after you put the kettle on and let tweetdeck load for like 10 minutes or so, it's rather "usable" if you're ok blind typing into a text box that won't update until after you've already decided it's not worth sending that tweet anyway

Show thread

it was going to take way too long for the text box to catch up on order to fix that typo so i just left it in

it takes a whole lot of effort and monumental paience, but yes you CAN tweet from a pentium II 366 MHz with 128 MB of RAM!

got the escargot server to properly return a 405 on IE6, but still getting a (now different) error trying to sign in through msn7... might need to ask in the forums now

Show thread

msn 7.0 launches now, but now another roadblock.. it needs to connect over IE, but IE won't see the server

Show thread

maybe it's because i don't have IE6? the older version v10b installed fine, but msn messenger is now still asking for a procedure in another dll that's not kernel32 anymore...

Show thread

saw a video of someone running the extended kernel installer and i don't ever get the setup window or the installer afterwards, it just extracts the cab and then tells me reboot is needed, every time. wonder if it refuses to install because of lack of SSE

Show thread

i love to waste away every single one of my weekends never enjoying myself at any point and getting rewarded with having to work the next dat

so i can't replace kernel32.dll with the blackwingcat windows 2000 extended kernel EVEN on safe mode. i can't find a single other soul on the internet who's experienced any issue like this, can anyone please tell me what i'm doing wrong?

fosspost.org/audacity-is-now-a we really, really need to start paying maintainers because this is the logical outcome of treating critical software as volunteerism only.

which wires are comfiest to nestle in? — high-power ones get nice and warm and if they're coiled just right you get free wireless charging retrospring.net/maple_syrup/a/

i can't boot into safe mode because the laptop does not detect external keyboards until it's in the OS even if it's a PS/2 one
