I think it’s more of a mobile phone issue especially messaging apps. People see a meme they like on here or Reddit and download it. Then they try to send it to friends and family and Facebook Messenger or Signal or whatever can’t read webp.
Gotta risk it for the scone!
Seal team 6 standing by.
No this case was just that dumb.
Almost had me in the first half!
What about a double click?
Can you imagine an “intelligence” trained on Facebook posts?
If all the doctors leave Texas etc then they’ll have to believe in God’s will.
Also we only see the few structures which survived. 99%+ did not make it 2000 years.
I’m pretty sure ours was asbestos… back in the 80s.
Noone fucks with John Daly though. Man can swing a club.
Surprised Texas is in that list.
It was so much fun. I still get some of the same thrills building a retro console using a rpi, or a home media server in the garage using a second hand dual Xeon motherboard.
But sadly as the CEO of a software firm I don’t get to hack away much on anything anymore.
I do occasionally get to impress the young ones with my Linux command line wizardry and 1337 vim skills. I really need to get a beard.
At university in the 90s some friends and I ran our own Linux server. It was a 486 or early Pentium and we hooked it up to the university network in a post grad student’s office who was happy to just keep it running under his desk.
We even got the campus sysadmins to give us a proper edu domain name. It was a more open and different time and ethernet still meant coax cables with T connectors and terminators.
We were running pre v1 kernel on slackware and it was all installed from floppies. We used it as a web server, coded and played muds, read newsgroups and mail etc. I think tin and pine etc. we easily had 20 users using it from the computer labs.
Anyways the computer kept dying or freezing occasionally. Still early Linux. And the office where it was kept wasn’t always open and we didn’t have a key.
Being electronic engineering students we built a whole circuit with a PIC controller which plugged into the parallel port. We wrote a watchdog daemon which would keep pinging this dongle. And the firmware on the PIC would check for these pings.
If the server died the pings would stop and the dead man’s switch dongle was wired directly into the hardware reset button of the PC.
Worked like a charm for 4 years. And apparently worked for another 5 or 6 after I left.
They probably got frustrated and kicked it across the room and it landed upside and started loading.
That’s my head canon anyways.
Or maybe Facebook data is even worse than Twitter?
