Correct! I.T Crowd. If I recall correctly this was from one of the very last episodes that may have only been released on disc! :)
In this scene they get caught up in a bomb threat, and the computer for the robot has technical issues so the cops ask if anybody knows computers. Moss asks the operating system.
It could very well be the last episode. :)
Take a while to open it. If they Ping you and keep asking “Why haven’t you clicked the link yet?!” You’ll know they were Putin a trap in your DMs, and you got them by Stalin.
That Marx them as a phisher, Lenin credence to the simple fact that you can’t trust anybody on the internet these days.
Can’t be too careful! They come at you from so many Engels.

“Well! That explains it! I’ll just set this over here with the rest of the fire…”
🔥🔥🔥
That’s a really good point. Maybe that was cool before the Internet was swarming with exploit-sniffing bots, but nowadays? I can’t even imagine!
I’ve seen some videos where people open port 80 on their home network running something like PFSense. In seconds it’s getting hammered from everywhere, all at once. Just wild.
What they don’t wanna tell you is that they’re all competing for “as low as they can get away with.”
“HmMmMmm quite competitive! Yyyyeeess!!”
I remember setting up a fresh XP install for a friend, and within seconds of plugging in the ethernet cable Internet Explorer started opening tons of flashing ad windows everywhere. Firewall wasn’t on by default I guess? LOL
I also remember that system messenger exploit that could send spam as system “OK” prompts to any XP machine. That was wild.
Just Claude a Windows 97 at this point, for funsies. Lol
I totally changed my KDE themes to be XP-esque, sound themes and all, just to have the good parts I missed, but keep a usable OS haha.
M$ has done and continues to do a lot of terribad things, but XP wasn’t one of them. Computers felt fun back then.
…Minus all the security issues. That’s gotten better with time…
Edit: Oh yeah there’s a subreddit of people modernizing XP and making new drivers for it and stuff LOL
AI, which uses weights you see
AI gettin’ so swole :(
Feels like HR should be some kind of third party representative guild that companies must contract with, maintains a strict code of ethics that doesn’t favor the employer, actually fights for the employee, and can’t be ordered around by corporations.
… I’m… mostly describing some kind of union, aren’t I? Lol
Finally, the future of automotives we all actually want. This is AWESOME. :D
No complaints here about lemmy.today :)
Hahaha yeah, it was a bit of a brick! 😂 25MPG on a good day wasn’t bad though.
But I mean hey, if Rivian can make those gargantuan Amazon vans electric, I’m sure Honda could figure it out for us. 😉 With enough infrastructure, range is pretty negotiable!
Might just have to raise the interior floor a bit to fill it with battery or make the hood space a little less snubby. :p
Would be super cool though. I’d be all over that haha.
They keep teasing it over and over. AGH. It kills me! Like every year a new bunch of articles pop up to generate clicks. I can never tell when it’s real! Lol
And I thought I was CRAZY for thinking “Could I EV convert it?” (Could fix stuff with YouTube. Not a mechanic.)
Well, now I see converting cars becoming a big thing. But sadly I screwed up the whole engine by snapping a 10mm gooseneck bolt deep in some crevice deep down in there, and it was leaking oil, and I had to sell it for scrap because we needed to get to work. Tragic. I got almost 200,000 miles out of it. :( :(
…at least now I know how a new very simple way to sabotage a vehicle hardcore in a way no mechanic or machinist would dare bother with it. (Ask me how I know Lol)
Maybe that Element EV will be a thing. I know EVs like to chase high efficiency / low drag but they need to not be afraid to be boxy for the right audience instead of jelly beans! XD
Would be nice to be able to mismatch my drive size though
I gotta look into this sometime. I’m still doing Z mirrors of 4TB drives. I was lucky to score those.
I have a bunch of 500GB / 1TBs just sitting there though that would need power and a SATA extension, maybe to put non-critical stuff on…
Jokes aside, as much as I hate AI slop this could actually be a freaking awesome use for pattern recognition that might actually improve healthcare.
But, I’m a US American so for us it costs a stupid amount of money to GET the X-Ray after waiting for an appointment, and then you play one-way phone tag waiting another month(s) for the analysis of the x-ray.
(Bonus points if you wait 6 months and pay $150-whatever for “I dunno looks fine to me.”)
I dunno in a functioning society with a decent doctor:patient ratio (is there such a thing?) maybe this wouldn’t be necessary, but over here for most things we’re practically on our own anyway so the more DIY options the better.
Shout-out to urgent cares though. If you actually broke something they usually get you scanned and remedied pretty fast. I had a thoroughly good ouch-I-think-my-toe-broke (it did) experience with urgent care.
Edit: lol curious about the downvotes. Fans of US healthcare maybe idk? O.o
Incredibly kind words, thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it! :D
