Ever seen a hard drive this small? The newest addition to my collection, the Hitachi Microdrive (4GB) it was a heard drive used in iPods and CF Card compatible devices.

IT Friends, it's that time again.

So if you use #Windowblinds and your system has just updated to #Windows 24H2 and Explorer no longer works when trying to use File > Open from apps, , unload Windowblinds from the tray icon, add an exception for c:\windows\explorer.exe and reload Windowblinds. It should then work.

Welp. I lived through Chernobyl I, never thought I'd be here to see the sequel.

Didn't we jut do this dance, NVIDIA?

Been testing out Rustdesk as a free VNC / Teamviewer replacement. It's great, passes audio and clipboard on Windows / Mac / Linux. Tips: Set it to show the remote cursor, and if the remote cursor is too big, turn ON (yes, ON) "Zoom Cursor".

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

here, have some fish from 2002

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

Botchamania 505! Time for another round of botches, unbreakable doors, confused commentators, TNA crowds letting their feelings known about Tessa B, and everything else keeping the wrestling world spinning. youtu.be/spWvaaPcRiY

Not even 48 hours later and I am already so utterly disgusted with the current political climate. I don't want to see any news, hear any news or read any news. It literally makes me queasy. I want this all to go away. I feel awful for anyone who will be affected by this sub-human creature. 😭

Ladies! Don’t settle for anything less than Dougie!

The amount of spam on Telegram is ridiculous. Is this how they get people to pay for premium, to block all of it? I'm not going to :P

too on-the-nose that @theonion.com is one of the first accounts to reach 1M followers here. they're officially bluesky's paper of record now, i don't make the rules

Charles Bronson and his wife Jill Ireland 💙🌹✨

What we need is a new ATProto based Facebook / Messenger replacement not tied to phone numbers. Is anyone working on this?

Maybe just ban the damn guns.

I took a moment to pause tonight. Seeking some peace before the storm ahead. Remember, self-care as we go forward. Even in war zones, there is R&R. Fall back and take care of yourself when you need it. The rest of us can fill your spot in the line until you're ready to come back.

LGR covers my era of Tech. This was the happiest time I had in technology when the future felt wide open and not owned by like 5 corporations that all want to sell you out.

As a kid I was always jealous that my friend got to take home an Apple IIc from school, which at the time I thought was superior to the IIe units I got to use in the computer room. TIL the IIc was an inferior, already cancelled model by 1988 LOL

David Lunch died... :( I kept meaning to watch Twin Peaks and never did. Time to fix that in memoriam.

My 3D printer makes sounds as the printhead moves. Sometimes it sounds like burbling, other times like a swishing sound, but right now it's randomly making sounds like Discord beeps and it's messing with me because there are no notifications in app.

Aa a former retail worker the MC of "I May Be a Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time" / "Guild no Uketsukejo desu ga, Zangyo wa Iya nanode Boss wo Solo Tobatsu Shiyo to Omoimasu" is my spirit animal. I'm waiting for the first LN where the title's longer than the novel.

@vermillionworks.bsky.social Check this out, a couple of MST3K alumns did a riff on THE TINGLER and had an interview with Victoria Price! This is just the trailer but I bought it and it seemed worth it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sjkc...
