I was single, living alone (+ 2 cats, if they count) in a one bedroom apartment in North Beach 15 years ago on a $90k/year salary. I even had a parking space and a car! I can under…

Foobar2000 is not Windows only. https://www.foobar2000.org/

I'm running it on dual DGX Sparks.

The DAD AX32/AX64 is such a thing.

Multiple day outages in Winter are not unusual in our part of Maine. Nearly everyone has a whole home generator for good reason.

Do you mean GEODNET?

Just a bit under 15 years after we did this at Twitter.

I feel attacked.

We never actually had a literal “Bieber Box”, but the joke took off. Hot shards were definitely an issue, though.

Yes, we used the Yahoo! “Feeding Frenzy” paper as the basis for the design of Haplocheirus (the timeline service).

Amazing to see this happening. I wrote the non-moving Immix collector at Twitter for our Ruby runtime, Kiji. Good luck!

It is also occasionally a wedding venue.

As a current semi-pro trombonist, I had the same reaction. Relevant aside: Alan Kaplan has been recording Jacob Collier transcriptions for his YouTube channel. Check out “Moon Rive…

Sweden is not Switzerland. And he died almost ten years ago.

The rack I’m referring to is in my home. YMMV, of course.

I’m paying about $50 service fees for the two blades currently out for repair. The 10” replacements cost over $200, and the 8” dado would require buying a new stack… around $250. T…

Yes, and they are consumable and replaceable by design, which goes to my point: the blade is not irreparably destroyed by the activation. The missing teeth need to be replaced and …

I have had two brake activations in as many weeks, one on a dado stack (don’t ask). Neither destroyed the blade. Both blades will be back in service within a week. Just putting out…

I still keep a maxed out Octane2 in running order for posterity. Occasionally logging in to it reminds me just how a desktop environment should feel. We truly have lost something s…

“Cum tree” doesn’t do it for you?

Facebook was where Thrift originated.

There aren’t many of these venues left. Keep showing up!

Both uses of “crud” and “fried” are parts of the lexicon where I grew up, nowhere near Antarctica. I suppose they must(?) have been imported from somewhere, but neither seems very …

Entomology is the study of insects. You mean etymology. :)
