meanwhile Mozilla bails on fedi

hardly knew ya

not making money. make windows a gui on top of linux. like osX. silly microsoft

reminds me of the last time I had to remember that dir/copy/move with backslashes. dad’s insurance ‘software’. always amazed me how computer users get stuck in a way of doing things. print mail

All 1000 scanned ports on 146.70.168.154 are in ignored states. Not shown: 1000 filtered tcp ports (no-response)

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 26.88 seconds

nice to have choices. new users are better off with a polished install so they can get back to scrolling. takes work to do some desktops. ran a minimal thing for years at work. forget the name.

it really is comforting to know you can do 99% of stuff you want with PCs without a license from Microsoft. FOSS has its own headaches but at least you don’t have to wade through a PR swamp to fix stupid bugs

reminds me of the DMCA form letters. full of scary empty threats. paid legal dept. earning their keep. mgmt doesn’t realize the freely developed stuff makes their products more desirable when it does a better job than their own software. may they flounder in ignorance

whose trauma? think it’s a two way critique

analytics and local logs. apache stats. been years since I cared

dev’d an online course web app and website for a community college. users/activity was very cyclic. could see the hits going up every Sunday night as students tried to catch up before Monday class. usage normally dropped around weekends/holidays. maybe similar surges depending on time of day.

I hired into a community college IT dept ~2000. Manager told me they were a Windows shop. Ha np. I proceeded to replace 3/4 of their server room with Linux. email, cd servers, file servers, web servers, db2, PeopleSoft(gack!). I was working on a cs degree which they paid for about half

replaced a $20,000 cd rack with 15 cd drives + windows os for network sharing, with a desktop PC running redhat(bureaucracy wanted a support contract). Ripped all their cds w/ dd bash script I wrote for automating add/delete cds for the non-cli types.

doze: first accept this ula and new embedded ads

my bill has gone up 89%

he sees you when you’re sleeping. he knows when you’re awake

I thank win95 lockups for pushing me into linux.

buy one, live in it, buy another, rent one. not usually a job, already have one thanks.

Windows 95;

bought my first Gateway PC when Windows 95 came out. Lockups every day drove me to Slackware install from a dozen floppy set I d/l’d. Mac OS 8.*/9 was no better. OS-10 brought apple back from the dead. wanted to buy stock, was/am poor

contributed a comma in some obscure Gentoo pkg to fix a compile error I had. think it was a 1 line dif. yw

actual BSoD on my win11 yesterday. a… bar?
