This is your yearly reminder to check your jumper settings.
I’m all for tolerance, but I’m more of a SCSI man myself.
Guess the BDSM folks with their Master/Slave relationships are included in Pride.
I’m loving these parodies
What’s that suposed to be? Seems like I have another meaning for “IDE”
The IDE standard was used to connect hard drives and optical drives in from the late 80’s to the mid 00’s. Also known as ATA, it was renamed Parallel ATA when its successor, Serial ATA (SATA) came onto the scene.
Thanks
Parallel ATA-boys
What x)?
IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) is the more commonly known name for what was also called Parallel AT Attachment (shortened from Parallel AT Bus Attachment).
The newer drive standard, SATA means Serial AT Attachement.
Yea but I didn’t get the comment
Thanks
Parallel ATA-boys
You might be thinking of “IED”
Very different!
Could also be thinking of Integrated Development Environment, the program software developers spend most of their days using. (Combining a text editor, file manager, compiler, and debugger.)
“Integrated development environment” was thhe first thing I thought of personally.

I’m too young for this 👀
Watch out, gen Z is here!
Here is some reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directory_(computing)
How is this related?
It’s a joke based on the Verge article from last year(?) that said Zoomers don’t know what files and folders on a computer are.

I guess I’m very out of the loop!
Fortunately I know that a folder is an envelope that contains multiple papers, and files mean papers that refer to something specific. And all of these can be put on top of your computer, which most people do because the big computer box is flat and good for storing things on it.
I mean seriously, people don’t know this?
IDE Master Slave Month
No….
Wait …!!! It wasn’t meant like that!!!
Nice jumper. ;)
I sure don’t miss having to move the stupid jumpers for master/slave drives and then losing one of the bastards and having to try and jam a paperclip alongside the pins with some scotch tape to insulate it. Cable select was always a lie.
Wow, I had forgotten doing this. Amazing. I remember seeing m.2 drives probably 5 years after they came out and going wtf is this thing. I’ll be dead soon jim
I excitedly told my girlfriend who’s big into PC overclocking that my SSD does 500mb/s. Hers is one of these newfangled M.2. NVMe drives does 5000mb/s. She also asked me if a mechanical hard drive does around 500mb/s too… I’m like 25 and right there with ya.
Don’t forget SCSI termination. There was always some extra piece of junk you needed to make it all work. No wonder we all have “the box” in the basement/attic with all the extra cables squirreled away.
Now you take a tiny board a little bigger than a stick of gum, and press it onto the motherboard. Smaller footprint than a DIMM, mind-blowing amounts of solid-state storage. Drives? Naw, we just have chips where the "1"s stick around after you turn it off.
IDE was fine.
Molex, however, can go fuck itself to eternity.
I swear the manufacturing tolerances for molex were “fuck it, looks about right” based on some connectors I had to use.
…and yet IDE is phased out and Molex lives on to torment us.
Where were these drives in March?
Heh, remember bent pins?
Beware the Integrated Drive Electronics of
MarchJunePridemonth also has the word ride and month.
Ide
Ride
Deamon. Month.Hmmm
Don’t forget emo and demo
So this is the gay agenda
I thought they were all SATA-nists, but NVMe.
I am impressed by this
I was there Gandalf, 3000 years ago
