Flashing back to Red Planet.

Somebody call Tom Selleck!

Runaway as well, but without the mall.

They have a series on Gates too.

The answer to OPs question is that these people they admired were just as bad, just better at PR. Unless you think that social media has had some kind of positive effect in outing these newer bastards. Being young and naive may also have been a factor (which I can personally attest to since I was a fan of MS back in the 90s before I learned about them).

Now I’m gonna go work on √(🐈/(yourage^2 *mass))

It’s not bad, but personally I prefer to keep my task bar separate and horizontal, which I don’t think would work with this. Plus my ultra-wide would make it more work to reach than the top and bottom.

I’d post my desktop but it’s been getting so buggy lately. Task bar flickering, widgets getting squished. But I can’t even look into those yet because I’m trying to figure out why my desktop sessions aren’t being saved or restored anymore. Is this just life using Tumbleweed?

First distro I got to work was LibraNet. Easy to set up and use, ran by a father-son team. Died when the father passed away. 😥
