I just want this whole idea to kindly please bog off. We shouldn't be further creating the apparatus of the surveillance state.

The author is 21 (which I find incredibly impressive) and is using a DE that was written when they were a baby. It _is_ lightweight in that context. I also love the fact that XaoS knowledge is useful in the context of "real software&qu

Toileting is really fecking important. As someone with a spinal injury you really don't realise just how important until it goes wrong. Apparently one of the down sides about the previous system was that the separation of solid and liq

The entire cockpit, front toilet and galley area, and probably a front row seat have all been utterly destroyed. Unfortunately I'd be amazed if the death toll stays at two.
