Probably a square rectangle of plastic you’d add to your PC, like a CD player, but with a USB connector. And wires/card towards the mobo. Cases always had like 2-4 emplacements for those kind of things on the front.

My money because I always pirated.


Yeah usb came with 98-SP2 IIRC


Well compated to others it did kind of just work. Plug&play, USB, most simple peripherics didn’t need a driver to be manually installed and configured.
Windows 98 I guess.


The problem is the N+2 is in on it too. And so on. “It just works!”


???
So what’s the problem with those protocols?


But, but, it’s worth nothing!!


What about that 365 bullshit?
Or having to work in the lumber mill when it gets its new owner.
Yeah because they won’t lose a lumber mill this time.
Right?!


Exactly.
File sharing, a chat, backup systems, are just the low hanging fruit IMO. You can make a takedown safe “web” presence, with whatever you want on it. Decentralised, accessible with your PC off. And FOSS.
You can try it out, the new “web” WIP, if you have a couple of minutes and access yo a PC (Linux works, would love to get feedback from other platforms).


Or a second one.


If they drive at low speed (IIRC you can build a car that will like never kill you under 60km/h) they might be way safer than cars driven by humans.


So, and I’m gonna pull my shameless plug ofc, but what about a decentralised internet?
Check out tenfingers or the sub (I put the weblink, is it !lemmy.world/c/tenfingers on lemmy browser apps?).
What about we take the internet back?


Try to do secure communication without that sweet domain mame… You can’t!
My thoughts is that they feel the need to control everything. And we all know how that goes usually…


Can we first just check out the salary?


And IIRC you xan choose to just keep it (so install it) right from there.
You can also load it up, and then do wild stuff and install, upgrade things (which will disappear ofc.).
That USB boot is crazy cool if you think about it IMO.


You would have known it better under windows as it would have bacame obsolete or just stopped working every other 6 months, needing your attention 😁
Oh here comes the truth finally.
You’re just angry your idol got shot lol. And by someone thinking he was too much to the left too.
