When did WhatsApp start allowing signups without a phone number?

Mint offers 32bit support, unless you’ve got a really old cpu.

Interesting. This could be a decent secondary use for my VPS

Ok so what is pangolin? I’m only familiar with the animal and its role in the pandemic.

Edit: someone doesn’t like jokes I guess?

Half the people at my local LUG would espouse beliefs like this post unironically.

Took me a minute to track it down. It was her bachelorette party.

Nice try, Guardian social media team. I’m still not giving you my dollarbucks.

I’m still waiting for my butter robot.

This looks very cool, but I feel like its failure modes would be brutal. I’ve seen some failed prints turn into hairy balls of melted hate, but upside down…I feel like its begging to have a print adhesion failure just break everything.

Because only rich Ukranians could afford them, and the rich ones fled Ukraine when the war kicked up.

To be fair, I was using ultrahle, which was a very high level emulator targeting mario64 and specifically needing a GLIDE-supporting card. It did well enough on ocarina as (my understanding is that) it used the same graphics engine as Mario64 and therefore the same function calls… but there were many other games that wouldn’t run at all.

The first time I played ocarina of time, it was on a k6-2/450 with a voodo3-3000. It ran well enough that I considered it on par with a real N64. Edit: this would have been 2002/2003.

I’m sorry. I agree with you that your take is valid. I once had to explain to the assistant to the CFO why it was a bad idea to whitelist a gambling website (“they’re doing a fun play for the world Cup that uses points instead of real money’”) for the team handling customer card payments…and even then she still wanted it done until I told her she had to officially sign a release accepting responsibility for negative outcomes.

My untreated ADHD was a huge asset when I worked customer support for an airline. I had tons of customer complements and I was hailed as an example by area management on how to balance corporate costs with getting customers what they want.

I utterly failed managing a team of 15 people doing the exact same job. The multiple competing priorities on any given day often left me in task paralysis.

Now I work in I.T. and my ADHD is an asset again. I complete most days work in 3-5 hours and play video games the rest of the time.

Yes, I have the where-does-this-thing-go drawer, for food prep items that don’t fit elsewhere, and also the junk drawer which includes things like

• An iPhone charger (usb)
• 2 sets of analog headphones
• A dishwasher cleaning tablet

So…there you go.

Sorta like linear vs. circular polarization in radio transmissions?
