brotundspiele,

Hast Du schonmal einen Schufa-Bericht für Lindner angefragt, oder woher weißt Du, dass er keinen Eintrag hat?

brotundspiele,

Sie müssen mindestens eine Zahl verwenden. Deshalb gibt es in Schleswig-Holstein vermutlich auch Wakendorf 2.

brotundspiele,

Passiert das nicht sowieso von alleine? Leider komme ich erst in 2 Wochen nach Österreich, um nachzusehen ob die auch gut mit unserem Deutschen Wasser umgehen. Nicht, dass sie es bis dahin schon nach Ungarn ausgequellt haben.

brotundspiele,

Ebend, es muss heißen “CDU König vong Internetz”.

brotundspiele,

Ach deshalb gibt es hier im Supermarkt Bananen, die extra nochmal in Plastik eingepackt sind? Und ich dachte schon, das liegt einfach daran, dass der Supermarkt die Umwelt hasst.

brotundspiele,

Nein, Faschismus kommt von Fasching, weil man bei beidem so lustige Verkleidungen anzieht, und sich komische Bärte anklebt.

Faschieren kommt hingegen von Fahrschein, weil das ist, was der Kontrolleur mit Dir macht, wenn Du keinen hast.

brotundspiele,

Lebensfaschiertes: Einfach die Schale mit essen.

brotundspiele,

Dann warte mal ab, bis Du nach Hamburg kommst.

brotundspiele,

Why would anyone ever need more than 80x25?

Aber mal ganz was anderes: Was soll mir dieses Michmich sagen?

brotundspiele,

So you’re saying that it’s easier to learn C++ than git, because you only need one command (g++ foo.cpp -o foo) instead of many?

brotundspiele,

Ich bin ca. 1996 zu Linux gewechselt, und auch danach ist Windows weiter vor die Hunde gegangen. Das ist also ein permanenter Prozess.

brotundspiele,

My favorite error message of all times:

You don’t exist, go away!

brotundspiele,

I have switched ESC and Caps Lock for years now. It really makes things so much easier, but now I am the guy in that meme. At least partly: I struggle to find the ESC key on other people’s computers, but sadly I’m not 23 anymore.

It’s “setxkbmap -option caps:swapescape” btw.

brotundspiele,

In my last job I had colleagues using Windows, and they were super chill. When they turned on their computer in the morning, it took 20 minutes to boot, install the latest updates and log on. I had to start working right away, while they were having their third coffee and second cigarette, waiting for their computer to get ready. I’m sure it wasn’t healthy, but relaxing.

brotundspiele,

They were developing software for Windows Phone, so: No, in retrospect they didn’t do anything useful.

brotundspiele,

Ich kenne die Wörter, aber sie ergeben keinen Sinn. Kann es sein, dass ich einen Schlaganfall habe? 😏

brotundspiele,

Das tollste ist ja, wenn man so richtig müde ist, beschließt jetzt ins Bett zu gehen, aber nach dem pinkeln und Zähne putzen plötzlich wieder so wach ist als hätte einem jemand Christel Mett in die Zahnpasta gemischt.

brotundspiele,

Weren’t they also the first ones to add ads to their start menu, a decade before Microsoft? I’m not an Ubuntu user, so I didn’t care enough to remember the details, but I recall something about them sending your search strings to Amazon to present you with ads.

brotundspiele,

Volkswagen is a brand; PC is not.

IBM-PC is a brand as well, (or at least it has been, in the 1980s). And just as with the PC, the term didn’t start as a brand, but it became one by being used like one.

That’s why we differentiate between desktop PCs and laptop/tablet PCs in the industry.

I don’t know who “we” is, but I don’t differentiate between desktop PC and laptop in my industry, I differentiate between desktop and laptop. And a tablet PC is a tablet that is (in principle) compatible with the IBM PC (as it’s running on x86 compatible processors) as opposed to “tablet computer”, “Android tablet” or “iPad” which are tablets that are not necessarily PC compatible.

When they added PC to software designation back in the day, they were letting you know it was specifically for a personal computer; not a VHS, not a record, not a game cartridge, not a cassette tape, etc.

Oh, that must be the reason for software packages that were labeled as “PC/Mac” when they contained both versions. So I would know I could run it on any personal computer AND on macs.

When Apple started marketing their PCs, they built their own unique system that wasn’t compatible with other PCs

Now this is plain bullshit. In the era Apple started making their personal computers, there was no standard they could have been compatible with. There were Comodores based on the 6502 processor, there were Tandy’s with Z80 CPUs, a few years later there were Atari’s 68k based computers, and none of those were compatible with each other. Only when IBM released their PC and other companies started to build PC compatible systems, a standard emerged. But even then, it took another decade for all the competitors to die out, to make the PC the default platform. Apple didn’t refuse to be compatible, they were just the only other platform of that pre-PC era that survived.

I’m pretty sure, the government didn’t just refuse to buy Apple computers because they were not compatible, but because they were not the market leader. And deciders like to buy the market leaders products even if they are crap, because then you’ll always have the excuse that you bought from the market leader. They wouldn’t have bought Amiga or Schneider either.

They’re still fighting against Right to Repair laws, as they want to force you to return to them directly for any maintenance.

As do dozens of other companies. Don’t get me wrong, I have no sympathies for Apple, they are a shitty company that rips off their customers as well as their employees and the environment. They do the bare minimum of what is still legal, just like thousands of other shitty companies out there. But they do not sell PCs (at least since 2023).
