I want to play a game.
BINGO, everyone loves bingo. So, from the list of stupid/pointless/mistaken/whatever things I've done...let's play bingo!
I figure that like myself, some of you have done all of these...but anyways...BINGO!!!

Re: I want to play a game.
LOL :-) I score only 4 points.....
BTW, what do you mean by "requires source for one of top 5 favorite wm's" ? You mean that the top 5 wm's that you use are all based on code that you must edit and recompile to change things?
I miss:
"Has used his system to compile programs for other platforms (cross compiling)"
"Has flashed CoreBoot on his BIOS"
"Has flashed a custom kernel as payload for CoreBoot"
"Uses busybox to boot his system"
"Only accepts Dvorak, Colemak for keyboard layouts"
"Has used a home brewed evolutionary algorithm to calculate optimal layouts. Uses 3 or more different layouts for different tasks"
"Uses 3 or more monitors"
"Has coloured LEDs on the backs of his monitors, to create cool 'ambilight' effects"

Re: I want to play a game.
This is also a handy "to do" list for those of us less experienced. :) 10 out of 25 for me.
Re: I want to play a game.
only 7 for me :)
All statements are true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and meaningless in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense, and true and false and meaningless in some sense.

Re: I want to play a game.
lol, 22 :D
I only miss the emacs function and I'm not sure if I have 100 keybindings ready, but yeah - counting wm's, emacs, tmux, screen, nano, vim and elinks/links2 together, sure.
I miss:
- has more than once successfully edited a file with ed or le
- knows the difference between sudo and su
- has no icon theme except hicolor on his X system
- uses info instead of man
- has used wajig as package manager

Re: I want to play a game.
@pothead, I meant that ANY of your top 5, but it doesn't really matter. It's just playing around. Some really good additions in there. "Only accepts Dvorak, Colemak for keyboard layouts"-I lol'ed. I know a guy like that.
@ MB: I haven't used wajig, and don't use info instead of man. (but I hear info uses vim keybinds...so there's that.)

^ 1 of them, and it makes a nice meme :D
How about:
- installed a full-feat desktop system just to remove parts of it and to end up in tty/tmux

11. May not know > 100 keybinds, but close enough. Like mb says, b/t vim, tmux, wm's, web browsers, etc.
and like bones states, also can be used as todo list

Ubuntu server sucked. IMO.
After it decided it didn't like eth0 and switched to using eth1, without so much of a how do you do (although that might have been a generic bug) and for some reason ssh'ing into it would take a loong time.
I much prefer my wheezy netinstall 8)
Re: I want to play a game.
I'm pretty poor at this, 6. I'm fiddling with a kernel though, so it will probably turn into an 8 (first it will not work fo' sho').

5 - and not likely to increase much above that due to a combination of laziness and mousehappiness (yes, it is a bloody word).

Re: I want to play a game.
10- not as bad as i thought. But only because i managed to dd to my HD just recently ("say, isn't sda my main HD ? Strange. Should i really dd to it ?"). Btw- do you get extra points for every kernell you compiled that did not work ? In that case i should have around 40 points. I am the king of building non working kernels. Just ask me if you ever want to lean how to build totally useless kernels that never work.
