Server dude: We don't have any free, but I can setup an old server for you.

I know this is starting to get old, but...

I miss old internet.
- without politics
- without robots
- without money
- without big portals
- without commercials
- without advertising
- without data centers
- without ipv6
but with great usenet and community

Shit fuck I’m old

Old, but still gold.

Merry christmas everyone!

I miss my old ZenBook with Linux 😔

I mean, the MacBook is great, but it feels like I left my old simple gf who loved me for a Hollywood sexy bitch who doesn't give a fuck

Probably old but made me laugh way more than it should have XD

Old but gold. Which one should I use for my site? 😏

Old but gold!

Probably old but it made my 5 min of mindless scrolling a little more interesting

A bit old but relatable..😶😑😑

Yesterday I won an old Mac mini at work, then I lost it on the bus back home, but got it back today. What a roller coaster of emotions 😅

Leave a job for a much better job and the old job hires you freelance to do your old job. Feels dirty, but good.

Memories...

Old but gold.
Propably a repost... meh.

I was bored of using my laptop keyboard so I crafted a sliding keyboard holder to replace my old drawer ^^
It took me some hours but I am proud enough of the result !

Old but gold ... And it's true actually

Some people will hate me for bringing up this old meme but.....

...

What does @dfox say?

Facebook memes are slowly getting old already, but this one is hilarious.

Maybe old, but I had to...

Old but gold!

Old. But apt.

My new glasses are coming soon :)

Now I won't be as blind as a blindfolded grandmother inside a dark cave at night!

Everytime I code, my nose practically touches the screen, because even my mom's old glasses don't really help.

I can barley use Devrantron because of my blindness, but at least I can see well on mobile.

If you are wondering how my old ones broke, well, my little sister sat on them. That little demon, I love her, but she's pure evil.

Oh, and she did it on purpose btw. I asked her why and she said she wanted to know how it feels like to sit on glasses. She's not crazy, she's 6 years old lol.

I am old enough to go to jail.
I am old enough to have my own household.
I am old enough to pay my own bills.
I am old enough to have children.
I am old enough to take responsibility for my hypothetical kids and for my self.
I am old enough to gamble, drink and lease cars.
I am a self confident dude who took responsibility for creating machines that were worth millions.
And so on and so on..

But hey, it is ok if the fucking teacher at technical school treats you like a 16 yo pubescent child. Im glad he is interested whether i do my god damn homework. And yes, it is totally fine for me, that im getting treated like a unworthy dog who needs surveillance.
So, maybe i should suggest that we should ask for permission if we want to go to fucking toilet. Yes. That would be great. Gonna do that.

I know it's kinda old but it still gets me every time XD

Ok, old one but still funny.........

In order to get it's attention, you have to turn it on.

That feeling when people don't believe that you, an 18 year old IT student. Have developed a linux os but they have no problem with that a 7 year old developed a game.

Github, you had one job. They are giving out a warning for old safari version, but show the IE icon..

When you spend ages trying to get your JS to work but it just won't.

Then you realise Chrome cached an old broken version...

All this funny shit is 'fun' but fuck. I miss old rants.

I may be old, but my generation fought wars so you could have your precious emojis. I mean, they were browser wars, but many lives were lost and families destroyed.

Working with SSD is like working with an old man. It knows a lot, and tell you things right off the shelve, but it can die at any time.

I’m 42 years old and you can't imagine how complicated it has become to get a job in Latin America, they make you feel old and disposable. But I have a son to raise and I will not rest until I find a better job.

How old were you when you started programming?

I'm curious about that... I want to introduce childs to programming but I'm not sure which age is the correct one to begin.

An old one, but still pretty funny 😂

If Java had true Garbage Collection, it would delete itself.

Might be old, but still

I knew Ruby was old... But I never felt so until I found this tutorial...

Idk how old this is, but that's the first time seeing it, and it's hilarious 😂

I want to leave my job because it only uses old technologies but when I look for jobs they're looking for people with experience on new technologies. Catch-22.

