@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyOK, I found the CD burner. I'm going to burn a utilities CD. Any recommendations? So far I have WinRAR 2.06 and the network driver. I might also get Norton Commander for DOS mode.
On a related note, does anyone in #Minneapolis have a pair of 90s computer speakers they'd give away or sell? I […]
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gy#RetroComputing help
I would like to connect my brand new #Windows95 computer to the internet. My plan was to set up my laptop (running Linux) to forward the IP from the WiFi to the Ethernet adapter on the Pentium, because the router is too far away.
I have two problems:
1. I am NOT an expert […]
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyIt's a Pentium 1 by the way

@hosford42.techhub.social.ap.brid.gyReposted by @alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyPlease help! --- Current status, as of Oct 7: Our phone is cut off. We are now $397 behind on our phone bill, because we've been eating on the money we were trying to save. Thankfully I still have internet to ask for help, but I can't talk to recruiters or attend certain interviews without a […]
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyOne of the toddlers just had to poop at the park because he didn't have a diaper on. Successful learner! Also, luckily there are a lit of dog walkers at the park.
@hosford42.techhub.social.ap.brid.gyReposted by @alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyI hate our system. The whole thing is designed to fuck people over who are down on their luck. It's all based on the premise that if you're having a hard time, you must have fucked up somehow. You must be irresponsible and lazy, or evil an unloved by God, or some other moral failing. It can't be […]
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyDoes anyone here in #Minneapolis (Longfellow area) have knowledge of reasonable childcare? I've heard there are such things as nanny shares that might be more reasonable...
I really have to find something for the twins by the time I start my new job next week.
Boosts welcome
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyDuring the Greater Depression, so many people starved that the State brought in mobile crematoria. When the community destroyed those machines, it was one of the first great actions that eventually led to the independent organization of this city. The people who burned the machines and chased […]
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyI have an absolutely strange solarpunk microfiction cooking, don't let me forget to actually write it down here later
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyFeeling sad about my #GameDev project that hasn't got off the ground in 20 years. Maybe someday
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyGot my new job laptop. I haven't opened it yet, I hope it's not Windows EDIT: It's a Mac. Phew
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gyNot like, two days straight working 8 hours a day. I do have a life. But over the course two days, I occasionally puzzled over it
@alter-kaker.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gySpecifically the third parameter. Now that's what I call a calling convention!

או! עוד דבר, לבטיחות. אם יש סיכוי להתקל במשהו שיכול לגרום לזה שתעופי קדימה, צריך להשען כמה שיותר אחורה, וכאילו לדחוף את המושב למטה עם הישבן כשהידיים על הכידון ברגע שהגלגל הקדמי נתקל בזה. מצטער שזה קצת הפוך מהעצה הקודמת... בזה יצא לי להשתמש פחות.
