Guess the BDSM folks with their Master/Slave relationships are included in Pride.
I’m all for tolerance, but I’m more of a SCSI man myself.
Beware the Integrated Drive Electronics of
MarchJuneIDE Master Slave Month
No….
Wait …!!! It wasn’t meant like that!!!
Nice jumper. ;)
You kids have “serial” ATA? Ohhhh, watch this. Imma shoot these bits down this set of wires. Simultaneously.
So this is the gay agenda
I thought they were all SATA-nists, but NVMe.
I am impressed by this
What’s that suposed to be? Seems like I have another meaning for “IDE”
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?
You might be thinking of “IED”
Very different!
“Integrated development environment” was thhe first thing I thought of personally.
This ^
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.)
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
I love the PATA PATA of
little feetold drives.Those socks will get pretty SCSI.
This is your yearly reminder to check your jumper settings.
Heh, remember bent pins?
I’m loving these parodies
Stay in your grave, IDE!
NO.
SATA(N) IS BANISHED FROM THIS HOUSE
Edit: wait actually this is dumb. Isn’t every single modern drive IDE, as in they have their controller onboard? The 40 pin connector is PATA
IIRC Apple drives, like those in the Mac Studio, use a version of NVMe that doesn’t have the controller onboard which is why they were so hard to reverse engineer.
That’s “Bare” NVMe, the linux kernel supports such devices but I really fail to see the fucking poing™
Apple of course probably did so to fuck the consumer
The cables were awful yet intriguing
I was a master at origami-ing the shit out of them to route them while avoiding blocking airflow…
Still have a big bag of 40pin IDE cables in my closet. Probably time to say goodbye one of these days.
The second you get rid of them you are gonna need them
I’ve used them to extend arduino connectors in the past. Works great.
40-channel Stereo, dude!
Yeah it’s not worth the risk
Better hang onto them for another 10 years, you’ll never know when IDE makes a comeback.
Today’s obsolete computing is tomorrow’s retro computing.
Big ol’ ribbon cables are useful for not-ide things
Thats a terrible idea you might need those for some reason in the future and the only way to assure you don’t is by keeping them forever and making the your next of kins problem.
Pridemonth also has the word ride and month.
Ide
Ride
Deamon. Month.Hmmm
Don’t forget emo and demo
Where were these drives in March?
