  • Some friends at work started up a patient-gamer-style Pokémon book club. It’s been four months and we’re almost done Pokémon Black/White (which may sound impressive except that we started with Pokémon Black/White)
    My point is: there’s basically an unlimited number of good games that run on old hardware. Not that retro Nintendo hardware is cheap these days, but if you’ve got some lying around…

    In the Apocrypha, childhood Jesus got mad at another kid and turned him into a tree.
    Now, I’m not saying they’re the same tree. But I am saying I can do whatever I want in my own headcanon.

    2 And when Jesus saw what was done, he was wroth and said unto him: O evil, ungodly, and foolish one, what hurt did the pools and the waters do thee? behold, now also thou shalt be withered like a tree, and shalt not bear leaves, neither root, nor fruit.

  • I can’t argue with that.
    With the systemd example, they’ve put the bus in /run, but with different sessions and slices and environments (which could all be concurrent), they’ll spawn a new bus, so there’s no general way to tell it which bus you want.
    If you have a cron job (sorry, a systemd-timer job) set up to project your mailbox to your bathroom mirror on the hour, you’d want that isolated from your regular user bus.

    I love where Plasma is these days (check out the Tiles editor with Meta+T), but I do wish it was easier to pick only the desktop elements I want. It feels like it’s all-or-nothing.
