Then as smart phones took off, all the companies quadrupled down on the walled garden idea

Yahoo and MSN had interop before smartphones existed. AIM and Google Talk (Jabber) as well.

When smart phones took off, Facebook Messenger actually had Jabber support (which also gave it interop with AIM and Google Talk).

The consolidation and walled gardens unfortunately came back later.

They did pretty well with Inside Out as well. Bing Bong wasn’t even in any of the promotional materials at all.

They do. By default the system partition is straight up mounted read-only.

Is that… ICQ? Why?

A plate

They banned flavored pods. That’s why disposables took off. Those are banned now too, but enforcement is basically non-existent at the federal level.

Both are indeed things.

Michael Sullivan (of “delete the wife” fame) says it in Lower Decks 4x01. And a Betazoid gift box says it again in 4x03 (after similarly living an entire fabricated lifetime in a moment).

I miss my wife!

Works for me. Make sure you scribble on the M while you’re over it.

Have you tried auto memory reclaim yet?

Do you want to talk about it?

The customary reply is “Thanks! I’ll add it to my list”

That’s a funny way to say “Have you opened a ticket?”

Meanwhile, on Sync…

If you’re going to run fiber cables, run two or three. At least two.

You don’t want to do that twice if you don’t have to. And if you need to troubleshoot your layer 1 at some point in the future, it’s a lot less frustrating to have a good spare versus having to run more later just for testing.

I would go with 2 in aggregate (if you have the ports) + 1 spare.

But yes, fiber would definitely be a better option if you have enough clearance to run it without kinking it. Might even be cheaper depending on the cost of copper these days. The real cost is usually in the SFP+ modules.

Definitely do some research on the switches that you have before you buy the modules and cabling. Certain modules can be finicky with certain switches.
