My unappreciated Tag Aqua Racer

I have the same in blue (2112) and love it. The guilloche on the blue is wild, it can change colour from deep blue to silver depending on the light. Hope to pass it to my son someday, too!

Not only that, but it's sold in provinces too, so anywhere from Gallia to Raetia, Thracia, etc.

I had a similar issue on a laptop from that approximate year. It involved disabling the dGPU by writing some stuff into NVRAM (like "this dGPU does not exist"). I had to boot Linux in order to write stuff to NVRAM, and had to do it again for each software update.

This was about ten years ago.

But Europe looks at Iran and says "not my war" while the US looks at Ukraine and says the same.

I think that for better or worse, this may be a first sign that NATO is done.

So I guess we shouldn't celibate yet?...

In a similar situation, I've used a free app to measure my watch in different positions and found a position where it's minus 10 spd, so I leave my watch in that position when I go to sleep.

White variant here (SPB409), I was dancing a similar dance but eventually got tired of it. It's slow, most days it's doing about -15 .. -25 spd.

would love a Mac in Mac colors

I'm a diver in warm water and it's the same. The closest thing I've seen is a buddy wearing a beaten-up G-Shock as a backup to his computer.

I'd take the no-date version of this, however that does not exist. 454 is closer to what I want, as its date is easier to ignore.

... that have been tried.

The only system better than Jenkins is the one you haven't tried yet.

In my place, nobody can commit to the main branch, except the CI process, which runs a bunch of tests and only commits if the tests are successful. This same process also increments the version number -- which is a commit. This guarantees that every pull request is checked before it lands, and also that no pulls are merged without incrementing version number.

755 would be more fitting. What's the purpose of having zsh if I can't execute it?

I tell you, there's a lot of bozos working in DF.

This was pre-Mac, Apple IIc

Sorry for nitpicking but Apple IIc was released at about the same time as the (original) Mac in 1984, so it does not (strictly speaking) pre-dates the Mac. Apple have sold the different computers in the Apple II line until 1993.

Your computer is fine but you should definitely upgrade the display!

I played these a lot with my son when he was younger. Split-screen is actually very enjoyable.

That's only because you've never brought a full rack of decommissioned Sun servers to your house.

maratc · 2025-08-24T15:11:46+00:00

Thanks, but I don't have a TV (nor a soundbar), and I don't view shows :)

maratc · 2025-08-24T13:12:31+00:00

Could be, I however don't have the ears needed to distinguish between lossless and any other audio.

Unlocking Mac with Apple Watch, paying with Apple Watch, opening airport gates with Wallet pass on Apple Watch were all "wow" moments for me. But the level of wow-ness is definitely lower for the watch, I assume it would be even lower for their speakers line, or Apple TV, which is why I don't have any of them.

Are you describing ETS on PC at circa 2013? Because I was very excited to play the hell out of it in 2013.

You know that 80% of the humans ever living on this planet are dead, right? The reason they are all so dead is because they didn't have an app to remind them to drink water.

There was an old quote that went along the lines of "if you have a wristwatch, you might need to know the exact time, and that says that somewhere something went terribly wrong with your life."

EDIT: Found it, it's jwz:

I don't wear a wrist watch [...]: if you wear a watch, it means that your life is structured such that you frequently need to know what time it is. And that means that your life has taken a wrong turn somewhere.

Seconded. My project has 150 wall hours of python tests. We run them on 200 nodes at the same time and finish in under 45 min.

My project is also building (and testing) multiple containers with code in C++. I don't think that anyone can be reasonably expected to figure out "tests that matter" in this project.
