Re: The You Game!
< wonders if we could just shorten it to leave out the "eureka" bit. Then we'd probably have to recolour and/or laterally reflect it to make sure people don't mix them up!

Re: The You Game!
< didn't know that, but < doesn't use Windows anyway (except at work, where that knowledge might come in handy
). There's probably an equivalent shortcut on Gnome, but < uses the Luakit browser which isn't exactly Gnome-integrated.
< also likes smileys because they're old-school, like ^!

Re: The You Game!
< is curious about how does that Luakit browser work as it has read that name for the very first time in ^'s post. < searched on the Internet some videos about it and all < has seen are guys typing commands everywhere and at that point < doesn't even think it's a usual web browser like Mozilla, Chrome, Opera...
