You can see our light pollution fillth from space as well. For a long while now.

Not too many care about that either.

Security updates should be mandatory. Something like safety recalls on a vehicle.

Our data. About us. Bought by our government. With tax money we gave them. How can I get a piece of this pie?

Yes, these companies they are buying from are getting rich off our tax money. Boycott Google? Not gonna happen. They just get your money indirectly.

Give it some time. Everyone's life priorities will change and something like this won't be at the top of the list.

And just like that, uninstalled their app from my Android mobile device. It wasn't that great anyway.

No mention of Mosaic (first web browser)? What sucked was you generally had to compile it yourself. That meant installing all the build tooling, building it, and turning it loose. Oh. Windows? Lol. No go. Gotta get an early version of Linux up and running first. That usually meant 20+ diskettes of Slackware installation.

But then you could surf in all the basic HTTP glory. It was a new world and it was awesome.

I got flagged on my work computer for connecting to derp foo (probably for an image). To satisfy security, had to remove all chrome extensions and reset chrome.

So I don't use Lemmy on my work computer anymore. That's sad.

 

The police department is asking everyone to calm down and deescalate when on the roads. Going so far as "Here in the State of Texas, you have to be an adult to have a driver's license. Make adult decisions."

  • Hello World
  • Read a file
  • Write a file
  • Read a file and loop through it line by line, printing each one (for loop or equivalent)
  • Program that consists of 2 or more source files

What I'm getting at is instead of a full program, write code snippets and small programs. In doing this eventually an idea for something larger will pop into your head.

Same (Fira Code). And use it for my terminals as well.

They're exploiting Windows driver signing using a certificate loophole and some OS hooks to trick the date verification.

Slackware. Fall of '93. Well over 20, 3.5" diskettes. Sacrificed my OS/2 machine to do this.

 

The blue flame was part of the Fort Worth's skyline since 1957 but in 2018 it had to be taken down because the structure was beginning to fail.

It's back again.

If you subscribe to a few communities, start watching the posters. Find a few posters you like, click through to their profile and see what other communities they follow for ideas.

 

Despite the headline, only one is in Fort Worth and that's Goldee's Barbecue. The other 2 are in Tarrant County, but in Arlington and Grapevine.

 

One is the Fort Worth Public Market near Henderson and Lancaster that is soon to be "restored and revamped."

The other is the Berry Theater near Berry and Hemphill. The demolition of that structure has been paused.

 

The adjustments are to "beat the heat." It goes into effect on July 10. Neither the article or the sites web pages state when summer hours end. That is unfortunate.

Fort Worth Botanic Garden summer hours

From June to August, the heat wave claimed 1,700 lives and cost $71 million dollars (adjusted for 2022) in agricultural damage.
