Some middle-aged guy on the Internet. Seen a lot of it, occasionally regurgitating it, trying to be amusing and informative.
Lurked Digg until v4. Commented on Reddit (same username) until it went full Musk.
Was on kbin.social (dying/dead) and kbin.run (mysteriously vanished). Now here on fedia.io.
Really hoping he hasn’t brought the jinx with him.

My own external 1TB HDD is old enough that it only has USB2 connectivity. It transfers at around 40MB/s. Maybe you’re in the same situation?
I only transfer files of a few gigabytes to it every month or so, which I find bearable, but I’d be less happy if I was trying to move hundreds of gigabytes or the full drive contents on a regular basis. That would literally take hours.
I had a weekly schedule for the longest time, because if I didn’t, things didn’t get done.
When I let that slip to a colleague he thought it was hilarious. But then he wasn’t the one with undiagnosed ADHD.
Interesting. And yet it’s still incomplete. F6 and Alt+D both do the same thing (focus the address bar), so there’s at least one line missing and definitely at least one column.
This must seriously be messing with the heads of people high up in insurance companies. On the one hand AI is something that no C-level can resist, but on the other, that’s an expensive way to say “no” to every request for money.
We’re all bags full of bones and offal, but we find very few configurations of that to be acceptable. Fewer still if some of those parts are missing.
Try visiting your local abattoir and tell them you won’t leave until you get a bag full of bones and offal and see if you like what you get.
(Caveat: This may not apply if you are a manufacturer of haggis.)
Is it any more maintainable with four levels of abstraction?
