When I visited my relatives, if they were on the TV we would watch them. edit: meant for dylan604 :)

Good to see. I never got their act, so I never really watched them, but my relatives thought they were great. Anyway, I did like and enjoy their performance in Babylon 5.

My big question about Ladybird, will it support BSD also ? >Ladybird has since grown into a cross-platform browser supporting Linux, macOS, and other Unix-like systems Cool, seems it will support BSD, hopefully that sticks with this ne

I also wonder if the Laptop Brand has to do with it. I would think the most targeted Laptops are Apples.

Crazy, the UK is signing up to what I believe is a scheme to transfer $ from taxpayers to the extreme wealthy in the US. That includes Trump. I personally believe Palantir provides no real benefit except to enrich the fascist rich in the U

Plus there is another consideration, probably more so in the US. If you are terminal, do you want all your savings to go to health care, or would you want to ensure you children or spouse get what you had saved over the years. To me, if ter

Even still, they are very hard to work with when compared to X11. Fvwm people are very smart and have been developing fvwm for longer than Linux have been around. From what I understand and have read, bring fvwm or creating a fvwm clone on

That is the thing with Wayland, it is much harder to create a window manager for Wayland. IIRC, fvwm decided not to create a Wayland version due to the difficulty. When Wayland replacing X, lots of cool window managers and mini application

In the Reagan years, money started to became more important than voters. Under Bush 2 and recent Supreme Court Decisions, bribes became legal. Per the Court they called them "tips". So Congress people spend more time fund raisin

Depends upon the software. I find valgrind easy on Linux and ktrace(1) on OpenBSD easy to use. I do not spend much time, plus I find testing my items on Linux, OpenBSD and NetBSD tends to find most issues without a lot of work and time.

Off to the USSR we go unless Congress gets brave. Sadly I told people who came here from the USSR where I use to work 40 years ago we were heading towards being the USSR, but a bit different. They said "no way", well here we are,

My cousin owned a dinner years ago. Finding a good short order cook was the hardest thing for her to do. He son eventually took over and developed that skill quite well.

Funny thing is, I showed KDE to a Windows user a few months ago. She loved it, she stuck with windows for now due to "change and all". But I am sure I could move her over to Linux once Windows does something real bad to her. She

Very nice, I got a chuckle from the one that said "How do you want your eggs". In the 80s where I worked, we had a large project to enhance the systems to our plant in Ireland. So for a couple of months a team from Ireland came h

I thought the death penalty was just for Murder 1, maybe 2 (or whatever it is called in Texas). If all the other things are true, none relate to murder, but shows the guy does belong in prison or a mental ward. So, the argument should be &q

Same here, back then I found a little known file manager called DM.COM. That was my # 1 goto in DOS for files. IMO, it is the best. You can do this to get information on how to download it: curl 'gopher://sdf.org/0&#x2

With a "normal" US Admin, I doubt this would be a concern. With this current regime, it could be risky. I could see Trump having a fit and if he realizes the EU needs US LNG, he could cut the supply or put a huge tax on it. But

I do not get this. I keep seeing this "move to ... and we will create paradise" things over and over again. So they will move pretty much to the middle of nowhere. How will people make money there ? Do the expect everyone to far
