No, The Who were one of the other bands.

Two em-dashes and emojis. I’m just sayin.

You shouldn’t’ve.

I wish that they’d had a startup screen that said “it’s now dangerous to turn off your computer”.

Didn’t New York legalize bodega lizards?

It’s a watering can’t.

A timely posting on another community.

Spot.

In case anyone thought that it was made-up

+R.

If you’d asked me, I’d have said that I always bought -R, but I guess I was different person back then.

I made some DVDs for someone recently. First I had to dig out my old laptop that has a drive. Then install authoring and burning software.

All the help forum posts that I found were at least 15 years old, I’m amazed that any of the recommended software still existed.

I found that I still had two plastic tubes of DVD+Rs!

I’m a big… proponent… of handheld rechargeable air blowers after getting one from Wolfbox.

I always felt like I was risking frostbite with the cans.

Rat. Onna stick!

A few years ago we were discussing how some companies were trying 4-day weeks and someone said that they’d like to try four 10-hour days instead of five 8-hour.

They could not imagine that it meant working fewer hours.

I’ve used bookshop.org which sells ebooks and has a reader, but you can nominate a local bookstore to get part of the profit.

No, I think that those are those ring things with a hole in them.

That sounds worth investigating, thanks! Amcrest needs an account for notifications afaik, but the Pro cameras can work just on a local network.

The app for them is awful. Then they made a new version that is awful in slightly different ways, so I’m interested in new options.

It mentions push notifications and emails, so I guess they must require an account, or can you configure them to use SMTP directly, as with the Amcrest Pro cameras?

It’s cool to have ID’d one of them, regardless.

My point was really how there was little to no verification on SMTP servers back then and that you could send mail with a simple terminal program, or, more practically, a script.

Not hacking, but using knowledge of the insecurity of SMTP servers of the time, to allow spoofing easy spoofing.

Not so easy to find SMTP servers to do that with now.
