Really cool initiative, and with a really pleasant community. The author lives on a boat, using only electricity generated with solar panels. Xcode didn't work out that well under those circumstances, which was one of the driving forces to create uxn. Another is the desire to make programs that can run pretty much anywhere, and will remain possible to run in the future. Similar to how you can run NES roms on lots of devices. Also, "Devine Lu Linvega" is just the name of someone you'd follow in battle, even if it's a battle that will lead you to your certain death. Just saying.

  This is such an absurd thing to be upset about. The name is a reference to an anime. This artist has also released music under the name of Aliceffekt Sorry to break it to you but Doja Cat doesn't have any relation to the Felidae family of mammals You know, writing under a pseudonym was also the norm about a century ago. I doubt throwaway0x7E6 is your real name as well you poser

    it doesn't upset me one bit, I'm just pointing out to the poster above that he's been misled. surely you'll agree with me that it's much cooler to have Max Thundercock in your birth certificate than to adopt it as a pseudonym later in life

      How has the above commenter been misled? If someone uses a name for a context, that is their name for that context. Devine has given talks and performs much of their work under this name, why does it matter when it was taken?

        because the original poster was selling people Devine based on how cool a moniker they had. It's a stupid gripe, but imagine that you're an enlisted soldier who is working their way into getting into the squadron lead by 'Tommy the Terrible' -- a simple example but i'm a simple guy, and it relates to battle analogy earlier. Once you arrive you realize that Tommy the Terrible was just given his first command, he was promoted to the position due to being the member of a powerful family, and he commanded his unders to only refer to him as 'Tommy the Terrible', rather than gaining the title through the respect of his triumphs and leadership ability. In other words, a name given by oneself has less impact in most societies than one achieved through achievement or familial ties. Anyway, that whole differentiation is ridiculous within this context, I just thought it was necessary to explain. Devine has earned the cool moniker, self-administered or not.

This is such an unfit simile. Your birth name is not "earned" either. You think Elon Musk's kid earned the name X Æ A-Xii (or deserved depending on your perspective)?
