Goodbye! lol

I don’t doubt it exists, but I’m kind of curious about workflows that still involve burning optical media in 2024.

Have you ever heard someone say “I can’t even” as a complete statement? Seems like the same sentiment/vibe.

Someone certainly has… IBM and Lenovo themselves! Both have sold external ThinkPad keyboards over the years that are (in some cases) literally laptop keyboards, with a TrackPoint, in housing.

This one’s top-tier.

Thank you for explaining this.

We have the worst fucking client.

GOG say the GOG Preservation Program is currently Windows-only

I’d be careful, I’ve had this happen twice.

Yeah, I feel like what that insight “means” is in the eye of the beholder. It’s definitely not great in the context of the original song either, but it’s a bit less in-your-face.

I think these characterizations point very strongly toward nostalgic longing and away from the glorification of addiction or even that of drug use.

There’s also an extra verse, which wasn’t in the radio edit, that I think further supports what you’re saying.

For what it’s worth, that line is a sample from an Ultramagnetic MCs song.

Pretty appropriate for today specifically.

They liked diggin’ down deep in the record bin!

Found the Slashdotter.

Implementing this like Gmail would mean doing it server-side. Handling it in the client would be more error-prone, since your device would have to have a good connection in the future, and if it doesn’t, handle retries and make sure never to double-post.
