@hotdog_y2k @bandanakin @SurreMediaFacts They're also used on major networks to signal local ad insertion. When the station is playing an ad for something local to your area, that's not Nick, that's the cable TV company that Nick signalled to do it. On old tapes you'll hear the tones about 15-30 seconds before ad break.

While Nickelodeon aired an episode of Dennis the Menace, it suddenly displayed a channel slate for almost 2 minutes before changing to a partially-ran bumper. DTMF tones could be heard during the slate was on. [1/2]

Liberals will ask, "Why can't you just enjoy it?" at the same time other Liberals post, "Everything I do in life is with the intention of making you miserable". People are not angry because they can't enjoy things. They are angry because they correctly understand that the things they once loved are being converted into weapons for an ideology that hates them. There is a very obvious sadistic side to Progressivism's hijacking of things like movies and video games. These people do not love the media they're destroying. They're not trying to make something good. They just want revenge against the normal world. They want the actual fans to feel alienated and dispossessed. That's the entire point. And every so often, someone is bold enough to admit it.

Being anti-woke has got to be the most miserable hobby Everything angers you and makes you seethe that you can’t enjoy a single piece of media. We haven’t gone by a week without those people melting down, an insane level of sensitivity.

@liambrefberinn Ew, you want Node.js and react in your BIOS?😜 I suppose you could set up an emulator like QEMU and try to fit that into CoreBOOT for fun.

@TrisH0x2A I remember when 32MB was huge, after using Windows 3.1 with only 8MB for a few years.

remember when 512MB RAM was considered massive? programmers wrote code like every byte mattered. optimized everything. squeezed performance from nothing. suddenly nobody cared about efficiency anymore. just throw more RAM at it, problem solved. now we have 32GB RAM and Slack uses 2GB just to show text messages. Electron apps eat memory like it's free candy. we got better hardware and built worse software. abundance made us lazy.

@brockpierson - Funny comedy skits - The Jerky boys and prank phone calls - Radio stations making funny parody songs or funny things - Random foreign songs because I was bored of mainstream music at the time - That song about Barney the purple dinosaur on fire😂

@SiliconForested Installing Linux in 1999: If I modify my XFree86 config the right way and write the correct modelines I might get it to actually work with my PCI video card and monitor. The distribution has a script to automate this by asking a bunch of questions though.

@Rhonin_df @nym Laptops and mobile devices have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. There exist APIs to send and receive raw packets on those interfaces. What could you form among those for resilient decentralized communication?

@nym We don't have long. Start developing P2P & decentralized, offline-first apps. I was thinking: starlink is fantastic. But wouldn't it be more versatile to make a dish (receiver) which could work with any satellite internet provider? No vendor lockdown this way.

@davepl1968 Grab DOSBox-X and an actual copy of Windows 3.1 and you could run the software with a VM that's the equivalent of a mid 1990s 486 with less resources.

@xsphi If they care, they probably hide it because of adults who would probably never take anything they say seriously anyway.

why are teenagers, as a class, so incapable of political self-defense? they're on the verge of losing access to large swaths of the internet, social media, and culture generally, and they... don't seem to care at all?

@A_Absol_Enjoyer @xsphi Second issue is using "all teens are morons" to help justify keeping them off of the internet entirely, then saying that since >90% of internet usage is social media, and "nobody" ever visits anything off that list, that the internet is social media and therefore bad for you.

@A_Absol_Enjoyer @xsphi My main issue is that you think all teenagers are incompetent morons aka "retards" and I think that's far from true. Perhaps some lack life experience. Surely many are competent in something by that age and learning more by the day.

@A_Absol_Enjoyer @xsphi Facebook today is a popular place for old people to post about their old hobbies and share their stupid Minions memes 🤣 The younger generation left long ago.

@A_Absol_Enjoyer @xsphi Your own screenshot says it correlates with the advent of *social media*, not the internet. The internet is not social media. To make an analogy from the past, the shows on TV are not reality, even when "reality TV" became popular.
