Yeah, tell me about it. Wrote an Othello (Reversi) program for an AI college class on Turbo Pascal 3.0. In CP/M. On a Coleco Adam (yes I'm a masochist - the screen scrolling wore over time). Thankfully it had dual drives and was able to port it over to a Zenith IBM clone for final turn-in.

And in doing so, has been pissing off a lot of professional Linux users who have, for *decades*, built systems and workflows predicated on being able to display application windows from networked servers onto remote workstations.

I'll note that while they greybeards have been doing their thing for close to 40 years now, the pissing off has been going on for a while too. This whole Wayland experiment is entering its second decade of sticking its fingers in its ears and going lalalalala.

I wish I had mod points. Spot on.
