Hi all, I just found out about Wirth's Law:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wirth%27s_law Hey, I live in the 21st century, so I don't try to optimize out a kilobyte at a time. But I'm also not blind, so I know that Openbox plus dmenu is a whole lot quicker and snappier, even on modern computers, than KDE, Gnome or Unity. LOL, there's a certain mindset: * Look at all this room in the new house. Better buy some furniture to fill it up. * Look at all the money in my bank account. I'd better start spending. * Look at all the RAM and CPU in my computer. I'd better get some programs that use it all. * Look at this simple operating system on this powerful, capable hardware. I'd better make more complex software because I can.
