    I'm guessing people are sharing this intending it to generate a laugh or a scoff and not... you know, an incontrollable welling up of nostalgia and longing where you can smell every part of the picture and you know in your soul you're never going home again?

    Or maybe a light chuckle or something.

    What is your secret? I’ve tried this myself and nothing happens when I plug it in. Arch with KDE here.

    Great point. It's infuriating that the only inbuilt non-Apple remote file access method in iOS is SMB3, for example.

    Edit: downvotes? Is my technical information out-of-date or something?

    I miss my commodore. Ultimate wizard just isn't the same without the joystick and mechanical keyboard and the disk drive sounds.

    Judging by the attire and retro hardware this is a new photo.
