As a MySpace fan, I don't want it back at all. Can we stop this rehashing of memories and come up with something new? Great for its time, but with the way the internet is, it will just turn in to another toxic echo chamber. Next up: To

Mood. It's not just over-seas. With a domestic courier they still use dark-ui to hide the tracker link via "shop".

Yes it does. Just read up on Mozilla. Mozilla receives the vast majority of its funding—roughly $400 million annually from Google Mozilla has made announcements regarding transforming Firefox into an AI-heavy browser and have started aliena

Great, but you've put it on an image host that cannot be accessed by the me, in the UK.

Of course. I saw the /s and I was conjoining the rhetorical with an example.

Then you get government censorship. China for example.

I'll agree to disagree; on this. It's moot at this point. I do however respect your view. Zfs, rSync were just basic examples but where you need to schedule OS commands, zfs snapshots, sync or other system utilities Bash will alwa

> We have vastly better tools now in those niches. But do we? I'll beg to differ. Python explodes in to LoC when you try to attempt to work with the OS. You need to source modules that turn the application in to bloat. 98% of def&#x

When I have drive past the course, I always have the urge to pee. One day I'll get out and take a piss on the green.

And what would you recommend for a system automation script 20 years ago, when I was 13 and discovered Linux for the first time? Perl comes close and it's one of my favourite languages. Even back then it was archaic. Maybe we can agree

Fraudulent minority too. Let's not forget Elon Musk was paying folk to vote for.

Beacon CRS was also exploited, I wonder if related somehow.

Overwatch too, but it got boring after a while and their matchmaking was atrocious.

Single player maybe, but that's nothing compared to the likes of UT or Quake.

Eh, "boomer shooters" died along side with Halo and LAN parties. Minecraft was the final nail in the coffin. The knack and knowledge of hosting a dedicated server required skills. If you could one click button host a Quake 3 Arena

According to current internet theory, these are bots.

I agree with this. The same goes for subscription cars. Default on the monthly payments and they take it away. If you purchased a rust bucket of a car, you own it and if it all goes south you still have a roof over your head.

Yeah, pretty much. They provide the devkit hardware, the specification technical documentation and the tool chain to compile the binary.

Cloudflare is just another corporation with greed in their eyes and if you don't design yourself to their puzzle than you're not welcomed. This is an extra wall in walled garden land; another one you will need to jump if you want

The UK's "sugar tax" too have ruined most drinks. Most have been replaced with aspartame or sucrose. It doesn't even come near to how it used to taste. That and palm oil. I miss the old Irn Bru which was something like 8

I'm not saying you should, but cheap laser pens can do fair damage to a camera CMOS sensor. I discovered that with my Sony Ericsson k700i with a laser pointer when trying to take a picture of the laser.

Emulation. Tons upon tons of games just sitting there. Your kid isn't going to know what it was like to play it back then, throw them the classics and sigh in relief knowing that's he's not being tricked in to corporate explo

Not sure it's possible because dotCom is owned by verisign and designated to the internet root servers. Your ISP, ISP Peering DNS, and any other DNS service would override any of your DNS zones. It does make me wonder if I hosted my ow

Because they can; it's a racket. Like paid SSL certificates, all of it is corporate greed. One solution is running your own DNS servers. This way you can list your own TLD's. However good luck in convincing others to change their

Thanks to Brexit, I lost my .eu domains. This really pissed me off. Maybe it's a good thing we are all afraid to visit any other tld other than dotCom.

That, and while you're scavenging for the remaining parts of technology you can always question: But, can it play Crysis?
