Not that I insist, it just seemed interesting to me 🤷
It's very capable despite being in the early stages — so it's just not old enough to be in Debian repos, besides it's in Nim and I'm not sure Debian even ships software like that.
What license does it use? 🤔

@swaggboi
Well, no big deal — I've used fetchmail to download it all.
And I still have my Outlook account. They don't make it easy to use it, now they have introduced that OAuth2 shit, but there are still ways around it. I keep it because I think I have Windows and maybe some other licenses on it.

I've lost one of my very old email accounts on Yandex when they introduced app passwords last year, and I couldn't get in via web interface to generate one — obviously I didn't use my real identity so I could not answer any questions.
And I have deleted my Gmail account myself, they kept insisting on having my phone number so I couldn't get in 9 times out of 10. Funny enough, they didn't let me download the archive without giving them phone number, but let me delete the account 🤦

@mirabilos
There is a new (and really good) TUI browser — chawan, it has decent CSS support and also supports Gemini, it can display images if your terminal emulator supports sixel — and for some reason it even supports WebPee. Yeah, I know… I should patch it out.

Sorry for not providing a link, I'm on my phone, you can look it up on SourceHut. The browser itself is defitely worth checking out, among terminal browsers I think it's as good as elinks if not better.

@swaggboi
I'm thinking of deleting my Deviant Art account, but I'm not sure its recovery email account still exists 😂

@amoroso
Yes, most probably so, but marketing that thing as "thin" still feels weird to me.
And I don't think I'm alone… There is a certain user review mentioned on its page:

There are quite interesting specimens listed there, like HP t740:

CPU: AMD Ryzen Embedded V1756B 3.25-3.6GHz (8 cores)
GPU: Radeon Vega 8 Graphics, with optional Radeon E9173 supports up to six (!) displays at 3840x2160@60Hz
Storage: 16GB-512GB (3 x M.2 slots, one can only be used for wireless cards though, 1Tb module worked in at least 1 of them)
RAM: 4-32GB (64GB Max)
> In March 2023 Eric reported that he was happily using his t740 with 2 x 32GB SODIMMs

"Thin" client 😂🤣😂

@gemlog
Damn! I knew lead was harmful or course, but not to this extent 🤯

@romin
That would actually be great!
Instead I'm getting force-fed with all this shiny shit that I'm *supposed to* want, but never asked for, then I'm *strongly suggested* that I have to pay for it in one way or the other 😩

There is an old Samsung NC-10 netbook lying around in my “hardware archive”. The Intel Atom CPU in there is 32bit only, which somehow limits which operating system to choose. I decided to give Haiku a try, and it runs quite fast and smoothly on the device. Several years back, I installed a SSD into the NC-10, which might be at least part of the reason. #haiku #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #nc10

@purusa
There is logrotate that automates it a bit.
AFAIR, originally a Debian tool, but you can use it anywhere — I'm using it on my Void machine to handle nginx logs.

In Russian they also "steal", but manage to break the stolen in the process — the third way no one asked for 🤣

@genmaicha

@newt
In Russian, due to being transliterated into a different alphabet, this shit at times doesn't make any sense at all, you pronounce it very differently from the way it's written: "it's an exception, you just have to remember it",— it's literally what they teach you in school!
In case with Japanese, I think it's just transliterated awkwardly, but then just read as if it would be written in kana: social.librem.one/@m0xee/11371

@genmaicha

@newt
That is true for loanwords in most languages — in English these exceptions at least make some sense, probably due to being borrowed mostly from European languages using the same Latin alphabet — but even with Greek ones it still makes some sense: you see certain sequences of letters and you can guess where the word came from and how it's pronounced.

@genmaicha

@newt
And we aren't arguing much — just exchanging thoughts. I could've taken your side, it just won't be as fun. Like I said, I'm not even practicing what I preach here, I'm using «ё» — not only the letter, but these weird quotation marks too, these aren't present in any standard layouts, I have to use specialised ones to enter them — or compose-key incantations.

@newt
> a language that is incapable of expressing Ulysses is certainly a gimped one
Well, it seems English wasn't enough for Finnegan's Wake — he had to borrow from other languages 😂

@genmaicha

@djsumdog @kirby @ZySoua
Why though? 🤔 In this here case her moving on is the immediate outcome of him overdosing.
I think the whole courtesy of respecting the dead was made up by really bad people so others wouldn't be literally shitting on their graves when they're gone.
