Haha, I remember buying Mandrake Linux CDs... I'm a FreeBSD user these days (for the past 20-odd years) but still run KDE. Plus they're still trying to remain fairly *nix agnostic which is nice.

Yeah I remember IE5 and NS4, as well as the Firebird/Phoenix/Firefox naming joys back in the day.
If you want to blow your brains out, try getting XHTML 1.1 working in IE6. It is indeed possible if you modify the XHTML DTD. Interestingly it'd render shit so much better since it'd use MSXML instead of Trident as the rendering engine. Sadly it would add about 400k to the page since it needed to load a custom DTD...
Haven't been awesome. One of my kitties has had some health issues (they suspected skin infection but after shaving and testing they're not sure...) so she's home and pissed off, and my other cat doesn't recognize her because she was bathed and shampooed so she's being hissy....
But in general a bit off. I'm kinda burnt out with work, and a little burnt out relationship-wise*. It's been a long week.
*Would prefer to talk 1:1 vs. publicly about it
Yeah it's a pain in the arse. I 100% recommend Broadcom or Intel NICs for a router. I have a fileserver which has several Intel NICs and a single Realtek one and the latter is a PITA.
If you're using any FreeBSD-based OS you should manually compile the realtek-re-kmod port. Make sure your kernel source is in sync with what you're running.
Been both fighting and supporting my partner. She is stubbornly independent but also somewhat insecure so I'm trying to figure it all out. Reached out to a counsellor today so fingers crossed
Upside is I've started DJing again. It's been... about 15 years since I did it (at bars etc) and it's vert cathartic. I'm enjoying it although now being in apartment my timing is limited. My brother sent me some mixes I did in early-/mid -2000s which has been inspiring
https://soundcloud.com/legios_81/sets/mark-andrew for the record. It's mainly hard house and trance as a warning for everyone. From 2004-2005...
I wonder if they'll just use WebRTC and use peer-to-peer. Which is you know, revolutionary... cough
78% yes so far (City of Melbourne is my area). But it's not enough.
I have a partner who looks indigenous and is scared of how this will all play out. We worried this will normalise racism even more than it has already become.
Misrepresentation membership to a professional organisation that's regulated (in this case, Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency regulates it) is illegal.
In one case I found out they lied to me about why we broke up and the second she became a horrible, vindictive person after we broke up and started spreading lies and rumours about 6 month after we split. Originally both breakups were quite amicable and soured and they didn't understand that that had quite a lot to do with my decision to 100% no contact.
I don't think I'm 100% against it now that I think about it further. I just seem to have a history of dating people with an underlying hurtful streak and/or poor empathy...
Yep I second this. I have gone NC with all my exes. Two wanted continued contact but that's just not me and sometimes people ask me what they're up to and I can happily respond I have NFI.
The past is the past.
Oh shit, I remember LiteStep and spending hours and hours to just fiddle with how my desktop looked. I personally felt Windows 2000 was the pinnacle of MS OSs (except so many games etc. wouldn't run because rightly the OS reported it was Windows NT and a lot of games shat themselves at that)
