It wasn’t a good joke, almost hit back instead of submitting, but oh well.
(I actually even run cachy on one box. It’s an interesting system. Works well.)


Oh, I’d actually forgotten how flaky 3.5" floppies were. That’s very true.
A 5.25" you could probably send in a letter and stick the letter on a fridge with a magnet so your remember to mail it and it would still work when it arrived.

That’s just fedora with extra steps.


Oh, every windows has fucked itself up silently. 95 was famous for needing a reboot at every mouse movement and a reinstall regularly.

There’s not a lot of software in that size class, deps included. Browsers are some of the most ludicrously complex, heavy, buggy and messy badly specified heaps of software in existence. Mostly because of the way the web is and was plus microslop.
And they are used to parse and even execute tons of hostile script and media.
The number of bugs remaining must be astounding as is the bugs that have been going and fixed.


So, they want a kernel rootkit and an “AI” (which has plausible deniability) on your machine…


And always pick DRM free.


You just run with a stretcher underneath to make the two bounces to the ambulance.
