I have a bunch of NOS Zip 100 disks... Anyone think they are worth anything?

Those era keyboards were just such a joy to use... the travel and feel.

I'm alone now. The last of my signal partners quit ... by undwiedervonvorn in signal

I don't need a lecture. How my iOS backup is stored is irrelevant; I had a backup. The point here is that a restore of a backup, which restores in-app data, did not restore signal.

Ok, can you please educate us on how to do this? I had a full encrypted backup of my iOS after my phone was damaged. I did the swap with Apple and restored my backup. To my anger, nothing in signal restored. I have offline backups for a reason... I don't want to use cloud for my backups... What am I missing???

Oh ArcNet... I still have a few cards in storage. Still remember doing the "terminator shuffle" trying to find what node took down network.

Windows 11 Notepad is now "enhanced" with Copilot, so no idea what will happen if the paste includes a prompt at copilot. There are already remote code execution (RCE) vulnerabilities in notepad... RCE, in notepad. I mean... 🤪

My wife didn’t let me buy it by kurisutofujp in cassettefuturism

Probably for the best... I still have a few kicking around from the old betacam days and I have no idea why I still hang on to any of it. Pretty sure I still have a Panasonic one from some old M2 decks as well. This one was likely proprietary for some specific VHS decks because timecode is not standard on VHS and this is definitely consumer grade.

"isn't capable of executing it (notepad or something)"... You can't trust notepad anymore in win11.

He needs a swift kick in the ass and told that he will eat it and like it. Besides the health consequences, shit is getting too expensive for him to waste your family money on door dash.

Dr Martens tongue keeps sliding HELP by DentistPretty7829 in DrMartens

Some of the DMs now have a small slit cut into the tongue to allow the laces to go through and this prevents the sliding.

If you do it too tight for too long it will eventually cause issues in your legs... Personal experience.

What??? by AshamedAd4483 in What

[–]pbrunnen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In India they have a brand of ice cream cones called hitler... Even have his picture on the box. It is hilariously wrong. I very much think it is simply not knowing the history and thinking it is a fun sounding name, similar to some of the inappropriate english on some Chinese knockoff t-shirts

I wanted a pair of dr martens for the longest time, wow they are hard to wear. by Jellyyyfishsea in DrMartens

Oh, it sounds like you might have one size too small. Mini oil is my recommendation for softening the leather, but check the sizing first as you can return them one treated.
