    Hereby we continue discussing great names for pirates or pirate-themed bands
    Mark Bestavros
    @mbestavros
    Dread Pirate Enarx
    The Enarx logo would make a very good pirate flag, wouldn't it...
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    Actually, yes :thinking emoji:
    I really wish gitter had the thinking emoji
    Mark Bestavros
    @mbestavros

    I prefer its cousin, the thonking emoji:

    thonk

    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    Oh, no...... :anguished:
    Mark Bestavros
    @mbestavros
    So many crucial emoji oversights here, tsk tsk...

    @MikeCamel
    Why do pirates like statistical computing and graphics?
    Because they get to program in R! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_(programming_language))
    (I'll get my coat.)

    Gitter needs a lot of things, and one of those things is emoji reactions
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    Wow @MikeCamel wow

    Bad puns are my lifeblood
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    @mbestavros I agree, but can't express my agreement with an emoji reaction because...
    Mark Bestavros
    @mbestavros
    ...Gitter needs a lot of things, and one of those things is emoji reactions
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    Related, there is an extraordinarily active dad-jokes channel on RH's internal chat... Worth a visit sometime if you like groaning too much :P

    I'm quite proud of that: I literally just came up with it.
    The fact that I'm proud says it all, arguably.

    speaking of pirate-themed bands, Alestorm is a pretty fun act if you're also into that sort of thing
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    @frozencemetery Is that already a real band? We should all form a rival band if so...
    Robbie Harwood
    @frozencemetery
    lkatalin: it is absolutely a band :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRKAL-i-UbE they play a heavy metal / sea shanty fusion that unabashedly uses a keytar
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    Wow that sounds awesome, this is going to give Keytar Bear a run for his money

    ah ha ha, indeed it does :)

    it's a pretty niche pun, to be honest

    Not strictly Enarx-related, but I'm sure people here have thoughts: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/30/ibm-ceo-ginni-rometty-steps-down-arvind-krishna-to-take-over.html

    this is a bit terrifying: https://github.com/hakluke/how-to-exit-vim
    in a "no-thankfully-not-a-new-hardware-attack" way
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    @axelsimon Oh no: :!sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/kmem
    The "spiritual way" is also pretty good

    FWIW I read that and it hurt me

    Oh wow. You are a cruel, cruel man.

    This is an exquisitely crafted masterpiece of imperfection

    I know this is of interest to at least some people here (@lkatalin) https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/01/librem-5-phone-hands-on-a-proof-of-concept-for-the-open-source-smartphone/

    @mbestavros Nice! I really admire their perseverance. They even have schematics https://puri.sm/posts/a-different-kind-of-transparency/
    The battery seems like it's a problem, but if you accept that it is basically a glorified landline then it's fine : P
    Mark Bestavros
    @mbestavros
    Interestingly, it says the only real difference between this and the much-cheaper PinePhone is the fact this has isolated its closed-source components
    Lily Sturmann
    @lkatalin
    I missed that part. Though I was wondering...
