    In those days, PCs came with a crate of snall black connectors called jumpers, that you had to place in specific ways to arrange your IRQs and more.
    Mainboard and BIOS settings were also not always configured with sane defaults, so it could be quite the puzzle.

    This is the best answer. Torrents / possibly illegal downloads are a big no-no in many countries, if you’re truly a movie addict: buy a portable dvd drive and a bunch of movies (2nd hand can be very cheap nowadays). Additional advantage: internet access is still not very good in many places. On VPNs: there are several options, a commercial one like Nord, your company’s (never, ever torrent over your company networks!) or a self hosted. My home router can run ipsec and wireguard services, yours possibly too. DO REMEMBER: VPN traffic is very recognisable, if the local ISP thinks it’s sus, questions may be asked; better be careful.

    Now that we’re discussing Laura Lamer and her presumed copulation with Diaper Drump….

    What happened to Melanomia, that faded model and speech duplicater that happened to be the official wife? Anyone seen her in the last few months?

    Now, there are people who have a medical condition that causes body odour, so let me say that they are not necessarily evil. Trump, however…

    Sticker Mule is - was - one of the better sticker printers, be it for laptops, packages etc. That includes hologram and glitter stickers, and I will say that the quality was always excellent. They also have great deals.
    And as you will know by now, one of their founders/bosses decided to go full Drumpf.
    In public.
    Per the company account.
    On X.
    I am sad to say, I have to find another place to get stickers and stuff, Redbubble is nice but no glitter :(

    They have not, they just print what you provide. Long ago they had a store, where customers could sell their designs, and these designs were never explicitly wrong but some were… challenging. But as said, nowadays you can only have your design printed, and it’s up to you what it is and what you will do with it.

    Exactly. There’s a reason no insurance company wants to take on nuclear power plants and countries have to.

    In all the famous cases, Chernobyl, Fukushima, Three Mile Island, and Sellafield, it was close enough to a real disaster. Sure, only some people died, some more got radiation poisoning, cancer, even more lost their pets, their homes, their livelihoods, quite some animals died… thank god that’s “low on the harmless scale”.

    I agree, but it would also not surprise me if Facebook’s grubby algorithm will hide such posts from - in this case - CPS employees, to prevent takedown of those very profitable posts.

    Man, what a disappointing article, I remember El Reg for being real sharp journalism, not a partner page piece of crap.
    Take this revolting example:

    Many of these PCs were bought during COVID and now we are four [or] five years after they were bought and they will have to be replaced.

    Have to be replaced? Just for being 4 years old? Aside from the environmental impact, and aside from W11 being more shit than diarrhoea from a ceiling fan: these PCs work perfectly fine. For both my enterprise and entertainment purposes. New mainboards wouldn’t add much, and neither would W11, which biggest novelties are a broken control panel, a misplaced start menu and - for additional money - an unneeded and immature “AI” that will basically target me ads.

    From the text, I conclude that the team trained El Douché apparently successfully, but the moment he approached the stage something popped in his head, the whole house of cards tumbled down.

    VBox could be nice, but Oracle is on a licensing hunt for people who install the extension pack on potentially work-related systems. Technically it is free for personal use, but is like explicitly inviting the vampire into your home - nothing might happen, but you wouldn’t know until the moment you have 2 tiny holes in your neck.
