I mean, someone was still bowing to it… just not multiple people

This makes me feel things that I don’t want to feel

As someone that works at a storage devices company - we do still manufacture 10K HDDs. They are faster than the 7200s of the same spec, by nature. All 2.5” drives for enterprise systems. And will actually continue selling them until ~2030. That said, they’re all but obsolete at this point, and aren’t really being developed on any more.

Every 20 years? Could probably remake it every six months with how fast memes tend to cycle, lol

Sue-dough & s-s-h here. Can’t speak to zsh yet, haven’t actually talked about it w/ others yet. How about /etc/? Sometimes I call it “e-t-c” but others I say “etsee”

Most of the time, the product itself comes out of engineering just fine and then it gets torn up and/or ruined by the business side of the company. That said, sometimes people do make mistakes - in my mind, it’s more of how they’re handled by the company (oftentimes poorly). One of the products my team worked on a few years ago was one that required us to spin up our own ASIC. We spun one up (in the neighborhood of ~20-30 million dollars USD), and a few months later, found a critical flaw in it. So we spun up a second ASIC, again spending $20-30M, and when we were nearly going to release the product, we discovered a bad flaw in the new ASIC. The products worked for the most part, but of course not always, as the bug would sometimes get hit. My company did the right thing and never released the product, though.

I think it’s the caller ID. Should be easy, just have to get my mom to set it first.

Interesting, I guess I’ll have to try again. It kept telling me that there was an error processing when I tried locking it.

Fun fact: you can’t lock your credit through Innovis if the name on your phone number isn’t the same as your real name (for instance, I’m on my mother’s phone plan - I still have my own number, but I guess it’s under her name). I ran into this issue literally four days ago :/

I’ve had it on my daily driver for 6 or 7 years now and it makes me smile every time I see it even still. Reminds me of my childhood :)

DDR4 and DDR5 physically cannot fit into the same slot as one another. So if you’re upgrading to a CPU that only supports DDR5, you’ll need to upgrade your motherboard, too.

I’d also personally get a new boot drive. Aside from the fact that you’ll be forced to reinstall your OS, which will make everything run so much faster unless it’s already something that you do frequently, they’re very cheap and consistently getting faster and faster. Not to mention that drives don’t last forever. Trust me… I write firmware for SSDs.
