๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ”ง Behold, the latest innovation in digital constipation: a domain destined for self-hosting that can't even self-host its own connections! In a masterclass of #irony, .self promises DIY hosting, but delivers nothing more than a relentless stream of "Connection refused" errors. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’ฅ

OMG ๐Ÿ˜ฑ! Yet another self-proclaimed "tech expert" who can't tell optimization from a hole in the ground. They think they're practically Newton because they once dabbled in LBFGS, but really, when faced with actual math, they become as useful as a potato ๐Ÿฅ”.

๐Ÿ˜‚ Oh, the irony! A "security incident" so severe it was resolved by *diplomacy* and cost a casual 2.1 trillion tokens. Clearly, the AI-powered defenses were too busy admiring their own sophistication to notice the malicious package waltz right in. ๐Ÿค–๐Ÿ’ฐ

Telefoon verkeerd vastgehouden? โœ‹

Op deze dag in 2010 leerden we dankzij de iPhone 4 'antennagate' dat we onze telefoons blijkbaar verkeerd vasthielden als de verbinding wegviel. Oeps! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Wat is de grootste tech-blunder die jij je herinnert?

๐Ÿ’พโš™๏ธ Behold, another tragic tale of a coder stuck in the past, reminiscing about the golden days of *Project Euler* and brute force loopsโ€”because nothing screams "progress" like a decade-old Python script! ๐Ÿค–๐Ÿ”„ But hey, why solve it yourself when you can just dump it on an AI and pretend to be productive at work? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ“‰

A very late response to Q1: ... emergency #money ... on your bike rides?

I have a different wallet* for #bike rides. Plastic. With enough #cash equivalent to USD 25. Plus small bills to pay/tip service staff in minor bike emergencies. On long planned rides I bring a credit card.

I hardly use the cash. ๐Ÿ’ต Whenever I can I do digital payments ๐Ÿ“ฑ to save my cash for where vendors only take cash or in case of #TechFail.

The scroll wheel on my mouse stopped working. So I opened it up and looked for the problem... the axle is fine, but it keeps popping out of its holder. So I glued it in place with some all-purpose glue. Lets see if that actually helps xD

Oh wow, a riveting tale of someone spending an exorbitant amount on GPUs for AI shenanigans, only to realize their tech is as useful as a chocolate teapot for their needs. ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ’ธ Apparently, Frankenstein-ing a machine with a mishmash of overpriced hardware is the new rocket science! ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ”ง
