"Fantastic orgy of destruction" is my middle name. It's hard to explain that to HR managers.

Shitpost machinegun.

Also huge nerd, but you'll have to wade through shitposts and #monsterdon toots to find anything of substance.

@gearlicious @foone I wonder if that’s SCSI. That could fit an HD50.

@foone @gearlicious that TSSOP-24 could be an active termination IC too.

Copying a megabyte of files onto an eeprom takes a while. Maybe next time I should bring a USB flash drive that isn't a joke

@foone lol yeah I’ve got. T-Mobile branded one that’s 256k. I’m sure it had some marketing wank on it when I first got it. I still keep it around because I once ran into a Cisco router that couldn’t access a USB drive over some size and that size was unreasonably small.

we need metacomputers.

one of the big features of computers and how they improved productivity was how they let us automate a lot of things that we had to do by hand before.

well, most of the things I have to do by hand these days involve badly designed software.

@foone I hear you but what happens if the window moves or changes dimensions? Any sufficiently advanced visual recognizer is either AI or indistinguishable from AI.

let’s consider instead Microsoft’s position on apps and Powershell. To paraphrase “In Unix, everything is a file, in Windows everything is an API.” So most of the administrative and mgmt features of windows are (or have) APIs that care hooked directly or indirectly through powershell.

@foone well youve probably got the vision problem solved then, forget I said anything about that.

I just saw a job listing for a company doing "home defense using AI and non-lethal deterrence"

The company's name? Sauron.
