@lyse Indeed, it’s quite translucent. 😃
It depends on the type of rosin, though. The one that I used before is basically opaque and also much harder:
I intentionally went for the softer rosin this time, because I find it easier to use. It’s stickier and can be applied to the bow much easier.
@lyse All those twts have the same hash, so I don’t see any duplicates in my client. Phew! 😅

Got a new pack of rosin for my double bass. There was a large bubble of air trapped inside. 🥴 It slowly made its way up over the course of a couple of days and now it finally burst. 😅

@aelaraji Ah! That’s a great reason, actually. 😊 Exploring for the sake of exploring! 👌

@aelaraji What is FreeBSD’s killer feature these days in your opinion? In other words, why are you experimenting with this OS in particular? 🤔 Not saying it’s bad, don’t worry. 😅 Just curious, I haven’t had it installed in over a decade, I think.

@lyse Looks to me like this was an edit. I still have the original twt hash tuoqlua in my “cache”. 🤔

@bender Honest question (since I obviously know very little about this): Can you debug this? Let’s take the strawberry example. Can you pinpoint which bytes in your data/model/code/whatever are responsible for the answer “there are 2 Rs”, and then go ahead and fix them without affecting anything else?

@xuu Too late for that. 😅 I don’t have direct control over those boxes. I’m just the guy they call when shit hits the fan.
(If XP didn’t have this silly product activation, I’d probably agree. 😅 But as it stands, Win2k was “peak Windows” in my book. 🥴)

Speaking of “AI” … I guess I gotta find out soon how to disable/sabotage Microsoft’s “Recall”, before this garbage takes over the family computers. 😩
(There’s no way the people in question will switch operating systems. I’ve tried, countless times.)

@prologic Sometimes some “coding AI” spits out some partially useful snippet, and then one of us nerds panics and claims the end is nigh. I think that’s about it. 🤔
All these “AI” topics are extremely boring to me. (Traditional) computer stuff is a hobby and a passion of mine because I can *understand* it. How does an operating system work, how does a web server work, how does a keyboard work, how do you do 3D graphics, … All those are things that I can learn and understand, and that’s the thrill. But anything related to “AI”? It’s just statistics and a large model that spits out something for some reason … Super boring. I couldn’t be less interested.
And on top of that, “AI” requires a ton of energy (as far as I know), which we, as a species, cannot afford right now. It needs to stop.

@tkanos You’re right, it appears to be quite rare. 🤔 I checked a couple of my boxes and only Supreme Commander) and FEAR) want to see a service pack. I didn’t try installing them, yet.

@tkanos @bender Thanks, but the thing is that Microsoft has blocklisted these well-known keys in their Service Pack installers. So, yeah, it works, but only for a basic installation of XP – and some games demand a Service Pack being present. 🫤
I don’t remember having seen bender’s key, though. Maybe that one works. I might give it a try some day, when my motivation is back up. 😂

For now, I removed the BIOS battery from the PC in question. 😂 I just want to play some older games, that’s it. Let’s see how long it’ll work that way.

(To be fair, I could have seen it coming back then. It was well known that you have to activate Windows XP. I still “bought” it. Lesson learned: It was a rental, for a limit period of time.)

Wasted another hour trying to get Windows XP to work again (while avoiding totally shady stuff). Not much success.
Windows XP has scarred me for life. 😂 I bought this thing, cost me 140 bucks, but I can’t use it anymore because Microsoft says so. Screw that.
I won’t buy commercial software anymore and haven’t done so in a long time. You want an online activation or, better yet, some sort of subscription? Screw that.
Up until the end of the 1990ies and very early 2000s, it was okay to buy commercial software. Things like StarOffice 3.1 still work just fine today, because you can just install it, done.
Free/libre software is the way to go.

Good old (bitmap) Helvetica works as a GUI font again:
https://movq.de/v/2456cfb05a/helvetica.png
This broke a year ago and I gave up on it. Now it’s back. Crisp fonts, just like in the terminal. 💚
This is *much* easier for me to read. Maybe it’s because of my myopia. Everything is a little bit fuzzy anyway and font antialiasing *on top* is really exhausting for me.
