    How is it licensed, Jigsaw? Eh? What distro is it from? Is that a fucking Snap wheel?

        What I hadn’t anticipated in my 20 years away from Linux was not only had teams of unpaid volunteers been beavering away behind the scenes to make everything work better, other much more enthusiastic teams have been thinking up new and exciting ways to break it again.

    I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as wheel, is in fact, GNU/Wheel, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus wheel.

        Use the -w flag and the wheel will weave as you will.

        Well, it would have been if people updated it when making changes; now it’s just all an incorrect snapshot of an older version of wheel that no longer reflects reality.

    The wheel has had a number of innovations over the years. The earliest wheels were flat disks of wood that were heavy and slow turning. The Romans invented spokes and metal rims which made them faster, more durable, and gave them more traction. Questions we need answered: What is this wheel in particular designed to do? Is there any way we could make it work more efficiently at its task? Do we value performance over reliability, or vice versa? Etc. Etc.

      I think we need to take a bit of a step back and consider what kind of shed we might use to store this wheel…

        To answer that, we’ll need to do a deep dive into foundation technology (to determine if it is lacking and needs some improvements) (because we don’t want our wheelshed to sink).

      What is this wheel in particular designed to do? Is there any way we could make it work more efficiently at its task? Do we value performance over reliability, or vice versa?

      It works fine. It’s a perfectly good wheel.

      Hey where is Underwaterbob?

      He’s trapped in that Jigsaw room.

      The door is unlocked though?

      Yeah, but there is a wheel in there and UWB won’t leave until he figures out if there is a way to improve it.

      Has any one asked him to?

      No

      Will he get paid to improve it?

      No

      What does the wheel do?

      You roll it out of the way so you can exit the room.

        Well, now I’m clearly going to have to find a way to monetize the wheel as well.

          Put a lock on the wheel and charge people $0.99 to temporarily unlock it.

            Evil. I like it! Maybe some mandatory ad viewing somehow shoehorned into the unlocking process as well.

    But my wheel will be much better. I will start from the center with a very simple skeleton and build on top of it as needed. It will be very modular, elegant and easy to understand. It will be my masterpiece.
