25-12-06 - stuff i might want to remember ------------------

the xerox alto (developed at xerox parc, & released 1973) is 
one of the first workstations to include a gui. in exchange 
for stock options in apple, xerox demonstrated their 
technology to apple engineers, which apple later used to 
create the lisa and macintosh systems.
-------
in 2021, enrico weigel posted on the linux kernel discussion 
list that covid vaccinations are a "human experiment that 
basically creates a new humanoid race", to which linus 
torvalds (rightfully) told him to stfu

enrico later went on to create a "DEI-free" fork of the 
x.org server (xlibre). 

25-12-04 - quit idling your car! ---------------------------

a lot of people have been idling their vehicles lately. the 
air smells really bad about it. i wish this wouldn't happen 
so often.

5 seconds of idling takes more feul than turning your car 
off and on again. you waste a lot of resources by idling 
your car for minutes at a time.

25-12-04 - playing with usenet -----------------------------

sometimes i return to nntp clients. i rarely post but i like 
to lurk :3
i might make an account on eternal-september.org and browse 
text-only newsgroups from there, but mostly i'm on 
'news.tilde.club'

i don't know how to access sdf's nntp server yet? tin gives 
me a 'connection refused' message.

25-12-03 - Medley Interlisp --------------------------------

i've been playing around a little bit with the medley 
interlisp project, a system originally for 80's computers 
like the Xerox 1186 and other lisp machines, but recently 
ported to linux and other operating systems.
