I bought my first sound card SB Pro 2.0 in the early 90s and it came with Dr Sbaitso. We had lots of fun making it say different things, especually in our language (not English). I…

My finnish phone number did not work either with web login, although I dont think I ever saved it anywhere back then. But succeeded to login with UID and password that I have lucki…

2558361. Uh-oh. It feels weird how my ICQ UID has stuck to my head although so well. Just tested the online version and it was funny to see the contact names. Too bad the messages …

Funny to see this link here, just after I saw this site yesterday. I was forced to google how to disable custom scrollbars when I was reading the "A simple hash table in C" link fr…

First I thought I had clicked something that showed really old postings. I had no idea MythTV would still be around. I never used MythTV though; I used Freevo in the 2000s. Worked …

Good memories! Not a small number of hours was spent reading TUTnn.txt files in the 90s. Learned a lot. Another great series at the time was the pcgpe (pc game programmers encyclop…

For such case, if I were to use this service I would hope the owner's own dead man's switch has been set up properly.

The title reminds me of an interesting article about old Soviet and eastern block computers in a Finnish computer magazine Skrolli a few years ago. They have done couple of interna…

The specs are there, under Wiki / Hardware specifications [0] - CPU/Soc: LPC11U6x (NXP ARM Cortex-M0+ processor, running at 48 MHz) - 256kB program memory – 36kB RAM – 4kB EEPROM -…

It is nice to see how replies have persons real name and organization in the header, something you rarely see in internet discussions today (FB being one big exception). Brings bac…

While this seems to be a neat thing, I am just wondering how common nowadays are door locks that actually have a hole through them? Where I come from, those locks could be seen in …

Heh, thanks for correcting the typo, that saved my Friday afternoon :) I had not heard car videos are so popular nowadays that their download speed can be used as a measure of mode…

Reminds me of Finnish "Frankenhornet"; they attached the forward-section of Canadian F-18 to their own damaged F-18. Unfortunately the thing crashed during test flight after the mo…

Heh, I had forgotten that already. I had so much fun with Dr. Sbaitso in the early 90s when I bought my first sound card, SB Pro 2.0. After all these years I can still remember the…

...but only in Soviet Russia, you insensitive clod!

This (monitor being removed from the system if I turn it off) must be the most braindead idea I've seen in a while. This is why don't turn off my monitor after work day any more, b…

Thanks! That (simulated device loss followed by all the steps you mentioned) is something I plan to do every now and then but so far I've never gotten around to actually doing it. …

May I ask what software you use mostly? I just checked couple of programs I have open on my computer right now and the floppy as save icon is very used still; tortoise svn client, …

> and Megadeth.) Laughed at that one.

Having never heard of OpenShot before, I needed a video video editor, saw OpenShot and downloaded it, managed to cut a short clip, add extra music track, do other small adjustments…

Yes, I like it too. I tried to resize the browser window horizontally and the page neatly splits the content in multiple columns. Very nice.

I've used the snapshot versions as my primary browser at work and home at least since... (referring again to KeePass, checking creation date of credentials for some vivaldi related…

It's been there at least 6 months already. I think I started using it around the time it was added. According to my password safe, I put the sync name/password in there on 1st of D…

Vivaldi does have a sync feature! But I don't know if you're aware of that already, and FF/Chrome sync have something special in their Sync that Vivaldi doesn't.

Off topic, but I am trying to get my head around the photo #14, it's almost like an optical illusion but not quite! Looks almost like a photo that has been mirrored vertically but …
