Does Tesla do any real usability testing? Or is it strictly yes-man grab ass and fanboys? /capacitive/ turn signals without even haptic feedback? How the fuck did that get through initial design? How is that even legal? With the

Tried it under Rosetta2 or whatever it is called?

I love that one!

OH! Omg. I read that as ReFS and not “reference” lol. Case I’m using is a SC743TQ-1200B-SQ I love it. I have 6 more of them that I use for various things (3 are dedicated to my plex cluster).

going forward I will either be using ReFS or ZFS. It will depend on what OS I decide to leave on this new build.

That's why I still use a ~15 year old Supermicro server chassis with desktop foot kit on it lol. I've upgraded the innards 2 or 3 times so far. Has 8 hotswap bays, tons of room. no fucking RGB or "windows" or any of that

ah. Well then, my "little later" is probably multiple hours as, as my wife puts it, I have "time blindness" lol.

What’s the time out on being able to edit posts? Because every time I think to go edit one more than 60 seconds later the option seems to be gone.

I actually thought about that after I had typed it and left it for awhile. WOOPS

True. I think it’s on the surface. BUT THATS JUST WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT in that universe XD jazz hands

Probably. But that’s not as fun of an answer! :)

No one has mentioned Andy Weir’s “Hail Mary” yet?? :) fun book with “astrophages”.

Not to cause any arguments or anything but comparing an Apple Intel laptop go their new ARM units isn’t a great comparison because I swear apple started thermally gimping them several years before releasing the M1s to make them look even

Yes, but then it’s not considered unexplained anymore :) Also I didn’t have the luxury of waiting.

Ok this is ridiculously entertaining. Thanks!

I did convert it to cash. The problem is in the US you can’t suddenly have thousands of unexplained dollars when getting a mortgage or similar. I guess I should have clarified: I didn’t directly give them crypto. I was using it to cash ou

Same. I’m one of those lucky few who had futzed with BTC in 2011 when it was almost brand new and then forgot about it till 2019 when it started spiking. I spent two weeks digging through boxes and imaging hard drives before miraculously fi

This is a surprisingly well written /book/. Thanks for the link. I used to do game save file hacking on palmOS as a teen. Was a hoot. Eventually turned to full blown “cracking” of software. That was a fun hobby.

I’ll take it off your hands if you want it to get some use :p

Ditto. The people who get off on unregulated things irritate me. Regulation came about for a reason. It’s not just to control you and make the rich richer. It’s also to help prevent exactly the sort of thing FTX did.

I believe it requires a 32bit clean ROM, but, yeah, you can. Lemme dig up some links. edit https://www.reddit.com/r/VintageApple/comments/sonmyl/se30_m... https://charlieharrington.com/

This is so cool. I spend a lot of my downtime at work reading old technical papers and research papers. Great way to relax between server upgrades and wire runs lol

What’s really fun is you can upgrade the SE/30 to 128Mb

Considering it had a modem, could have an Ethernet module added, had official Web Browser Discs, had official Keyboard and Mouse accessories (I have all of these except the darn Ethernet module)… I think they were. Or at least a “web TV” -e

Right? A lot of people will start going on about how modern OSes “do more” blah blah but a lot of that is complete hokum. Imo it’s the endless layers of abstraction and frameworks on top of frameworks getting in the way. It’s hard to get

MacOS/OSX has long had insanely slow updating. It’s always bothered me. The time estimator on the installers for it are not even suggestions.

Lol. This gets rediscovered every few years. Pretty funny. Slowest I’ve run any modern OS on an x86 chip would probably be about 60mhz pentium 1. I used to daily drive Ubuntu (I think 5.04?) with Beryl and Compiz on a pentium 75 with 512mb
