@scottmichaud@mastodon.gamedev.place @wakame@tech.lgbt @cwebber@social.coop We do have reliable fusion energy... unfortunately we have it in the form of a totally unshielded reactor without any safety controls...

@brauner This may seem very funny as a joke, but it is actually very stupid. Next thing you know, there will be a legal argument "See, it is totally possible to implement this", and you're stuck with it.

@d6 I still use xv. It is perfect for having a background on my X display which scales and tiles to fill the screen, and changes every 5 minutes.

@timonus@mastodon.social @wndxlori@ruby.social @deeje@mastodon.social There already was something called X, and even its logo is similar: https://x.org so xitter just will have to have another name.

@HighlandLawyer I remember seeing (I think it was in the 90s) a sign in an Edinburgh supermarket: New! Metric milk! @ajcain @cstross @overeducatedredneck @tilton @a_cubed

@rbanffy I suspect that "DIR" is some kind of EXEC on your CMS system. LISTFILE can be abbreviated to LIST, and I think even as far down as just L.

@rbanffy LISTFILE is probably a more CMSish way to list your files.

@hanno @TimPhSchaefers Maybe it is time to make domain pirating illegal... It's not like they are not already among the scum of the internet.
