Disclaimer: I'm no lojban expert myself, so this may be inaccurate. {mi prami la lojban .ui} is pretty straightforward: I love lojban, plus the {.ui} attitudinal, which indicates happiness (or as you said, ":)"). The period {

yep, the fact that they're making the source code available is a big deal. A lot of people were worried that SteamOS would just be another closed platform, and this puts that fear to rest pretty definitively.

Amazing that there are so many safeguards in place to prevent what happened to HCY 522, and yet the crew managed to miss/ignore them all. I'm sure there have been many thousands of instances where a safeguard prevented such an inc

4chan has been struggling to break even for years, mostly because no one wants to advertise there. So I think these "self-serve" ads are a great idea because they engage the community. After all, 4chan's biggest strength has
