another licensed fork of Windows NT 3.51 (or more specifically, a fork of a fork), Insignia Ntrigue, has hit the old tech space, and it's effectively Citrix WinFrame but the entire OS is acting as an X11 client

talk about a cursed RDP nightmare combo...

edit: typo'd, meant to say it acts as an X11 client and not a server

think my resilience to VR motion sickness shot up through the roof in a matter of a week, went from being only able to withstand an hour on day one of owning a Frame to just... feeling completely indifferent no matter what space you're in (be it IRL or in VR)

In light of some people blindly promoting this "Stop Killing the Internet" nonsense:

Please read the goddamn petition text before throwing yourself into a list of idiots who blindly signed their support in favor of intrusive age verification checks using flawed/non-existent technologies and the normalization of ID verification simply because they read the title only and not their actual contents.

It's like saying you found a golden goose egg, showing it off to somebody, and it so happens they and the people around you look disgusted seeing you hold a pile of shit.

Or, I don't know, recommending a book to somebody based on its cover without ever having read it, and it so happens to be a pile of bullshit.

The Maltese language, better known as "Copyright Infringement: The Literary Hodgepodge".

Wanna drag in a superset of Semitic languages into something and Romanize everything in the process? Sure, we've already got a language for that.

Ever thought of stealing entire words from completely unrelated languages? Yeah, I'm down for lifting entire words off of Italian, English, Arabic and Spanish. Let's all have fun driving our karozzas and typing away entire spreadsheets on our kompjuters while we doomscroll into the deepest toxic-fueled pits of the Internet on our mowbajls. I could afford to eat a tuffieħa as well.

Oh, what's that? You want to reinvent the entire literary wheel? Sfortunatament, il-biża tiegħek ġiet ikkonfermat issa. Let's just steal the entire English alphabet and alter it slightly to drop what are otherwise some useful characters and replace them with less sensible options, all while mashing four goddamn languages together.

Mhux sabiħ biex tara l-istat tal-lingwa Maltija u kif jidher daqstant kemm hu ridikkoluża? Honestly, a non-speaker could probably barely make out any of what I'm saying here.
