The 8088 was produce to 1998 and 80186 was produced all the way to 2007.

They may not been mainstream, but they certainly existed in production to run linux.

I could also be rich as trump if… my daddy was a wealthy slumlord.

“You have to work your way up! If your stuck at the bottom, it is because you didnt pull your bootstraps hard enough!”

Engraving one with “if you read this, your gay lmao” does suggest they are just being edgy.

Wouldnt suprise me if they made a greentext just before.

Unix was developed in 1969. MS-DOS (from where Windows inherits its baggage) was developed in 1981. And DOS was basically a clone of CP/M developed in 1974.

So I dont see why windows would be designed with line printers in mind when its younger than unix. Its even more strange because CP/M and DOS were “microcomputer” OS and unlikely to ever operate a teletyper, while unix was primarily a mainframe OS that certainly would be operating a teletyper.

Then you have MacOs being a weirdo and just using CR.

Clippy wasnt a bad idea, especially in an era where computers were just becoming mainstream. But just like most microsoft’s products, the poor implementation made it useless and annoying…

Your’s booted to a command line? Mine boots to C64 Basic.

Validation should just check if it has a @ and send an email and wait for a response… because who knows if mailservers “respect” the spec anyway.

Humans should test their shit on themselves or on some other human that they can explain the risks to and agree compensation

And medical research would grind to a halt. As unfortunate of relying on these creatures is, their fast growth, short lived, and rapid reproduction cycle makes them perfect for all kinds of research.

Enter capcasin. Mammals find it intolerable (except for one subset of a goofy bipedal species), but birds love that shit.

I know someone with a dog that loves jalapenos. So its not just us.

Democrats are the brakes and the republicans are the accelerator. But the steering wheel is stuck turning right and very few has any incentive to turn the wheel. And Trump is like “what if we just remove the brakes?”

Very big difference the fact the app can continue tracking rather or not you ever login via a browser. Atleast with a browser, it can be contained.

You can just use the website. No need for their spyware app.

My biggest issues other than privacy concerns is the fact corpations can turn your devices into paperweights over night by just turning off their servers.

The process still exists, its just limited to rare environments, and will never be the scale as it once was.

The amount they collect is far more than the operating costs. But theres a hidden benefit… market visibility. Thats the true value that makes it worth valve’s high fees.

This list is incomplete. You can help by expanding It.

Ordinary discs are terrible for long term storage. You need to use special discs designed to resist disc rot, like M-disc or Sony’s ODA. It wouldnt trust random discs more than 10 years from manufacturing

You can make the same argument if the dev pays someone on fiver to type in some random crap and not proofread their work. But atleast it’s not AI^tm, right? Low effort is still low effort no matter the source.

Right… like how hard is it not crash a ship into a bridge? Even good stewards have accidents. So if there something better and less destructive to the environment, it should be strongly prefered.
