generally computers won’t stop doing things they were already capable of doing. tons of machines and businesses may rely on older hardware and software to complete specific tasks.
but yeah, a 486 is pretty past its prime, and the task could have been accomplished on something far more modern.
They’ve been doing it for a very long time now. I’m currently using a 2015 model, Dell Tablet. It has Linux support. Cost me about $250 (with a copy of W10 Pro), a few years back. I also got it with the hard shell keyboard dock, effectively making it a net book.
It’s been a great device, but probably isn’t what OP is looking for.
that’s because it wasn’t. it still isn’t. the best hardware in the world won’t do anything for you if there’s no software to use it. with the iVRy dev working on this, and with Sony’s announcement, they probably realized it was a inevitability for someone to crack the software problem.
no one ever said it couldn’t be done.

it is true that the founding fathers could not have foreseen the invention of more modern firearms, let alone the idea of semi and fully automatic firearms. but they did clearly envision that a armed populace was a good thing. they also fairly clearly envisioned it as a equally armed type of thing. what was modern then would be considered antique and primitive just a short century later. but the spirit of the amendment still comes through fairly clearly.
in the case of modern society, fully automatic weapons are heavily regulated and are not, in general, in the hands of the populace. true some can be modified, but to be caught with such a weapon, is going to bar you from legally having any sort of firearm, as it’s a felony.
it’s whataboutism, any time someone follows up a story like this with ‘what about the time X did worse?’
it’s literally the definition of whataboutism. if it weren’t whataboutism, then we wouldn’t be talking about the IDF. we’d instead be talking about the dude pretending to be a journalist by day, and a terrorist by night.
the fact that you don’t know this means two things. either you know and are trying to deflect, or you just flat out don’t know that’s what whataboutism is.
most of the old coke machines use the code 4 2 3 1. these buttons are from the top selection button to the fourth. one will be a back button, another will be the accept button, and the other two will be your up and down buttons.
even if most of the machines are locked out, you’ll usually be able to see a few stats on the machine. kind of fun to mess with.
i’ve never bought into battle passes.
Narrator: A new car built by my company leaves somewhere traveling at 60 mph. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don’t do one.
Woman on Plane: Are there a lot of these kinds of accidents?
Narrator: You wouldn’t believe.
Woman on Plane: Which car company do you work for?
Narrator: A major one.
Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catch-all for fuckoffs and misfits—a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy piss-ridden little hole nailed off by the building inspector, but just deep enough for a wino to curl up from the sidewalk and masturbate like a chimp in a zoo-cage. - Hunter Thompson (journalist)
a careful cut or edit, could make all the difference.
given that the video is specifically presented as ‘unprovoked’ i’m going to guess it wasn’t.
probably not a good idea to attack them and take hostages then.
Same for much on Steam. They wouldn’t be able to go erase stuff off your hard drives.
Many of the older games on Steam don’t have any DRM. Typically if they’re on GOG, they come the same way on Steam.
That said, I like GOG. It’s one of the few services I buy games on. But this argument that Steam games are locked down by DRM is is silly. Most games that are released on both platforms are identical.
nah, some of us were making fun of this moment even back then.
as an OG Tribes player, Tribes 2 was still better. that was part of the problem. they made a Tribes game but seemed to misunderstand what made for a good Tribes game. Ascend was always kind of garbage-y,
What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?
the real shame being that he died peacefully in his bed.
Dodge started the trend of making their pickup trucks be stupidly huge.
it’s been awhile since i dove into Linux, but last time i dabbled i was liking Kubuntu.
