Where did xmms go, by the way?
Oh no, you!


Where did xmms go, by the way?


Does sshd count?
Beyond the “default” stuff, I always seem to end up with a setup that involves linux + apache + mod_perl + postgresql for various purposes. And by the way, that’s the only proper LAMP stack in my book, and I will die on this hill.


Sounds like the name of a colab album between Weird Al and HIM
The only difference I’ve noticed between left and right is whether that place is officially referred to as Majorstuen or Majorstua. As a state certified bygdetulling who used to live there, it is my firm belief that the latter is correct. This is a hill I will certainly not die on, so whatever…
I’m seriously interested. Where can I learn more about this?
Is there somewhere online where I can play this?
I like both chess and variation…

Yes, the meeting might result in the same plan you made forever ago. But now everyone knows what, how, and why. The meeting wasn’t called because your idea was shit, it was to bring everyone up to speed.
I’ve done some very dodgy things with VGA cables in an effort to route the cables through narrow bulkheads. For normal computer-to-monitor-lengths this is probably fine.
I haven’t noticed much signal degradation below 4m-ish.
At 12m, you better solder properly and wrap some extra shielding around your splice.

Normally it doesn’t matter. The only restrictions is in terms of who can buy domains of that country to begin with (some countries have restrictions on that), and what sort of content is allowed in such domains. Other than that, it’s OK.
Jeg bestilte mine fra rakwireless.com. De er kjent for å være trege til å levere, men jeg er en tolmodig gubbe.
Norway: Pretty chill, at least in my corner of the country; squeezed in between three mountains and a fjord.
My biggest concern these days is that I was supposed to go down to Saudi Arabia for some work stuff, but that’s been put on hold due to… stuff you may have heard of…
The news cycle is kind of repetitive because of a douchebag who is related to royalty is on trial. Nobody cares, lock him up if he’s found guilty, that’s all. I guess it’s a sign that there’s not much newsworthy happening.
On a more personal level, I’m waiting for my meshtastic radios to arrive so I can put up some routers on nearby summits and see if I can reach the next tiny town over. No reason other than toying around with it, really.
With geology like this, I have no idea how they manage to supply gigabit internet to my house. But I guess once you’re used to digging tunnels for basic infrastructure, running a fiber isn’t that big of a deal. My basement homelab enjoys the results either way.
Day-to-day life isn’t exciting. But it’s safe and secure; the good kind of boring.


Used to do this in payphones as a kid. The numpads were disabled when no coins were inserted, effectively disabling tone dialing. But pulse dialing still worked.


Plus I would assume a dog wouldn’t have to write a masters dissertation?
I’d tell you a joke about brown dwarves, but it’s kinda dark…


Introducing the next generation of OS: Microsoft OS AINTTM
Combines the best features of NT with an AI agent that offloads everything onto onedrive. Requires an internet connection and a Microsoft account to boot, but that’s OK; once the kernel and the drivers are loaded, you can spend two hours in a dos prompt to be able to load files locally


I have to reluctantly agree with you - It was interesting to actually see events only alluded to in the others


Not that proud, as it’s a fairly trivial IT thing with niche elements. “Anyone” could do it, but there are so many different elements, all of which are trivial separately, that there aren’t a whole lot of people in the world who can do what I do because of the odd combinations.
So while my work is (mysterious and) important for the particular industry I’m in,I’m sure any IT geek with networking and linux experience could do it after a few years of training.
As for importance, kinda. The higher-ups consider it important enough to grant me every demand I stated when they tried to poach me from my previous employer. I was looking for an excuse to turn them down, but they agreed to everything. For example, my contract stipulates that any flight over four hours warrants business class.
My biggest point of actual pride is the fact that I got to where I am despite growing up on a dairy farm and never finishing hischool.


Seconding Paycheck. One of the few Affleck movies I like.


While I’ve always liked the first two Terminator movies due to their Tech Noir aesthetics, I find that this one adds some important background to the world building in general. The story is for the most part interesting, and Christian Bale plays the role well.
Terminator III and any movies after Salvation can fuck right off, tho.
Sure, I’ll give it a go if it requires minimal effort on my part.
