    I was excited about the website up until I clicked into my first color and read the page. Terrible slop writing. Makes me question the author's judgement in general.

    What a lovely-looking OS! Also great to hear that the project isn't aiming for infinite changes! Will be digging out some old hardware to test it out very soon, this is exciting!

    Did read this years ago and read it today again. Just so happy that there are people producing such quality work. Even if I personally don't know much about any of it, I still find…

    Is anything in late stage capitalism good for the world? Any and all benefits are accidental and temporary.

    Any and all discussions about unions on HN sadly just shows how the supposedly smart people can be extremely misinformed and propagandized. Not even really worth engaging in the di…

    I'm no big Sony supporter or even a fan of the PS5 controllers, but changing the sticks is not that scary. I find reassembling the whole thing cleanly harder than swapping out a st…
