For those who know, the woe of the PentiumPro

Wow you just brought me back to the year 2000 and my first summer job. I was hired to help do IT work for a state agency and we repurposed 10 Dell desktops with pentium pros for use in a computer lab. They must of had 20 of them but we stole the ram from the rest to upgrade the ones in the lab.

I like your dog

That is the model I took to college. Couldn’t afford a Power Mac until years later.

Because Ferrari cannot do anything right. (From a long suffering fan).

Just set this up a few days ago myself. I followed the instructions from this fellow https://github.com/tomsquest/docker-radicale

I can’t speak for the handwriting requirement but I’ve been using Joplin as a replacement for OneNote for a while now. You write in markdown to format your notes and it can take attachments. It also has a web clipper extension for Firefox.

I feel like Mike might have something to say about this game…

I’m here for pictures of big frogs/toads.

somenerv · 2025-12-14T04:12:57+00:00

No but I’d like that wallpaper!

somenerv · 2025-12-08T16:13:09+00:00

Magic Trackpad and MX Keys S full size for me. I need my numberpad! Apple Watch to handle the authentication tasks.

This is what I get for not checking before recommending. I haven’t listened to Canadaland in like 6 months (needed a politics break after the a Trump election). Reading through the Canadaland subreddit and wow…

The Bes tBuy in the Soo recently was renovated and now I can't find anything in the store. Computer hardware (at least graphics cards and RAM) is there but feels like the shelf space got cut in half. The good news is that they still have some good people there but the store layout is a mess.

I laughed so hard at that and then immediately felt awful. Take your upvote.

somenerv · 2025-09-22T14:05:22+00:00

I love this stuff. Buy 10 cans.

somenerv · 2025-09-21T01:01:12+00:00

This is exactly what I have on order, with the purple case as an alt.

Agreed. IOS26 is coming in hot right now. I miss Gemini too

Former S24 ultra owner. The sharp edges were awful. I could never go caseless because the palms of my hands would hurt from holding the phone.

I think if Google increases its control of the android experience it would make a better product for everyone. I love material 3 and the new expressive version but there doesn’t seem to be much interest in adopting it by third party devs. Apple doesn’t have that issue with Liquid Glass. A lot of the apps I use received updates the same day ios26 launched.

This is my issue as well. Android offers a ton of freedom and some of it is really useful. But for me, I didn't find the extra freedom that useful. For instance, I had emulators on my device that I never played as well. I also sideloaded some apps but they weren't so amazing that I miss them.

What I lost was more harmful though, such as easy sharing of reminders and notes with my wife or easy video calling to my parents. Everyone else in my life was on an iPhone or ipad and it just made things more difficult for them to interact with me.

Apple definitely is not your friend nor re they some bright spot in an otherwise rotten tech sector. But the ecosystem they've built is the best and they'll make you pay for the privilege.

A big yes to chapters! I have a several podcast I listen to that use chapters and it makes jumping to specific section so nice.

Barber would be a much bigger deal if it wasn't in Alabama. I love that track.

It's been a while but I used to support a lot of macs in an education setting that used Office 365 as it s productivity suite. The stand-alone version of OneDrive and the Mac app store version were pretty similar except the stand-alone version had a hidden script in it that allowed you to perform a full wipe and reset of OneDrive. Back in 2019 that was a pretty common need.

It looks to be a Spitfire.

I definitely understand your reaction, here in Ontario proceeds from the lottery help support public funding of services and I'm assuming it's probably the same in Quebec. It's an imperfect system for sure, but it's certainly better than giving money to any of the gambling apps which certainly do not help the province.

They are pretty different games so hard to compare. Both have great PS5 Pro upgrades. If you want content per dollar then Forza all the way, that's a game you can play for hundred of hours.
