A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).

- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I hope not given how out of date it’s be by now.
Yeah I remember this. Though I thought it was even older than 2011. But maybe I’m confusing this with some redhat/fedora based distro some hardware manufacturer was shipping OEM with their x86 desktops around 2007. Can’t think of the name. But anyway that page you link shows an update from just last month. Though it sounds like it’s written by a bot. I’d wonder if it’s full of Chinese malware.
