RooPappy@kbin.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you ever come up with genius ("genius") ideas for joke domains to unsettle/embarrass people when you tell them your email?13·1 year agoNot a domain, but I did register a yahoo email address of roopappyatgmaildotcom@yahoo.com just to confuse people who asked for my email address.
RooPappy@kbin.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is everything in consumer / American life so fucking shitty now - and companies literally just say 'oh bc profit margins' and we're now expected to swallow that and sympathize?121·1 year agoPeople need to be willing to suffer small conveniences to send a message to companies, but they aren’t. And then they complain that the government should step in, while they constantly elect people who protect business interests and are anti-consumer in the name of “small government.”
It’s requires at least one or the other… a free market with consumers who drive the demand, or big government. With neither, you end up with constant corporate abuses.

Personally, I recently hooked up my Berhinger USB audio interface to Mint, and Ardour and Audacity saw it immediately. I was impressed. I was ready to google around for how to use lusb and dmseg and shit because I never remember what I’m doing.
RooPappy@kbin.socialto Memes@lemmy.ml•When it's cheaper to get 1TB of storage and 8GB of RAM in a phone9·2 years agoI used to build those Mac clones back in the mid to late 90s. We were building high-end video editing systems, and you could either get a PowerMac 9600 or one of the clones. I think we used Daystar (?) machines, and I remember they had this PCI expansion box where you could run a ribbon cable and add more PCI slots for additional cards. Wild west, crazy stuff.
