As long as I can still customize Gnome with some extensions for improved focus, it'll stay my DE of choice.

That's what happens when you rehire the local DVP during reunification.

Muckefuck wie WWII. Passt zur Zeit.

Decided to OpenSource instead of Software Patent (as my employer was urging me). Nowadays, that technique is used in every decent Image CDN + compression tool. Still proud to see it everywhere. Maybe it wouldn't have made it if had been patented.

Many other good ones have already been mentioned, so I won't repeat those titles. But "Suspiria" (2018 edition) definitely deserves a mention. The ending is just ... well, clearly somebody amongst the original writers had some issues regarding reproductive systems ... but the other 98% of the movie feature brilliant suspense & eiriness at all times. And Tilda Swinton is simply to-die-for in it. ;)

It Follows is definitely one of the best horror movies regarding suspense and general feeling of ... gloom?! Eireness?! Futility?! Darkness?! Whatever it is, I love it!

And the (potentially) underlying message is powerful.

A Knippix Kombi-Zange. Well played! Good tools are worth every cent.

(FYI: this is divorcées attempting to date)

Went on my 1st date after divorce. Sat down together at a café. After greeting each other, she immediately asks "So when do you intend to move to my town?". I reply by saying "Whoa! Take it slow. Let's get to know each other first!" and feeling that she can't be serious about her question.

She, however, explodes in my face that she has a life and a kid in that other town and no time to waste. I managed to reply that I have a life and kids in this current town we're in, too, before she jumps up and storms away cursing.

Not the most conducive first post-marital dating experience.

Definitely "Abzû" and "Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice". One is a beautiful piece of art that touches me every time I replay it and the other finally gave me a wonderful example to show to friends & family of how noisy it is in my head sometimes.

+1 on this. Hiker+Trail-Runner here. So I sometimes encounter cows on high mountain passes where taking a detour can mean hours of delay. But after getting kicked like that once, I am very careful around herds, esp. when they have young ones / horns (as they often do grassing on mountains) / bulls in the mix.

Now I'm left wondering what the children of a water system look like.
