You should toot more.

@killyourfm Good day.

While you did great work at Thunderbird, no doubt. I for one am glad to see you back doing the fun stuff like gaming, benchmarking, engaging.

Just wanted to let you know that *this* 'Jason' was missed a bit. Glad you're back, as it were. :)

Today I was reminded of the time I was in a pub four years ago and got invited to join some other drinkers.

The man opposite me said, "Your eyes are very green; I bet they were better when you were young before you got old and they went milky."

"Ok"

Ain't the world a weird place? :D

My 17 year old son calls any kind of Internet connectivity “WiFi”.

I have failed as a parent.

@killyourfm Good question. Have you tried Wekan? I used it for a while, worth a look.

Installed #Ubuntu 12.04 on this ThinkPad a while back, then upgraded it to 14.04. I wonder if it can go all the way through 16.04, 18.04, 20.04, 22.04 and successfully end up on 24.04...

@gamingonlinux You need to write some click-bait, my man.

You can have these for free..

Number 11 is the best!

@RTheren I think they ran out of money (and were being sued by patent trolls), but the code is open. I don't know if progress has been made.

@clacke @AngryAnt @buonhobo If people aren't aware of Guix by now, that seems like a Guix problem :)

As I understand it some people in the #nixos community disagree with the way the project is run. So as is common in open source, someone has started a fork. 🤷

Golly, it's coming up on six years since "What are beans?"

A very short thread. 🧵

This is a complex problem and a question that may have no helpful answer.
I'm putting it out there to see if people have ideas. 🤔

Note: I am deliberately *not* identifying anyone specific in this thread. I'd appreciate it if everyone else did the same.

This thread aims to find solutions, not point fingers or speak negatively of individuals or groups.

[Blog] Hey! Remember a month ago I mentioned there was a scam BitCoin wallet in the Snap Store. There's another one. This time I took it apart to see how it works.

Edit: It's worse - they published ten scam apps under different wallet brand names. :(

These are trivially easy to spot and identify as scam apps.

And more...
