I liked the soft gradient XP icons, though maybe that’s just the nostalgia talking

It really isn’t. I do agree that for most purposes a static network with some central public nodes is the answer, but I want something more dynamic

Yeah but how do you use it? There’s no searchable index as far as I’ve seen

What is i2p good for? I install it evert now and then, give it a whirl, and then uninstall it

I was also wondering about this. Flatpaks apparently come with more libraries to interact with other Flatpaks, whereas AppImages tend be purely app-specific and their libraries are compressed for their usage only.

Its very easy to use and my goto image editor, but I say that from a position of familiarity of having learned where everything is and what all the keybindings are over many years.

In contrast, Krita seems like a far better image editor, but because the interface is bewildering to me, I’ve shied away from it.

That’s what we want you to, uh, think!

You think your comics are safe from us? Follow the money and you will see that your comic writers have been inflitrated by Russian and Chinese oligarchs to promote subliminal messages through the confusing use of, uh *checks notes*, hats and cigars… which we all know are symbols of the, uh, struggle for freedom under oppression of capitalism. Yeaah.

I was going to write a snarky comment about how that can’t possibly be true… but then I tried it, and well, yep, really not ideal for non-tiling window managers. I liked the general look and feel, but the fullscreen by default does seem to be a big “no” from me.

I don’t think the sarcasm is warranted here, it offers a standard interface too but augments it with split browsing as an option

If everybody was fully exposed to the internet, a general consensus view on a topic would be eventually settled. The problem is that a lot of us live in walled gardens and the networks that be work to keep us in them

I like that. Creepiest thing about VLC is that it does that even after you’ve killed it

Who the haail, is Thomas Payne? Max Payne’s older brother?

xfce4. Stable as hell. X11. Can move windows around using just some keypresses.

booooo

I genuinely believe that Apple’s fan culture is just as bad as Tesla’s fan culture… with the caveat that Apples founder wasn’t visibly trying to sway an election with misinformation.

Again, I see a cyber truck, I point and laugh. I see a Mac user, I raise an eyebrow but say nothing.

Despite how he’s painted in the article, I actually quite like the guy. He bought an overpriced product but genuinely seems to like it and is a bit annoyed that people are laughing at him not because the product is expensive, but because of the association of the product with the manufacturers shitty politics.

It’d be like laughing at someone who bought an Apple Mac after the founder of the company has repeatedly been seen washing his feet in a toilet. Despite how overpriced and unnecessary the Mac is, people seem to like it and no one is making toilet associations with them. He’s asking for the same concession to be made for him.

Well I would, but I really hate the manufacturer, so I’m guessing I’m standing with my fellow mob of pointing and laughing. Sorry about that, my dear.

Thanks for the informed context – I think my brain is just predisposed towards seeing such efforts as disingenuous, but I should learn to criticize companies after they do bad things, and not before.
