@aralqprf thanks for posting that link. Possible, certainly plausible but debated. I wish the Smithsonian had actually included or linked to the dissenting views. @RustyBertrand

I am once again considering to write my own window manager

...unless the setup I am thinking of is already possible, let me construct this in your head:

On the top of the screen, there is narrow status bar, which is split into two parts. On the right side of the bar, you have your clock, your battery, your signal strength and so on.

On the left side, there is a clickable tab for every window you have opened. It's like browser tabs: Every window always uses the entire space below the status bar.

On the far left, there could be an icon which opens a searchable list of applications, kind of like but vertical. Everything supports mouse input as you would expect.

Does that exist? Should I make it? It would be awesome for smaller screens, like phones.

Edit: I should add that I'm planning to run it on a Nokia N900 with a single 600 MHz CPU core, 256 MB RAM and a resolution of 800×480 pixels. Existing full desktop environments like Xfce4, LXDE, and so on are way to heavy to run.

Unless you wanna write your own window manager (all the power to you!) almost any barebones window manager can pretty much be customised to meet your needs with their scripting APIs.

Oh damn, maybe you might wanna write your own for such a specific use case.

You can do this with XMonad and XMobar.

Moon with colorful aura [OC]

Is there a name for when a nearly full moon shines through the clouds at night and produces a rainbow-like aura? A moonbow perhaps?

Edit: I looked it up and I think this phenomenon is actually a lunar corona (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_%28optical_phenomenon%29?wprov=sfla1).

I think 22deg lunar halo, though it is diffused into a rainbow

*definitely a lunar carona vv

CrimeDad ,

It might be a lunar corona.

@Stamets I don't understand the joke

Ilovethebomb ,

There isn’t any, they’re just being assholes to someone who lashed out after having his family insulted.

Because insulting someone’s spouse to their face is fine, but violence is a no-no.

Kecessa ,

The “whore” part was unnecessary, but the joke is that Chris Rock joked her during the Oscar, Will went on stage and slapped him.

makes a kart racing game called "" (Mickeyo Kart)

It's not great, but my favorite part is how it's all these cartoons like Mickey and Donald Duck and then Jack Sparrow's there like "Wait, I'm in this too!?"

I'm new here so I hope I linked to the group right lol.
Anyone play State of Decay 2? Been playing for a while and the game has been broke for quite a while. So they fix some old broke, add new features, break some more stuff, than we back to square 1 again with new and old problems. Curious if the game should just RIP?

Young male college students + booze + sex = murder

Students made Oxford the murder capital of late medieval England, research suggests

https://phys.org/news/2023-09-students-oxford-capital-late-medieval.html

> A project mapping medieval England's known murder cases has now added Oxford and York to its street plan of London's 14th century slayings, and found that Oxford's student population was by far the most lethally violent of all social or professional groups in any of the three cities.
