I love the idea of it. I am sad you didn't put Mint on it, but it may 
well be a great Windows gaming machine

I think it is a total bargain especially since its now reliable.

It is crying out for an SSD and Linux :-)

Hehe :) We spent about 15 minutes talking before I drove off with the 
computer but I didn't find out what the seller was using it for before.

I'm not into gaming and he sure didn't look like he was. My guess is he 
had academic background and position. His conduct, mastery of English, 
and the way he was groomed kind of indicated that.

And of course he was no businessman :) Neither am I. He'd left the max 
24g RAM and the graphics card in it intact. His concern was that this 
jewel doesn't go to waste. With the new S-something he'd purchased this 
one would go to waste with him.

24GB of DDR2 isn't exactly in high demand unless you're nursing a

Probably make out on it too. I bought one of those $10 computers from a 
YWCA sale and found obsolete components are insanely expensive. I went 
to one of the local computer shops and asked what they did with old, 
small hard drives since the BIOS wouldn't recognize anything too big. 
They weren't ecologically aware so all the drives, old RAM, and so forth 
went into the dumpster.

In late 80s I dug three Commodore 64 computers from our dumpster :) 
power supplies included. I was still in school so I didn't need a "home" 
computer yet, plus modems that school provided to students to use at 
home were I think only 300 baud. Too lethargic to connect those heavy 
vt100 terminals to school computers from home. So for me computing was 
something always done in school. But some students had purchased Apples 
and IBM XTs etc. Two of these three Commodores were fully functional and 
I gradually adopted them as my home computer.

Soon I taught myself C on one of them, if you can believe that! In 
school they were still referring to C as "the language of the future."

So Commodore 64, it looks like, was already "vintage" in 1989. After I 
acquired the Commodores I began frequenting a computer assignment store 
that sold people's old and new stuff and kept 30% of the money and gave 
70% to owners. It was a heaven for "vintage" parts, systems, manuals, 
books, everything. I had found a funky half-finished C manual there in 
German coming with two disks for Commodore. That's how I learned C. In 
school everybody used Fortran in science depts and PL-1 in business depts.

I remember Samsung was only selling monitors and everybody in that store 
was surprised it had not gone out of business by then :) It had somehow 
survived through any hell that had befallen other computer related 
businesses "but certainly not for long" as everybody there said.

Anyway, I'm so "vintage" myself that even today in 2021 if I get my 
hands on a Commodore 64 I begin immediately to enjoy doing fun stuff 
with it. I have at least 50 little programs from those years written in 
Commodore's basic and C which are entrapped inside a bad old HD that 
crashed and my attempts to revive them only made things worse. Even if I 
had kept my cassettes that I used for storing programs I'd have better 
chance now to access them.

I taught myself BASIC, ASSEMBLER, C, PHP, JavaScript, SQL..a smattering 
of PASCAL, C++, Shell. Rust looks like the next one to look at, if I 
have time.

FORTRAN was the only one I was formally taught in '65. BASIC was used at 
Dartmouth in '64 but that was about it.  My wife went to SUNY Albany 
before transferring to a real school. They had a CDC so she learned some 
weird language that isn't extant.

yes. My university chums who spent hours in the computer labs did ALGOL. 
That vanished, but it set the standard for all the block structured 
procedural languages that came after.

then there are a whole slew of 'academic' languages that everyone 
declared to be ExtremelyImportant, but which have vanished without 
trace. Lisp. Modula 2. Pascal, Forth.

Wiki lists over 100 languages - but really I cant think of more than 10 
that are seen on job adverts

Forth is still around and turns up in the damnedest places.

Ada is still around, or so I'm told.  Back when the Boston Sunday Globe 
was the place to go for job ads I would get a kick out of 'Ada 
programmer, 3 years of experience required' before there was a working 
Ada compiler let alone anyone using it.

I did a phone interview with a defense firm in San Diego and they flew 
me out for a face to face. The first question was 'Do you know <insert 
obscure DoD language>?' to which I answered no. Interview over.

I was heart broken. January in Boston and they flew me out to San Diego 
for a 15 minute interview leaving me to spend the rest of the day 
walking around in the sunshine.

The only part that sucked was the delay leaving O'Hare on the way back. 
It was 17 below and one of the service vehicles froze to the plane.

