I do exactly this, and use Keepass2Android on my phone and have nextcloud-KeeWeb installed.

Tangentally related - For anyone looking to take over a project, KeeWeb is looking for a new maintainer!

I speak a little bit of German, but no, the guy who created the series is a native English speaker with Afrikaans as his second language.

It absolutely gets used in English speaking companies. I’ve got one in my work calendar as a reoccurring event.

What’s so insane about it? Web browsers are an evolution of the old gopher protocol. All this stuff has roots in text consoles.

Yes, the crime of giving them a stable OS that once it is set up keeps working reliably for years to come.

My last year of uni I was broke. The previous year the parking passes had red letters, that year purple. That was the only difference. The colour. I traced over all the letters of my previous parking pass with a blue sharpie and parked for free all year.

Come to Germany for a visit.

Why?

Sounds like they’ve stayed much the same.

There was a time when I enjoyed that kind of effort. Now I have a job in I.T. and a toddler that I want to spend my free time with. When I use my personal/private computer, I just want my software to work and I want to be able to keep it patched with minimal effort.

In a way I’m glad Slackware has kept to the original ideals. I enjoyed using it from the 3 series through 7 at least. I remember people getting their knickers in a twist when he jumped version numbers. In those days I had a custom kernel that I wove patches into. Big O scheduler, usb support, agpart support, some other stuff I can’t remember. I remember wanting low latency because MP3s skipped otherwise.

It was fun, but back then hacking on Linux kernel patches and building things from source was my hobby. I remember loading Linux into a powermac 4400 because I could, and I used it as my always-on IRC machine.

Ahhh Slackware.

Serious question - does Slackware offer any special features that make it more attractive?

I stopped using Slackware back when Corel Linux released, and when CL died I switched to Debian and never looked back.

I don’t understand. Are you saying you’re a racist, abusive, narcissistic fuckhead? Or that you’re fat?

Yep, probably because it’s not funny or clever. My guess is that you look for funny and/or clever in your jokes.

The first board mount (actually through-board case mount) I recall seeing were HP socket 478. That horror-show of a socket also saw many plastic retention clip implementations that had a tendency to get brittle and crack. Socket 423 (which came before) had the same plastic junk mounts.
