That’s good. So she doesn’t pick at your fries.

Why is it that all good calculator manufacturers also have a dark side? I have an RPN calculator made by HP, back in the day they made the holy Grail of RPNs the 32 SII. But they are the single worst thing that has happened to printer ink.

Because if you are a microchip manufacturer in the 70s:

  • Calculators are a reasonably good revenue stream once you’ve developed a chip, but needs a ton of upfront investment
  • Defence contractors have essentially unlimited budgets from DoD, need chips, and are more than willing to pay for all the R&D to get what they need

The entire US tech and aerospace industries are built on what is effectively massive government subsidies in the form of weapons contracts

Cobain does sound like a type of cheese…

LinkOpensChest_wav,

All Nirvana lyrics are just Kurt Cobain muttering the names of different types of cheese into the microphone

Really all it’s going to do is slap your hand with the bedazzled parts, I doubt there is enough energy to make them all fly unless they are pretty loose. But it would still hurt like hell cause I had a Toyota logo on the back of my hand after getting hit by the airbag in my car.

AFKBRBChocolate,

Those logo bruises are a thing. Imagine how much worse these would be if the logo was bedazzled.

KpntAutismus,

i would love to be branded with a toyota-logo tbh. but these seem like they heal without much scarring.

I_Fart_Glitter, in And why you gotta touch my back with those ice blocks 😩

I’m cold girl until the second I fall asleep, then my body heats up like a nuclear reactor and if I’ve fallen asleep with a heating pad (because cold) I wake up in 20 minutes all hot and A N G E R Y like the hulk.

MrBusiness,

So you the red hulk frfr

Kusimulkku,

This is my wife. Cold as hell when going to sleep, but in the time it takes me to fall asleep she goes from ice block to inferno.

I reckon it’ll probably play level six of the first GTA, which I presume is what you’re asking.

Nice build, though - most PCs of that era tend to be a bit dusty and yellowed, but that one’s a beauty. Takes me back.

Lord of the rings but the giant eagles are stealth bombers.

Zink,

There must be room in the world for a high budget “Mordor vs USA” parody movie.

Or maybe a 30 second comedy video.

Metz, in Will this run GTA 6 and why not?

I miss the days when computers were real MACHINES. With the CLACK of a fat button humming and buzzing to life. The whole experience was so different with much more audiovisual and haptic feedback. love it.

@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Some hard drives though man… like freaking tractors. I remember my first Quantum Fireball 3.2GB… it was the noisiest thing in the building.

Metz,

To be fair, that has not changed much. I have a Datacenter HDD in my desktop system and the first time powering that thing up sounded like it just shredded the plates and i’m going to be bombarded with shrapnels. But in normal operation, it makes a rather soothing (at least for me) clackety-clack sound. My other, normal desktop HDD not making any noise apart from spinning up is something that i find rather irritating tbh.

0x4E4F,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

You got used to the clackety-clack, that’s why it annoys you 😂.

It is true though. When I had my PC running 24/7, I couldn’t go to sleep if it was off (for some reason 😂).

Reminds me of the sniper in saving Private Ryan.

Put me within 1 mile of the furer, you can pack it up boys, wars over, we going home
