your intergrated development environment looks a bit weird
Even have a Master and Slave config, that nowadays translates into Dom and Sub of course.
Political correctness dictates usage of the terms “primary” and “secondary,” IIRC.
That’s why I said "nowadays translates …
Yeah, but I don’t remember reading those particular terms when all that BS went down…
Yeah that’s the joke, gay-pride, dommies and subs.
I don’t get how that’s gay-specific, but whatevs - the rest I got, wasn’t being (all that) serious.
I really tried to make an “official vocab guidelines” “Hot Fuzz” reference but I couldn’t find good proxies for “Police Woman” and “Police Officer”
No, the IDEs belong to March.
You’d do numbers on Tumblr
“Master” Jumper = top
“Slave” Jumper = bottom
“Cable select” jumper = both/either
These don’t look like the Integrated Development Environments I know!
Am I a bigot for throwing away my last IDE cable last month?
Yes, and you should be ashamed.
But I can’t find my razor!
The curse of needing a glorious IDE ribbon be upon you. A pox on your case.
You know you’re gonna need it in a few days now.
I still have some old hard drives that only use IDE, but no computer that has an IDE port. Can’t bring myself to throw them away.
I wish they still made the disc drives like they used to. I am currently trying to find a drive that has a headphone jack, play button, and can also burn DVDs rather than just read them. But that seems to be really really rare.
Anyway, these IDE drives used to have a full CD player in them. Unfortunately, on the more modern ones, there’s just the MPC2 connector at the back. Now, that could still be worked with, but playback control would still rely on a computer.
Many earlier CD drives also included a convenient play button.How’s that useful? Welp, I want to put it into a 5.25" drive enclosure that I got. This way I could also (easily) use it as a standalone CD player.
I mean, imagine having something like those Creative Infra CD drives as an external drive 😍
I was a bit onto this whole retro CD thing after plowing through my old CD collection, but it died out when I remembered a CD only holds like 50-60 minutes of music 😔 it really is not much, and yeah mp3 etc but then why not a 10€ thumbdrive (I made a rpi that played any thumbdrive you stuck in it) and so on…
Good memories though 🙂
…the redbook limit is 74 minutes, although specially-pressed discs can squeeze upwards of eighty minutes or even longer with playback limitations on some equipment…
Didn’t they hit a whopping GigaByte at the end of the CD era even?
All you need:
Crap! I missed celebrating the IDEs of March.
