If a native HDBF VM exists and GCC is ported to it, then it's all over.

... I'm afraid to write hello-world in it.

@nev 1. IDK. It feels like half the Web decided using CMSs reinventing the HTML wheel in JavaScript was only slightly less bad than reinventing it in Flash, thus A-OK and the way to go.

2. You're right, but without choosing to trust that their JS won't do funny things to my browser, I have no way of knowing whether or how much they detract from the story instead of help it.

Note: I disable JavaScript just about everywhere, and since Medium uses JS instead of HTML to embed images, that means I haven't seen any in the story.

I don't know if I need a version of gcc so old, but I'm wearing out.

I got past this error, at least.
$ su -
# pkg install gcc46
# exit
$ export IMAKECPP=/usr/local/bin/cpp46
$ xmkmf

@shekkiesqueaks I'm only aware of one, a personal one-user instance, being shut down.

I actually like the program xcal, but not only is it not in FreeBSD ports, the only place I can find a copy of the source is in Debian's source pools.

And the source won't build because clang doesn't translate ancient imake rules/macros right: X11.rules exists, but it's trying to include ' X11 .rules' (spurious spaces).

@Vann@glitch.social I didn't even know the feature existed until you mentioned it.

I for one would rather have real interactive people than one-way token celebrity endorsements in my social network.

I just noticed that what they're wearing during the comparison dances are...

...sorting hats.

YouTube is recommending folk dancers illustrating merge sort and bubble sort, too.
