I once bought a SNES game that couldn't be found at local stores (final fantasy 2) by 1/ finding a guy on a message board with the cartridge, 2/ mailing that person a check, and 3/ waiting (probably weeks?) to receive the cartridge in the mail. The old Internet. I still have that game btw.

No. Mercurial.
Many things which are hard to believe are nevertheless true.

If you click on the Directors top 100, it's number one! (deservedly so)

Which principles would you like the companies that you are invested in to maximize ahead of stockholder value?

If you think 200TWh is too much to operate the Bitcoin network, is there a smaller number you would find reasonable?

What does it tell you?
I also recently wrote some software to make the clipboard work the way I wanted.

Distributed clipboard, mesh networking, xorg and Wayland integration. tmux and vim would also make sense, as OP has done, though I haven't gotten there yet.

Re:Are We Wayland Yet? on Thursday July 07, 2022 @07:06PM (#32020806)
Have been using Wayland as my daily driver for about a year now, on my main PC, which I use for WFH. Big improvement for me.
