Grape deboner, a thankless job… :(
Did you know that 2017 is closer to the fall of Troy than it is to today?
(Edit: I looked it up, and it seems that it isn’t true)

Me, watching at the pages upon pages of games I haven’t even touched yet in my collection… Even if half of them are complete duds, and half of what’s left is kind of meh, I’ve got enough to be entertained forever even if all gaming studios vanish overnight.

It’s only half again as expensive! It’s a steal!
First used: TWM / TVWM
Then: FVWM
Then: Windowmaker
Then: Enlightenment (briefly)
Then: Gnome (briefly)
Then KDE (to this day)
I played around with a number of others, but never really used them much.
