Doesn’t that depend where you want to go?

I’ve seen them from AMD and Nvidia drivers.

Antivirus on my work Windows laptop has caused countless BSODs. VPN clients are often junk.

I had a KVM that could occasionally trigger one.

Windows itself seems to be pretty BSOD free. It is almost always something installed after or hardware.

> It will be very nice when AI gets to the emulator stage.

Do you think we'll be longing for the nostalgia hit of LLM models from 2025 in 2050?

Maybe we will collectively miss being completely right and inappropriate em—dashes.

That's what comes after the verification can.

> we don't allow gambling in every convenience store in the country

In Ontario we do allow gambling in every convenience store in the province.

There are scratch tickets right there on the counter. There's the OLG machine for printing and checking lottery tickets and sports betting.

It has been this way for as long as I can remember, but it's never been in your face like the last few years.

Maybe we'll start repurposing the washrooms and stock rooms for poker tournaments soon.

What a brave new concept!

Sometimes I do miss owning the hardware to run a thing.

What I don't miss was having all of those appliances run a different base distro of Linux, each with varying levels of update support, while the security team keeps reading security scans to me.

Burning the house down in The Sims was one of my childhood guilty pleasures.

The problem with the hustle is that I'd have to hustle.

It wouldn't need to drop grenades. It could pick you up, fly high enough, and drop you to your death. Never runs out of ammo, just batteries.

This is pretty horrifying. Bonus points if you hit somebody on the way down?

That's a CompactFlash card. You often see them used in places where an IDE drive would have been.

Except Canadians who noticed that it was Lake America?

Oops, sorry, didn’t notice you were in Canada eh?

Likely story. No way Google could tell Canada and the US apart.

A filesystem snapshot shouldn’t be much different than pulling the plug and powering it back on.

Does a DB fall apart every time that happens? It does happen, but I might argue it shouldn’t happen, especially in simple configurations.

I do have an automatic daily dump in case of emergencies.

Similarly, I really did prefer Playstation graphics to N64 graphics.

I prefer a separate DB instance for each app. Each app is on a separate ZFS filesystem so I can snapshot/backup the app data and DB together as one.

A possible restore only affects that app. Plus I can guarantee the files and DB were snapshotted at the same moment this way.

It may just be a way for me to avoid managing the DB.
