Most of the time it isnt mine either. But here and there there will be large swaths of some site that are just not archived. At one point if someone put up a robots text file history would just vanish. Have not checked…
Even Archive.org is rather limited in what it keeps. I know of a very large site that recently disappeared. archive only has part of the web html part of the site. Everything else is either gone or non accessible.
There are. Several model maker communities use it to put stuff up for sale. It is a nice way to find other model makers. The reason I joined FB no longer exists for me. I remember why I stopped talking to many of the…
'always online' has created a whole new set of buggy from a lot of companies. For example cyberpunk is NOW a playable game. Launch date was a very mixed bag. 'fix it after launch' ugh.
Having just put a battery into my existing system. For the power company I use the answer is no to your question. Many power companies charge that fee depending on the size of panels. Now if you do not hook to their…
I did something similar in win16/32 at one point. Think we wanted something special with graphics on the button. We basically had to recreate all of the actions of focus/unfocus/etc. Everything a normal button could do.…
and sometimes you can not do that. if it is some sort of historical thing.
Probably talking about swapping it in from some external datastore. These days you would open the file and dump it into a single buffer and rip across it, and not even really stress about it. Even 256 meg of hard drive.…
Unfortunately not all of them. It depends on the device you are using, and the storage device, and the kernel, and the CRT you are using. The process I was using went from like 20-30 seconds to run to less than a second…
Also you need to be careful what you read/write. In some cases. As many examples out there use int/char etc to show how to use the thing. But if you switch to structs that fwrite can totally burn you if you use the…
There is one game called 'hack n slash' on steam. You manipulate the 'global vars' to win the game. There is even one point where the game has you open up its data files and change things. Interesting mechanic.
On some systems/drives if it detects an error that is big enough it will reset the carriage. You can here it reading and rescrubbing over and over. That can cause the carriage motor to overwork and burn out. Not sure of…
> Now I work mostly with PhDs who were at the top of every academic environment they've ever been in. And yet I can see their thinking skills rapidly declining as well I noticed this before LLMs became a thing. It was…
those story points do not earn themselves!
Start simple add the rest later when you needed it. How will you know you need it later? At 3AM. If it makes you feel better add a comment what will be needed when it breaks. I see over and over wildly overdone code.…
Yeah that probably should just be an option. Basically the default is to least mangle the zip file. Where the most extreme is turned on by flags. One of those could be 'remove empty folders'.
Yeah I was thinking that. Also at some point you will be switching motherboards every other cpu update just due to the socket changes between generations.
Heh, not sure why but it makes me wonder if you could 'Ship of Theseus' something like that into a modern day desktop. By going thru the different eras of DIY compute.
I want to see the outtake lines they didnt use. Roddy Piper had tons of one liners he would use for wrestling.
I wanted an accountant I got a poet.
That can happen many times during a buyout. Some company buys a thing. The problem then is ownership of the thing. Who in the new company is going to own the 'make sure it stays good' problem. Sometimes with a buy out…
Sometimes also the project is just 'done'. I many years ago made a windows screensaver (never released to anyone else). Just so I could have a '2001' screen saver. Basically in the background of the movie was all these…
Think someone got the bill and worked out their burn rate and pushed the big stop button. Remember when you are renting other peoples computers they can and will change the terms for their benefit. They own it. You…
IoT was an absolutely terrible fit for the home space. My parents have light switches in their house installed in the 1940s. They still work just as good. Getting something from the IoT of home automation to last like…
Had one project where for some reason one of the devs wanted to access the messages before it got translated. The reasons are lost to time. You technically could create other types of application that is not CLI or…
