I haven't seen it - any relation to the Swedish artist Stålenhag?

Pic? I've never heard of this.

I loved win XP, but it's been steeply down hill since then, to this unbearable toddler ui. So I'm with you on that one. I've been on *nix for 20+ years now.

If you want to do basic window manager things, like press the meta key (also referred to as the winows key on non-macbooks) + direction arrow to have a window snap to a quadrant of your screen, you have to install a 3rd party application with Homebrew.

you don't need brew to install a window manager, although the fact that brew lets you treat it like a linux box is great.

Please tell me more.

My new job gave me a Mac. First one I've used ... that has a colour screen, and boy have things (and myself) changed in the interim. I spent the entire first day figuring out what the buttons even do. Am I really expected to use the mouse (well, trackpad) this much? The first port replicator I bought only did one screen, I'm hoping the one now in the mail does better...

Imagine driving 18 light hours. 😬 How long would that even take??

Look into rooting it and putting a different Android rom on it, I'm sure there's something for your phone to extend its life quite a bit.

...unless you're tired of that phone.

So you are the one who killed YouTube.

Never let it be said that a single person can't make a mark on this world.

😉 No really, I just wish you success with your endeavour.

Longitude is the film that, for me, made him stand out as an actor.

3.11 is Python for Workgroups, right? Feels like it came out ages ago....

Inclement weather, just FYI. Although, your spelling also makes a lot of sense in the current times...

Not bashing your point though, that's a good one.

I'm grateful you folks are doing something to combat the rising water levels.

"Good bot human"

I've seen you around on occasion. I wanted to thank you for doing this probably menial task but also ask, out of curiosity, why you're doing it?

I’m not a native English speaker.

Neither am I, but I've yet to meet someone enjoying depression to the point of getting a "high" out of it.

Time may be linear, but life and learning is not. I'm 49, and was diagnosed with adhd at 47 -- let me tell you, that put my past in perspective. I, too, have had many, many more failures than I'd like, and have had my battles with my inner demons. I'm still around, and want to provide as much compassion as I needed then. So I'm very glad to hear back from you, total stranger.

Be proud of your core identity. Have faith that things will work out. They may not be perfect, but in life there is zero guarantee of things being "fair" so be greatful for what little you feel that you do have going for you. I'm cheering for you.

Semicolon tattoo gang member checking in. I am not a bot.

Being "high" on depression sounds very snarky and I do not believe you. I wish you to be well.

This is me reaching out to you, saying the world is a better place for having you in it. If you disagree, I insist that you send me a PM so we can talk it over.

You are a worthy human being.

Good bot.

I am so happy to see some of the useful bots make a reappearance here. And you got yourself quite the nifty name, too.

Hey umm so ... homeopathy. There is a case to be made --hear me out here please-- that it might have been effective once, but now we've got millions of "practitioners" doing things that clearly do not work.

The reasoning is obvious.

The concentration of practitioners within the population is clearly too damn high (insert meme here). To show how effective it can truly be, all we need to do is to dilute the ratio ... by a lot.

Don't you agree that this is worth looking into?

(/s in case anyone is in doubt)

Fastmail

Ohh, this does indeed look quite fantastic. I am certainly going to look more into this. Thank you!

_Edit: Ah, but $50/user/year. For the whole family that adds up real fast. Still, nice tip.

Yes. My previous job used Linux (and OpenVPN), but I started a new job recently, which involves Windows 10 (and three separate VPN apps) on my workstation, and it's driving me insane! I can't even find half the settings in looking for, the start menu is a mess (until I found OpenShell which introduces an XP like start menu!), and the eternal requests to restart the damn thing. It drives me nuts.

I quite disagree, it is very hard. Sure, switching search engine takes all of two seconds, and email can be had from many vendors free and commercial.

But calendaring! A calendar that is at least somewhat integrated with am email client, supports more than one actual calendar, and has real-world capability to share them with others - "if you succeed in this, two me how."
