It's old enough that I'd put money on DEC. Any takers on that.

Do you have your own api key? Been a while, but that's the most common problem.

And if that happened, you might not get back on. The line might be busy, you might have run out of time or logins for the day..

They always end up using vitamin P to get profitable.

The real question is: how long will it take to go from a sign of low quality to a sign of high quality?

Lots of non native to English speakers around here too, lowers the odds.

Gates had a version of DOS ready in 6 weeks, while DR was still planning DOS. MS got things going much faster.

I've done IT a long time, and I once was sent to a gleaming new building.. In an Indiana corn field. In the middle of nowhere, for Indiana. They made very small number of parts (or mostly one) for the military. It was probably an F35 part. An entire bespoke business for a part...

I have people skills damnit!

Rust, the new "I use Arch, BTW"

Would not be a surprise if AI brought this back.

The Ship of Theseus has questions.

My dad chose hospice over dialysis and constant potassium problems. I feel you there.

Always picture someone with a big can of diesel filling up a generator. Experience says it could be a genny running on natural gas. Had that at work before.

People like to see everything as self expression. In reality, a job is a job, and you're there to make money for someone else.

Interesting point, does that mean AI with favor startup or startup like places? New tools often seem to favor less established and smaller places.

Isaac Asimov has entered the chat.

Phase 1 and Phase 2.

Also interesting using it as an EFI executable. Remind me to start adding that to the menu of ... well, everything.

God bless you for this sir. I've been wanting to get Windows iscsi boot working, but there's always one more thing. Did you get anything else fun working with ipxe? all the exampled online seem so outdated.

Marketing is as marketing does.

It's either the Chromebook effect: people are just buying slower computers, possibly in poorer-ish countries.

Or: The average speed of new computers just isn't going up. People are just buying lower end computers because they're good enough. I think it's mostly that: the average is just trending a bit lower because lower is fine. The thirst for the high end is disappearing for most segments, because people don't need it.

Had 4 of the 5000 version of the models. Quickly moved to other drives. Got lucky.

I've had the same complaint about DEI stuff in the US. Diversity is wonderful, but you also need people to integrate. The US used to be called the great melting pot, now we don't expect people to melt. No wonder we have so many problems. People used to be expected to integrate, that don't now, people should rightly be pissed.

This all feels like the "with a computer" patents of yore.

Broadcom changed their licensing recently, charging much much more for most of their stuff. They also, IIRC, announced Workstation was going away. They are destroying all trust with those who use it. So when they announce this is free, it's hard not to think that means they won't update it any more as they are going to extremes to make $.

Will soon?

I hear the go around the other way down there.

Idiocracy was spot on.

Found that out the hard way twenty years ago. The stated half life is NOT for me what they say.
