  • What is your oldest living presence on the World Wide Web?

    Jump

  • I’m with you there. I still have my cringe edgy 1998 Hotmail login that has morphed into the credentials for all my Microslop dealings, I never use it for mail, but I have unfortunately had to give it to people professionally during some azure related training and onsite sales pitches.

  • What's your self-hosting success of the week?

    Jump

  • This week I saw my 3 machine cluster flailing trying to stay online, digging around identified it as an issue with communication with my NAS. It was running NFS3 and so I swapped that to NFS4.1 and did some tuning and now my services have never been faster!

  • The three archetypes

  • The 1800s would refute the first claim, Hughes for the second, and wasn’t starship supposed to already have landed on the moon by now? His vision is knowing a sucker when he sees one.

  • digital subscriber line foolishness

    Jump

  • I’m on fiber and my provider being a dusty DSL provider decided to use PPPoE over fiber. I got migrated to their sibling company which supposedly doesn’t need that nonsense, but they haven’t removed the requirement yet and I might need an entirely different NID for it. It’s all horribly annoying

  • What are some of your favorite songs in a language you do not speak?

    Jump

  • I often take little exploratory searches for some of my favorite genres in foreign languages, though the ones I remember the most tend to split between English and the other language. Stuff like Tomcraft and Sido

    Metal Band-maid

    bloodywood

    Just some incredible and fun music out there when you explore the world.

  • YouTube adds new hurdles for ad blockers, and there's currently no way around it

    Jump

  • Same here, been using premium since it was bundled with google music when that was a thing. Aside from the creators sponsors, I never received a single ad as long as I was signed in properly to my account.

  • Do you like working from home? Yes or no, gimme some reasons.

    Jump

  • I love my wfh arrangement, my workplace is trying to go back to hybrid with higher percentage onsite, thankfully/unfortunately I have some chronic illnesses that prevent me from coming into the office without putting my health at risk, so full remote I stay and I crush every developer story they give me so they are plenty pleased

  • Work smarter, not harder

    Jump

  • Pretty sure they must be related, considering yes radio shack sold that stuff as well, and they sold Tandy computers

  • Have you ever seen a man with a face like that?

    Jump

  • The bearded image looks like Tim Allen

  • I think the last one is that she lacks Vision, cause Vision got killed

  • US political divisions according to a Japanese newspaper

  • Just got back from Alaska, my 2nd kid was born, my wife got her first job in her career field, had to vacate a house that I was rent to own due to a busted foundation and being at the bottom of the hill so got super flooded and found black mold in the basement. Played a crap ton of halo 3. Started work at a NOC after completing my associates. Wasn’t a terrible year just a couple snags. I think my wife became disabled from her maladies at the end of this year as well. Things got pretty scary in the following year for us.

  • Windows 7

    Jump

  • Everyday is a Linux party here! Been running gentoo for like 20 years on my server box, which has now grown a couple more boxes in swarm config and my wife’s machine is now mint.

  • Windows 7

    Jump

  • For me I think I enjoyed 98, XP, 7 it was nearly Star Trek rules every other edition was ok. 7 was the culmination of the best of. But absolute shit ever since. Honestly wish I could just go back to 7 for anything that requires windows( I try to stay away from it whenever possible)

  • Windows 7

    Jump

  • Funny enough I got 7 ultimate for free by having a Microsoft themed Tupperware party and using their party invite platform. They sent me a box with free copy and ms colored streamers and windows 7 napkins. I still have the napkins new and sealed. Had to take like 4 pictures with my friends around a laptop I think. Not a bad trade for the best version of 7. I don’t think they’d ever get people to do the same for the newer OS’s. 7 was one of the good ones

  • I just lost my ATI X1950XT yesterday after I bumped it installing a replacement HDD into my home servers raid cluster. RIP 20 year old GPU, you had a commendable service life

  • I sorted some screws today

    Jump

  • So either degenerate elder millennials or the S has been passed on to the next generation lol. There is hope for the youth yet!

  • I sorted some screws today

    Jump

  • Ah yes the cool S a relic of the late 1900’s along with Soap shoes and Discman

  • SHUT UP CORPORATE AMERICA I DONT CARE

    Jump

  • Yeah that is a common loophole in the TOS of most businesses, if you are their customer they have a legal reason to continue direct marketing to you. It sucks.
