Oh, Im in northern europe and made in Japan / Taiwan / Korea / China (except lately for the last one) never had any such connotations. I remember Japan and West Germany/Germany as high standard. Still got some West Germany workshop tools I inherited from grandpa, and those might be made to US standards due to US influence in the german reconstruction effort.

Made in the US items was uncommon as I grew up, only item I remember being made there was a frustrating us clock radio as a child due to it never keeping time right (possible by using the mains frequency as time keeper rather than a crystal). I am born late 80s.

What about horrible computers is rooted in xenophobia (and racism which is a form of xenophobia)?

Something that might have been a result due to software laws after “stop killing games” initiative

Hey, dont kinkshame! Some still look back at Elwynn ERP as their peak charming point!

So many of old analog film movies seem to be just the dvd ripped to bluray sadly, so there are no real advantage going high tech. Its not like they add more extras in the unused space either

If you feel pain while defecating, no matter if its on the loo or in bed, you probably should check it up. Pain is not a natural reaction to that activity

Isnt all feces by definition dumb because of lack of advanced functioning brain?

I ran Puppeee on my original which loaded completely to ram and only wrote to disk every 10 minutes or when prompted due to the early ssds very limited life span. It helped me get through folkhögskola and was small enough to let me easily work on the 1 hour 30 min bus ride to and from school. I think that model was called 4G and it was even tighter keyboard than my current due to åäö-keys being almost half width

Not a screenshot since I havent set up any internet communication except package installing yet, but a bad photo is manageble. Now I just have to figure out how to make a specific user that automatically boots into Abiword on login!

I downloaded .txt books and read on my DS :D nostalgic but do not want to relive the experience

Except you didnt order it, FedEx decided you needed the package. More, the package contained termites that got out and infested your house

So the end user is responsible to hunt down the driver publisher? In what way is that better than MS being responsible and they keep the publishers in line before the publishers get access to autoupdater?

About the third party installer, why not use my suggested solution rather than putting words in my mouth? Keep the drivers in a separate MS installer from autoupdates

If MS cant be expected to vet every driver they push with their autoupdater they shouldnt push drivers with the same tool that autoupdates their OS. Make one or the other. I see a use for autoupdate only MS products and a triggered updater for drivers that only gets used by the error wizard with a user prompt(whtever they call it) if they want to be able to claim no responsibility

Released with two other versions but they are Double Kick and Arm Slam. The difference us purely cosmetic between Double Upper and Arm Slam while Double Kick uses a whole different cpu architecture but no other changes. Only one edition will be promoted and have easy support
