Here's a history lesson regarding this forum to explain to Non_Woke_Linux_User and other newcomers how I became an admin here . . .

Devuan's first forum was Discourse. It was not very well received by Devuan users. So I created and self-hosted Dev1Galaxy as the "The Officially Unofficial Devuan Forum!" alternative. Two or so years later, Discourse was mothballed and Dev1Galaxy became the "Officially Official Devuan Forum!".

Let this be a reminder that the fantasies we dream up in our head most often have little to do with reality!

Perhaps you will learn, grasshopper . . .

Would that be a red heifer or a white buffalo calf? Not that it matters for this. I think I can change your user name. Send me the name you want using the email you used to register. I'll post back here to let you know if I was successful or not.

Contemplating physical, verbal and/or mental actions before executing them usually avoids situations like this. Your problem is YOUR doing! You are fun to play with!!

Ok, here I go!

Can the gods of this sacred forum illuminate me with their ancient wisdom and give the knowledge that I'm looking for?

If you bestow me with your ancient knowledge I promise to sacrifice to you the best calf that I have on my herd!

Please listen to my plea and help this humble servant on his moment of need!
