but my currency runs on eth!

nolCoin is an experimental crypto-currency where anyone can make as many as they want for free (plus gas) but only in amounts of a maximum 255 at a time. then when total coins reach uint256 max no more can be made.

implemented as standard erc20 token, plus a make(address, amount) function you can use to create coins!

Well, I see there's at least been some action on the TextInput regressions that were keeping us on fork! <3

Not that running a patched version is necessarily a huge deal, but it's nice to have that 'this random code is approved by someone that actively works on the codebase' stamp.

(well, still might be on 0.55.3 for the version if NetInfo we can work around, but I do appreciate the project, warts and all)


Been actively wondering if there would be enough interest/momentum for a community LTS fork.

Love RN, and the daunting vastness of the surface area not lost on me, but would be totally ok with me if development stalled for 6 months of purely bug-fix releases. Maybe I'd sound differently if I cared about integration with native apps.

People (me) were just mad because seemingly in the blink of an eye they went from having a stable mature linux desktop, sometimes even approaching "it just works," to having that ripped away and replaced with a choice between [radical new desktop] or xfce. Unity or GNOME Shell might really be great, but that's a huge change to force on unsuspecting neckbeards.

Wish Canonical would have just created MATE themselves.


This is exactly right, it was timing.

I have been using Ubuntu since 2005 and it was a rough grind on the "just-works" front in those beginning days. By 2010, desktop Ubuntu was in great shape and laptop Ubuntu was nearly there (moreso on suspend/resume, not so much on battery). People were just starting to breathe and then Unity came and threw any semblance of stability out the window.


Lucid and maverick where possibly the best desktop experiences I've had. Going to Natty (and oneric), with its many bugs was such a huge shock that I pretty much stopped using Ubuntu and switched to Mint


Not even a viable option.

Shame really since the techn isn't bad these days.


Better than getting bought by Dice at least.

<3 jQuery, maybe nostalgia talking but still one of my favorite pieces of software ever. Made DOM manipulation fun.


> Made DOM manipulation fun.

same! Jquery is still quite useful and powerful. This is also what rails does for me; makes web development fun. Or highcharts making charts fun, or elasticsearch making search fun. To me that's a testament to elegantly solving a problem. I just don't get those fuzzies with react.


Well since companies are people, more like skin cells. They all get replaced every whatever days but you're still you!