Finally Spend two fucking days debugging shit until I figured it it. Freaking stupid shit encoding problems and old data combined isn't fun. Dafuq why can't everybody use UTF-8 or Unicode or something else but PLEASE stop using some old school IBM shit codepages.
Leckt mich doch am arsch mit diesem scheiß man -_-

Would people use a feature where they could swipe on a rant they've seen. This way newer stuff could be let through but old stuff wouldn't keep popping up every time you reopen devrant.

Installed Elementary on an old machine. Wouldn't boot. Started over fresh, worked the second time, did nothing different. It's pretty, but not sure if I'll keep it.

an 18 year old youtube multimillionaire known as McSkillet lost $200,000 on csgo skins and $700,000 gambling and trading csgo skins so he fell into depression. he took his $265,500 McLaren supercar and ran into the highway in opposite direction to commit suicide, but in doing so he also killed a mom and a 12 year old girl from the car collision explosion.

life is very hard to be an 18 year old teenage millionaire, better commit suicide instead.

how do you guys feel about this?

This is a little old but i came across it a while ago and it made me giggle.

Don't you hate it when you come across a old internet argument but one of the people deleted all of their posts so now you just see a bunch of out of context replies.

A manager, a mechanical engineer, and software analyst are driving back from convention through the mountains. Suddenly, as they crest a hill, the brakes on the car go out and they fly careening down the mountain. After scraping against numerous guardrails, they come to a stop in the ditch. Everyone gets out of the car to assess the damage.

The manager says, "Let's form a group to collaborate ideas on how we can solve this issue."

The mechanical engineer suggests, "We should disassemble the car and analyze each part for failure."

The software analyst says, "Let's push it back up the hill and see if it does it again."

Hi DevRant, the last five years I've been repairing old computers for people who should really upgrade but rather stick to their beloved IE8. I'm sure we'll be friends!

1) bugfixing
2) bugfixing
3) bugfixing

No, seriously, I love finding & fixing bugs.. it never gets old..frustrating at times yes, but it is never boring..

Old but gold! :D

Tried to do a startup for a year, did not make loss but did not get the funding to keep going. Now going back to previous company and taking up the old job. 😔

I guess I could say back to the old LOGO turtle days, but it wasn't until university that I began using the good turbo c compiler and it's DOS platform

Probably old but I feel this pain deep in my heart 😢

What's on your bookshelf? Some of these are pretty old, but still relevant.

Finnaly own a Mac!

Yes she may be an old 2009 model but with the upgraded RAM and added SSD, it's butteryu smooth!

Found my old code.

You gotta admit, that's some clean code there, considering I learned C# only for a year at that time.

But those comments....

Found this in an old project of mine... I think I was fed up with some issues ^^'

Took me a few hours, but managed to finally run Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 on my old school Toshiba laptop running Arch Linux xD Still needs some work, but super happy I got it running :D

bit of an old one but in school we had a photoshop contest

I came 1st

I used only PowerPoint and Publisher

First rant (well, first on devRant anyway)! So, I'm working on a project to refactor a decade old codebase so that all references to ip addresses are in config. It sucks. But I did find an ascii art fish in an old cron script, so that's something.

Rant!
I hate the feeling when you watching an old tutorial and you trying to do the same thing but you find out it's an old tutorial and the library his using is old and the way you should use it changed and there is no other tutorial on how to use the new version 😭
being a newbie at Android dev sucks 😢

Old but Gold

Ah, the old locked up non-gui thread. Bastard gets me every time. My monkey brain says "Button still work, so no infinite loop". Oh, but there DO be infinite loop.

The design process.

Call me old fashioned - but clean-code/clean-architecture/SOLID is not as important as simplicity and coherence.

I JUST NEED FUNCTION THAT DOES STUFF! But noooooo better overly design EVERYTHING!

Found some of my old phones, what should I do with 'em? Almost all of them run LineageOS already (i.e. all but the iPhone 6) with TWRP, so they are definitely available modification

You know that USB joke... well you see this cable fits both ways... Sort of except one doesn't work and will if you force it I guess u could break the input

An old but very exciting riddle

Fine don't take my suggestion during refactoring old code. Keep the python code over 100 lines of code...we could have cut it in half, but whatever

Your first operating system?
I'm 16 years old but mine was... Windows XP.
I used it for 3/4 years and I loved it. I miss you mate.

