@tk I would absolutely buy that image as an NFT for that money, provided it was actually released by David Thorne. It’s like a world-unique autograph, and I love that picture and that story.
@ie95mg0a whenever I remember GNOME exists in its current state, macOS suddenly starts looking a lot more attractive by comparison.
