  • why are so many who preach privacy or using Linux, etc, still using a MS product?

    As someone else already mentioned, familarity. You published a repo of your foss project so other people can contribute to it and the more the merrier. Most people happen to be on github.

  • I actually liked Oxygen but the application style and window borders made my poor crappy laptop with ah Intel Core Duo 2 and 3 GB on RAM slower. Had to use QtCurve or disable all animations and gradients and stuff. Maybe it was just ahead of its time, now that pseud-skeumorphism is doing a bit of a pushback.

  • I loathe that stupid anti-linux attitude from FreeBSD/OpenBSD (and sometimes even Haiku). Most of the time it just make them seem like crybabies, from Theo de Raadt going down: imagine being such a d-bag that even freaking Linus Tolvards calls you "a difficult person" - he says Linux folks do what they do "because they hate Microsoft" but they do what they do "because they love UNIX" but at the end of the day it seems they do what they do because they hate Linux.

    They want to be more popular than Linux and their strategy is... to bitch about it instead of letting their own work speak for itself.

    No OS is perfect. Not even self-proclaimed ultra-secure OpenBSD has been 100% free of vulnerabilities.

  • an application with an odd name, designed entirely to easily install and update the Firefox GNOME Theme, which transforms Firefox (or LibreWolf, in my case) into something that much more closely resembles a GNOME/libadwaita application

    When I used to be around in reddit once read a post or a comment from someone who claimed to be a gnome dev calling for a direct port of firefox to wayland to solve all of those gui kit issues once and for all.

    Someone else said such thing was not possible - you can port gui apps' kits to gui kits, not to desktop rendering engines - but a few days ago I also read something about developing an app directly on wayland and that it would be really difficult.

    At this point I don't know what to believe but if this can be done it would be awesome. It's kind of funny that the linux version of firefox, written in gtk, needs extra stuff to look good and integrated even in freaking gnome

  • I wish they can figure out thunderbolt/external monitor support soon

  • But Celsius are still °C

  • Pretty sure it's like 4°K = -269.15°C

  • I heard environmental factors also are a factor for heart diseases - namely, air pollution.

  • and china, they domesticated chinese food

  • I so wish they can bring back the one-wallpaper-per-virtual-desktop thing. I've been missing it since the KDE 4.x days, but now seeing the dynamic virtual desktops thing in GNOME makes me wish KDE had it as an option (like, you could chosse between dynamic virtual desktops or fixed virtual desktops).

  • Some 20-25 years ago on a local radio FM station they used to run a "bumper" from time to time of a narrator saying that one time in WWII Nazi Germany sent a decrepit train full of excrement, trash and whatnot to neutral Switzerland, trying to tease them and make them join the war. In rensponse Switzerland cleaned, fixed and painted the train, put fresh food and flowers and everything and sent it back to Germany and in the engine they put a giant banner reading "each one gives the best of themselves" or something like that - pretty sure that story was just a myth but at those times when I heard it I wished it was true because it was so fucking funny.

  • Makes me think it would be cool if there was a website or something that listed FOSS projects needing translations and people could look up by the languages they want to translate

  • I just don't like ssdm or logind non-integration with kde.

  • As if I didn't had enough reasons to love Gentoo.

  • I still wonder if the systemd imposition on the new login manager is absolute and can't be circumvented in any way, i.e. GNOME is allegedly dependent on systemd but you can circumvent it by using logind instead of the full systemd install

  • I want to know what it is that specific reason you need PS?

  • They bite me like 10 times around my knees and 2 times on my fingers the other day (wednesday last week). I was carrying long pants. I still don't know how they did that. It still itches.

    I'm type O. My mother, who was next to me, is type A. She wasn't bitten even once.