When a company operates like a startup but they're over 10 years old and they try to do the micro brew lunch thing and be "casual" but they pay you like shit and the boss is a moron.

Pretty old huh? But I still find it funny

Opened an old document using Office, tried hours to move around the document but couldn't.
Then realised, I was pressing 'h', 'j', 'k' and 'l'.
😒😒

Dear algo,

Please stop giving me 30 day old posts, I know I've ++'d one or two here and there, but that does not mean I like specifically old posts. Also I'd rather not be "that guy" that reminds the poster of that post they made a month ago.

Old but funny 😂

I hate my life when I can not learn new frameworks before released. This job post is nearly year old. But guess what?

Old but gold. 😂😂

This is getting WAY out of hand.

So I pay for 100/100 internet right.
I get 3/17...
This has been happening for half a year now...
The closest other ISP is 200km away......

Gonna confront them but they're probably just gonna blame my 2 year old 200$ asus router for being "too old"/"too slow".

Hey folks,

But now I'm back and currently learning kotlin

Hope yall doin good

The happy moment you start a new project a Find that you can use your old code, then realizing you don't remember how it worked but use it anyway.

Well paid java dev. But the HW/SW-Stack is awful.

Monitor: single 1600x1024
5yr old notebook, old i5, magnetic hdd
Forced to use windows 7
No maven server
No CI server
SVN but no git
Eclipse, no intelliJ
No sonar server

There are days where I just can't take it anymore.

I posted one for work already but this little guy sits on my desk at home.

Meet Donkey, he's 32 years old and suffers from male pattern baldness. My mom made him for me when I was 2 years old (thus the odd name I gave him) and he's been with me ever since.

The sudo make me a sandwich is getting old but this is what google gave me.

Old joke but we actually stuck this on our office front door.

Why Nintendo why??!

Why can't you make a normal Pokémon game like in the Gameboy for Mobile Devices!

Pokémon Go is good but I miss the old one. Too much today I guess.

When you've got a lot of cool dev stickers,but you don't wanna waste them on your old laptop.

I just got fired. I don't know if I should laugh or cry, I'm finally free from that slow, obscure, shitty 20+ old dated system, but man, it really sucks to be fired.

One of my old company's customer seriously asked the support what's the difference between ">=" and "="...

Support should have answered that one is faster than the other :D
But life must be hard enough anyway...

I'm starting a clean Sierra installation and I've been using Sublime in my old installations but I wanted to asked you coding monkeys:

Atom, Sublime or Brackets?

Got a new laptop, but it was not properly working, so while waiting for it to get replaced, I have to use the old one again.

Feels like the CPU is a freaking potato!

Very old one but gold, this inspired me alot when I was in University.

Old sayings never die, but they can change meaning:

A question here reminded me of how websites were made long ago. Frames! Remember those little jewels? <frameset> and <iframe>, I still remember them. Man, even then it felt terribly wrong to use them. I remember using them to create web pages with header and side bar.

The only alternative was using <tables>, which, well, we know how they ended up. Frames today have been silently forgotten, but tables have been loudly hated for many years!

Ahhh, those were the times. So much has happened since then.

(Is "website" still a word today, btw?)

Old but gold - try this in the Dev Tools Console and see Batman in action:

Array(16).join("lol" - 2) + " Batman!";

Hi friends.
I'm 19 years old programmer and working already. My father is 47 years old. He don't know anything about programming yet. When he was young he was good in math.
Today when I came home he said that he would like to learn programming too and help me to do some projects in the future. I know it's kind of late for him to start learning something new, but what do you think, what can I do to help him start programming? What's the startpoint for 47 years old man in the world of programming.
P.S. He tried to learn Java watching online tutorials but couldn't understand anything.

I am pretty much a designer.
I hope I didn't give others bad experiences~

Oh well I always loudly rant and get insulting when I see comic sans (in wrong usage) or ugly websites (not old or weird but old looking AND overdesigned 😓).
Probably that's what's most annoying when you're talking about me as a designer.

Got that old mid 2011 MBA and just put Ubuntu 20.04 on it. Tried 18 on it before but didn't really feel right. 20 works great though.

