Difference is the labels in the latter case are accurate by all accounts.

Really doubt Mamdani is a jihadist, but we see a Republican arrested for child porn at least quarterly. 🤷‍♂️

It's been a long road, but people are finally realising Enterprise was good. As a long-time fan, I've had faith others would come around. Makes my heart feel big.

Now do Palestinians.

Because our children being fucking dumb enough that 86 of them ate LAUNDRY DETERGENT is an issue.

When it is so easy to replace characters in strings for a computer, why would this help?

I am open to being educated, but this seems like old wives tale stuff about how to keep the AI demons away.

You are ignoring people who have walked this path and are giving you the advice right now.

Public file hosting is not where you start.

You don't get it?

All of human history exists because we solved scarcity.

The past 12,000 years has been trying to convince the hoarding assholes to stop making life shitty for everyone else.

You shouldn't just be mad, you should feel the injustice of it all in your ancestral bones.

Tor Norretranders agrees with you. You should read The User Illusion if you haven't already.

I’m in my late 30s now, and my body feels better than in my early 20s, as I had stopped working out during that time. Also ended up getting diagnosed for adhd in my mid 40s and just this year had vyvanse prescribed which has proved a huge help.

How old are you? What is this? I worry I am engaging with an AI here or something.

I prefaced my response by saying it was a counterpoint.

🤷‍♂️

When searching for "winver" it will now show the "About this System" page in Plasma 6.6.

I will just offer this as evidence that Plasma seems targeted at a different user base than what I belong to. Others can decide for themselves what they're looking for.

Gonna give a quick counterpoint as someone who has used everything from Enlightenment WM to Windows 3.1, to Irix and who now uses GNOME:

I flipped over to Plasma the other day to see if I was missing out and I am not. Plasma felt unrefined and cluttered and seemed overly influenced by Windows. I switched back.

I will probably check it out again if they continue to make progress, but I, for one, prefer GNOME.
