@NanoRaptor Bring CRTs back!

@L2actual @briankrebs That's because it was a multi-choice poll, actually 😉

@w84death I know you're the one writing the OS and I'm the one watching, but have you heard of the PROGMEM keyword in Arduino C++? It allows you to store data that would usually be in RAM in flash. (I see you tagged Clang though)

@arraybolt3 I decided to give Unity another chance some years ago, and installed it and ran it. It locked up (Not the OS; Unity froze). Well... 🤷‍♂️

@arraybolt3 My experience was one of lots of bugs and glitches. The concept was there, and I liked it, but the implementation was so bad, as I said, I went back to Windows. (This was early on in my Linux experience; I don't think I was really aware of "distros" and desktops at the time.)

@Gargron Happy anniversary!

@arraybolt3 Back when I first tried Linux, Unity was so bad I went back to Windows.
Ubuntu has gotten a lot better. I wonder how Unity is now.

@agx Thinking to include little features like this are one of the main ways I judge the quality of software. Neat job!

@256 Hmm, do you follow @NanoRaptor ?

@royal Yeah they're not bad, really.

@JoeRess I hear a lot of Linux people say to buy a Brother printer.

The next time someone will try to take over the world will be when a printer company makes a printer that actually works. All offices will instantly buy it to replace their printer-shaped objects they have for some reason and they instantly get rich

@NanoRaptor Wow, that's what I would always call "computer purple" right there! Like, *exactly*. What a coincidence. Hex values?
I like using it as a temporary color in themes, like for e.g. boxes that appear when you drag-and-drop to show you where what you are dragging will land.

@system76 I screen hinge on top of the body instead of diagonally on the back, in 2024? That's awesome!

@ActionRetro Nah! I was running Haiku on my friend's Ryzen 9 build the other week. Very... smooth

@NanoRaptor b r u h you just keep cranking them out
