I just admitted to remembering working with Windows 3.11 for networking…
Also, being technically correct is the best kind of correct I’ll have you know ;)

It’s what Windows search could have been. I don’t know what kind of black magic they’ve got under the hood there but I think it’s really just indexing and watching the file system for changes so that it can update the index in real time. This obviously doesn’t work for a network resources that change frequently but still, it’s very nice when you don’t know where the hell anything is.
The everything search engine is flexible and fully indexed file search engine that you can use to find any file anywhere on your network or local storage, instantly, and only a little bit slower than instantly on a very slow old machine.
Not always.
In other news, I feel old.
Cool thing is, GPT fixes all the problems with elitist gatekeeping assholes, whether on stack exchange or something random Linux forum. It truly democratizes information.
I hear pi is infinite
I think so. Just pieces parts sitting around at work.
I was hacking together older hardware,but yes. Also it was a while ago.
This. This exactly. I’m wanting to teach my kids how to use Linux and first I want them to get used to it so I’m exposing them to computers through gCompris… So one of the features of the software stops working I don’t know why I uninstall it I reinstall it. Same problem. So now I’ve got to go figure out what’s wrong with the OS itself that’s causing that problem in the software or just reinstall it, the OS that is, because that’ll only take a few minutes to kick off and I can just leave it alone and it’ll finish whereas the OS troubleshooting could take days or it could be something I never figure out.
Not to mention wrapping wifi drivers… 😭
For fun, I once decided I’d figure it out. I was doing a job where I had free time at work and there was spare hardware sitting around so I decided to go ahead and do it.
PAIN. So painful.
I love Linux, but I like to work on whatever I want to work on, not what the OS decides I need to work on that day.
Thank you kind internet stranger! ❤️
Yeah, that occured to me. thank you.good looking out, friend. I accept your offer!
Thank you internet stranger, I’m getting a new computer soon and I will be trying this!
Is it smart enough to pull the activation code from the BIOS if I buy a computer that has that?
It’s got quite the story… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TempleOS
