String savers unite!

Trying to use an old router/firewall with my new Pi 5. Connecting to the configuration web interface of the old router resulted in refusal due to TLS version 0.00001 or cert or both. I couldn't override. So I dug out my venerable old Thinkpad (2007 T61), running W8.1 and connected with Internet Explorer. TaDa. That was the first laptop that I used for development. Still had Visual Studio 1901. Has SSD upgrade and I had to replace the NVIDIA board, known problems (thank you eBay). Great machine although heavy to carry and very limited battery life. I replaced it with hand-me-down MacBook Pro, vintage 2014. Seems like I stay in the past. Still using the MB with VM's but rarely go on the road now, do most stuff from here with VPN's. Go ahead fruit haters, pile on! :) Hmmm maybe I should try to install Debian on the T61 and bring it back to life?
>64 It’s weird being the same age as old people.

My fruit hate has evolved over time. I went from never in my house to my daughter having one. I still have zero interest for myself and will rib my coworkers about it. Just the same, use what makes you happy. Just don't tell me how awesome your fruit is while booted into a Windows VM to get work done : ;P
