Tatler source: "This includes machinery that causes a tree to rise from a trapdoor and three sets – a simple interior, a forest and a temple of Minerva – the latter being the oldest intact decor in the world, dating back to 1754 – ‘our own Mona Lisa,’ said Masson."
OP article: "What is it? The Temple of Minerva theater set (c.1754) from Marie-Antoinette’s private theater."
OP caption on picture of theater: "Temple of Minerva theater (c. 1754)"
This [0] is the Mona Lisa of Hacker News. (Most favorited post circa 2020, though now that would likely be something else.)
The Mob Museum was great though.

Yeah because that should be the end goal of everything right?
And from the response:
> 1. re: the first part, many people want something plug and play. and even if they were plug and play, the problem is that the user experience (on windows at least) with online drives generally sucks, and you don't have disconnected access.
Bingo. I am a really quite experienced Linux user (I've been using it since it came on two floppy disks and didn't really work) and I too want things that are just plug-and-play. Time spent dicking about making things work is time not spend doing something fun, although I get that for some folk their goal in using Linux is to "Be Using Linux". For most of us I suspect that extends out to "Be Using Linux to solve problems we actually have, not just be using Linux for the sake of it".
