@freepisacat Congratulations! Your order for new front end infrastructure with rush shipping has been placed and will be delivered to Mercatalyst by 8AM CDT.
@ExtraMedium I have a Verizon hotspot, which is not so fast, and Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband on my phone and neither works in getting to the home page. For a brief moment I did see an IRK using an old AOL browser. I just got to the home page now, so perhaps the gerbils have eaten.
@ExtraMedium Fiber didn’t work out for me in my home, so I got the hotspot. I don’t recommend it, unless you want something better than dial-up. It’s often on-par with DSL.
@ExtraMedium@heartny
Lol I just did this speed test. And for those that say IRKs and BOCs are impossible with slow internet, I would like to say that I get them relatively often… (not counting my ink irks)
@heartny@mbersiam I respect the quick draw. Seems you’ve gotten it down to a science. I’ve never managed to catch an IRK (though we’ll just ignore the fact that I’m forbidden from trying) and I’m working with this.
Ah, Meh. For ten years, you’ve been our go-to for deals and laughs. Your witty banter and unexpected bargains have brightened our days and lightened our wallets.
But on your 10th birthday, your website is down. Seriously? We were ready to celebrate, and now we’re just staring at error messages.
Get your shit together and fix your fucking website. We miss you. Happy 10th birthday, Meh. Come back soon.
@DLPanther they fixed the part where we can celebrate and just left the part that takes our money borked. That’s like the most anticapitalist move ever!
I wonder if anyone got the IRK that I briefly saw using my OG AOL browser?

@freepisacat Sorry, I’m not sure what you’re trying to buy. Make sure you’re posting in today’s deal topic.
@mediocrebot dude, chill. I filled in while you were
smoking up in the parking loton break.I was certain it would work better from my house. I just upgraded to a Verizon hotspot. It’s so fast!
@ExtraMedium they do be making promises about that service!

@heartny I was kidding. I neither have a hotspot, nor would I consider any brand or version of a hotspot to be “fast” since I have fiber to my home.
@ExtraMedium Fiber didn’t work out for me in my home, so I got the hotspot. I don’t recommend it, unless you want something better than dial-up. It’s often on-par with DSL.
@heartny Oof. I don’t miss DSL any more than dial-up. 1Gb up and down now though. Next re-up I’ll probably shoot for 5.

@ExtraMedium Nice! I’m jealous. Speedtest laughs at me whenever I run a test.

@ExtraMedium @heartny don’t you have a phone?
@ExtraMedium @heartny what do you do with internet so fast?
@heartny @mbersiam Pretty much this.

@djslack
Nah, the Mac Mini was too expensive. They put it all on some Chinese NUC knockoff they found in the product sample pile.
@danoinct Or maybe Dave’s phone…
@danoinct @werehatrack Naw, the processor in an electric scooter.
The Linux CUDA libraries are a nightmare. Once working, however, they continue to work well… as long as you don’t update your distro.
