Knew exactly what scene this was before I’d even taken a good look, let alone read the text. One of my favourites, along with “I will not carry a gun, Frank”.
I'm Hiding 🇦🇺
I jumped off Reddit’s cliff and landed here just like many other Lemmings.

To be fair, POST could mean a number of things. Are we talking in a webserver context? BIOS context? The POST Office?
21·1 year agoI would argue modern MacOS is not “bad software” per se, it’s just nothing to write home about. Back in the heyday you describe, it was innovative and quite spectacular compared to the competition. Nowadays it’s rivals are better featured in many respects, but it still does everything it needs to.
They acquired K-9 Mail a year ago or so, but it’s still K-9 Mail. There’s plans and a roadmap, but not much has happened that the end user can see, yet.
It’s alright. Personal preference has me sticking with Linux, and I’ll never touch Windows with a ten foot pole if I can avoid it, but MacOS is certainly commendable.
Before I went Linux, I daily drove hackintoshes for a decade or so - back when the hardware was bad and the software was first class. Now it’s the other way around!
If Asahi ever get their kernel perfect, I’m definitely buying a modern MacBook Pro. No doubt about it.
It really does just sort of “work”.
“Sorry, there was a problem. (Error code 0x0000fkn69)”
Nothing Microsoft makes ever works.
And one of the last major holdouts from web 1.0 :(
11·2 years agoThe good thing about ChatGPT is that it gives you a starting point for languages you’re not familiar / rusty with.
Pixel 5 and Zenphone come to mind, too.
AI can literally read minds. I don’t think it’s that great of a step to say it should be able to decompile a few games.
It’s crazy to think that a little over two decades ago, Microsoft was almost broken up for selling an operating system and a web browser. How monopolistic!
0·2 years agoI like it, but it’s got the same problem as Thunder. I can’t sort by top!
I wrote one of those papers. The fuckers charged me $1000 to publish it as open access, then other journals download it and stick it on their websites and charge $60 to read it. What a joke!
