And old users!


Yes, in fact, when we talk about talk, we're really talking about ntalk. Keep in mind that it went through a very difficult time.


It should talk about it.


We must stand on the shoulders of giants!


I get the same feeling when I see my colleagues writing in Notion, it's like invading their privacy.


With today's technology, I miss being able to interact with other readers who are reading the article at that moment. It's so much fun!


I added his name to the article and dedicated it to him. Thank you for the suggestion.


I'm doing it myself, it's a stream of my .plan: https://andros.dev/now/


Great work!

Perhaps a global database or a parallel project like a search engine focused on fingering is needed. The sources are scattered, and clients like yours would greatly benefit from that.

I'd also like to mention that if you have Emacs, I also have my own client: https://git.andros.dev/andros/efinger.el


"The Charted Public Fingerverse" does a pretty good job at this! https://640kb.neocities.org/fingerverse/

Was definitely an inspiration for lookit. And yes, a search engine would be cool!


Wow! Thank you!


the bare minimum!


I'm dying! Using Telnet to flirt. The father of Tinder XD


No, that I think would be Match.com or something along those lines. This is like the grandfather or grand-grandfather of Tinder, but not even intentionally.

What I find funny is how an Estonian proverb/saying would fit here quite nicely: “don’t try to teach your grandfather how to have sex.” In this case, the grandfather didn’t need teaching - it was molded by the era into what was necessary.


match.com is a company that literally owns Tinder and nearly every "dating site" btw (even the one you're thinking of, it doesn't matter, it owns all of them including the ones that used to pride themselves on not being owned by match.com).


In the late 80s, a friend of mine broke up with his girlfriend via email while they were both sitting in the same computer lab.
