My friends high end sony system with square speakers (yeah I’m old) kept poping the speaker coils out of their sockets at 70% power. His 600$ sony dvd player would not play burned DVDs. My Phillips amp would power my realistic home made speakers up to 100% and they could still take a lot more (200W RMS amp and 275W designed speakers) and my weird named 65$ DVD would even play DIVX movies on burned DVDs. Fuck Sony.

Act II: Can’t go back in my ass.

Can’t go back in my ass !

I see a huge difference in picture quality especially at night in my latest phone. And I now kind of like the bump on my pixel 8, I used to use my pinky to prevent the phone from slipping down and it got to a point where it hurts due to the phone weight. But with the pixel 8 I often use the bump with all my fingers holding the weight preventing my pinky from being torn away.

What’s fumny to me is I remember watching a computer show on TV in late 90s they where interviewing an Adobe representative about the new Photoshop 5.0…

The TV host asked what adobe though about pirated copies and the representative said on LIVE TV that Photoshop price was for professional who make a living out of Photoshop and that any hobbyist had nothing to fear about using a pirated copy as it only served to get more people knowledgable about Photoshop and if these started doing business in photography and neede Photoshop they would then pay for it so to not be unprofessional.

He apparently was rejected from his shooting group due to inability to aim.

I guess lemmy.ml filters the word ass ! lol

Nice ! You made me think of spinning up a little server. It’s been a while since I’ve dabbled in managing a server and not aure I have the time for that. But you made the chances if me going for it much higher.

Would a raspberry pi 4 be enough for running it ?

Please someone musically talented do that ! I want NEED to listen to that.

That’s refreshing from the normal News cycle.

Thanks for sharing. BBS’s and epic pinball are the reasons for my interest in computer as a kid. I would watch my friend go on BBS’s and play text based game and download ASCII art all day to the point I learned a lot the got my first real computer (386 sx), I had a coco3 as a kid but that was just BASICS with no floppy or tape to load or save programs.

The 386 was such a new world of possibilities especially with software downloaded from BBS’s, took ages but got lots of kool games and music files (.mod) etc… of course porn for a young teen was also nice lol.

For fucks sake why isn’t all assitive devices open source already. Making profit over disabled people misery is such a evil thing ! The capitalist are so fucking out of touch it’s crazy. Kids dying, disabled people pressed for every penny they have etc… how the fuck did we let things go this bad.

Wow ! That’s way out of control ! I can’t stop laughing at it but just imagine if it were a real condition. That guy is dead.

You ever heard of lossless compression? Well they developed lossfull anti compression, it compresses and decompresses the images so many times that the added artifacts create a larger file than original ! Impressive ain’t it?

Should I add parked car ? Not browsing while driving 💥 🚗

I literally started chuckling alone in my parked car.

Look at the average age of the people in that picture. You think they care for climate change? They know they’ll be dead soon enough.

You got it all tought out beforehand didn’t you?

Oh, I’m sure they are monitoring it ! They want all the juocy info to better blackmail the politicians to secure their jobs.

Exactly that.

I always said I’m on autopilot, I do a LOT of things without even thinking about it.

And also forget to do a LOT of things because I don’t think about it.
