@mike I stand by what I said earlier about you setting up an awesome instance.
-
@mike good choice!
... but if a GS'er likes it, it means you'll probably get your instance blocked.
-
@mike 2048, at the least. 1024 is not enough for Stallman's interjection, which I consider a minim benchmark for quips (I mean "toots") in tech land.

@mike minimum 5000.

@hardbass2k8 so when injured, eschew painkillers and choose sex for procreation. got it!

like most good tools, the best X11 window manager is the one you forget is even there. cwm is probably the first one I've encountered that practically disappears into your workflow ...
I won't claim cwm is perfect for everyone (because it isn't), but more wm developers should learn from it.

accessibility seems to be the premise for most arguments about "opportunity" and "levelling the playing field," today. but this line of reasoning ignores the very real aspects of people's natures and the culture common to most (if not all) societies genuinely averse to learning unless there's a tangible benefit to be had (eg, gainful employment). the pale character of opportunism goes actually very far in cancelling out whatever benefits are to be had from having access to the modern libraries of Alexandria ... most will simply take it for granted.

@hector that's great!!

but I was always a "special" child, and so that became The Road Not Taken -- whether due to deficiency or temperament, I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader ... https://gnusocial.de/attachment/4322903

getting handed a properly programmable pocket computer when you were six yo would probably enabled one of those child prodigies you occasionally read about. you know, the ones who end up at Oxford or Princeton at age fourteen. https://gnusocial.de/attachment/4265996

literally the only fault of my Casio CA-53 calculator watch is that uses algebraic instead of RPN entry. I'm aware this is a tall order, though.
