I use a PowerBook G4 running MorphOS.

My parents never bought me an Amiga when I was little, and I’ve been making up for it ever since.

My wife is definitely team ‘make it from scratch’.

She is also a very slow cook. We also have an infant that is currently taking up 110% of our time.

It’s hard for me to justify spending two hours a night preparing a lunch for the next day. She likes to sleep in, so I never get to eat it fresh… it’s always leftovers.

I don’t mind cooking something fresh for lunch or dinner, but I’ll do something that takes 20 minutes of prep and then take care of itself on the stove or in the oven. Chilli, pot roast, or a casserole.

I think frozen dinners probably have a better balance of protein/carbs/veg than either of us makes, and at half the price.

It was a shiny EGA card.

On an 8-bit ISA bus, with a whopping 64kB of VRAM. It could display an amazing 16 colours on one screen.

My friend who had a CGA card was so jelly with his four eye-soaring neon colours.

If we’re talking accelerated graphics, I bought a voodoo 2 with 8mb of RAM which linked up to my ATI Mach 64 2d-card.

I’d go somewhere in-between to keep things dry.

Condensation around windows and outer walls make great growing grounds for mold. 15°C is the recommendation here.

Shit can happen. Boilers break. Leave your faucets dripping and run your circulation pump off of a battery and inverter to save your pipes.

I plugged one in today. I left the screws loose. Ironically I moved it between two computers that couldn’t originally do VGA.

I re-organised my leisure desk. My C64 sometimes hooks up to a TFT thanks to my turbo chameleon 64 cartridge.

Today I hooked my C64 up to my CRT instead. I needed that TFT for my Amiga 1200 which has DVI-I out thanks to my indivision flickerfixer. But I have a DVI->VGA adapter to use that same cable.

In my country we have designated billboards where candidates get to put up their posters ahead of elections. Usually along roads, by malls, promenades, etc.

Messing with those is election interference. Believe it or not, straight to jail!

If the would-be murder was denied the purchase of a gun and then just decided to go get some MacDonald instead, then it’s not really attempted murder.

Conspiring or planning, perhaps. But even then you’d need to prove what he was intending to do with that gun.

A lot of software did not run under windows NT4. Especially stuff that used the soundblaster directly.

Plug-n-play never worked, and drivers for hardware usually only came on floppy for DOS/win3/win95.

For some reason USB-drivers were not installed by default, either. That’s after swapping through 18 diskettes during installation. Just copy it all if you’re going to have me be a human jukebox.

I don’t use make-up, but I make an exception for the soap from the hardware store.

My routine goes a bit like this:

• get into shower
• turn on water
• get wet
• turn off water
• lather up
• turn on water
• rinse off
• turn off water
• rub dry with that same old towel

I do this as necessary, but at least before Christmas and midsummer (even if not necessary).

I don’t really watch Christian movies.

The last thing I saw him in was that home alone, but with a dog instead of a kid. “Alone for Christmas”. I can’t really recommend that, either.

Currently on a CMF phone 1.

Best phone is a tie between Nokia E70 or the HTC Dream. Suitable form factors and physical keyboards <3

I’m driving a 2007 which I guess I’ll move on from in a couple of years. I loathe the day when my only options are cars that get OTA updates.

Everything smart has shown their true colours about altering the deal. My TV didn’t use to have ads on the home screen. Now it’s 80% of it.

It’s not just about the frequency. It’s about the modulation. You need new/additional radio hardware. Constantly being on another band eats more battery, too.

But as we’ve seen in busy areas, there’s just not enough bandwidth with many nodes on LoRa. It’d get congested real fast if it were built-in to mainstream phones.

Using the hardware that’s there, something like briar let’s you get your messages routed through whichever means. Bluetooth mesh, internet or tor.

That’s harsh coming from a second-generation immigrant who keeps marrying immigrants.

I wanted to name my daughter Zelda. Mrs Pano vetoed it.

The Z makes it sound sexy. Also Moxy got shot down.

Hi Elaine!

The contributor above works at Baikal Electronics, which are a defense supplier in/for Russia, and therefore sanctioned.

The Linux Foundation is based in the US and have to bide by those sanctions.

All my troubles seemed so far away?

I was staring at that username for quite a bit after reading the comment saying that it was in their username. I did not get it, either.

Even knowing that there’s a trans flag, and that that’s what is in the username, I wouldn’t know what pronouns to use.

They sure do.

The point was that Orange Man and his followers were calling to stop the count when early votes and mail-in ballots were counted towards the end and made him lose swing states. He said something along the lines of “we were winning, and then they found these votes, and suddenly we were losing”.
