Well, it’s easy… just be born in the early 80s and grow up with home micros!

It was not my first (this would have been the Atari 2600), but the console that still has a very special place in my heart is the Atari Jaguar

Let them rip and tear each other apart until it’s done…

What about a trip into the smol-web? Perhaps a Gopher or Gemini Server? A IRC Bouncer? Or enter the fascinating world of telnet BBS systems!

Yeah, we should have ended our ties to the US and our infrastructural dependency back then.

Back then was one of the few moments I was proud about a german politician, when Schröder said “No”.

I - as my personal opinion - think he is more a case for the 2nd amendment…

I had an account on reddit, about five years old until I finally decided to leave it because i spend an ungodly amount of time there. Knowing myself and my habit to flake on self set goals I thought out the ultimate strategy to keep me from coming back: Over a couple of weeks I intentionally posted atrocious stuff on my main and my two alt-accounts to get me permabanned and burn every single bridge.

For now it has successfully stopped me from wasting time there any longer.

Well, Brave is -regardless of the companies decisions- still a damn good browser with many build in essentials (TOR, IPFS, Bittorrent…), so, while I PERSONALLY don’t use this anymore (currently I use an heavily patched suckless surf and Dillo) I don’t see much wrong in including this in a distribution especially catering to users switching from windows.

Well, for me it would be the setup i am now using since about 15 years:

WM: flwm Filemanager: ROX-Filer Background: feh

… and a ton of tools i accumulated over the yesrs

Is this the appropriate point to reference the suckless community? I mean, that’s THE point of the movement…

Well, you would be surprised how much really good software from back in the day (especially games) can run on quiet modern hardware. I have an old Thinkpad with a Core2Duo running FreeDOS that I mostly use for gaming and most of the DOS titles of the late 80s to mid 90 are running quiet well.
