trog

Flying over Ironforge there was that dwarf/trog fight that you could never get to, but always wanted to.

I saw an NPR piece mentioned by trog, but that does not change my viewpoint.

I'm confident that I'm not the only old crusty Australian Quake player who got a smile from seeing trog comment on hn.

For my SVG-based UI, this meant I had to do a startup feature test for pre or post-trog Linux and scale the font accordingly on post-trog machines to make sure it fit properly into the box.

> It makes no sense to be the scapegoat of unhappy extremists Check the tone of the comments by myself and trog above, we're a mostly friendly nation happy to meet people from across the globe, currently something like 25% of the Australian population was born overseas.

So pre-trog Ubuntu perhaps would have X width for "Hello World This Should Fit Perfectly An SVG Rect" at size 10px, while post-trog Ubuntu would have X+7.

In germany we say "Wo ein Trog ist, sammeln sich die Schweine", especially in the discussion around recall.

If you want it distilled down from my perspective, it went something like this: > Trog: Doubts about the necessity of Merkle trees.

Where there's feeding troughs of data, the pigs will always come to demand being fed (a rough translation of the German saying "Wenn man den Trog hat, kommen die Schweine von ganz alleine").

In Germany, back from the IP address collection debate over a decade ago, we have the saying "Wo ein Trog ist kommen die Schweine" [3] - where there's a feeding trough, pigs will come on their own.

There is a German saying: "Wo ein Trog ist kommen die Schweine." roughly translates to "Where there is a trough - the pigs will come." Rather fitting for all the crypto meltdowns in the last years.

Been decades since I stayed in a cave hotel in Coober Pedy, but I have stayed in a "trog" home in France and a cave BnB in Turkey - as much as the stuffiness, it felt like there was mineral-heavy dust always in the air, from the stone walls?
