No, it’s not IBM. 😅 I won’t say what it is. 🥴 I don’t think I had contact with any (contemporary) IBM software since around 2010. I love toying around with retro IBM stuff (cause that’s what I grew up with), but really no idea what they’re up to these days. Even the IBM building in our city is long gone.

Hmm, how many hardware devices have you lost due to lightning over the years? 🤔 We lost a modem once, but that was it.

So you don’t feel a bit weird when you say “Windows” or “PowerPoint”? It’s just a brand, nothing special?

What is your backup target btw? This NFS drive you’re speaking of is probably hosted on one of your local servers running in your apartment/house?

On a more serious note, how’s the adoption of Archive Feeds going? If you all were to clear your caches, would your clients fetch archived feeds? 🤔
(I’m kind of thinking about truncating my history, to be honest. There’s a lot of twts out there, many of them out-of-context by now. They’re of little use except maybe for showing that twtxt/Yarn is an “active platform”.)

PMWord and PMExcel.There was a time when Vobis (you remember them?) sold PCs with OS/2 pre-installed. Those were the days, man! 😂

That’s because it’s not running on a hard disk but a Compact Flash card. 😅 My Warp 4 box *is* on an HDD and scanning directory trees takes quite some time there. 🫤 Spinning rust is crazy slow.

“PM” stands for “Presentation Manager” and is/was common prefix for graphical OS/2 programs. The PM actually got replaced by the “Workplace Shell” in version 2.0, but somehow the
PM prefix kept being used. At least that is how I remember it. 🥴Hmm, right, an “Abort” button. That could be useful. In my tests, the scans always finished so quickly that I didn’t even think about this … 😅

That sheep reminded me to read up on how sheep eyes work, having elongated pupils and all. They have multi-focal lenses – what?! Fascinating!

Ahh, I remember those Asperg shots. 😅👍
That whole area with the tunnels and basins is *probably* some sort of “retention basin” (Regenrückhaltebecken), with several levels to reduce the flow. There’s almost never a lot of water in there, though. Not sure if this structure just isn’t used anymore or if it’s too dry. There’s also this “pole”, it’s a bit hard to see, though:

Looks like they’re trying to measure the water height (Pegelstand)? The pole is super high and I doubt that any rainfall will ever reach the top of it. 🤔
