@nullifidian lol that'd be strange if a bunch of different people took the same break for different reasons

I took a hiatus.. what happened since I've been gone?

Question for fellow users:

When you want to boost a post, do you also tend to favorite it or just boost it alone?

Drowning with the pretty in the city of sin, come breathe with me, let's go for a swim. 😈

Maverick rotten fruit I am
Swarm broken flys to my appealing peeling
They think I'm still alive

Test, test, testing, 1 2 3, testing 1 2

@nomi I've written a few different types of poetry before, usually I don't even like haikus but yours are great. Yours inspired me to try and write my own, but mine are horrible. 😂 Any advice?

Got this gem in the beginning of the year.. not sure if I got bingo or not..

Well, I guess that's the end of that!
I've been stressed, so I start scrolling this magnificent place. I find a great article someone posted. I open and start reading. Bam! Subscribe to continue reading. Go back to Qoto, happens again. Now I'm more stressed. I'm starting to understand how some people go to TikTok and let it ruin their brain, cause it feels good. *Sighs* this place is supposed to be ad free. I'm betting some of these robotooters are just paid promoters. </rant>

@true_mxp Wow look at that!.. full 64-bit. I bet those machines could crunch back in the day.. I see where my confusion came in. The only exotic chips I played with were from Alpha Digital, and some Power PCs. But you know what's a shame? Later in life I got into Unix / Linux but all those exotic computers only had NT or 2000. There were some slick OS's I wanted to play with but never got the chance.

@rastinza I like mongodb for that sorta thing, especially when I've got a lot of properties of properties of properties. It's very organized and has a lot of built in query operators for filtering things by time, value, order, even geolocation, and many more. You can also set it up to store data about when data is retrieved. It's JSON based, and extremely fast. JSON looks like this:
{
"_id": uo7g77hih77h7b75f5f5,
"name": "bob",
"logins": [
{
"when": date(7542246788642),
"from": "office"
},
{
"when": date(5432246788765),
"from": "home",
"accessed": [
{ "file": "work.pdf" },
{ "file": "dogs.jpg" }
]
}
],
"email": "bob@bob.bob"
}

Once I grab bobs object from the database, using the data is easy like result.logins[1].accessed would give me both files he accessed. 2D tables like SQL or CSV have a tough time with 3D data. There's a learning curve but we'll worth it.
Hope this helps.

Mid programming, my brain randomly starts thinking "they're gonna reboot Indiana Jones I bet", and I start pondering interesting choices for a new Indiana. They're absurd, but interesting.

Hit me, I'll hit back
If this world's going to fuck me
Go hard, make it fun

@true_mxp I'm just guessing you have one which makes me way more of an expert than me. I've worked with some uncommon machines before, but never one of those. What was primarily run on it?

@true_mxp they could execute 64-bit code, but the chip wasn't natively 64, it could natively do 40 I think, and used extensions to preprocess 64 instructions into executable code. I'm not a 100% sure. But I know it's extended instruction set was magical for scaling, it's a monster for it's time.

@true_mxp oooh those chips were almost 64-bit... Not very common.. usually for special use.
