They really aren’t but I am also not following how things like “every website that shows time” has anything do do with phones.

That would be the Internet. POTS was replaced a long time ago, pretty much all cell towers use a fiber backhaul now.

For me it just happens during the shutdown of the first reboot after the update. When it comes back up on the new software it works just fine.

Just so we are clear the dot com crash was a result of over commercialization and venture capitalization of the World Wide Web (hence “dot com” crash and not Newsgroup crash). The Internet was nearly 30 years old at that point. What became AOL went online in 1985, 8 years before commercial interests were allowed on the WWW, just as one for instance.

I just use rEFInd because I never don’t have problems with grub.

Thank you, I have heard of story arcs before, but never in this context.

Okay… but what does that language even mean?

What does this even mean?

They did that from an F-15 back in the 80s.

This picture always cracks me up, in no small part because that HTC One X puts this picture at around 2012.

I had a job once where they said “it’s OK that we have meetings all day because you have all night to finish your code”…

They do make non-smart TVs, you just have to know where to look.

Fun fact: Campaign Evolved is technically the third remake.

Bungie was originally a Mac exclusive game company when they were bought out by MS. Halo was almost complete at that point and had to be ported to DirectX. The original PowerPC edition got a release eventually as well as an updated Universal Binary version that, due to the MacBook Air, is the only game I know of to have an official no-CD patch.

Fun fact: The first Nvidia chip, the NV1, used quadrilaterals for primitives rather than triangles because it was based on and somewhat compatible with the Sega Saturn. However around the same time MS announced that DirectX would exclusively support triangle primitives and the rest was history.

I’m pretty sure it’s the same as those tiny milk bottles that look just like the gallons, these are just based off the larger jugs they used to use.

For what it’s worth the original point of the Pi was to recreate the experience of the Commodore 64 or BBC Micro where they came with huge manuals with ample examples and were more or less bare hardware for cheap. Taking that metaphor all the way is how we got the 400 and 500.

Capitalism knows no sentimentality.

Thank you.

Who or what is DSP and what game is this?

For some reason there are people on here who think that Lemmy should just be a copy of Reddit.
