Well it sets an upper bound on compute requirements at ‘simulate 10^27 atoms for thirty years’ remains to be seen if what we can optimize away ever converges with what’s feasible to build.

It would become Twitter.

Can’t wait for the bots to tell us what they learned about b2b marketing!

I’m so hype for typed dictionaries

I agree strongly with your gut reaction. I personally use it as the archive of record whenever I digitize some media that would otherwise be lost. I use it when trying to establish how something looked in the past. I don’t need IA to go out and pick losing fights with publishers at the expense of the excellent services they already provide.

It should be noted that if you want digital book loans Libby is fine.

N64 runs ok on pi? Since when? Which PI?

The nice thing about Samba is that you can find clients for everything.

So like systemd but ten times more dramatic.

Warzone 2100 was my jam! They hadn’t actually got cutscenes working in the Linux port I was using so I was.very confused about the story.

Termux used to rock but nowdays installing stuff is very hit or miss.

x86 apps? Awesome.

Does Valve ship a usable desktop distro?

What’s crazy to me is that Linux was out way in front of this. Put me in front of windows back in the aughts and say ‘go install a program’ and you had to google it, hope you clicked the right download link, install it, hope you didn’t get a virus. Ubuntu you just opened up synaptic and bam, there was a wealth of programs you could just install with a single click. It was mind-blowing, and way easier than what everyone else offered.

Baby Duck syndrome is real, and probably the reason I’m using Lubuntu; it superficially resembles the OSs I grew up using (Win9x/OS9/WinXP.) Windows, MacOS, Gnome, and Mate on the other hand relentlessly change their interfaces.

I still don’t understand why IA picked a fight with publishers with the emergency library.

IA provides a really valuable service and they’re an incredibly juicy target. Going on anti-copyright crusades isn’t their mission.

MacOS was just about as jank as Windows 9x by my recollection.

The screen was nice, the USB support was nice. I didn’t hate the keyboard, though I was used to an IBM Model M so I hammered those keys…

It’s what I use for my home server and it’s great. You can even use VLC to stream music and stuff via samba.

Ambrosia Software published a bunch of Mac games back in the day, but the app store crunched them.

Marathon was a mac exclusive. Will the new Marathon ship on mac at all?

For the tower defense enthusiast.
