Yep, I’m in it for the fun.

Thanks, those are pretty awesome. Glad I’m not the only one overly nostalgic for these old screensavers. Looks like I misremembered the name though, I’ll have to update my documentation.

Glad you like it. I’m trying to figure out if I can get it to function as a screensaver using xautolock. I just need to figure out how to get it to fullscreen the new terminal window opened by my bash script before running asciiskyline.

“Star Wats” sounds about right

Agreed, I love this part of long drives to out of the way destinations. Definitely better in older cars without obnoxious touch screens.

I enjoy some games that can simulate this too, like Elite Dangerous scooting around in the lander on the dark side of some barren planet deep in uninhabited space. Not the same as the real thing of course, but I still enjoy it.

Sounds awesome, I’m in

Everyone where I live: “Nothing grows out here!”

I mean, if you tear out all the local growth and try to instead grow foreign things that aren’t suited to this environment, yeah.

I’m just here to point out that the image looks like a sand crawler. Utinni!

Ubuntu 8.04, Hardy Heron. I miss loving Ubuntu

I’m in the first camp. Atomic distros sound really neat, but I’m already happy where I am. I wish I could convince the people I work for to stop wanting to jump to some new framework or environment just because it has some neat additional features they didn’t know they wanted until someone tried to sell them on it. I don’t want to keep rebuilding and converting the same project. (And putting any new feature development on hold while we do so. I wonder why it seems like new ideas never get followed through on.)

Heck yeah man, do it

cmus forever!

He’s still not getting one from me

I continue pulling the plug on Google

Man, I’m just glad to finally see someone else saying they have issues with Fedora. Everyone seems to think it’s amazing and stable but it never lasts more than a few months for me. I don’t do any tinkering or hacking or anything, just web browsing, Python coding, some light gaming with Steam. Arch and Debian both hold up great for me doing the same stuff.

I love ncdu for seeing where all my storage is being taken up.

The first time I used wget I felt so awesome. I was grabbing some extra music files I think it was for Ur-Quan Masters.

I don’t know man, I’m still an amateur on this whole scene, admittedly. I do know that when my loved ones are put at risk I’m not just going to shrug and say, “guess this is just how it’s gonna be, voters voted for it.” It’s unsurprisingly feeling just like the last time Trump was in power. I happen to be of a demographic that is at minimal risk personally, but my neighbors are being threatened and their property has been vandalized with hate speech. They’re scared to leave the house. I’ve got family and friends being told they don’t deserve to have the same rights as everyone else and targeted by open acts of hatred. A lot of Americans may have voted in support of this kind of thing, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to just shut up, roll over, and accept it. If that’s considered throwing a tantrum, then okay. I would expect anyone to throw such a tantrum in the same kind of circumstances, including my political opposites.

I see all these comments roasting the protestors, but I’m just glad people are angry. It would have been great if the election went differently, but it didn’t, and we are where we are. Support people getting mad with how things turned out. Stop acting like all these people did nothing until now. I voted, and I’m protesting. I’ll happily welcome non voters in the protests too. Turn your frustration and anger against the people you oppose instead of willing allies.

I loved 8! I got so into the characters and their stories. I was always excited to see more Laguna & Co. I remember downloading the Eyes On You song, probably off one of those sketchy P2P music sharing services.
