do-release-upgrade fails because it wants to nuke every single package on the system because they require libc6 >= 2.29 whereas latest libc6 for 18.04 is 2.27 which sounds exactly like canonical
tried manually installing libc6 2.31 and now the cunt's fucked, thank fuck for the oversight to make a full disk backup
hm can't upgrade unless i remove python2 and removing that removes nodejs. fun dependency hell
whatever i have a full disk backup

@david_chisnall I don't currently have a 5.25" drive but that could change 🤔 i'm much more interested in the 3.5" ones though
i'm located in Devon and have a fair few bits of hoarding... i mean collection, the floppies could certainly be gone to a good home :)
@david_chisnall if this is a serious offer, and you are in, or can ship to, the UK, let me know 👀

15 years ago, I worked on a game that ran at 60Hz on a 333Mhz cpu on the PSP. It animated skinned transforms for a dozen rigs, transformed maybe 20k triangles and rasterized them, decoded and mixed music, and a dozen other things, all in 16ms. I think about that a lot when things are slow on my 100x faster computer.
@mavica_again this is, legitimately, a mouse cursor. it's included with the CD-ROM versions of Moraff's Mahjongg games.
it is the only time i've ever felt like my own mouse is getting in the way of playing the game and it is also the greatest thing ever
