i promise i keep thinking about fixing and upgrading computer fairies. i just hate the prospect of actually doing it and never get to it. but i do think about it and it hangs over my head like a dark cloud
my wife's windowsill garden is pretty and she posts about it on a forum not controlled by big corporations or reliant on cloudflare infrastructure and you should look at it https://forums.transbian.love/?page=post&id=2668
@arielmt more and more i feel like computer literacy dies with us
It was a mistake to quit shipping computers and operating systems without even one hobbyist-oriented programming environment preinstalled & featured.
Even a dialect of BASIC, picking up where 8-bit ROM BASICs, GW-BASIC, and QBASIC left off, & much more discoverable & tinker-able than the WSH/VBScript buried deep in every version of Windows since 98, would've been an improvement.
At least then, explorers & would-be hobbyists would have options instantly more viable than the slop machine plague.
OK #Firefox users, this is a special request. I'm looking for someone with a high-end Raptor Lake machine that is experiencing instability in Firefox (or anything else for the matter). The best candidate is a CPU from the 13900* SKUs. K or not doesn't matter as long as it's one with the 8P+16E cores.
We have a potential workaround for one of the most common bugs of this CPU, but we need a broken machine to test it.

@selectric A 63-year-old coworker once asked me, staring pointedly with his arms crossed, "is this like, a 6-7 thing?"
And it took me a full minute staring back at him trying my best to hold my shit together that he was asking if what we were seeing was an off-by-one error.
