I think it’s best to not defend kiddie porn, unless you have a republican senator in your pocket.

Didn’t Geordi hit him like a cornerback on a mission?

I think the latter.

I installed the 16-member party Mod and took all the origin characters (except urge) around for a while. Combat became a chore. Probably the biggest grievance is they’d block each other’s movement, but it just took REALLY long to do combat with them all present.

That’d interfere with my wireless charger…

If the Russians had not been rude to Musk, and hurt his little ego, SpaceX wouldn’t exist.

I guess we blame the Russians for this too then.

Sounds like they’ve stayed much the same.

There was a time when I enjoyed that kind of effort. Now I have a job in I.T. and a toddler that I want to spend my free time with. When I use my personal/private computer, I just want my software to work and I want to be able to keep it patched with minimal effort.

In a way I’m glad Slackware has kept to the original ideals. I enjoyed using it from the 3 series through 7 at least. I remember people getting their knickers in a twist when he jumped version numbers. In those days I had a custom kernel that I wove patches into. Big O scheduler, usb support, agpart support, some other stuff I can’t remember. I remember wanting low latency because MP3s skipped otherwise.

It was fun, but back then hacking on Linux kernel patches and building things from source was my hobby. I remember loading Linux into a powermac 4400 because I could, and I used it as my always-on IRC machine.

Ahhh Slackware.

Serious question - does Slackware offer any special features that make it more attractive?

I stopped using Slackware back when Corel Linux released, and when CL died I switched to Debian and never looked back.

Forensic data recovery. How many 500GB drives ship to PCs that never use more than 20% of that?

As of January 2024, archive.org claims to have over 99 Petabytes of data stored.

Absolutely. This video does a great job of debunking the myth. There’s a follow-up explaining why higher sampling has a place in audio mastering.

Yep, probably because it’s not funny or clever. My guess is that you look for funny and/or clever in your jokes.

I was too, but as soon as I heard about the acquisition I started diversifying my non production kit for testing. I’ve now got Proxmox installed on an HPE DL380G10 with GPU pass thru, same on an HP Z440, and XenServer 8 installed on a pair of DL380G9 with MSA2040 backing storage.

At home I’ve got both truenas scale and truenas core set up each on a z230.

No matter what happens with the IT department at my office, I’m ready to either meet the new standards here, or go find work elsewhere.

The first board mount (actually through-board case mount) I recall seeing were HP socket 478. That horror-show of a socket also saw many plastic retention clip implementations that had a tendency to get brittle and crack. Socket 423 (which came before) had the same plastic junk mounts.
