And that’s why IMO the project should ensmallened. Instead of trying to catch up to everything bloatware internet and Google are doing, Neo Firefox / Neo Mozilla could instead focus on developing a subset that’s lean and safe to use (no JS, for example) or even promote and offer first-class support to alternative internets like Gemini (the actual one, not Google’s namesquat).

There are still versions of Opera with their own original engine going around.

Damn, Presto should return. That thing could load like 300 tabs in like 30, maybe 60 MB RAM tops.

Eh, at least beats the Trump mpreg.

Is this new work of art in AO3 yet?

if it’s a superior system, then it’ll become the new standard

Not even remotely close to how it works. Remember: we had pulseaudio as the “new standard” for a decent while.

To be fair: not by our own account.

, and the laptop doesn’t have an Ethernet port so off you go to buy a usb-eth adaptor.

What, no Android USB tether? It’s been native since Debian 6 IIRC.

Yes but IMO the merge conflict PPV would work and be awesome, and the straight-up bribery already works.

How did you even get the picture of the W fan? W doesn’t even provide screen capture, nor global hotkeys to make PrintScreen work.

Maybe you jest but now I’m seriously wondering why hasn’t this been proposed. It’s defo better than something like “disallow list”.

Oh yeah that was a shitshow. I made a point to keep “master” in my repos and configurations because it’s the other meaning of master - one of the many others. Words are allowed to mean different things, ya know? If I’m drinking some coke I’m certainly not drugging myself (…I hope).

After all, the command to attach to a master is not “git slave”, it’s “git pull”.

They have a button to go to the latest version of the docs, but not to the equivalent page on the latest version

Oh yeah this is a PITA. Tho in that case it’s skill issue on their end.

Course I do. Why, do you need a link to the newest version of the joke?

Skill issue. Old version docs tend to offer you a redirect to more recent docs, and even then something sintactic like an “IN” operator is unlikely to change in form or structure between versions of a database engine.

That and the weird aversion to introducing new or useful keywords, or even extending the symbol set that doesn’t even use full ASCII.

Eh, I’ve always felt these solutions are complementary, or supplementary, rather than a “versus”. Each one, in particular cases, covers gaps the others can’t cover. The only one that’s unneeded is Snap.

For example, I like Flatpak. I like that I can get software from an authorized hub, much like with a package manager. I like that the releases of the apps in the hub are mostly well documented.

But no matter how nice Flatpak seems to be, its overreliance on “portals” and “buses” and “seals” comes associated with trying to over-engineerize my system too much for its own good. Every app I have ever tried on Flatpak, for example, doesn’t support audio, apparently because I have the godly, eternal, battle-tested ALSA and not the manchild’s crap that is PulseAudio. But since apparently PulseAudio is the GNome / Microsoft approved way to do audio on Linux, I’m supposed expected to have it. What’s next? systemd-flatpakd?

OTOH, I picked up the AppImage for Freetube and not only do I get audio but it loads and runs noticeably faster than the Flatpak version. And since it’s an official release I know where can I trustably get an update from. Literally no downsides!

But I sure as hell am not going to go for an AppImage for an app from which I expect more integration with my desktop activity, such as say a code editor or an advanced image / model viewer. Not if I can help it. Because I am going to be expecting to be able to stuff like drag and drop, have a correct tray icon, etc.

So that means I have to keep an eye on both solutions.

Hey, at least I’m avoiding Snap!

Now if there’s an AppImage for Steam somewhere… maybe…

Hahahahaha lol, I wish it had gone unnoticed a bit more. Scamming techbros and cryptobros sounds cool.

I’ve seen nothing in the requirements that say that the designated person has to be reachable. If I had to set a fediverse instance of something, I’d just set the mailer inbox to /dev/null or smth to save storage. Or just subject the corpos to the same treatment they subject normal citizens,

Dear sender. Your request has been added to our queue for review - might not want a malintentioned party get through safety procedures, wouldn’t we? We know you understand us better than anyone. You may get a reply in a period from 48 to 72 days, our staff is very busy but we certainly have you in our hearts. God bless America, Heil Trump, and we’ll make the free software communists build the wall and pay for it! Cheers.

Word, Rust shills are the most annoying and shitting of the programming language zealots I’ve seen since the Java Enterprise shilling of the early 200xs. WHat’s worse, their memes aren’t even good, unlike the JS memes.

But their choices do impact other projects. I may not use Gnome, but the choices made on theming (or lack of) , for example, now also effect XFCE.
