They have a browser plug-in. I use it on Firefox on my desktop and on my Android phone. My uses it on Chrome on both as well.
I started using Kagi. Yeah, I have to pay for it. But we’re paying for Google too, kagi is just more honest about how.
To be fair a hotplate could play games better than a p4 and do it while staying cooler.
Isn’t it more like a network of several billion dumb computers?
I have a box with 10 old laptops that I keep around, just for that. Unreal tournament 2004, Insane, Brood Wars and all the Id classics. I don’t get to set it up a lot, but when I do it’s always a hit.
That joke takes me back. Had to double check if I was on slashdot.
👌
Aluminum then?
But it’s not greed! It’s increasing share holder value! /s
The entire selling point of cable was no signal loss and ad free… Then the point of satellite was more options and ad free. Those sneaky ads keep finding their way in.
Another Rider user. I write mainly backed code, and integrations etc. Work is Rider and Datagrip on windows. Home is Debian KDE with Rider and Datagrip. I love it. If only I can convince my it group to allow Debian on my work computer.
Same. It was a good read though. Getting old sucks for everyone, but I can’t help but feel like we grew up in a particularly magical time where you can remember dial phones all the way through smart phones. It kind of set the wow factor baseline a little high. I don’t know if other people in history have had a similar experience, but I kinda doubt it.
I’ve been using an open garage device I ordered from https://opengarage.io/ for years. It works great with home assistant or by itself. (their opensprinkler control is great too)
Loved the wobbly windows
I had textbooks in college (25 years ago) that always had little blurbs about the acronyms and their pronunciation. GUI, we were instructed, was pronounced gooey. WYSIWYG is wiz-ee-wig, etc. It was on tests IIRC.
Yeah, strong feelings of deja vue.
It’s kind of like hiring a bunch of physicists to design a bridge. It’ll probably be a great bridge, but also probably overly complex, expensive and late. And for some reason made out of a novel alloy.
Seriously, I’m so glad to be out.
