If none of the many other reasons were good enough, here's yet another reason you need to quit Google.

If you see someone posting a photo of a sign at a furry convention that advertises HIV / STI testing while sounding offended, it's a queerphobic dogwhistle.

Spread this to your friends/families to inoculate them from bad memes.

crazy how nobody has ever made an mp3 player better than the 4th gen monochrome ipod

Random SyQuest disk find of the day:
AOL for Macintosh source code from 1993!?
Whaaatttt?! 😳

Look at those original icons with the Apple logo in them!

@thedaemon the very last G5 imac suffers from the same thing because it's hard to distinguish it from the first intel imac, usually you can tell a G5 imac because it doesn't have the built in isight but the very very last G5 did have it

@thedaemon most people listing apple computers for cheap on ebay don't really know the difference. and because ebay gives you similar listings to fill up title and description from they end up picking something that looks like it but isn't the same model.

for mac minis specifically you need to look at the ports to tell whether it's a G4 or intel, iirc intels don't have firewire in the back, or it was something about the DVI port

anyone got a cool list of webcams that are of the streaming on a webpage kind and not of the hardware to plug in your computer kind. where's the next xcoffee

@atax1a we got one that went up in smoke the moment we plugged it in - likely a 12V to 3.3V short

thankfully we think only a diode blew up so it might be salvageable - waiting to see if Duane has a spare part

if you're interested in repairing yours or sending it to our collection (although we're uk-based) let us know
