“I’ve never installed gahnoo slash linucks” -RMS
I used to work in a very very large well known hotel, ozone machines were only used to remove cigarette smells from guests who broke the rules.
And no one can be in the room while the ozone machine was running. They even had auto-shutoff timers so you could retrieve the machine after it had turned itself off and the room air was breathable again.
It takes several hours to run. This isn’t something you do to every room every time.
It was great because none of them secured their protocols.
Everyone on Linux just used Pidgin and you had all your contacts and chats on every service all in one client.
It’s for accountability.
How do you undeniably prove that a random person won the grand prize, and that the lottery employees didn’t just embezzle the money for themselves? Dox the winner!
Yeah it sucks, but there’s not really another “undeniable” way to do it. If they kept it anonymous and hired an auditor to verify it was fair, how do you prove the auditor isn’t in on the scam?

And then I remember that IE and ActiveX existed.
Things never change.
Sorta. It’s not that they don’t conform to standards.
It’s that they don’t adopt new standards.
The newest iPhone still handles SMS and MMS the same way the iPhone 3G did back in 2008.
It’s like if Ford refused to add CD players to their cars and insisted you use their proprietary “Ford Media Disk”
And if you don’t like that, fine! It still has a tape player!
As everyone else said, they’re floppy disks with the plastic case removed.
Since you found them in a church, could they have belonged to a church bell system? I’ve seen other church bell systems in the past where the songs came on weird mediums.
This is just a random guess, I don’t know why anyone would remove the casing.
I was forced to learn HTML as a 9-year-old so I could make sick Pet Pages on Neopets and show off to all my Neofriends.

16·10 months agoThe X in DirectX is a placeholder, because it’s a suite of APIs.
DirectShow, DirectSound, DirectMusic, Direct3D, ect.
Its like “Direct____”

There’s a selection here that all look pretty decent

It looks like it was made in the 1950’s
Meanwhile, in 2023, iPhones from 2018 still get the latest iOS. And iPhones from 2015 are still getting security patches.
Holding the breaker like that won’t actually do anything to stop it from tripping.
I stopped using the Snap Store the moment I realized the majority of the Snaps were uploaded by totally random people who have zero relationship with the app itself.
For example: https://snapcraft.io/publisher/kz6fittycent
You’re telling me this guy is personally involved with all 43 snaps he’s published? You want me to believe he’s going to dutifully maintain all 43 of them?
Yeah. Okay. Sure. Totally.
It’s like, there’s a man on the street corner selling chicken nuggets he swears he got from McDonalds. Do you want to buy nuggets from him or just walk around the corner and get them from McDonalds yourself?
