Maybe whoever made this didn’t consider them as land?

Edit: Although they only specify “Oceans” for the area of water, which excludes the mentioned other bodies of water. Idk…

I once did a whole bunch of research looking into turning my old gaming laptop into a Nas/Homeserver.

And buying the supporting hardware to get more than the three SATA ports it had (mcpie adapter and SATA card and a power supply) would have been more jank and expensive than buying a used desktop in a big case and using that instead.

I’d say it does make sense, the only thing I lost is power efficiency, but I’m trying to not think too hard about that :D

With the right software most consumer hardware can be a decent server, although not having ECC ram kinda sucks. Usually most motherboards have enough SATA ports for a few drives and if not, just add a PCIE card that does.

even unzipped folders

That sounds super interesting, does it keep the folder structure intact? Because having to zip a folder to be able to download a folder with its structure intact is super annoying.

Edit: Oh it’s just for uploading, still very cool though.

I’d write it down / take photos just in case… But also remember being able to swap SATA cables without anything breaking. It’s been a while since I had to fiddle with the hardware though, so that memory isn’t super reliable.

Relevant xkcd:

Have you watched non episodic anime? There’s a lot of Movie length anime out there often with more mature theming.

Akira was probably the first anime that put the medium on the map for me at all. The animated Ghost in the shell movie is also pretty good. And almost all of the Studio Ghibli films.

You could also try stuff like Cowboy Bebop or Serial Experiments Lain for episodic but still short works.

There’s a pretty good Mad Max game out there…

Electromechanical stuff. Like old jukeboxes, pinball machines or anything else that required programming before the widespread use of microcontrollers.

Some people have already mentioned stuff akin to this, like the mechanical govenor, or the post abt THIS MUSEUM IS NOT OBSOLETE, but it really deserves its own thread.

Technology Connections on YouTube has made some great videos about devices like that.

Pinball Jukebox

Neither sure how to call it, nor is it a technology, more like a mindset. I am just gonna name it: “Prideful Craftsmanship”

Basically the incorporation of “useless” decorations and embellishments, to show off ones skill and maybe market oneself a little. Definitely superseded in the capitalist world. Things were just prettier or more interesting to look at, even stuff that wasn’t meant to be flashy.

But with nearly everything being made to a price point, this practice has been somewhat lost.

But that’s not a thing for intel CPUs either, at least not anymore.

I’m not sure why, but Nvidia hasn’t been making chipsets/motherboard sfor quite a while. Or was there a point in time when it only made chipsets for intel CPUs?

Not sure if “OG Nazis” only include the first generation, but their Children were pretty much brainwashed.

You can look up “Hitler Jugend” If you want, that organisation basically indoctrinated children while growing up. Right when humans are the easiest to manipulate.

I’d wager that, maybe, you were right.
