[00:12:16] <FatPhil> i did have a friend who had an altair, I have seen it, but I don't think it was powered up.

[07:13:14] <chromas> You can watch Wargames on the YouTube
[07:13:30] <chromas> there's also a sequel, but you'll actually lose brain cells watching it
[07:14:10] <chromas> I watched it once and bam! five months later, Windows 11 came out
[07:15:29] <tedious> Of your head?
[07:16:07] <chromas> Actually yes. If you want someone to blame for 11, it is I
[07:18:29] <tedious> Could we harness that power for something useful?
[07:19:09] <chromas> no
[07:19:27] <chromas> Last time I tried, systemd came out
[07:20:17] <chromas> If I pause a video on YouTube long enough, it'll play back fine, then suddenly need to re-buffer after awhile, like it forgot it could start doing that when playing
[07:20:46] <chromas> But the last few weeks, it also goes back to the 'thumbnail' image like I haven't seen the video
[07:21:01] * chromas blames Microsoft
[07:21:10] <chromas> It's important that you all know these triviums
[07:32:49] <Runaway1956> On a related subject - Firefox seems to barf on Youtube lately. The only way to get the video playing again properly, is to restart Firefox.
[07:33:24] <Runaway1956> Same video on a Chrome-derived browser shows no such symptoms
[07:43:03] <chromas> How often does that happen?
[07:52:28] -!- AzumaHazuki has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[08:39:14] <janrinok> Runaway1956, I've not seen any problems with YT, is it a particular video (can you link me to one that exhibits the problem)?
[08:39:39] <janrinok> I am on FF 98
[09:17:58] <chromas> Windows 98 used fewer resources

[12:33:23] <Runaway1956> No particular video Janrinok - if Firefox remains open for a few days, and I click a video link that goes to Youtube, the video starts, buffers, buffers, buffers,
[12:33:41] <Runaway1956> Opening the same link in a Chrome base browser works fine.
[12:33:54] <Runaway1956> So, I close Firefox, open it again, and the video will play.
[12:34:54] <Runaway1956> As a rule, I don't watch videos in Firefox, but sometimes I'll be offered something in one of the forums I visit with that browser.
[12:35:08] <janrinok> I suppose I won't see that as my servers run 24/7 but do not have FF, and my desktops go off each night.
[12:36:21] <Runaway1956> After the most recent updates (yesterday morning) I'm also on FF 98
[12:36:45] <Runaway1956> Also updated my kernel to 5.16.14

[12:40:47] <Runaway1956> God, I'm getting lazy . . . I have chores I should be doing, but here I sit, nursing coffee
[12:41:15] <janrinok> It's Sunday - it is what Sundays are for!
[12:41:27] <Runaway1956> Oh yeah!
[12:41:55] <Runaway1956> I'm also getting old, maybe it's alright to sleep past 6:00 now and then.
[12:49:02] <janrinok> I hope so - I sometimes wake up early but I try not to get up straight away.
