Did you try to hack a Gibson from your home?

I lost my home to an accident. An rm -rf accident… :(

Whoa, that’s early KDE? They really went all in on looking like contemporary Windows.

I’ve used Linux since the mid 00’s and, well, I’ve seen some shit. But nowadays? It’s the best desktop OS I’ve used. I recently had to start using a Mac for work and realized just how far DE’s like Gnome and KDE have gotten. It feels like I have to fight MacOS every single day to get it to do the absolute basics, the things that Gnome and KDE does out of the box. And the most ridiculous thing is that the app ecosystem for MacOS is so heavily focused on monetization that if you purchase enough apps to customize the MacOS DE to an acceptable level, you’d likely have spent enough money to buy another laptop. Madness.

TL;DR: Turns out that this year is actually the year of Linux on the desktop!

They still haven’t figured out string handling?

JSP used to be the shit back in the day. Imagine server-side rendered html through Java. Nowadays it’s properly regarded as shit, fortunately.
