He wasn’t imprisoned for 30+ years. He got 7 years and was out after 5. He was, in his own words, ‘locked up in [his mind]’ for 30+ years.
It’s a duck blur!

if it’s worth 2100 miles and a border crossing to you, you can have it, haha
Referring more to the people talking about how it’s such a good deal. I think $10 is pretty close to what it cost to buy from the shuttered Blockbuster a decade ago, haha.
Wait are these worth something? I have one of these I have been wanting to throw away.
Warzone 2100. 3D RTS from the late 90s that was open-sourced after the studio went belly-up. Fantastic game, runs on even ancient hardware.
Edit to add: Forgot to mention it is still receiving updates!
Genuinely I’d trust random FOSS stranger on the internet before I’d trust Google, Samsung, Apple, etc. It’d be a lot of work to be the sole maintainer of a LineageOS distro that only functions on one specific phone just to try to steal the data of the maybe 12 people who are going to install it.
I think, especially as you get towards “newer” vintage systems, the logical conclusion is the same one he reached - if you want a compact portable and you’re okay spending a couple hundred dollars, you’re probably going to be better off buying something from the time period than anything new that may be sold at that price point.
It’s the Lilac color scheme that really makes it - we had that on my family’s first PC and classic Win UIs don’t look quite right to me without it.
