@trini My goodness, I feel old as I didn't even know what that is!

I just read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solarized & in fact my #000000 on #e5e5e5 Emacs colors look very close to solarized Base3. (My Emacs windows look a lot like: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bd/Solarized_Light_Xcode_4_Theme_%285592863390%29.png (except I don't write Objective-C of course🤣).

So maybe I actually invented light solarized in 1993 when I picked black-on-linen the fist time!

I never used the #e5e5e5 for terminal windows b/c I wanted to distinguish them visually from #Emacs easily.

Solarized - Wikipedia

For 33 years, My terminal windows've been #FFFFFF background w/ #00000 text. My thinking when I was 18 years old was that I wanted my windows on the computer to look like paper. I generally only used #FFFFFF on #000000 on airplanes as laptop LCDs could be seen from more angles that way.
With so much display in my face, I am wondering if this is too intense, so I'm trying #FFFFFF on #00000 for a while.
BTW, for #Emacs, I always (&still) use #000000 on #e5e5e5 (or "linen"), which is a bit softer.

However, CentOS users must […]

Why is Ubuntu Linux the leading choice to replace CentOS for financial services?

Financial services are powered by technology. The customer experience is increasingly driven by data, with tailoring of products and services to reflect individual behaviors and preferences. All of this rests on a foundation of secure, stable technology that can support agility and flexibility to adapt to customer needs, whilst at the same time remaining compliant.  Financial services organizations using CentOS as their foundation for innovation watched as CentOS 8 retired in 2021, […]
