@mischievoustomato @slashdot @branman65 @SuperSnekFriend also windows 11 was basically the tech version of cash for clunkers in a wide scale that's why there's a whole linux push now with right to repair advocates because people were hoping ms would blink like they did with xp and 98 and they didn't

@mint @slashdot @branman65 @SuperSnekFriend @mischievoustomato this is what people did with powerbook 540s before 3d printing existed

@mischievoustomato @slashdot @branman65 @SuperSnekFriend thinkpads too, he loves those for a reason
But Dell consumer/vostro? HP consumer? Lenovo Ideapad/Thinkbook? Asus? total ass. The plastic detaches from the metal screw and when you want it fixed they say SAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR IT IS YOUR FAULT YOU BROKE IT YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN ADP

@branman65 @SuperSnekFriend @slashdot >I do predict attempt at a cash for clunkers program but for used devices

Why would you need that when you can just lock down phones, force phones to not get software updates after so and so, slow them down with forced updates, etc? Or the whole note 7 "lol we disabled your phone" update?

@SuperSnekFriend @slashdot @branman65 The only ones that aren't are desktops and laptops, and they have their own clever ways of making you buy a new one

ps5 wins

@allison @waifu yeah but i don't see people wanting to fuck ai the same way they wanna fuck demons on the internet

imagine if furries were indian
would you even be able to tell a difference?

@phnt @mint for context when it was dropped you could get a pc-9821ap2 or similar model with ym2610 sound for under $100, and the western pc-98 discord community was kinda newish still

Now prices rose because people got interested in playing old-school vns and early touhou etc.

fediverse LAN party

@mint ah so what version would be needed then

@mint yeah so the idea here is I'd have to probably use a slot 1 model or k6 swapped model with a higher amount of ram and either 2k, some freebsd, or whatnot
I have a p6 model but a Pentium pro 200 is kinda slowish

@phnt @mint freebsd lasted a lot longer compared to netbsd

i wonder if it's possible to host snac2 on a pc-98

@Jonny @jeff @Scarlett @pepsi_man @jeffcliff this you?

@jeff i can't wait for the bluesky dictatorship

Man the forever war ads are getting desperate

@theorytoe basically there's some retarded Jerry Springer esque fight between the guy bringing the Pebble back, and the Rebble devs over software licensing and hosting old apps and some other gay shit that sounds like internet beefing to me.