That adventure was your tax dollars at work.

So they didn't trust the phone lines to even mention that phrase on? 
Would rather have you flown over to ask you in person? Hehe :)

Nothing in the world, let alone USA, is that secret. Interviewer must've 
been a crook the likes of which have filled this country's defense 
industries. Devouring people's money and in return pretending to be 
"some shit."

And then they lose it to "Talibans." :)

Yup. I only worked on one DoD project They hired a programmer who lived 
in Seattle. He moved himself and his family across the country to 
Vermont before anybody bothered to ask about his wife. She was a Mexican 
national which disqualified him from the necessary clearance.

The usual problems that come from letting HR hire anybody but janitors 
are aggravated by the hiring is actually done by other contractors, not 
direct employees of the target company. The defense industry spins off a 
lot of niche specialists in separate cottage industries. My nephew did 
very well as sort of a technical writer. He knew the government jargon 
for proposals, design documents, and so forth.

The outcome is very expensive aircraft that don't fly very well, 
littoral combat vessels that can be sunk by a jihadi in a Zodiac, and 
destroyers with weapon systems that the Navy can't afford to buy 
ammunition for.

That experience has been there with them at least since WWII. German 
equipment, especially tanks, could not fight the war against small 
little things Soviets had hurriedly built to throw shells at them. In 
every confrontations from Stalingrad back to Berlin German mighty tanks 
lost the battle against those cheap little things.

Experience is there! But we're dealing with first rate crooks. So 
nothing of that nature would help. It would be like reasongin with 
Jeff-Relf right now.

A guy by the name of Lind has written about 4th generation warfare. The 
1st generation was standing toe to toe with axes and spears. The classic 
18th century model of standing 100 yards apart and firing volleys with 
muskets was the same, If you've ever fired a Brown Bess you understand 
why. The trigger pull is about 25 pounds and the only sighting is 
squinting over the bayonet lug.

The 2nd generation came about when accuracy improved and standing in 
neat lines sucked.  That lasted through WWI and beyond. The French 
really locked on to it and sat in the Maginot line playing Bezique while 
the Germans ate their lunch.

The Germans more or less invented the 3rd generation, move fast and 
break stuff. It worked well until they found you could kill a million 
Ivans and 2 million would come to the funeral.

The military sort of gets 3rd gen although they're still basically 
working on 2nd gen principals with big, expensive projects.

In the 4th generation you don't have nation states fighting each other. 
Everybody gets to play including some lone wold with a spare 5 pounds of 
Semtex. Biden succinctly stated the obsolete thinking when he said 
'They'd need F-15's and maybe some nuclear bombs.' He missed the part 
about Afghanis kicking US ass with Mosin Nagants.

Abbot talks about a 5th generation although Lind isn't a believe. %th 
gen is a normal day on the internet; misinformation, trolling, social 
engineering, cyber attacks, and so forth.

It's gonna be fun.

Since 2016 (if I'm remembering those first contracts dates correctly) 
Big Tech has been steadily pushing old defense industry complexes out of 
government offices by competition. Initially not so enthusiastic about 
it, in 2016 they eventually gave in and opened their might to military 
and government uses. It is cheaper and at least as effective.

A byproduct was Biden's presidency as most of his appointed high 
officials are the same individuals who created such contracts with Big 
Tech. And that's the best clue to what happened in the election. Trump 
wasn't just crying like a baby. Big Tech had a hand in it. A microsoft 
executive was overseeing the election accuracy, wasn't he.

For old school defense industry it's got so bad now that they have to 
destroy or give away present American expensive military equipment if 
they want to stay in business, as we saw in Afghanestan withdrawal.

It's a zoo. This country is not run by scientists anymore like it always 
is in first world countries. "Engineers" and Reagan era cronies took 
over and fucked it up. They literally kicked all scientists out of their 
jobs. They closed down half-finished world's largest particle 
accelerator in Waco, Texas because they didn't even know by then what a 
"scientist" is. They could only understand, vaguely for that, what an 
"engineer" was and is :-( Two Reagan terms had buried those facts under 
U.S. history rubble. And things haven't changed since.

USA is presently _not_ a first world country. Before Reagan it still was.
