   I think discord/slack/teams seem to have shaken up the IM market recently.

   I remember when they shut down TOC. I think that was close to the time it was renamed gaim to pidgin. My whole college career surrounded aol away messages. One time I put an away message of “Dave Matthew’s coming to play at our school. Cli

   The paid version of plex has much better tagging. I bought it about 8 years ago $75. Well worth it

   There is a —force though. I had to do it once because they thought I got a bad cert (don’t remember the details)

   Plex isn’t terrible for music. They have specific music clients now https://plexamp.com/

   You can at least put something in its way and if it nopes around it to avoid a collision that’s pretty freaking interesting.

   I think the comment was poorly worded with “people” and should be “life” which is still an interesting thought.

    I think it’s wonderful they way it is. Code is gpl so tons of ports. But because of this more people buy the game so they get money.

    You can set the swapiness of both systems if you want for it to be true. Modern SSDs won’t last a second longer without a swap and now a days of swap files there’s really no excuse to not have one.

    Is it just me or does it feel like in the past 5-7 years it doesn't really make that much of a difference when new CPUs come out? My laptop is a i7-4800MQ and it still feels incredibly snappy. Anything I need to do for work I just fa

    Well it occasionally leaves me desk :) also I like the small footprint. It’s mainly my “work at home check the news” laptop so I can keep my work laptop 100% work. I don’t even check the weather on it.

    W540 here. Never leaves my desk so who cares it’s a tank. 32 gigs of ram quad core i7 and super zippy.

    Take a look at the de10 nano. Crazy good board for the price. No OSS tool chain though.

    judging by other open source reverse engineerd GPU drivers its a massive undertaking. i also looked at a shot of the chip and see lots of neural networking functionality, i wonder what sort of special drivers stuff like that needs. i just

    I wasn’t a huge net hack fan but I had half a dozen mud accounts on all the local BBSs. I was quite the ladies man. Eagle Scout band dork BBS MUD man.

    I’m a contractor and currently “work” for a FAANG on a 3 year contract. I love it. Learning a bunch. Seeing their internal processes will change how I work. But I’m still free (after 3 years)

    I used a 486 66dx2 until 2001 when I went to college. FreeBSD was by far and away the winner on that thing. Had 20 megs of RAM and a 2.2 gig hard drive. Ran X and WordPerfect and Netscape in Linux compatibility better than natively in Slack

    Domain and cert are visa. So at least you know you are talking to Visa so it’s not really entirely random.

    It’s such a weird wrong sentence to throw in the article. I’m just confused how they got that incorrect tidbit and how no editor didn’t go “hmm I wonder if that is right”

    Not sure what you mean by “any” it certainly has texture ram but to a fault too little so n64 textures are notoriously crumby.

    Linux has debuggers and such and people (like me) are way more familiar with its stack than whatever they had back in the day. Software development would be way easier with all of that a support infrastructure.

    I never thought about it but one day AI will port itself to another device. That’s a crazy thought.
