My understanding is that by the time the second iteration came around, the AIM Alliance had been formed and Motorola simply abandoned the 88k and started focusing on PowerPC. If NeXT hadn’t killed their hardware division in 93, the RISC Wor

Without a Jobs-esque foot, the bozos have nothing to fear. They flourish and spread, gain power by impressing other bozos, and push out anyone with half a brain. MobileMe’s devs were brought into an auditorium for a dressing down that inclu

Timmy is too worried about the goddamn stock price for that. They could easily just transition to a company that isn’t promising stupid growth every quarter and just pays fat dividends on a portion of the profits.

Actual terminal-based TUIs sure, they have small character sets burned into ROM, sized for 50-years-ago prices. Modern terminals, even the text-based console on a fresh minimal Arch linux install, is going to support Unicode probably withou

I still have a bunch of .piv files on a CD backup I burned on my PC right before I switched to an iMac G5 in the summer of 2007. I should fire Pivot again and reminisce. If I recall correctly, they were absolutely crude and incredibly poorl

"Extremely Expensive"? I can get an Archer BE3600 from my local Microcenter for $90. Comcast is sending 6E/7 capable router/AP combos to customers with fast enough connection speeds.

I can’t take this advice too seriously if you really think GNOME3 is more polished than Windows or macOS. Both of the latter have gotten worse over the years undoubtedly but GNOME3 is fundamentally flawed and bad.

I have a PC on the other side of my wall from where I'm sitting with a 7800X3D and an nvidia 4090. It's for gaming only most of the time, though I do take advantage of the 4090 for some basic LLM stuff, mostly for local audio tran

$75 for a font is pretty good I thought . I’ve found some other fonts I’d love to use for twice the price, or more, with more restrictive licensing.

Also, LLMs are good at spitting out filters, but you can learn what they do by going and then looking up what it’s doing in the docs. They often apply things in far more interesting and complex ways than the docs at jqlang.org do, which are
