Damn... I can't believe I didn't consider that. A thing to remember, thank you!

Intel didn't care. They dabbled into it with XScale, at a time the best mobile ARM processors, then gave up and sold the whole thing. Shortsighted, should've kept at it.

VAIO used to be a symbol of quality and status, as well. Really great laptops, how did Sony let them get so bad... They sold the brand, too.

I don't know what kind of nostalgic glasses people wear, but CRT TV quality degraded over time, became noticeably blurry. Had Panasonics, Sony, JVC, all looked like shit. Monitors with degaussing were fixable for a short time.

That's... Insane. I've got 3 Samsung CRTs and a Benq collecting dust for more than a decade. No one gives a flying fuck about them here, could probably get a dozen more for like 10 dollars each...

This was a long time ago (7-10 years), but 1and1, Hetzner, OVH, HostGator, LiquidWeb did not allow IRC hosting. They were the cheapest, tbf. I only use Linode now, haven't looked into it.

I don't care either way, but they'll have to switch to something else at some point, cause the numbers will look ridiculous. Firefox 157... Firefox 349... Firefox 1071 Intel's processor names already look ridiculous to me. Co

I wonder where you host it? Every other hosting provider does not allow IRC servers, what a shame.

So, have the bottom cover be the heatsink? That actually sounds brilliant. HP thinned the ZBook series by turning everything upside down and having the bottom be just a dumb panel instead of the main frame. Sadly they, once again, used a st

It's sad that this is the norm. Aluminum is cheap, a bigger heatsink in a regular laptop (not Ultrabook) should cost what, a dollar more? Yet laptops are never designed for full load for hours. Just "mainstream" use. Even bus

I'll add to that, people in that region eat plenty of vegetables and fruit... during summer and autumn. But fast/street food is mostly meat, potatoes, cheese, anything that can be sold all year round. That reminds me of British mu

Here's the secret: few in the first world consider developing countries. No one cares about the brain drain (it's just people choosing where to live, right? lol) or their non-competitiveness due to rules imposed by first world cou

Yep, had flashbacks of PATA configuration problems, as well :D

Oh you bet Pipes was a godsend for anyone gaming Google SERPs at the time!

Ah yeah, the sky tube. Funny how you all focused on the "maybe underground" part.

Prices are ridiculous, though, compared to England (except London)!

If this was a real thing, I'd say building bridges/roads above the city would be the only viable (yet extremely difficult) solution. Maybe underground in some places. Would look pretty dystopian probably

They should be better regulated, but companies have been big for centuries, few come close to the power held by companies in various colonies.

Oh no, there was no identity theft. Just a jobless man cashing in on his credit score.

Why? A fraction of that will buy you even better positive press.

Well he's not you, so he's keeping 1.7 billion. No one cares at large. Investors actually respected Shkreli, and the masses don't even remember who that is. Just cover your legal bases lol

Hey, it's the bank's fault they approved a 20K credit limit without even checking my ID. They should've done their due diligence beyond seeing the credit score /s

That's only for exalted characters with nice hats and beards. If you want to run MacOSX legally without risking a lawsuit from Apple (they even went after a repair shop, FFS), you must use their hardware, as per the license agreement.

Yeah,they will just disappear. You may be able to get save games, maybe . OnLive (which was great, btw) just went poof, gone.

Oh, I'm sorry for pointing out the fact that speech recognition wants outbound access through the firewall even on Cortana-less LTSC. That must be so hurtful! Please forgive me, I'm on your side, I don't even vaccinate!
