I made an effort to learn it. In 2000. Again in 2012 or whenever the last big push was. If past is prologue, I may need to learn it again soon. 😆

Just had my yearly car maintenance at the local VW shop. They’ve started passing on the credit card processing fees to the customer. It’s only like 3 or 4%, but it made me use a debit card instead of a CC. Guess that’s where we’re at now.

I get the sense that a lot of commenters here never had an openmailbox dot org experience.

I hear you, though I think this is less about education and more about getting folks to fork over $9.99 a month. Like so many others, I’ve a long frustrating relationship with Microsoft. They’re literally the largest company in world atm and they just keep laying off people. I don’t hate them quite as much as EA or Comcast, but it’s getting pretty close.

Holy cow. Thank you! Didn’t know that was there. ❤️

I’ve threatened more than once that I was going to quit and take up potato farming. Potatoes are good. 👍

I can remember around 1999-2000 if you clicked the wrong thing in IE you’d get 50 popup windows with ads for porn. At least that’s behind us.

Don’t stop I’m almost there. 😆

I like the joke but I suspect the levels for “young programmer”, “adult programmer”, and “old programmer” would all look a lot like “programmer”. It’s true at least in my case. The occupation does seem to attract the more spicy-brained among us. 😆

Check my last edit in main post.

I think you called this, or at least you came closest. See edit #3 in post.

I apologize unreservedly if I misread your tone. No, I wanted to see what resolutions you showed available for the video. This could just be a weird YouTube issue. Maybe an error happened on their end when they were generating the various files. I checked this morning and it showed the same two pitiful resolutions when I tried to play on my phone. The real mystery is how it got 14k views in this state. I watch HDR content to enjoy my TV, but HDR on a postage stamp ain’t it.

Edit: I think I found an explanation that fits the available facts. See latest edit in main post.

Yes, I am obviously the problem with my inferior equipment and stock software. By all means, show us how it is done. https://youtu.be/oMMf_K_P-no

First time it’s happened to me but I’ll take your word for it. As of tonight, it’s been up for two days and has 14k views. I figured it was either something transient or YT was applying some traffic management during peak demand.

I think it was posted within the last week. I remember the HDR processing wasn’t done processing the first time I tried to watch it. Would I be complaining about the resolution of a video from 2007?

Edit: Sorry. My reply sounds rude, but I ran into this problem on a channel I’m familiar with. They’re an HDR walker. All of their content is in 4K. I could have included that in the post, but you could have assumed that I’m not a complete dumbass. Maybe we both can learn from this.

I love basking in the vivid, radiant luminosity of a potato.

We’ll always have 2017. That was epic.

Wow. I don’t remember having a board-mount retention mechanism for a CPU cooler before like LGA 775, but maybe such a thing existed for socket 7. Are there four holes in a rectangle around the socket?
