Comic Sans was inspired by Microsoft Bob, but was never a part of it (sadly)

I'm glad that works for you! I don't think there's any non-free modules enabled in Fedora's Gnome either.

I think you're thinking of Ubuntu's "lenses" and stuff that used to talk to Amazon and such. That was never a Gnome thing but an Ubuntu thing!

There's being a nerd, and there's reverse engineering Microsoft Bob so you can become the platform's first/only third party app developer. (Yes, this nerd is my partner. Yes, this talk will be amazing)

Thank you! I will check, that's a great lead.

Vergeet niet te #stemmen er zijn altijd 150 zetels te verdelen. Als jij thuisblijft krijg je evengoed een regering. Maar dan mogelijk met een waardeloze kwast aan het hoofd.

Stemmen heeft zin, is belangrijk, en het kost je 30 min.

De PVV en JA21 zijn niet onontkoombaar.

Protip! If you have a DVD rom drive that will read pressed DVDs but not burnt ones, you can adjust some pot meters and then it won't read pressed DVDs anymore either!

Follow me for more pro tips.

This Godot Con presentation by @tmm.cx about using the free open source Godot game engine to make non game applications that will run anywhere was fantastic and thought provoking

Eric Drexler announces a new open source tool to design and simulate advanced nanotechnology. Built on the Godot engine!

It helps users explore nanoscale systems through physics based simulations.

youtu.be/ywl5ot_rdgc another complete banger of a discussion, about how Godot is being used in applications, not just games, and taking it to the next level. @tmm.cx presents in their hilarious style.

Currently listening to HP van Braam's (@tmm.cx ) talk on developing non-game applications with Godot. He's been working on a nanotechnology design program. Fascinating subject.

It's been a pleasure watching @tmm.cx, Eric Drexler & Jonathan Ackley use the Godot Engine to build this platform. Designing nanomachines? With a tool built using open source video game technologies? So we can explore new frontiers of tiny science? Brilliant.

I want to become famous in the UK for no reason other than that I want to be on taskmaster.

What are the British into these days?

I'm sure there's enough time to get on season 21 if I start now. How hard can it be.

It's okay, you'll come around to the light side.

We have defeated the empire, it will take some time for you to get used to your new freedoms.

I believe in you. We're here to help you through this dark time.

Hold your head in the Y direction and see how beautiful the world is.
