I'd just use some atomic/immutable OS and call it quits.

Yknow, I have two friends that switched to linux within the last year, and both of them, 80% of the time we wanna play something or just hang out in a discord group call, they have to fix a random audio driver or mic input or, for gaming, sudden frame drops to below 20fps that I never experience in the same game and whatnot

Conversely, as for the ancient hardware... What about the CCFL backlight, what about the IDE controller, what about that RAM, can it cache whatever modern applications throw at it? And can you tmpfs your way out of it all?

Not all of those preconfigured ISOs.

I'm just giggling here as I come back from standardization bodies, so as good a reason as any! 🤭

It's not fun anymore :/

Don't believe the lies.

Out of curiosity, why though? Just nostalgia, or is there more to it?

I installed Windows Server 2003.

Yeah, up-to-date clients just hide the service message for UX reasons... Bots and userbots can still see it though, the service message itself still exists

I'd just disable it because people can't read.

Geeks Chat

02 July 2025 14:17

I'd just straight up disable reactions.

An option to restrict a user from giving '👍' reaction to a message. We have an issue with certain users keep giving thumbs up to scam messages. I don't really want to ban the users instead just take his right to give reaction. But seems no such options exists at the moment

Not sure how much this info is up to date.

For me, Linux is a vey big unfinished construction site of an OS and I'm not gonna spend my free time every day trying to fix it

The other day I received an email from such standardization body, mentioning anecdotal evidence that someone in our circles brought an MS-DOS 5.0 laptop to a conference... How much I'd give to see that thing in person!

That's the real challenge, isn't it? Can it handle more than 4GB memory, can it handle SSE2, can it handle.. modernity?

Geeks Chat

04 July 2025 08:46

But now I'm actually thinking about using it on modern hardware.

On XP nothing works.

Geeks Chat

04 July 2025 08:44

Everything just works.

Geeks Chat

04 July 2025 08:43

Because Linux just works.

Geeks Chat

04 July 2025 07:20

Those are WinXP and Win7.

what is this and why share here

Geeks Chat

03 July 2025 16:07

Oh dang, even if you enable other users adding and marking checklist tasks, only other premium members can. 😖

Geeks Chat

02 July 2025 14:49

But whatever works for you.

Geeks Chat

02 July 2025 14:21

at the moment I'm implementing 3x warn from rose to ban the offenders

Geeks Chat

02 July 2025 14:16

It doesn't seems to exist.

Geeks Chat

But those actions actually _did_ work then.
