I know of this one time (last year) a window that was purposely kept shut was opened by a visitor and the notebook was rained upon. completely soaked. Kept in rice for about a month (changing the rice on some schedule), it booted up fine for a while. then died completely after a few weeks.

I think it pointed out the right direction at least once, back when i was doing tech support (xp and pre-xp). Back when the toolkit includes whole stacks of cd's containing every driver known to exist. I don't even remember what it is, but it was something Realtek.

I once left a torrent on for ~three years at 50%, obviously no one seeded that anymore. one day i realised it was completed, and i have no idea when. now i only streamed my high sea amusements, i don't even have a torrent client on anymore, but i like to think that the three copies seeded from mine (based on uploaded data) is still out there somewhere.

No, there's an A/B implementation going on. The UBO maintainers hadn't seen the crackdown themselves and had to rely on troubleshooting reports to see what is going on which is wild to think about - both on their skill but also did google specifically whitelist them or are they exceptionally lucky

same here. it's the real reason i don't set it up for people, they need to be able to at least maintain it. My mother can't get the update working either until i did it step by step with her and she practiced it several time.

Or to recap from history, Internet Explorer has no incentive to follow web standards and web design was a stagnant table-based layout until Netscape shows up. Wouldn't have complete separation of text and style the way we do today if css never took off.

DDNS

Before social media back in the 2000's i know quite a few personal site using home servers using them. And (google google) apparently these days cloudflare offers the service.

maybe this problem is more than it really is, maybe youtube really really needs eyes on ads.

Louis Rossman said in one of his video that at his views level it would cost him ~10k a year to host outside of youtube.

honestly at this point i just do uBO purge-cache/update every time i went to youtube after a long enough gap ( haha hours. mere hours i'm addicted) from the last time.

you can go onto your youtube history, search for that video and remove it from your history, and it will stop influencing your recommendations.

every now and then i watch a video about a topic i'm not really interested in except for that one video, and then had to remove it from history.

It's not relevant to me, i'm in a different country, but in i've seen daily completely turn off your hidden phones, and only turn them on when it is safe because the alert will still blare when you turn on you phone the entire week before the test and also months before. Certain circles take warning each other about 'Loud Day' seriously.

 

The dust line thinneth but never gone.

 

Having grown up on livejournal, tumblr really was the closest in experience and culture to how it was then. reddit text posts were actually closest appearance to a livejournal post for quite a while but by the time that was added everyone were comfortable on tumblr, and following users in reddit were added even later.

Lemmy - if instead of aggregating links from community is instead only a chronological feed of text posts including picture in the posts, and only from followed users - and kudos were only number that does not change any placement.

But also tagging - tagging is really important the way it really is not on lemmy or reddit. Not sure if combining reblogs and reblog chains from tumblr can be added, but have that all and - perfect.

I don't know what i'm writing - this is a ramble of unhappiness because tumblr just changed its dashboard setting less than an hour ago. And all signs point out to them messing with reblog chain soon which would make a lot of tumblr users unhappy, nothing else actually does reblogging the way it does.

Because the update

really is

going on well

hah. so tired. not expecting to spend 2023 rebuilding all online identity.
