guess what just broke on my laptop after 2 years

I’m guessing it was the floppy drive?

My disaster recovery plan:

1. I plan on not having a disaster.

2. If I do have a disaster, I plan on trying to recover from it.

My biggest problem has been that the ink always dries up, since I don’t print very often, and a laser printer has solved that for me. Now, about 3 years later, the black toner is still at 90%, and still working reliably.

Could we stop with the viruses for a while, please? Just a few years is all I ask.

1000/1000 Mbps fiber for $43 in Denmark, no data cap.

I like how it basically generated the Ubisoft logo.

It’s the Scunthorpe problem.

Nothing’s more permanent than a temporary solution.

“No, it’s true, I swear! The coffee machines on our side can do both espresso and latte! And all the American barracks have 2-ply toilet paper! It used to be only 1-ply, but then last mo— What do you mean ‘this guy is useless’, I’ve just given you everything!”

Calckey sounds like a calculator/math/graphing application and Firefish sounds like another generic fork of Firefox.

They’re implying that all the posts must be astroturfing.

Kbin is tolerable in a mobile browser, but it actually becomes quite good once you decide to use Firefox on mobile and install the Tampermonkey addon along with some community userscripts to improve the functionality. Kbin is much younger than Lemmy, so it’s just playing catch-up right now.

On PC, I very much prefer Kbin’s user interface (but still with custom userscripts and a few minor changes to the theme I use).

I’m gonna get crucified for saying this, but… I write a lot of my scripts in PHP. It’s just a language that I’m very familiar with.

And with multiple sticks of RAM in use, that makes it RAID, right?

Right?

Some scientists create problems, others solve them.

With the amount of data I have, it takes Everything about 12 hours to re-index it all.

I currently run Everything in a Linux VM (running with Wine) that has my servers’ shares mounted read-only, but it stops running after a day or two every time. All in all, not very stable.

I’m looking for something better too.

The floss picks are too taut to be able to do that adequately.

The cheap ones I use do go a bit slack, but maybe that’s just because the plastic is cheap and soft.

It’s a lot more plastic waste, but have you tried those fancy plastic sticks with dental floss on, I believe they are called “dental floss picks” in English? Makes it quite easy to floss, and they can be bought bulk pretty cheap, at least where I live.

I mean, it’s insanely easy to avoid being crushed at the bottom of the ocean in a homemade discount sub that everyone has tried to warn you is unsafe

Tell me about it! I’ve been able to avoid it for 30 years, and I haven’t even really been trying that hard!
