After years using xmonad I will finally leave gnome altogether, they screwed gnome 3 so bad that neither KDE or gnome are stable enough. The last GTK dependent package I need to leave is gnome-terminal / xfce-terminal. I guess I need to learn how to configure urxvt, anyone here uses urxvt and is willing to share the config?

I didn't, I used to have hotmail and then quickly jumped ships once Gmail entered its public beta. I doubt Yahoo will ever become relevant again, despite the regular efforts to revive it. At least Hotmail/Outlook/whateveritscallednow is backed by Microsoft. Yahoo Mail is basically on its way to becoming the Blackberry of email providers.

So my routing to 8chan was broken a week ago and then miraculously fixed the next day, a few hours ago my google route broke and is still gone as i type this post...what the shit is going on these past 2 years on the internet, it used to be stable and now every fucking thing is broken, even EH servers.
Is this an aftereffect of snowden/nsa or just China sabotaging everyone?

urxvt is actually an awesome terminal emulator once you understand how to configure it. Better than gnome and xfce terminals

Hail to Malaysian people, from the small sample I got they're brilliant.
A Malaysian guy is probably the best assembly programmer I know. Then, this week I was working at teaching assistant at my UNI, teaching biologists how to program in python. One Malaysian girl managed to learn to program decently in just two weeks (everyone else in the group was struggling). Fucking amazing.

Can't remember the exact reason why I thought Nokia was a Japanese brand so many years ago.

Programming classes in middle school are standard in various countries, i think Malaysia was one of them. I use the term programming lightly, all i saw was kids in school cobbling together apps with premade code/buttons/frameworks, they did no actual programming.
