Yeah, but it just worked better. I remember doing all the cludges and hacks for IE. The bad taste in my mouth is still largely the reason I hate doing web ui work.

It’s interesting to see the similarities between the market when IE was king and now with chrome. I prefer to use Firefox, but there are just so many sites that only work with chrome. Etc.

Well when it was just IE, Netscape and Opera… IE was the best browser. It won. Hands down.

Thanks

What about scams you’re born into, but stayed in waaaay to long? If so Mormonism and the Republican party.

Idk I kind of liked Uru. Love me some Peter Gabriel.

Did you read the books? They’re not bad.

Myst, I wanted to write books that linked to worlds. Figured the closest thing was programming.

Civilization 1, patients, economics, frustration.

Doom, was just a shit ton of fun and got me into networking so we could play against each other.

Tigtone. It’s so weird and disturbing to watch,yet hilarious. Perfect

Yeah, I’ve got a lot of sisters.

One time I was out walking someplace and a woman was walking about 20 feet in front of me. I just took out my phone and called my wife and rather loudly announced where I was walking to, asked her about her day etc. The woman visible seemed to relax.

I was raised Mormon. Finally left in my 40s.

I always go with experiences over stuff. I want to do something with the people I care about and collect memories instead of things. It gives people the freedom to be as frugal or lavish as they want and I don’t have to store or return anything.

10 people were killed in an oil well explosion in 1955. A large group of people had gathered to watch the well be torpedoed (early form of fracking). There’s a small plaque at the site now. It’s next to a pretty good brewery. https://wchsutah.org/miscellaneous/escalante-well-explosion.php

Kind of… It’s really that weird bridge period between the two generations. 1980 seems to be the sweet spot. The further your birth year is from it, in either direction, the less tech savvy they seem to be.

A few years ago, my wife and I left the Mormon church. That helped a lot. Along that line coffee makes me happy.

Pretty sure they’d take everything you just wrote and say, “that sounds like critical race theory, which Jesus said was bad.”

Similar boat. Getting my snoring looked into. Got a sleep study done and now I’m having an ent do a scoping to see what’s actually vibrating and what can be done.

The trouble for me was always getting people to use the controllers. I had some success with some family members using bubbleupnp on their Android phones. But the separation between sources, renderers and controllers is a little confusing for non technical people

DLNA is going to be your best bet, but it’s such a deep and convoluted rabbit hole. There’s a lot of ways to configure a setup.

Lemmiversary?
