There's a couple instances that have their heads so far up their own asses that they've become their own Adam's Apple

That’s a phrase I never knew I needed!

Yes, that tends to happen when you remove half the sugar… who’d have thunk it?

DOS -> Windows (3.1 through to XP) -> Slackware -> Red Hat -> Fedora -> OpenSUSE -> Ubuntu -> Mint -> Ubuntu -> Arch

It’s been quite the journey.

Exactly, as lest when your distro starts doing things you don’t like, another can easily take its place in your set up.

I have a lifetime licence for both Pro and Ultra features of Apollo. A lifetime that, sadly, looks to be coming to an end this month. Christian Selig was well aware that some users didn't like the idea of subscriptions and accommodated them as well.

My work machine is macOS as the company won't let us use Linux. My home machine is Arch Linux (obligatory "BTW") which I migrated to after Ubuntu dropped Unity and started forcing Snaps on everyone.

However, a nice shameless plug for my Terminal file manager: DF-SHOW which is designed to work on all Unix like systems.

As Lemmings was one of my favourite games growing up, that's also gets my vote.

I replaced mine with "sourcing map 2.5mm Ceramic Bearing Balls, ZrO2 Zirconium Oxide Ball G5 Precision". The difference is night and day.

I don't have much experience with other trackballs. I had a thumb control one from Logitech, which needed cleaning about as often. A small price to pay for pointing perfection, though.

And it's your run of the mill Elecom Huge. Modded with ceramic bearings.

Not sure yet, a lot of subs haven't set up on Lemmy yet. Hoping that'll change after the blackout next week.
