was mythryl.org
https://github.com/mythryl/mythryl
A programming language which resurrects and improves upon SML/NJ to create the first production-ready mathematically-provable language.
Had incredible potential; I was highly interested in this and its abandonment was the final nail in the coffin for my desire to program.
Abandoned – The author Cynbe ru Taren (Jeffrey Prothero) died, the community evaporated, and a resulting foundation was later abandoned by his widow.

A command line tool to interact with an EWMH/NetWM compatible X Window Manager. Get information, resize, move, etc.
A good tool for what it does.
Abandoned – Not updated

was cityofheroes.com
A superhero game.
It wasn’t very original and had awkward controls.
2024-01-04 – A private server reportedly got an NCSoft license to keep going.
Zaurus SL-C1000 > Zaurus distributions >
was pdaxrom.org
X11 GUI. GTK+/2 and QT3 support out of the box.
A complete collection of files. It looks very easy to recompile applications for.
Also has another guy who is modding it with some interesting results. His mods create a combination X and Qt environment, to run both kinds of applications.

This program adjusts an audio mixer from X11, the console, a terminal, the command line or a script. It uses the Open Sound System API.
This did the job when I needed the job done.

https://beaver-editor.sourceforge.net/
A text editor.
I like it in general. It’s on par with mousepad and Leafpad, although of the three, leafpad reserves the least amount of memory.
Abandoned.

OptionHouse is an AddOn to manage AddOns. It’s a pretty simple concept.
Works, but no longer shows what addons are loaded
It’s called OptionHouse on curse, and the escape menu shows “Option House” (with a space)

Followup YouTube+RSS-related stuff is in Atheist YouTube channels, now gone
I was intending to do a decent post every day, but I got really burned out. Why? I’ve been struggling with several different programs over the last couple of weeks. I’ve been sick and tired of the clumsiness that my apathy has allowed.
I think everyone has a sort of apathy towards usability issues. We take them as excusable or as some sort of status quo “that’s just the way it is”. I’m sick and fucking tired of that. Seriously.