I love it when I can reuse old hardware I have laying around and it works out of the box.😁

Will use it for entertainment purposes, movies, music etc.

Sometimes when I read old code of mine I'm ashamed. But more often when I read others I just feel better.

(I'm talking about other webdev freelancers, not OS projects or so...)

I have pretty old computer but I love it.

"I'm a recruiter for this company that does mostly finances. It's a very stable company. It's over a hundred years old."

That sounds nice, but I can't help but wonder the abyss of legacy codebases a company that old can have. Specially since it's not a dev agency.

Currently taking apart a 25 year old scalextric power supply, trying to work out why one side isn't working. I'm thinking about buying a soldering iron, but can't see anything obviously wrong...

Old but still funny

Call me old fashioned but I'll go with pen & paper!

One that you can discuss those minor bugs with and really Bond with.

I thought if was a myth
hehehehehehe

Has anyone ever been so close to remembering a really old memory but can’t put your finger on it?

Not a prank, per se, but I type using the Dvorak layout. It's hilarious to watch people's confounded reaction as they type, expecting QWERTY output. It never gets old.

Who on here used GeoCities?

I never got to see it since I'm born after yahoo bought it but do you maybe even have your old site to showcase?^^

True its a two days old story but now ReactJs 16 is out, and license is now MIT.
this is a good way to start my day :)

Staying up late at night....i wanna go on till morning but my old screen had done enough damage to my eyes

a very old bicycle shop... my sister is working on a new design for them, but they haven't taken the old page down and she doesn't have access/responsibility for this.

Old but gold: Why do Java programmers use glasses? Because they can't C# *crickets*

I was just in the attic to look for some old school stuff for my sister. But then I found an old carton with old stuff from me. In there I found my very first programming book. "AntMe!" to learn Visual Basic with ants 😄

Found this when I was cleaning my hard drive. 😝

Old but gold.

Looking at an old Java project, running java 1.6, test folder doesn't even exist and the "old but gold" java.utils.Date class is used throughout the whole thing. How do I initialise a new date again...? I actually just googled that :D At least the constructor parameters are named nicely... wait.. what...

I try to do one thing, I try to make one thing a little better and the universe shovels shit in my face. I’m just trying fix all this old outdated shot and I keep getting shit on in so many ways. I’m trying so hard to not become a bitter angry old man but damn if I don’t understand the bitter angry old mans motives right now. Fuck this ongoing onslaught of crashes and shit shows.

My biggest regret is not learning to code earlier in life.

Old but eternal!

"Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new." - Henry David Thoreau

I'm really thinking of starting a new project, started one yesterday but it's a year old now.

My code works.
Well, it should, but not like this.
I've set some datas to a nested form,  saved by a variable named 'stat1', however the code won't work unless I use a variable named 'fields'. Not 'stat1'. I'm only 24 years old and I already feel too old for this shit.

That feeling when you've already moved on from your previous rant and posted a new one - but your old rant keeps getting +1's while your new rant remains stagnant.

Sell me this pen

Yes it's an old one but let's see what you got.

It took 10 hours of my life but I was finally able to do a FRP bypass on an old Android phone!

There's an old adage that says: "Beware the programmer with a screwdriver"

... but I've got to say, it's nice to have people so curious about what I'm doing for a change.

So just got hired to a job... But it seems like more of the same from my old job... Have an interview 2moro... Decisions decisions

I once hoped coding prevents my confusion with new UI as I get old, but I'm 22 and already confused by 3D Touch on iOS. Confronted with my own technological mortality...

Does anyone know of a library I can design UI in HTML/CSS/JS for a C# app?

I need to remake my bot framework, but winforms is just so old.

Programming is stressful. I feel like I'm 50 years old already with white hairs. What non technical job have high salary but lesser stress?

My maths book contains some nice stuff too not just good old boring stuff... But god damn killer bunnies too who will kill you with a right angled triangle.

I want to joke about my grandmother and her old computer, but I feel like the joke is too old.

Old boss that didn't understand anything on computers but expected me to wear 5 different hats and do tasks that we didn't have a structure for.

