Would you want to meet me?
Sure, if I could get over my anxiety about disappointing or hurting any people of the internet that I might meet IRL and losing them.
Would you add me on Friendface? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hio88ZmFUWQ
If I was on it, then yeah probably, but I am not really enjoying most social media anymore, not even mentioning the usual concerns over privacy/attention economy etc.
What mode of transportation do you prefer and what do you use the most?
I love trains! I only have good memories of my train trips, even back when I was commuting for three years by train and sometimes had to deal with delays of a few hours. When entering the workforce I ended up within walking distance of everything including the office, so I stopped commuting by train and I do not really want to go back to that. Trains are nice but the commute could get hella tiring! I still love riding trains on the occasional long distance trip.
I used to ride a non-electric scooter for my daily trips but stopped because it doesn't change my trip time much, and because electric scooters have made it nearly impossible for me to ride in peace. I seem to bother everyone despite being much less dangerous than those.
Cowa-boonga or cow-a-boonga?
coward, bonk dat
Would you like living on a farm? (Not owning a farm or run a farm, just live on one with all the animals, sounds and smells)
I am very much a city person. While it might be nice to be a calm place, being in a rural environment means I would start to probably depend on a car, which I really don't want to, and I want to be able to go outside to do things independently despite not having a car. So I prefer to live in or near a city center. Right now I can walk to a small grocery store, a pharmacy, a lab, a public library, a laundromat, or various restaurants in 5 minutes, the train station or my office in 10 minutes, and my doctor is less than 100m from my place. This definitely helps when I need to force myself to go outside on the days I am depressed.
Your beverage of choice on a hot day?
Either the hot drinks just like on cold days (yes i'm completely fine with a hot drink even when i'm dying from the heat because i just love those too much), or any non-alcoholic cold drink with lemon. Glory to lemon \o/
Your beverage of choice on a cold day?
Coffee, tea, infusions, hot chocolate, hot white chocolate, warm milk, whatever is on the whole shelf i dedicate to nice hot drinks!
Do you listen to podcasts? And if yes, which one would you recommend? (More than one can be mentioned ofc)
Not that many, but some friends have started to make some so I'm following those: the Lowtech Radio Gazette (feed) and Tilde Whirl (feed)
hey, how are you?
hi, feeling stressed and burnt out because the end of the year is always busy and stressful… you?
What's your favourite dinosaur?
my thinkpad r50e running windows xp
https://lime360.neocities.org/ How do you rate my site
It's pretty nice, I will definitely have to steal that "I miss XP" badge! Three suggestions:
Your RSS feed does not validate on the W3C, it seems you have one slash too much in the atom:link
and something wrong with date parsing, because November 10th 2022 is in the future and is on a Thursday and not a Tuesday. The atom:link
is not really important, but the broken date likely means an RSS reader will either catch fire, ignore this specific blog post entirely, or set its date to the current date, ignoring the one you put.
I had a hard time finding where there were clickable links since they do not have any styling at all; maybe distinguish them a little bit, even just with a white underline if you want to keep everything in the same color?
For extra coolness points on the two "escape" gifs at the bottom you could add some image maps so that you can click on just the two X
buttons to escape from reality, maybe taking you to some unusual place like OSGrid?

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as 弱肉共食, is in fact, GNU/弱肉共食, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus 弱肉共食. 弱肉共食 is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "弱肉共食", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a 弱肉共食, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. 弱肉共食 is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. 弱肉共食 is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with 弱肉共食 added, or GNU/弱肉共食. All the so-called "弱肉共食" distributions are really distributions of GNU/弱肉共食.
When do you usually go to bed?
Ideally, I would like to be waking up at 5 or 6am every day, including weekends, but I rarely reach that because I never go to bed at a fixed time… I've been trying to go no later than 11pm to wake up at 6 lately, though sometimes I end up going at like 2am. I guess at some point I'll get tired enough to go to sleep at a more normal time…
What's your favorite mcdonalds menu item?
By far, the 280, and most of my relatives who eat McDonald's stuff share that opinion. In France, the 280 is a burger that weighs 280g, with a square bun, a larger-than-usual patty, tomatoes, onions and some pepper sauce. It's pretty simple, but it never disappoints, and the quantity/price ratio is pretty good. Unfortunately, it's a semi-temporary burger (it disappears from the menu then comes back every sometimes), so gotta get it while you can. I think it's on the menu right now, gotta go get some soon…
Do you know you're a lil mew mew?
I'm not sure I really am. Do lil mew mews sip you? If so then yeah maybe I could be one.
