I’m glad I never found that option. ;)

How?

No dual boot here, Windows is confined to a VM. Even in the ancient times I had dual boot, last century, Linux was always the default.

I use a tablet for gaming, Linux for almost everything and a windows vm for de-DRM’ing books I boiught so I can read them the way I want. Windows vm is just for when I have no other option.

That takes me back… I’m feeling ancient.

Argh. But be glad they didn’t add tomato. Also technically correct, but you wouldn’t want it.

I’d advice to look into ipv6 tunnels and try to get that working. Abandon ipv4 when your isp refuses to ipv6.

Hell no. School was the worst time of my life, I was glad I could decide to skip school days when the education was hugely lacking and study quietly at home. The school system held me back hugely, as the higher level kids were kept back by the kids strugling. Also the constant bullying at school made me hate being amongst people.

It was wet and cold (10°C) during the day, dry and warm (12°C) at 23:15 when I walked the dog yesterday. It hasn’t happend very often that in winter the night are warmer.

I have to admit, we had a christmas 2-3y ago where we worked in the garden, as it was the only dry and warm day for months.

I guess because they think they are superior and forget that human rights include their own rights.

So yea, the “because they’re stupid” answer sums it up nicely.

With a 24" QHD screen, text mode would be a tad weird.

They can, when they limit CO2 emissions as much as possible and compensatw for the remaining emissions by planting trees and other tricks.

Also, ‘being carbon neutral’ can mean several things:

• ensure the company doesn’t produce CO2 (net)
• ensure the company and the commute of the employees doesn’t produce CO2 (net)
• … plus suppliers
• … plus transport of the goods produced
• …

And so on,… it all is just how you define it.

My house is the greenest in the neighbourhood and probably in the country. That it has nothing to do with being eco friendly but more with the paint on it is just a minor detail. ;)

The window manager is just to fit a load of xterms on the desktop. (12 on my 1st desktop)

I’m not sure about the latter. I get drowsy when drunk and fall asleep. Others have a ‘bad drunk’ and get violent.

Nop, not here. (BTW that was in '89)

However when opening emacs in '94 I opened an xterm to kill it (on IRIX).

Keep using Linux, for the 30th year. Started in '94 with Slackware 1.2, RedHat 1/1.1 in '95 and switched to Debian at the end of '95 (0.93 R5 or R6). I was running OS/2 for my BBS in that time, with a link to my Linux system with internet since august '95. I had a terminal with null-modem cable next to my bed for IRC, 10 Mbit connection at my room. (campus of UTwente in the Netherlands)

Was fun messing about with that stuff.

According to Wikipedia it’s based on google authenticator. Is it known how much google code is still in there?

3. Magic happens

Most chat people live in the UGT timezone. ;) It’s easier to say morning when joining a chat and evening when you leave then try to figure out the timezone of everybody. That was on IRC.

Most still use it in other chats, when joining the 1st time that day (usually after a night of sleep), you greet.

I’m one of those that just can’t avoid using windows at work. At least at work they come with a very useful adition, windows sysadmins. They already learned that giving Linux apecialists admin rights. (It gets harder and harder to deny any Windows knowledge)

Haven’t used windows at home since 3.11.

When searching, dots, when downloading, who cares?

When searching, dots act as and, spaces as or (at least in qtorrent). The dots makes searching easier.
