Good question, I don’t know! This was around 1985-ish

It was a 30 kg (60 odd pounds) beast, white, with built in 4-6 inch black /green monitor and keyboard and it used round small (about 2 inch diameter) cassettes to load data from, hidden under a black panel. It had 4 or 8 kilobytes of memory, and I played games with it…there was chess, racing, and some more.

I remember having to put in the cassettes in a certain way, then press a thumb switch to make it load the boot program which would give me a menu from which I could select games to play.

My dad brought it home one day, some insurance company dumped them en-masse.

Anybody who might know from that description what machine it was?

I wasn’t arrested for political fodder, so it’s safe. Right?

Yes, true.

I also know another side to Russia culture, though. The Russians I know call working people the plebs, homeless people garbage, and feel the need to express that anyone in the LGBT scale should be murdered.

These are not just a few random people, mind you, these are Russians from different walks of life I had the misfortune of meeting. I’ve met many Russians, and all of them have this deep seated hatred against anyone and anything that isn’t pure Russian.

Yes, I know that not all Russians are like this, but my point is that way too many Russians are, and are quite happily supporting all the shit that Putin is doing right now.

This is to ensure the military won’t be able to stop them. Expect much more and worse soon

So you broke the law AND made sure to be a dick

Cutting into the military industrial complex, ballsy.

Then again, I suppose a lot of those cuts will just be directly given to the owners of said complex. Keep them happy and you can cut whatever the hell you want to

This applies to all new nu-trek star trek

Just why… Seriously, if all mighty powerful could stop acting like teenagers in a sick measuring contest, that would be awesome

Context matters

Its a very blunt statement but also the way certain people talk. I honestly don’t think Torvalds wants the entire opensuse team tomkill themselves

He didn’t say “hey, <insert name here> go kill yourself”.

He said that if you’re a dev and think its normal to require root password for changing time or connecting to a network, then please kill yourself.

It’s more than anything an expression of frustration in which I recognize myself. I have to deal with a provider from which I won’t be able to leave for at least another year, which is extremely expensive and extremely incompetent, causing me literally days of work and I have wished in more than one occasion that they would all die in a fire because it’s all incompetent managers who don’t do the work they cause all the shit.

When he talks to someone directly, he’ll know, right, Mauro?

Don’t pay for this thing that is for everyone and gets science research done, pay that money to me instead! I’m not a government employee, I just am when I’m telling you what to do!

I’ve said it for about a decade now and I’ll continue to say it: Elmo is an incompetent scammer.

Jail him already. Had Trump not won, by his own words, he would have been in jail now. Oh the dreams.

The incompetent scammer isn’t capable of making economic sound decisions? Who could have imagined that?

The thing that always amazes me about those that oppose LGBT is that LGBT is literally about the freedom to love egoevrt you want to love, including loving yourself how you are.

Those that hate LGBT just can’t stop talking about hate and spite.

… and doesn’t give a shit about that, nothing changes

So Italy is going to block all VPNs, then?

So the king claimed he “fixed something” and then actually nothing had been done?

Color me surprised

Elmo lied? He would never!

Except.that time of the robo taxies

And that time about the boring company doing tunnels 100 time cheaper

And that time with hyperloop causing tens of billions of investment in impossible tech that any 5th grader could debunk

And that time about rockets on Tesla’s

And that time that unfounded Tesla

And that time about solar roofs

And that time about Tesla full self driving

And that time about those laughably stupid robots

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And…

USA! USA! USA!

Yes

Free speech, as long as they like the free speech.

Watch what a bunch of black people or university students start a protest

Then again, you already know this…

Yes please, can’t wait to see the result of that
