Psions were pretty amazing. Can’t believe they ran a whole operating system like that on a couple of batteries. Iirc, turning on the LCD backlight doubled the idle power consumption. So the whole system was as heavy as a couple of LEDs.

NeXT is probably the pretty direct ancestor of osx dock. Only Apple turned it from good to bad by moving it to the bottom, where there is no space. And that only got worse as screens became wider, but not taller. And they made it overlap and obscure content and bounce around if you got near it making it extra obnoxious and hard to use.
Other docks existed even before, of course.
You could use some sort of caffeine as a workaround. I do since sleep locks don’t always work.
Nothing, mostly. And nothing. Unless there was hard wind or rain or an occasional bird. Loud birds can be a bit annoying to me these days.
It’s Nvidia. That’s not going to change.
I think you’re missing a digit there.
Weird. I’ve used 1000,2000,3000,4000 series without any issues ever.
Almost as if it was a blessed and cursed image at the same time.
Overkill is really the best kind of kill.
Both my own “method” and a suggestion if I can cut it down to essentials:
Watch yourself closely. Don’t fall into more traps. There’s a lot of load already and you’re not at your best. So don’t make it worse. No drugs, alcohol, bad relationships, risks, incel or other insanity etc. Keep a careful and steady life and focus on healing and getting back on your feet as they say. Deal with things as they come. Work on yourself. Do things you care about. Avoid stress and especially anger and hate as much as possible.
When you’re feeling stronger again, you might know if and what you want to get into.
The box that says shirt, right? This is actually kind of neat to know. Thank you.
Wow. Outed a company that does something as stupid and shady as monitoring employees keystrokes and using that as a metric for their usefulness.
They also have about 5-10 million people each. And Russia right next to them.
Never take software from a hardware company.
Often a whole lot of steps are taken before actually going public.
Broadly yes, as a “user”.
Here’s one nice list which also reflects the status of their usefulness. Physical availability varies widely, though.
Anon is slower on the inside.
I once had a hard drive of some particular vintage that wasn’t able to start. I did actually get it running with a hammer tap. Got the remains of data out and replaced the drive. It was nothing special, a Unix system drive with nothing that wasn’t on tape, but I just had to see if I could fix a hard drive with a hammer.
I also remember one admin who would often be seen walking between computer maintenance room and workshop wing with drives and a blacksmiths hammer labelled “format”.
