minus-squareHTTP_404_NotFound@lemmyonline.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·10 months agoAmateurs. I have evolved from using file extensions, and instead, don’t use any extension!
minus-squareH4mi@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up17·10 months agoI don’t even use a file system on my storage drives. I just write the file contents raw and try to memorize where.

Amateurs.
