How do we assess that it's "still likely good" and "still better than nothing"? If they are defective it also means that they might make things worse.

Cartridges I can understand, as they are hardware, but why floppy disks? It's just data and it's better to back them up to a more reliable format anyway.

Also people don't always interview when they are jobless. If you are already employed with a salary of $0.9X, gambling between $X and $1.25X makes perfect sense.

Unless someone else makes an equivalent product and sell it for $14/year, and every user switches to the new product, this statement is moot. A product justifies its price tag as long as people are willing to buy it at that price. Reve

You mean ssh'ing into the remote server, then pulling image from local? That would require your local host to be accessible from the remote host, or setting up some kind of ssh tunneling.

If you are happy with bzip2-level compression, you could also use `ssh -C` to enable automatic gzip compression.

I think "vibe coding" will not replace developers in the short term, but it will be the strongest competition for such simple systems. I asked a few LLMs to make apps like these (plain HTML with embedded JS), and they got it right

Sure, I was joking. I haven't used anything that's more recent than Fortran 77 (Fortran 90 was a thing, but WATFOR didn't support it, so we had to stick with the older spec). I'm sure it's more enjoyable now. To be

Disgusting. By your logic high income countries should cut funding for leukemia research and spend the money for increasing fertility as that would result in a net increase in the number of children.
