@onehappyfellow This bit also says a lot about the demographics of the survey.

@sullyj3 @onehappyfellow There is a lot of inertia in software development. C was invented in the 70s and we still use it a lot.

@NearestCommit No UWP, no Cortana, no Recall, no web search in the start menu. Just a gorgeous UI and apps that work.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@nocontextmemes It doesn't need a gameplay update at all.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@NostalgiaFolder There's something special about old shovelware like 101 Games for Windows XP.

@DocksEcky BE kind of did it with affinities. Didn't Civ III do this as well?

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@cosmicjester A lot of the arguments for UBI were pinned on there being low inflation, which is bad for the economy. For the past few years, we've had very high inflation. It basically killed all appetite for that.

@Apogee_Ent 4 TB HDD, I don't need to uninstall a good game.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@satvikrsharma Some sort of OKR system. During the election campaign, parties should commit to a set of OKRs for the voters to judge them by at the next election.

More of a voter accountability system than an institutional check.

@CovalianKing @MartyM1981 @CivGame Indeed. It was only with the Philhellenes that we started thinking of ourselves as "Greek" again but my family, being Anatolian was still called "Roman" until the 20s.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@CovalianKing @MartyM1981 @CivGame You can very easily make the argument that the Byzantines are culturally Greek. You could even make the argument that the Romans were cultural successors to the Greek city states, what with all the statues and gods and all.

@JoshHousden > Increase vote share

Incredible

@CivGame Are there any plans for Greek leaders like Alexander and Plato? I'd love a "Plato's Republic" unique ability.

@KDirectorate @nixcraft Depends how locked-down their laptops are. There's no way most enterprise companies would allow people to install their own OS on company laptops.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@nixcraft It's when these come to the brick and mortar shops that Linux could go mainstream.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@Pirat_Nation Heretic II and Jurassic Park: Dinosaur Battles. They just don't run right on modern systems.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@nixcraft This year. Internet is unusable because the Realtek drivers for my motherboard wifi are horribly out of date.

[James Skibinski @SkibinskiJames]

@Triceratops235 @dannycantalk @alancornett We have treaties against settling Antarctica. We have no such treaties about other planets.

@doom_txt I left ZDoom 8 years ago. Now it seems time to leave GZDoom.
