Of the 50ish Amiga floppy disks we had, I think Bubble Bobble was the only one my dad actually bought.

In North America we can’t even get signal lights to not look different than break lights. I hope Europe has better luck.

Edit: that sounds like an awesome idea

If you want to die, walk across the street. You’ll have a much better chance than whatever you’re dreaming up.

As a left-leaning Canadian, this seems crazy to me. There’s not even a place for me on this chart.

It’s crazy how normalized right-wing extremism is. Well, it does explain the state of things in the US, though.

I don’t think this is the worst outcome. It would have been worse if he was the face of Rust in Linux and it died out over ten years instead of one.

That being said, hopefully it can get a fresh start.

Compiling dependencies for an hour or so every time I wanted to install something also got a bit old.

Is it actually sucky? I think I installed that once, but I didn’t use that laptop much.

If we build giant air moving machines, we could blow all the fresh Parisian air to the countyside.

Dammit.

I have seasons 1-7 if anyone wants them.

Is this a scaldera joke?

Create a PR and describe the situation. Ask if they’ll accept the PR as-is or if they’d accept the refactors separately.

That’s why I use LILO.

Well… The original meme is in kbps (kilobits per second or kilobaud). The quoted speeds for the tech seem to line up with kbps and not kB/s, so I think this is the intent.

8 bits = 1 byte, so in this specific example it was very easy to convert 8 kbps to 1 kB/s to determine that it would take 8 seconds to download an 8 kB file.

Maybe secret300 meant a 8 kilobit file, they did use lowercase ‘b’ afterall 🙂.

It would still take 8 seconds to download.

Is that the same William Shatner of Rescue 911 fame?

Wait til he finds out about “email”.

Ya, maybe it’s not what they intended, but we’ve see it happen enough where source is just closed. Good on them for rectifying it, either way.

Use rsync and only upload the files that have changed.

I meant in Windows 🙂. I guess Windows XP, in particular.
