A lot of ATM cash machines run Windows 7. Yes, still.

On my old android phone, I have a beautiful 24 hour clock (app and widget) which is unfortunately no longer available in the play store.

Just saying, it exists if you know how to look for it. It was Vejle, believe it or not, “24 hour clock”.

Ah, you mean like the sync that Palm OS used to have? Yup, that was neat, and I’m still waiting for Android to pick up some of the neat features from back then.

Oh that is hilarious! Just on my first listen but I don’t quite get the lyrics - am deeply disappointed that the video doesn’t have subs. 🤭

Found it on Spotify. It’s so much worse with lyrics. Thank you for sharing a version without them! 🙏

Well there was also gobo Linux, which would let you play Tetris while the installation did its thing.

Aha, interesting, thank you. So setting nofail and a time out of, say, 5s should work… but what then when I try to access the share, will it attempt to remount it?

Dragging a floppy to the bin would simply eject it… 🤷 Well all right, maybe the story is from before the intro of the “Insert disk Foo”.

Seconded.

I’ve read most of folklore.org and do not recall any such story. In fact, how do you even “drag the computer to the waste basket” as the first/only icon would be the System floppy and afaik they’ve never had / still don’t have a “computer icon”. 🤔

How the hell do I set up my NAS (Synology) and laptop so that I have certain shares mapped when I’m on my home network - AND NOT freeze up the entire machine when I’m not???

For years I’ve been un/commenting a couple of lines in my fstab but it’s just not okay to do it that way.

What I am really looking for is beyond our email, it’s proper integration between calendar, contacts, and map.

I want to be able to share calendars with my family, and link contacts from certain events (birthdays, meetings, and also just meet-ups). I want those contact’s addresses to be available as navigation destinations in the mapping app. I want to be able to bookmark (“star”) map locations.

Tutorial: or everything into airports and long-distance routes, you’ll make more money than you can spend. 🤷 At least, that’s how it was when I stopped playing it.

That false constructor parameter is golden.

Shift/Ctrl+Ins/Del unite! 😁 And yes, muscle memory is a powerful drug. Been using it since before Windows came along, kept using it after. Especially useful after I switched to Dvorak (and yes, I know of Colemak).

What’s with all the back slashes? \ why not use a regular…

…line break?

I have never (before) read a single word of that bible, but may I bestow this upvote upon you for so casually and precisely bringing the requested reference.

For a second, I thought this was going to be about Reavers…

Yes, I’ve been on Norwegian Dvorak since 2002 or so.

Biggest problem I’ve had is with keyboards and OS’es (cough 🍎) that don’t support the Insert key, because (a) I cut my teeth on the DOS editor and (b) XCV are all over the place on this layout.

I will always use a proper full size keyboard if at all possible. Those 60% and whatnot are not for me (it’s bad enough when they move the arrow keys).

Oh, and the languages insisting on ${} characters are a pain on any non US layout.

Bluntly, where would Mozilla be without Google’s funding?

Gone, probably.

So while I agree that it is poisonous and there is something very wrong with Mozilla corporate structure, it is a necessary evil.

Correct, it is not.

I’ve been extremely fond of “Our Groceries” for many years. It strikes a sweet spot between features and simplicity of use, and the devs are very responsive and have added several features after my suggestions. Really the only downside right now is that it can’t use the front facing camera on my wall mounted android tablet for scanning barcodes.
