What was hilarious about that show was all that technology, but the computer printed out answers on receipt paper


Yeah I paid $60 for a mouse in 1984/1985. My friend borrowed it to try it out and a few weeks later his mom got rid of his computer along with my mouse. Nooooooo!


A friend bought a USB stick that had some amazing data size for the era for a cheap price, turned out it ran some sort of zip tool interface and compressed the data


I played pong in the 70s, and that seemed amazing


It matters because accounting has to ledger expenses and balance books. Its a super pain when an employee makes a non work expense and then maybe uses cash to pay off instead of the intracompany accounts, because then the outgoing and incoming doesn’t zero out…usually needs a manual books adjustment to account for the discrepancies.


GRsync is helpful so you can toggle the delete files on destination or not, based on source deletion. Other toggles also, and it shows you what the command line string would be if you did it manually


Yeah, it’s ahitty. I hope your family members stay in remission. 🙏


Treatment for head and neck cancer. Surgery (not so bad), Chemo and Daily radiation. The chemo was rough, and the anti nausea pill did nothing. Radiation starts out fine, but half way through the sunburn inside your throat is horrible, and the combo of chemo and radiation kills your salivary glands and so instead of thin saliva you just have a thick mucous like hot mozzarella cheese strings on a pizza that you can’t seem to spit out and it chokes you to swallow. Your body is so tired that 10cc of water into the Gtube feeder makes you vomit. You lose all taste, so everything is like chewing soggy cardboard.
The only positive is I no longer have to shave my neck, the beard hair there just never grew back.


I forget what tropical place my parents went, but all the roofs were white for that reason


All my banking apps work fine, It’s airline apps that get a bit weird and I’ve had to use compatibility mode settings to get the airline apps to launch properly.


A friend had one. If he started it he had to drive it, because if he started it and then shut it off, it wouldn’t start for another 15 minutes


Sometimes asking if their private conversations (about spouse or kids) conversation would be different with an active observer in the room. Or if they are OK with a stranger at each window watching you. But some see that as paranoia, so it is fruitless.
The real issue is things like: how ICE is requesting records without subpoenas from telecom industries and they comply. Which lets them target protestors, and arrest them an trumped up charges. That’s the slide into 1984 distopia. But it still comes off as paranoid.


Its probably returns where people didn’t open it, got it by mistake etc. I mean I hope it’s that


Yep started with a 7, now I’m on the 9. It has been great


My wife picked up a blister pack of gum recently, the package has 10 spots for gum but they now give you 9 and have modified the vaccuum forming machine to close out one of the 10. Lol. Just a blantant FU consumer.



I moved to GrapheneOS a few years back and dumped their services for an Immich server and proton mail
