I might have almost destroyed a monitor with bad XFree86 timings on Slackware once or twice. Pulled the plug on that thing pretty fast.

I’m pretty sure I used one that was terminal based, likely using ncurses. Without searching, I can’t recall the name of it, though.
I used XMPP a bit among friends, more so when Google supported it, which was probably after ICQ/AIM/MSN wasn’t as popular? I don’t really talk to many people anymore, so whatever, heheh :)
It would be nice to see XMPP make some kind of “comeback” … or some sort of popularity boost like mastodon/lemmy/etc in recent times.
I drop by /. once or twice a year… definitely not the same as it used to be. Even remember when they added accounts, I ended up with a sub-400 uid even though it felt like I took a while to bother.
Kinda funny they stil have aim/icq fields on your user info page…
At this point - nothing. I’ve been less and less happy with that place lately, and this is just the final push. Hopefully I’ll find a lot of the same things either here, or somewhere else, or just not at all I guess.
Destiny 2 was one I wanted to mess around with a little recently, since the game itself was interesting enough to me. Got bored probably nowhere close to the end of the long and boring tutorial section. There are others that I can’t recall the name of, too. Obviously not memorable enough.
I think modern games in general hold your hand too much. Some small level of hand holding/tutorial is fine, but so many take it way too far. I’ve gotten bored of a lot of games before they actually started because of that.
Also chinesewatches, for great value watches and less snobbery that seems to be in watches on reddit :)
Assetto Corsa (assuming mods are included) and Factorio (again, with mods, but to a lesser degree).
