ace_garp, 12 days ago to upliftingnews in Voyager 1 returning science data again Infinitely empty AFAIK. Interstellar space is similar to atoms and the electron cloud, some tiny amount of matter and a whole heap of SFA. (Someone get at me with the actual numbers, but I’m leaning toward space being more sparse by percentage than an atom.) The main solar system objects were accounted for and closely avoided, now it’s a very roomy area to float through alone.

ace_garp, 16 days ago to linux in Nostalgic Distros? Yeah, Knoppix was kind of a ‘Tucows vibe’ distro. Pretty approachable. Zen Linux was another short-lived 2005 liveDistro, which had a nice feel and Art. Also, installing all trisquel.info versions side-by-side and doing a 17 year fast-forward would be cool.

ace_garp, 1 month ago to opensource in Winamp has announced that it is opening up its source code to enable collaborative development of its legendary player for Windows. Update: Found 2 new players today. Clementine (the player that Strawberry is forked from), it’s awesome. Thanks for the info to find this player. Also cmus, which is a console music-player, and basically looks like vim for audio files.

Install a local wikipedia instance (or simple-wikipedia) for reference, and give them thumb drives/DVDs for media. For the fully libre start to life, install Trisquel GNU/Linux and use the DebJr package list to install required software.
