Wow, hadn’t thought of that thing in ages. Now all we need is for B1FF to bring back ASCII sword signatures.

The first hard drive I used was a whooping 5megs and the CP/M machine couldn’t handle it so it was partitioned as a million floppies.

I thought of Latin, but then some people actually speak it, so they’d have an unfair advantage.

The localisation of office software functions is atrocious in all languages. They should have defaulted to Volapuk, so that at least we could all suffer together.

It’s exactly like that. Except without the bachelor. Or the party.

Isn’t Fortran more or less Basic with Maths?

And it’s not self-cleaning, very inconvenient.

Now, it’s quite simple to defend yourself against a man armed with a banana. First of all you force him to drop the banana; then, second, you eat the banana, thus disarming him. You have now rendered him 'elpless.

I think Windows is simply an easier and more straightforward system.

For example, list the processes on a windows system. Nobody has the faintest idea what half of them are. Do the same on Linux and there’s maybe 10 you’ll have to look up. Windows is a mess of interconnected and piled upon crud. Unix may not be perfect but at least it makes sense.

Why would anyone do that?

And of course it’s using units from Middle Earth instead or metric.

Hell, remember dot-matrix printer terminals?

The little people inside the LCD monitor can absolutely turn the electricity into numbers. I’ve seen them do it.

or just load the previous root filesystem snapshot. Btrfs works fine.

Preposterous, my lucky socks never failed me.

Cool, I won’t have to update my date formats.

I’d say either an obscure character from Friends, or Jackie Chan’s sister?

3.11? Which couldn’t even network properly?

Right click widget, select options, click on show date, or day or whatever, click apply, done.

I don’t know what bizarre stuff Gnome runs but it obviously hasn’t gotten better.

That’s not a linux question. That’s related to whatever desktop environment is running and what clock or calendar widget it can display.
