I am fucking frustrated.
You guys don't get it, I live in a piece of shit country (not india, and I live and work here, I don't want to go to your country, fuck off), it is not just that "oh so women can get hired slightly easier who cares", no, the disparity is fucking ridiculous.
This girl I knew in my previous job she wasn't really exceptional at everything by all metrics, and that is fine, she was alright for our positions in that company.
But she is a woman, and I am not, and I don't pretend to be either, so she got hired by a FAGMAN and in a piece of shit place like this it is not a "oh so she is earning 50% more or whatever, who cares, grow up", no, FAGMAN tends to have salaries closer to the global standard, they get paid NEARLY EIGHT TIMES MORE than a piece of shit job here.
It is fucking life changing, and you can get it by just being the right gender.
FUCK.

>>107840154
He is bitter than this woman got hired instead of him, and he is coping by assuming the only way that it is possible is because she is a woman. He refuses any true introspection about what she might offer that he can't, and as such he will never grow and he will be forced to continue in his shitty low paying job in his piece of shit country

Leaded glass is safe since the lead is mixed into the glass. Even if you shatter it, the lead is still inside the pieces of glass. Even if it's small pieces it's inside each piece.

>that's why CRTs are so heavy
It's far more just because it's thick ass glass.

Well, a similar model of this TV is 157. This sure doesn't feel like no 157 pounds though.

I'm trying to recover data from a Windows 98 PC, and I would like to back up the hard drive (which appears to be failing). I can still read data intermittently, and it sounds like it keeps doing repetitive seeking before it gives me data read errors and general drive read failures. The computer doesn't even detect the drive half the time, and it won't boot from that drive at all.

I would like to try and boot from a Linux recovery distro and see what I can do, namely clone the failing drive before doing anything else, but the optical drive doesn't appear to be plug-and-play (I can't boot off of it because the optical drive only works after drivers are already loaded), and I couldn't get a USB stick to work, so it seems like the only option left is to boot from a 1.44MB floppy disk and get the computer to clone the hard drive itself. I've added another drive, and that one works flawlessly, so it seems only the master drive is bad.

It's actually harder to get a straight answer on which linux distros you can boot from a floppy disk than I would've thought. It doesn't even matter if it has to be an old version, people are saying the wrong version number is capable of doing so (like with RIPLinuX, so I don't know which ridiculous version to use), and I'd prefer one centered on data recovery anyway.

It's a "Proteva Pro Series" PC, I guess. (Not pictured.) It doesn't sound very distinct, but apparently they thought it was distinct enough to brand it that way.

Everything on and about the computer says 1998, but I'm doing it right now, I just need to add more RAM cause I guess "65"MB isn't enough for Clonezilla. I'm also adding a soundcard and seeing what I can do with salvage parts.

I use Eclipse because it's a real IDE rather than a useless text editor. It's like the difference between using a computer, and being a phone fag. Using a text editor when IDEs exist is tinker tranny autismo.

You basically have to BUILD an IDE starting from an underwhelming editor. This is why the whole JavaScript/NPM community is so retarded. All of them use text editors and end up needing to run bullshit linters and packagers and whatnot, because they don't have a real IDE that provides them with this functionality out of the box. That results in brain damaged ideas like downloading node packages and just executing them on your machine, trusting complete strangers on the internet with everything in your home dir.

And of course, that experience is so bad for them, they now do things like run "ai agents" such as claude in their environment too. Like, I guess if you assume your ass is already pwned by NPM supply chain hackers, then installing some trillion dollar corporate spyware that uploads all your work to a competitor makes some kind of sense.
