Not at all wrong. I hate to use this word because it denigrates our wonderful lady friends (both bio and of choice), but cops are pussies. Like the ultimate ones. "look at me! I'm a badass cop gonna violate your rights! Back the Blue!" Let's see what my lawyer has to say about your "badassery". I thought so, bitch. Here's a coupon code for Dunkin. Go away.

Yes and no. It depends on what your aim is. I LOVE Nix and it runs like a beast on my ZBook. But I'm after reproducible environments I can just blast around on all over the place without a heavy imagining solution. Works great for that.

Does it take some time to setup as a daily driver? Yes. But no more than Arch. But the thing with Nix is if you already have a robust config, it takes less time than Arch to go from zero to stomping out code.

Ubuntu is a great generic distro. But I find Nix gives me oomph. As with everything in this ecosphere...use what works for YOU! 😁

Yup. We ported netsurf to IRIX a while ago which is a nice little browser that does SSL.

AHAHA. Gotta have the digital blasphemy background for the late 90s vibe!

It's pretty skippy for a 20 year old machine. It's an octane 2 with a 400 Mhz processor.

WAIS is long gone. There are no more servers running having been ran primarily by the now defunct Thinking Machines (they made those big beautiful super computers with all the red lights like in Jurassic Park). There is an open implementation called OpenWAIS, but I can't remember if it includes a WAIS server.

That's going to take some digging. If you search around on Gopher it's out there.

IDK. Consider PC Principal for a second. He's a Marxist bro who idealizes every left-wing stereotype, who runs an educational instutition forcing politically correct language on children. You tell me what the intentions are, since you are so "woke". Political Correctness is cultural denialism and self-imposed censorship, instead of productive dialog concerning social issues. Since you like South Park, here...there are two people in this picture and they are exactly the same.

Precisely. Someone understands cultural context of words.

If you call a cop a "coward", it means nothing. Because coward is a culturally dead word in an archaic sense. But if you call them a "pussy" then the meaning and cultural power behind the word changes. Medieval knights can be cowards. But cops are pussies.

Also I'm less likely to take political correctness lessons from a dude whose handle is TIMMAY...the retarded kid from South Park. Also a culturally dense word.

Uhh, do you think the show's creators meant to show him as "physically disabled" or retarded? What was the cultural intent on that? Again, don't play the culture war games with people who have zero cultural understanding. PC Principle is also a pussy. There ya go. Have fun in microagression and cancel culture land or whatever Marxists are calling it these days while feeling good for stomping on free speech while claiming to be about "free speech"
