@foone I don't know if it counts for anything, but I at least recognise that if I was ever looking for a systems developer who can dig deeply into a complicated system, you'd be a shoe in.

And, it's the kind of work I point to that I'm incapable of when I'm accused of being a very good programmer.

@Gargron I'm on a few Mastodon servers as a user, and I haven't looked for or noticed any changes of features, yet.
But - I haven't noticed anything - software dev to software dev - is fantastic: it means you've released a major change which is stable and consistent enough that I haven't noticed it as a user. As a dev who hasn't always successfully done that, well done. It's a sign of the quality of your testing and review.

@arstechnica I keep seeing the lessons from Weapons of Math Destruction laid bare and ignored

@foone Wait, is that the bizarre, ridiculously hard one that I played on an emulator years ago, that features Tim Tailor fighting dinosaurs among other things?

@aral An elegant design when I checked it out

@arstechnica "Energetically"

@arstechnica What a knob

@mntmn it's been a while since I used it... so I'm sorry, I can't confirm either way

@mntmn You can finally abandon the shackles of Chromium and Firefox and switch to the one true browser: w3m. With pictures!

@foone I've seen a few Laserdiscs in my time... but never seen an actual CED except in youtube videos about obscure formats. Where did you find it?

@nixCraft ... ThinkPad?
