diffie isn't responsible for any damage caused by your interactions with it.
My posts slowly degrade from somewhat sane tech-related stuff over time to rather shitposty stuff.
Feel free to bite or hug diffie and be cute in all possible ways. (Some critters say that diffie is cute, but remember that you're certainly cuter!) Be prepated for some
if you nom diffie. :3Flirting is also totally okay, ERP probably too – if it isn't I'll let you know. Note that diffie might be somewhat slutty. (But diffie won't initiate such interactions, with very rare exceptions.)

I don't have hardware issues, that's just the personality of my computer!

@zewm@mastodon.social @haiku@mastodon.xyz I tried to install it (thread) on my old laptop and now I want to use it for the most of my computing stuff. 
I wanted to partially move from Linux to Free- or NetBSD, but after trying Haiku, I don't need/want to try anything else. It just fits all my needs.

RE: https://mk.absturztau.be/notes/aqd27jgj6zyz00f8 Quoting
I decided to try some non-Linux OS to use for most of my computing tasks on my second/old laptop – the ideas were originally NetBSD and FreeBSD, but a friend of mine suggested Haiku. I studied the docs a bit, I was surprised by its good compatibility with SW from the Linux world and I decided to give it a try – with a dedication to try to write any software I miss there, including drivers, to learn more about the platform (Haiku on a x86_64 ThinkPad).
Outcome? I'm using it for about 3 days and I frickin' love it! 
Modesetting, backlight control, audio, Wi-Fi and many others just work. Apps just work too! It's an amazing system.

I would grab arctic fox, if they were working like an air conditioners.

@jackemled@furry.engineer The audio file was nonbinary. Does it makes sense? :neofox_upsidedown_googly_woozy:

@mhoye@cosocial.ca Craft? Efficiency? Caring of details? No, no, these weren't thrown away. They were already gone decades ago.
replacing intrusive thoughts with barking?? :neodog_think_woozy:
Wait, the new Firefox does really show this extremely generic page for a 404 without body returned by the server? :blobfoxnotlikethis:
umm we wrote exam at the school and… I remember “signing” myself only with the numerical ID but I'm 90% sure that there was only “First and last name” field… :neofox_sweat:
Is it safe to store eurofoxes at 32.1 °C? :neofox_thonk:

@pierrenick@hachyderm.io Exactly the same happened to me when looking for a bucket, somewhat in a hurry – but I wanted the one to go.

@foone@digipres.club I was once surprised by a CRT (some SyncMaster maybe…, IDK now) having basically all params available over DDC, with much better support than many current LCD. But I'm not sure whether there was degaussing…

@thechaoszone@chaos.social @q@glauca.space And OpenGateLans is closing (closed?, according to the website). The recents event are quite worrisome.

@jackemled@furry.engineer Quite understandable, given that yesterday, I was listening audio from an ASCII text file containing the samples lines with 0–65535 decimal numbers in.

@TechTangents@dialup.space In the good ol' times, there were two handheld versions of Facebook (m.facebook.com with kinda WAP vibes and touch.facebook.com intended for smartphones), allowing just everything you need to interact with people, including Messenger. Literally all dumb UX decisions except ads didn't influence these. (Facebook also wrapped the latter one in a WebView and made an Android app.) :neobot_code_facebook:

@sleepybisexual@mk.absturztau.be I can also recommend putting there as much RAM as possible. DDR3 and older seems¹ to be quite cheap.
¹ I might have outdated information, but I guess nobody wants DDR2/DDR3 even with the AI stuff happening…

@enfys@wetdry.world I should return to playing OpenTTD. Or maybe playing computer games in general…
OpenTTD is amazing.

@catpunk@piperco.global I absolutely love album Frailty and I'm kinda mostly stuck at it. 
Few tracks from Census Designated are cool, but kinda not of my taste.
Hmm, I should try listening to that tonight to try to change my opinion… :neofox_thinking:

@leeloo@c.im @TechTangents@dialup.space Kinda both, Google serves a different page (or maybe redirects, IDK now) depending on the UA string. DuckDuckGo does the same. And when the UA guesswork fails, you might end up with a page you can't use.
There is still reCAPTCHA which is IIRC unpleasant to use on dumb browsers. (Note that my experience is outdated by many years, as I don't use Google.)
IIRC there was even a SSL-less version of Google, but I guess it's dead.
