Please don't take my observations personally. All too often I see humans, much like the fish chomping on a juicy worm hiding the hook, not getting quite what they bargained for. Over the years I have learned to curb my appetite and found it makes life much less complicated . . .

Imagine rain flowing down a mountain. It does not flow in just one channel. There are many channels that branch off and form ponds or even lakes. So it is with our wanderings in space and time that have brought us together in the Devuan pond. It sustains a very unique collection of individuals the likes of which I have not encountered elsewhere in over 8 decades of searching . . .

I don't understand why anyone with connected brain-cells would touch facebook.  IOW the problem isn't Facebook because it is a CHOICE to use or not to use it.

But then . . . humans are egregiously lacking in self control and all too often end up screwing themselves by indulging in things they think they have to have . . .

The solution is to just say NO!

Thoughts from an old and cranky observer of human behavior . . .

@Mike . . . I was wondering about that too so I checked activity on the list directly. The last post to DNG was several days ago 2024-02-07. Traffic there is sometimes very active and sometimes non-existent though I can't remember it being this quiet before. Try posting a legitimate post to the list and see if that kicks it into gear. 

PS. Have you checked Spam?

I will be happy to edit your first post once you have the URL in place. 

Sinking boat? Famous book? You lost me . . .

There are actually 3 options. You forgot about actually DOING SOMETHING besides talking about it.

Never fear! pkgd may be on the horizon!!

Sorry couldn't resist . . .

Sorry for the misread . . .

Yeah . . . guilty as charged! Title made sense to me. Happy to hear you approve!

You are too clever!

@chomwitt . . . It seems you are misunderstanding my intentions in posting that article. We are actually on the same page regarding the trajectory and cost of such contrived "progress". That is the story of human history and should come as no surprise . . . greed, hubris and ultimately self-destruction. That is the human way . . .
