I still don’t get this I don’t think I’ve ever accidentally pressed it while playing a game, and I am someone who constantly presses every wrong key while typing

I declaratively configured myself to not be in prison. checkmate, laws i win this round

The only things I’ve encountered that don’t work are webusb things and snapchat but snapchat you can just change user agent and it’s fine.

I mean to be fair I feel like various body modifications have always existed and probably will always exist. At most this will probably just look dated once everyone moves onto wanting spiky foreheads or something instead of bigger boobs

Interesting, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a laptop where it was soldered.

Also keep in mind that laptop wifi cards are usually easily replaceable, so if you end up with that being the only problem it’s usually cheap and easy to solve

Isn’t it partially closed source though?

I’m not aware of a modern browser that doesn’t render it by default. I meant a real browser as in a browser not a lemmy client

It’s punycode, it displays as japanese characters in a real browser.

This is why I use fish, it’s weird and not posix compliant, but its autocomplete and history stuff saves so much time it’s worth it

My oled phone from 2021 started slowly developing vertical lines of bad pixels this year and has some burn in on the status bar area. It’s still usable, but definitely kind of annoying and a lot worse than the status of the lcd on the older phone it replaced.

Yeah that’s very high on my list of things to do once I have more money. Hopefully my hair is dark enough for it to work

Shaved legs, there’s literally no practical benefit and it’s so much effort but even if I wear long pants just having the knowledge I haven’t shaved makes me so uncomfortable.

I think the best thing to do is to not block them when they’re detected but poison them instead. Feed them tons of text generated by tiny old language models, it’s harder to detect and also messes up their training and makes the models less reliable. Of course you would want to do that on a separate server so it doesn’t slow down real users, but you probably don’t need much power since the scrapers probably don’t really care about the speed

It bothers me so much that the two numbers are in different units

The HP 49g+/39g+ and their descendants the 50g/39gs run the same operating systems as the older 49g/39g except most of it runs in an emulator so they could replace the old Saturn CPUs with ARM ones. And it still runs way faster than the native version on the older devices somehow.

Plus the entire operating system is written in Reverse Polish Lisp, one of the strangest languages I’ve ever seen. Very strange devices, but still leagues ahead of any calculator produced since (at least the 49/50, the 39 is very confusing)

Haiku is pretty unix-like, I wouldn’t count it

OpenVMS is still semi-maintained. It’s DEC’s old operating system that Windows NT draws some inspiration from because Microsoft hired a bunch of ex-DEC engineers.

There’s also 9front, a fork of Bell Labs’ Plan9.

Wegmans’ checkout uses Toshiba 4690 OS, which I think is vaguely descended from CP/M.

I think IBM still maintains their i operating system, which used to be called OS/400.

Network equipment like enterprise routers and switches tend to run weird unique things, Cisco equipment runs IOS and Adtran equipment runs AOS.

They’re probably beneficial for people with their own wells
