As someone who loved it, this was it. We waited forever for the next release which promised a full desktop environment, it never happened, we moved on to stuff that actually existed. I understand there IS ongoing development and even forks, but i frankly have no idea how is it these days. If i found out you can just apt-get a full E-based DE tomorrow i would definitely consider dedicating time to test it, specially if it’s still considered to be among the lightest, because man, when it was at it’s best it was very much the promise of a Hollywood Hacker style desktop, it was awesome and you could do nearly everything on the keyboard, plus it had a gazillion themes.

I’m also on Mint and X11, and intended to stay there for the moment specially since reading the latest David Revoy fully Linux FOSS guide for artists, which showed that many things are still behind in development, this may have changed since then but at least back then i decided to let it cook more before trying it out. I hope development has advanced enough that you can switch to it full time already but honestly i have no idea if it’s there yet.

A study years ago found that the ideal time for copyrights to recover the investment and all that was something like 14 years or something like that (don’t recall exactly), can you imagine if anything older than like 20 years automatically fell into the Public Domain? The kind of wild crazy awesome shit that would be out there?

Didn’t they just elect a right-wing pro-Russia president? Or am i thinking of somewhere else? I’m sure it’s just a coincidence… /s

First i hear of it, is there some sort of diplomatic situation that leads to this?

Well, there’s a niche genre of so-called “Dungeon Core” books, usually a subgenre of the also niche LitRPG genre, where the main character is just that, a dungeon, usually a former human soul that got turned into the core of a dungeon but not always, more books than i expected when i heard of it for the first time not too long ago, i guess that needed it’s representation on tabletop RPGs

Oh boy you’re in for a treat! 3 seasons of it!

Holy shit someone else remembers this movie! Yes! Dunno if i’d defend it as it’s clearly a niche taste but hell, it deserved no hate!

Or an accomplice

Then the corpo lawyer teams say “This is a major legal liability” and say no

Here’s a mirror of the old, old OKCupid blogpost against paid dating apps, some dynamic bits didn’t get properly archived but the info is still there, giving a very strong argument that paid dating apps are by definition bad to find a partner. Then they got bought and the blogpost was deleted literally the next day.

And this is long, LONG before everything started enshittifying, and dating apps went all in on this. By now the odds are very much against you if you wanna find someone on those apps.

Oh yeah, did the same, you just couldn’t avoid it, it’s the thing you just GOTTA do…

And here you go

Feels extremely weird to be on the same side as whatsapp on a privacy issue…

hunter2?

Very much so, but it’s no harem, it’s a huge found family, and it’s fun!

Oh yeah! I look forward to them FINALLY arriving to the sea after aiming for it for most of S1! Love what happens there!

Okay, at that last part i literally had to awkwardly pause it because i audibly and completely lost it for multiple minutes, of freaking course it had to happen! 😂

The damage is permanently done, people have gone to alternatives and won’t come back
