@toxi@mastodon.thi.ngBeam me back, Scotty!
(To one of my favorite places on this planet... We went till the foot of the 1000 meter tall vertical ice fall in the very back, past the beaten paths... #FootpathFriday and belated #ThrowbackThursday time)
@smurthys@hachyderm.io#tbt: It was a little more than two years ago that I came across this gem of an item:

@AdamCoffman@mathstodon.xyzFor #ThrowbackThursday - a set of scanned photo prints from my 1997 visit at the Oberwolfach institute followed by some tourist time in Frankfurt. Apparently at the time I was more interested in photos of landscapes than of the other famous visitors at the workshop on Schubert varieties.

@jtk@infosec.exchangeIf you can conjure fond memories of Commander Keen, .arj files, nc (one of my favorite utils), shareware like SCAN108.ZIP (yea, probably in caps)... you probably spent a fair bit of time at the C:\> prompt when you weren't dialed into your favorite BBS. And like me, you're getting old :-)
#ThrowbackThursday
@scottmiller42@mstdn.socialFlashback to August 8, 2019, when a top-tier 1 TB SSD was $107.99 with free shipping.
Crucial was a brand known for top-quality consumer products at competitive prices. They are no more as Micron ended the brand at the end of 2025 to shift production to enterprise parts for AI data centers. Another casualty of the global warming bullshit machine.
I took this screenshot on August 8, 2019, before buying one.

@smurthys@hachyderm.ioHow much household stuff can you move across 8 states, 1600 miles, in a Chevy Sonic? π
A lot as my wife and I established in Nov. 2020 at the height of COVID. ποΈ #throwback
Anyway, sad to say goodbye to that car today. π #donation

@smurthys@hachyderm.ioJan. 9, 2025: A vibrant portrait of Krishna and his consort Rukmini. I found it stashed behind stuff on top of a storage closet at an office in #Udupi #Krishna Matha, #India.

@smurthys@hachyderm.io#throwback: I don't know how long this conch has been in my family, but I've seen it since my childhood, generally used like once a year. π
Some of the brown is inherent but the rest should come off if someone cared. Perhaps I should. π
