I always liked what Charles Darwin wrote to J. D. Hooker in 1853:

After describing a set of forms, as distinct species, tearing up my M.S., & making them one species; tearing that up & making them separate, & then making them one again (which has happened to me) I have gnashed my teeth, cursed species, & asked what sin I had committed to be so punished [...]

It describes perfectly the feelings of a biologist while doing taxonomy work.

But people in the 90s were doing their work just fine, with that same UX paradigm. What's the difference now?

Just to be clear, I'm not saying that software's UI and UX doesn't need to evolve. But it bothers me that a perfectly usable UI gets criticized only because it's "old" and doesn't look "modern" (tf is a "modern UI", btw?).

So, the problem is that people doesn't have a working memory anymore, is that so?

What's wrong with the 90s UX? It lets you do your work without being intrusive or annoying, so what's wrong with it?

What you're looking for is called RSS. Install a RSS client, subscribe to some blogs or interesting sites like Aeon, Psyche, Nautilus, Longreads or Hacker News and add them to your client. Then you can scroll mindlessly through your own curated list of educational content.

Hoarders can get ~~lots~~ piles of money...

That is true, hackers, that is trueeeeeee...

Configure uBlock Origin in medium mode and set Firefox to delete cookies on quitting. Easy.

I really like Debian, but for some reason my not-new-laptop didn't liked it. Issues with suspend, the WiFi and the NVME drive made me to nuke it last Wednesday and in its place I installed Fedora, which seems to play better with the hardware. At least I don't have problems with it in my desktop.

At least you can listen to songs about the little shit to make the writing more bearable =D

Last September I installed Debian 12 in my laptop with an encrypted LVM. Then I tried to add a secondary SSD, also as an encrypted volume, by following some random tutorial I found (spare me, it was my first time fiddling around with an encrypted installation). The next thing I remember is that I was in an initramfs shell trying to fix the boot process 😅🤣. Since I was running low on patience (and it was like 3 AM) I simply decided to nuke the install and start again. Eventually I was able to configure the SSD correctly, but this event reminded me how easily is to brick your system if you're not careful enough. Fun times.

For me the one from Fedora 7 was the most beautiful of them all.