Code never lies, comments do

Ernest Hemingway and @bittersweet once competed in whose shortest story is the saddest. Ernest wasn't original, boasting his old "baby shoes" charade. But @bittersweet, proving the culture is changed, and new talent beats the old, won, with this story of his:

"CTO is wanted by YC unicorn. Requirements: PHP 5.4".

Being 26 year old, I know it won't last forever, but I will cherish it.

Professional Home File Server Setup.

Using an old laptop and drive I made this. But I had nowhere to store. I have to use Team Viewer to even access it now for maintenance.

Dear Prestashop developers, f**k YOU!

I already hate this shitfuck what you call the best open source e-commerce solution, but your module validation technique sucks.

They use tons of useless rules, but the last addition was the last drop: they force you to use the old (and long) array declaration.

So now I have 500 new errors in this fucking module.

Why the fuck do you want me to force an old syntax?

changed my name!

from awruh to aysentur now... can be spelled out better. I hope so at least, lmao.

my old name was created due to lack of creativity but the need of a username, so I smashed my keyboard... and that was what came up. aysentur has some more thought in it though not something meaningful.

new name old me

I hate it when someone says ist all documented, but its just a bunch of old crappy word documents with mostly unusable information in it...

Just wanted to clean up and update my old smartphone (Huawei Y300). Accidentally deleted the home screen and system.ui and can no longer open apps. TRWP (2.5.x) is too old to flash a new image. Need TRWP 2.6.3.3, but it is impossible to update it from within TRWP. Such a crap.

I get it, I didn't read up before I acted, but seriously?

"Starting with Firefox version 67 each Firefox installation requires a separate profile."

Then I went to uninstall the new version of Firefox so I could stay with the old. It uninstalled the old version. Now I have a version of Firefox with no uninstall option that won't talk to my old profile. I found options for this, but really? Is firefox becoming a shit hole now? Have I just noticed that it already was a shit hole?

Pissed, thinking of going over the Edge...

As a keyboard enthusiast I can’t help but cringe when my coworker slaps and slams down on his 10 year old gross disgusting Logitech membrane keyboard.

I've been infcted with writing awful, sinful, obscure code, so others can't read or change it.

Recently i got my first full time job as a programmer (yay). It's with a company with 15+ year old system and they are currently upgrading it. But it's driving me crazy with the massive mess of old and new code. However it only gets worse! Instead of making it simple and nice to read, they want it over complex, just to get something from the database i have create at least 5 fucking classes and endless SQL code, the old system didn't requier any SQL or the creation og new classes, WTF. I've become a sinner, of corse i use the old system, but i do it secretly, and i obscurify my code so others can't understand. It's shameful, but i'm afraid to confront the older programmers, they've spend too much time in the system and they've been in the business for a lot longer than me.

Was digging through an old HDD's OEM Windows recovery partitions and found FON-format fonts that are accurate to several old systems. Several Commodore and Amiga ones (some for 80-char mode too!) and lots of DOS ones. They have names and everything, but I can't use them after installing them... (there were a few blank ones in there too, which is odd...)

A dev today tried to tell me that a full copy of a VM in XenServer copies all of the data but magically pulls old code. Long story short, he was wrong.

I need to finish a project where the boss is a nice woman (maybe 55 years old), and her assistant (30-35 years old). Guess who is always asking about any single button? Who is always saying "But that label is ugly", "I don't understand that", "Maybe we need some new features..." Yeah, the assistant. She hates us and we hate her

Are people overestimating my abilities or am I underestimating myself??
Could it be both???

Idk. But my old classmates definitely think I'm more capable than I actually am 😅😅

I am an idiot.

Apparently, I was running 2 year old drivers for my APU. I didn't notice until today but now that I did, I get those sweet performance improvements.

I used to write games on my parents old zx spectrum. I never did end up going into the games industry, but it taught me BASIC and later C++

I know I shouldn't do this, but I'm so frickin bored I end up resuming tasks from work here at my parents' house, in my old bedroom.

Anyway, merry christmas and happy holidays!

Old comic strip but still relevant.

Sports. Without sports I would never get my head free from my dev thinking. But getting my head free is necessary to get new ideas and solve old problems.
