@khinsen LOL

@nazokiyoubinbou Cars expand to occupy all of the available space.

@LeadedSolder

@LeadedSolder Hold tight, Moore's law will hopefully shrink those things one day.

@parisba I'm sorry for what you're going through.

This is not unique to Apple though, it happens also with Google Play as gift cards are massively used for all sorts of scams, frauds, and money laundering. I wouldn't redeem a gift card with a pole, even if bought from a reputable business.

@jbc Also because it's an issue I hadn't given much thought.

@akkartik @cdegroot

This post makes a good point on naming software systems and libraries. However, in a rich ecosystem the namespace of descriptive names may quickly fill up.

@lproven There's quite a lot of scam, fraud, and money laundering activity around gift cards also for Google Play, leading to the consequences for unsuspecting users that this post describes. I wouldn't redeem a gift card with a pole, not even one sold by a reputable business.

Drop what you're doing and listen to @masinter Larry Masinter talk about computing history and lore. He tells first hand stories on the early web, Gopher, Hypertext Coffee Pot Control Protocol, mailto:, and a whole lot more including Interlisp.

@Jayhoffmann may be interested.

@dougmerritt I wonder whether similarly clear and interesting tutorials on other topics were posted on Usenet back then.

@etienne_obriot

@etienne_obriot A timeless classic.

@thelastpsion In a way it's a reflection of the many niches and vendors the much more diverse computing market had back in the day.

@icm Can you please set the correct language of the post so that we can get the translation option?

Enjoying watching creative people enjoying doing what they love. What else could I ask of my fediverse feeds?

@alextheuxguy These newfangled portable devices look promising.

@PurpleJillybeans Great device, I had a 5MP.

@psychotimmy Ryan Burnside is using Common Lisp on Medley Interlisp:

@hp I always wondered what it means specifically that the BIOS is modular.

@chainq Great idea.

@muzej I used [2].

@billgoats Is that what device hoarding looks like?
