They look like some teenager were too eager with the slider during character creation.

Ah the good old days when mplayer was needed to handle the partially corrupt divx files on 800mb CD-Rs with missing I-frames, and audio sync issues right and left.

I hope it’s patented so we can just avoid Logitech.

Pentium 4 those were the days, super fast CPU, that was 5 years ago right…

I don’t have a problem with Java, and you can get Oracle free versions of Java.

JavaScript on the other hand is a blight as you say.

JavaScript’s real name is ECMAScript.

Approaching? I would say kiosk mode PC consoles started with Xbox and then PS4 joined the group, Nintendo is what’s left.

They want the best con artists.

40 years in the field you say, and how old are you?

Stillgar: Lisan Al Gaib!

It’s voices all the way down!

If the AI can design and build a bridge in two days, the AI should also be able to secure the finances in a day!

Makes sense Mastodon and Lemmy use two different “languages” for posts.

I’m just spitballing here, but what if some instances had SSO for both Mastodon and Lemmy so you could do both ways of communication.

Where did you find that? They may be right if it’s a closed fork, but if it’s from something on GitHub i can’t see how it violates GPL?

Edit: just scrolled a bit down and saw another comment, with the full image, nvm.

All those closings and new launches also helps with reducing that pesky user base, get burnt a few times by Google and Microsoft looks much better.

First of all if you solve problems that means you know enough of the subject to reason out the solution, it may not be perfect but very few solutions are.

I have been working on legacy code and maintaining old c++ code for a decade (200.000 loc) and most of the time I had to spend days debugging and reading code just to understand enough to get a possible solution, and then I still end up writing a solution that breaks in a different corner case that I never could have imagined.

So yes most of the time you feel like you don’t know anything, but over time you end up knowing a lot of how that codebase works. And after two years you must have picked up something about what you are working on.

Then you have those programming language genius colleagues, that know all the tips and tricks of a language, I use them to get ideas on solutions, because they always have an opinion on what is the “right” way of doing stuff.

That’s just my 2 cents.

I meant to write 3.5" floppy drives, and yes the 3.5" and 2.5" form factors are still going strong, even if the NVMe’s probably will reduce the use of 2.5"

They sadly don’t have 3.5" [floppy] drives anymore, and both the ISA and PCI busses are nowhere to be found 😔

I used pcpartpicker for my latest build it’s a good help when assembling and can help avoid those incompatible parts.

Because it’s much more interesting to learn the important content or what people think is contained in an article by heated discussions than reading it.

The bane of Lemmy searches, or the medal of “My query was not specific enough”.
