…that’s the POWER model: the unit posted above is the consumer version with the SX chip, no math coprocessor and fewer function keys…

…i’m surprised to see DHL rank so highly in that list: what’s their domestic market focus, business-to-business freight logistics?..i seldom see DHL packages and when i do they’re almost exclusively of international origin…

…NeXTstep was built on mach and, although i’m unsure if any antecedents remain in macOS, it was certainly production-ready in its day; i remember a couple of decades ago there were stopgap versions of the HURD built on top of mach instead of their own microkernel but i thought that was only ever intended as a temporary workaround…

…i presume on that basis that sustained developer interest was its greatest hurdle, no pun intended…

edit: …is this the post-mortem you mentioned?..

…i’m absolutely ignorant of its current state, but every time i’ve checked in on progress of GNU/hurd over the past three decades, it still hasn’t matured into a stable production-ready platform: i’m not sure if that’s an artifact of technical viability or developer interest…

…i think pornhub’s leaving money on the table not starting a SFW video platform…

…do you ever smell things which nobody else notices?..

…my original aftershox aeropex eventually developed a stereo imbalance after about four years of daily (all day) use, but they were fantastic for a collaborative office environment where other headphones get in the way; i recently replaced them with shox openrun pro which offer improved bass response but are otherwise nearly indistinguishable (although i prefer the original UI voice)…

…of course they’re not high-fidelity headphones, but especially with the improved bass i find myself enjoying music in a way nothing short of speakers can replicate in a shared workspace; i just forget that they’re there more often than not…

…they make for transparently fluent remote conferences, too: it’s kind of funny, since i brought mine into the studio after the pandemic, they caught on and now half our office wears them…

…with the prevalence of clickbaity bottom-feeder news sites out there, i’ve learned to avoid TFAs and await user summaries instead…

(clicks through)

…yep, seven nine ads plus another pop-over, about 15% of window real estate dedicated to the actual story…

Take a bath. And get a job.

(but yeah, eleven is awful)

…i’m surprised pornhub hasn’t rolled out an all-ages video site…

…well i guess draft messages in outlook can make-do in a pinch…
