Don’t bother with the console. I got started there and got hooked before I realized that they were going to kill it off. No updates, none of the “where to find it” database stuff works becuase of the split and generally almost no people now.

Just get it on Steam for PC if you are inclined to play. It’s a fun game. I stopped about a year and a half ago (just looked the other day whilst perusing Steam Sale) for many reasons, but I’m sure I’ll be back to visit some day!

Nextcloud needs to port over some of the old OC Documentation. Their own docs make all kinds of references and it’s always something esoteric.

Speaking of saber rattling, I found this quote mildly amusing:

The flex notably comes amid persistent tensions with Russia, which has been rattling the nuclear saber lately

“lately”? I mean, if you’re saying repetetive nuclear threats for 2 years + since starting a war with Ukraine, then sure?

Not singing loud enough - straight to jail.

Surprisingly, singing too loud? Also straight to jail.

Truly, email is (thankfully) mostly unspoiled as a protocol since it’s beginning. Other than minor improvements and additions like HTML and spam filters and the like, anyone can host an email service and interface with anyone else on the Internet with the same protocol.

Imagine having $700 million, having almost no responsibility, and still being that much of a putz.

100%.

F-that! Take pride… Mint is ridiculously good. Well managed, stable, “just works” and yet has all the capabilities you want, including auto-running near the edge for current kernels (backed down to stable) without doing jack. You can run at the bleeding edge if you want to manage it yourself.

And for any haters - here’s my take: I’ve been working with Unix for 30+ years, I installed Slackware off of floppies when 16MB of RAM was god-like. I have built, compiled and managed nearly every distro at some point certainly the upstream giants. I’ve been there for the birth of all of them. I’ve also professionally worked on AIX, SunOS/Solaris, HPUX. Yes there’s a lot of fun in maintaining and running things to your satisfaction, but when you hit a certain inflection point of balancing your real life and maintaining distros across multiple machines and decide “This is the way” - Mint just fits the bill on so many levels.

Mint is the bomb and I’m done pretending. Fight me (not you, OP, you’re cool)
