Been playing 15 minutes with this, and now I got a headache.....
So I guess they did a wonderful job in recreating the old experience. 🤣

Working perfectly on Xubuntu, so I guess it is working on all the other Ubuntu deriatives.
Has anyone else tried this little piece of software?

Don't eat stuff off a 15 year old never cleaned cpu cooler.
Those cakes make you sick....

A while back I had a genuine serial terminal around for when I wanted to timeshare like it was 1974.

All hail the Great Capacitor Brand Finder

I have it on my Macbook. It's not my default terminal (I have TotalTerminal accessible via dropdown hotkey 😉 ) but it's fun to use when I need to bask in that warm orange or green glow.
