I don't really understand this either. Mixer taps are just better, but I have separate taps in my bath tub despite the block of houses being built in the 2010s. Guess some people like the aesthetic.
Those things are terrifying. Someone's little scooter's wheel base is definitely not stable enough for that sort of speed. And that's before the battery fires.
It's one thing when you're a fit adult male and get hit by an idiot cycling recklessly on the pavement, it's another if you're a small child or frail through sickness or old age. I've seen a couple of very near misses…
Getting my first SSD was absolutely the best computer upgrade I've ever bought. I didn't even realise how annoying load times were because I was so used to them and coming from C64s and Amigas even spinning rust seemed…
It was alright in Quake, as I recall, but it really didn't cope at all well with Quake 2 and Jedi Knight.
> Actually it was the Ati Radeon 9500 non pro that could be modded into a Radeon 9700. Sometimes. At least some of those 9500s were binned parts that showed their broken bits when you modded them. I had one. The screen…
The post office was acting as victim, investigator, and prosecutor and simply lied or withheld evidence to ensure that the defence had nothing to work with and the jury had nothing to contradict that view. It's…
The replies from blue ticks that get pushed up mostly seem to be braindead trolling and camgirl spam too. Twitter was always a bit of a cesspit but you could curate your way to a useful feed. Now it's just awful.
There's been talk of replacing the natural gas used directly for heating in the UK with hydrogen. I have absolutely no idea how viable that will actually prove to be but it seems difficult.
Yeah. That's where I've gone for all my Amiga nostalgia needs over the years.
I've seen them listed anywhere between one and several thousand depending on condition, spec, accessories, etc.
Yeah, that's what happened to most of them. Between that and leaky caps I don't think there's many working examples left now.
If you still have that A4000 it's worth real money now to the retro crowd.
The user experience of reddit is already poor unless you hide on old.reddit.com. I have no idea how anyone could sign off an interface like the new one, which is just appallingly slow even on relatively high-end…
This is where I am. Once they cut off password sharing here I'll be cancelling my subscription. They produce very little content I watch these days and license even less as other streaming services have started ring…
They were used for video work in their day. Babylon 5 used them for effects shots. I think the big box Amigas were more common across the pond, used for work stuff, in the US than they were in Europe, where the Amiga…
The US government is also spending massive amounts of healthcare without actually delivering healthcare to way too many people. The whole system is bonkers.
Do US courts not have the ability to refuse bail to people like this? You'd have the same problem if he had enough cash to afford bail. It seems like a complete failure of the system for him to even have the option of…
Contract manufacturing won't have anywhere near as fat a margin as their CPU lineup has had the last decade though. That'd be a hard thing to sell to the shareholders.
There not being enough evidence to convict does not equal a false accusation.
I liked the OS, too, but Microsoft didn't do themselves many favours by resetting the dev platform several times and not having upgrade paths between major versions. What momentum they had cratered every few years.
Going from the Amiga or Archimedes to Windows 3.1 would have been painful. I'm glad I didn't get into the PC until Win 95 had showed up and got it to a semi-reasonable point.
I think that's probably it. They were all hooked up to a network, and it was never anything other than ropey.
We had loads of these old Archimedes computers at school until the late 90s when IBM-compatibles took over. I remember them taking absolutely forever to boot up for some reason. They were fast enough when they got…
You can use four or more letter extensions quite happily in my experience (.html works for example). Three is just convention.
