Try using the “scaled” version while browsing all, it lets all the small stuff pop up too. Just be ready to religiously block communities without hesitation to get things curated how you want

We had typing in the 90’s, but that was on electric typewriters, and was in I guess what you would call middle school not elementary.

Later there was ‘Mavis beacon teaches typing’ as the earliest typing ones that was really popular

For Windows it absolutely is in order of listing however. Typical behaviour is no reply after a second against the primary DNS results in it moving down the list.

Redundancy aside, this is more important when you span multiple datacenters and always want lookups going to the completely local or most local DC available.

TIL about the Linux/BSD not having preference though. Good to know.

Another happy Connect user here and you can enable the beta branch from the play store. I ran into a bug a few months ago and made a post, the Dev had it fixed hours later.

As a teenager we also all pitched in on a CD burner when they first came out and kept it at the BBS’s owners place, I just remember a single CD took forever back then when it was 1x and 2x recording speed. That allowed us to share a ton more without everyone having to get together on the LAN.

I got my first job with AIX in the early 2000’s after the previous admin did a reinstall of the OS vs an upgrade on prod, with unverified backups. It was a resume generating event.

They lost over 3 months of data and barely survived it.

If he recognized his typo with the space after the D:\ in his restore command he could have been saved at the bargaining stage. I am so glad I don’t work with this stuff anymore.

Or in this case, likely using mom’s electricity without her knowing
