What is so special about NeXTSTEP and WindowMaker? I see it often brought up and I actually used WindowMaker briefly at some point in the past, but I don't "get it". Could someone explain?

You probably mean uracil, not udenine (which doesn't exist AFAIK).

Why are you saying this with such an absolute certainty without providing a convincing argument?

Why is using untraceable software something that should be considered as "going out of your way", in your opinion? I think it's just because it's relatively uncommon today. But if all software was close to the untraceabl

I've heard it said previously that manim is hard to use if you're not 3b1b. Is this (still) true? How hard was the manim side of things to implement, subjectively speaking?

This was my thought as well. I feel like there should be a mode for this.

It's also worth noting that verification is much easier these days given that cross-signing has been implemented. Before you had to verify each pair of (sender, recipient) devices. This meant N*M verifications. Now you only need to ver

That just seems like an even greater nightmare to me. Soon you would have to learn to read and understand a custom program in a Turing-complete language for each and every installation. The proper solution is a DSL, just a better DSl. Or pe
