I dearly love #Slackware, don't get me wrong, but I have to say that, compared to #NetBSD it feels a bit on the heavier side, if you see what I mean...

Also, qemu tells you that you can choose the VNC port, but it is LYING!! LYING, I SAY!!

Bad qemu! Bad!!

But VNC'ing into a small #NetBSD VM and launching X11 and Xeyes is really funny.

Same, fam, same!

Slightly ironic that seeing a screenshot of Xeyes makes me feel nostalgic for the time I discovered it on Sun workstations in 1992 which (checks mental notes) made me feel nostalgic (??) for the classic mac "Eyes" application (which put a pair of eyeballs in your menu bar) from a couple years prior. ;)

Ok, this is random, but I managed to find the classic Macintosh program (from 1989!) that XEyes reminded me of all those years ago: [Eyeballs]
