, for them personally. Stuff like “we can’t run Photoshop” level shit. Dumb “no shit Sherlock” type nonsense.
That means they won’t actually try, they’ll just “do it for the content” and give up again after a month or whatever. The videos will be well done but will ultimately conclude that “Linux still isn’t ready for us” and they’ll leave a bitter taste in any real Linux user’s mouth, because their excuses will be pathetic and the efforts put in will be demonstrably minimal.
I’ve seen a few people who run proxmox on the bare metal with k8s running inside VMs, or containers, inside proxmox. I’m not sure if I should just go full bare metal k8s or have the proxmox (or other?) intermediate layer…
Not seen that one before, but I’m familiar with the concept. I’m working on something for myself that’ll go into our will prep when we finally get around to it.
I met my wife on ICQ in 1998.
Sounds like he’s well qualified to be the first king of the USA. He’s got everything. A ridiculous family tree, he’s loony, he’s corrupt, he’s bankrupt. All hail king Trump the first!
King Donald the first of America

I used to hear tv tubes, power supplies and all sorts of high frequency noise. These days I mostly just hear tinnitus. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Sleeping. Woke up one day to frozen shoulder. Two years of physio and it’s still not right. Fucking aging. Being 50+ sucks arse.
The mkbhd first impressions were fascinating for what he didn’t say. I’m guessing that he didn’t want to burn the good times he has with Tesla so he really seemed to be trying to positively spin everything. At least, that’s my interpretation. The mirrors were particularly… https://youtu.be/XxOh12Uhg08?si=jlfuFU70v5cGd8HV
Going to suggest the folding ideas YouTube channel on the same topic.

Spoiler: his hypothesis, well supported in my opinion, is that a large proportion of those formerly in flat earth are now neck deep in qanon, and since the film was made many are now into other conspiracy stuff. The election was fake etc.
Also, his video of minnewanka lake is just perfect flat earth debunking.
If an app gives me more than a couple of unwanted notifications that I can’t easily disable, it’s uninstalled. Fuck that shit.
