It would help if we knew even just a smidgin of what these titles are.

I enjoy the D&D alignment chart.

My daughter just started school. She's pretty stoked about it, and so are we.

Time heals all wounds. Make sure you don't keep reopening them.

Hashtags are your friend. It also helps if you have some active posters for the tag. I get good content from following #sciencefiction #coffee and #python.

This is the type of movement I've been looking forward to. I still visit Reddit but not for Reddit's sake. I go for the high quality subs with tight moderation and good content that are still on Reddit. Once they move out, there's no reason to stay on.

Anecdotally, I am writing this comment from a 7-year-old Chromebook. Owing to software updates, it's not as snappy as it used to be (therein lies the irony), but it's still usable up to its Linux container. The battery is dead but I don't want to get rid of it because the screen is still nice and bright and the hardware build is otherwise fine.

I just wish, though, I could boot proper Linux off of it and I could upgrade memory and storage.

In this day and age they would be TikTok stars.

Hello, fellow ex-IBMer.

Clumsy now. Give it a few years. Or months.

Thank you. I'll look it up.

Five years is too generous, I think. At the end of the day, Reddit is just a forum and forums aren't profitable. Unlike the time of the Digg migration, the technology and platform have been commoditized.

For several years I was using TTRSS, but this year I moved to a Miniflux instance that I host at home. I couple it with an instance of Wallabag for saving articles for later reading. I like the experience of the Miniflux PWA app better than TTRSS.

I was thinking more of Pinky and The Brain.

And those papers get used as training data for next iteration of AI. Reinforcement learning!

I played so much X-Com, Civ 2, and Final Fantasy Tactics back in the day.

Any of the 90s horror anthology shows. Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Friday the 13th: The Series heck even X-Files and Buffy. I don't think we've had a decent horror anthology show in recent years. Black Mirror is less horror than just plain meanness sometimes.

The first Don Quixote book was so popular it spawned a lot of fake sequels. Cervantes killed off Don Quixote in the second book to preclude any more copycats. That's what I remember anyhow from the preface of a paperback edition from way back.

Nextcloud has chat capabilities. Perhaps it might be overkill for chat alone but presumably you also want some collaboration with documents.

Speaking from experience from the last five years, it's been pretty good for me.

The key idea from the article is --

...Companies making more than $5 million annually by using Post-Open software in a paid-for product would be required to pay 1 percent of their revenue back to this administrative organization, which would distribute the funds to the maintainers of the participating open source project(s). That would cover all Post-Open software used by the organization.

Like tears...in the rain...

Start using it more frequently and favor it over GUI apps. For instance, use cd and ls over the file manager. Launch applications I using the command line. Figure out ways to do in the CLI what you used to do using GUI. Over time you should get more comfortable with the environment.

By any chance is this from Andrew Tanenbaum?

Budibase.

My point being that they deem this serious enough to release publicly themselves instead of an internal memory, and that this is about an active threat actor rather than a mere vulnerability.

Just wanted to say thank you for setting up and running these services. The Internet is exciting again. More power to you and the team!

You da MVP! Thanks for sharing your experience.

It only matters if it's to the death.

Minecraft has been suggested here but there's also Minete St, free/open source version. The experience isn't exactly the same but the basics are there. Works with PC and Android. You can also run one of the computers as a host and you can do multiplayer. Absolutely no microtransactions.
