I think we will see the rise of human verified and curated social spaces and information sources.
Honestly, oldskool encyclopedias sound pretty good right now. 100% human curated info.
Its getting to where I would pay for that … - Comment on I wish I knew of Lemmy earlier. I've wasted too much time on 'mainstream' social media. 1 week ago:
That makes perfect sense. I like to browse anon, till I hit something that makes me want to interact. That habit seems to subject me to a lot of the cross-posted stuff.

I browsed for a while, and I like it. I’m gonna sign up. eviltoast goes down every now and then. (I do believe its been me and large graphic files that was at fault on occasion.) It would be nice to have a second home.

Hmm. Well I enjoy being from one of the smaller instances. That one looks quirky. Cool.
I think you were lookin for this tho … moist.catsweat.com
That is an interesting site design. I’m gonna poke around. - Comment on I wish I knew of Lemmy earlier. I've wasted too much time on 'mainstream' social media. 1 week ago:
Well … its cool and all. And the people are nicer. And smarter. Mostly.
But you can read the entire feed in an hour. And we’ve got cross-postings and bots. And crusaders.
I guess that leaves more time for IRL in your day. - Comment on Wicked hangover 1 week ago:

You are close. The original Adblock extension was mid-2000’s. Before that, we traded host files online in forums and shit. So I’ve been filtering the internet since Windows XP.

That was a grim, difficult read. The last paragraph is quite good, bringing the ideas together.
I really hate modern media. The advertising in it is the worst part, and being ingrained in every aspect of the media itself just makes it worse. I don’t watch TV, and I’ve been blocking ads since I had to curate my own host files in order to do so, well before the introduction of extensions that would do it for you. I find using today’s unfiltered internet just about as odious as watching TV.
It was hard just to read about that shit. Every word was a true, ugly reflection of the culture I live in.

Ah. Yes, it appears I’ve been using the ESU option. That was the simplest thing to do.
I use the registration utility from massgrave, added 3 years to my registration.But right there on that page, they cover Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021.
It sounds like that’s what I need. Stripped down Win10. I like that idea.
Thanks, friend. - Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 1 week ago:

Do ya think this guy is actually a replacement?
Like, they got him. He’s on life support somewhere, having his brain sucked out.
This is a droid. He’s gonna go join some subversive movement and report them to Google. - Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 1 week ago:
The find and replace is based off of the Notepad interface.
It does support searching for newlines and such, but it doesn’t look like it does full regex. - Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 1 week ago:
This is the first I’ve heard of EditPadLite. From a cursory examination of their site, it appears to be written with the same general design philosophy as Metapad, albeit not as low profile. I’ll give it a tentative thumbs up.
The EditPadLite download is 18mb. My copy of Metapad is 190k. Small and fast. - Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 1 week ago:
Back in the old Web 1.0 days I used to label my websites “Coded by Notepad.exe”.
Well, you couldn’t pay me to use today’s Notepad. But Metapad fills that gap perfectly. - Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 1 week ago:
I have a laptop still running Win10. I’ll look into this. Thx.

Everyone had Doom, because it was shareware. You could play the first 7 levels or some shit for free. Given that most people died well before that, it was a pretty good deal. Doom was on every computer.
Much respect to your old man passing the torch. Game on, friend. - Comment on A remote code execution vulnerability has been found in Microslop Notepad 1 week ago:
