We have a perfectly functioning iPad1 (2?) and a somewhat younger Android tablet. There are no OS updates, you can’t install any new software, and on most cases even browsing is broken.

What about Enkidu?

I’m shocked I had to scroll this far for the first fluxbox/Enlightenment/windowmaker user

Kerbal Space program wasn’t on the list, and maybe OpenTTD? The latter is also great when you have a random setup (the game is 10Mb, runs in anything and has zero needs) and have only 20 minutes to play.

Does it make floppy sounds?

Here only those data are available for search that are older than 100 years in case of birth certificates and maybe 50 for deaths. So you would need to know at least your grandparents’ birth data to start…

It depends… Are we speaking about keeping only tall blonde kids? Or aborting a fetus with 95% Down syndrome? Angelman’s? Some other even worse? Stopping a possibility fatal pregnancy? Where do you put the line?

So… Is this Aladeen news or Aladeen news?

I tried that as well, but for me it was like being 10 again: -you meet the bandits -I, the lvl1 player kill them all -OK -I just remembered my party had a necromancer, raise the corpses -sure thing -I march around with my undead army and murder everyone who is in my way -This game is about creativity and cooperation -Not today -OK

I checked it, it’s not :)

Lots of astronomical objects have names, but somehow it’s asteroids and maybe craters that really got the naming hype, there are hundreds of them named after scientists, poets, the discoverer’s teacher, you name it. It’s a nice custom.

Disclaimer: I might be slightly biased, as I proposed my wife with naming one of them (asteroid, I mean).

Not if you already don’t look at the keyboard while typing, plus you use multiple layouts

These are nice, but on the other hand there’s the case where you have a limited time slot somewhere and windows randomly decides that it’s time to update, pop up a window to upload your data to “the cloud”, reboot, and bang, you’re f*cked.

As far as I know there would be, it’s just that nobody is using them that way

Where’s enlightenment and windowmaker?

I don’t mind bashing Musk for a second, but as far as I know China follows a startup mentality with electric cars - the government supports the industry so they can sell cars below their actual price, and once they killed all their competition they can increase.

There’s no fair winning against this policy

You can have a computer with multiple users, one prefers gnome, the other kde. Say, they also want to access the computer through cnc, but these are too slow for that, and one prefers windowmaker, the other enlightenment. It works just fine. You can run all these four at the same time.

But what do you do if that field is needed? A throwaway address won’t work as it’s easy to recreate. Buy your own domain and run a server?

I strongly disklike any subscription, but having to choose between paying for a high-end gaming rig that I rarely have the opportunity to use and paying 10$ or so for renting a cloud VM instance for the few months I get through a game, I choose the latter. Also, upgrading hardware is somebody else’s problem.

Thanks, I learned a lot :)
