Swedish public service TV still supports teletext and I use it daily to catch up on the day's headlines, via the antenna on the roof.

Back in the 70's I bought a DIY kit to make a home terminal connected to a 300 baud acoustic modem for school. It used a teletext chip and simply hooked up to my TV. So cool.

I found it amusing to see Quiche Lorraine described as breakfast food. I've also seen Swedish pancakes described as such in other threads. They're definitely not served for breakfast over here.

K-9 has been worked on until they decided to call it Thunderbird. It's the same product and you'll feel right at home.

I was also very disappointed in AOC's speech. I think we've lost her as a voice for the oppressed masses.

I've seen people say that Biden is making it harder for Harris to win, because he is so stubborn about funding the genocide. That may be true, but only if Harris steps up and says that she would have handled it differently.

Ilhan Omar for president!

What a surprise!

@thanius

Right. I was so entrenched in Solaris, working at Sun, that I didn't get into Linux until later. We used CDE until about that time, when we started switching over to GNOME.

CDE (based on Motif) was a step down from OpenWindows, but GNOME eventually got to be pretty good. I've never tried KDE.

@thanius

Does it even have a window system?

@thanius

Oh, version 6 has Gnome. Cool.

@thanius

Is that a Red Hat I see before me?
