It sadly doesn’t quite work right on KDE. You can get close: you can show an application launcher, or a exposé-like window overview, or a pager, but you can’t show all of them at once in a way that’s easy to work with between like Gnome does.

Heck, even Gnome regressed Gnome 40, as you don’t get the vertical desktop overview any more. At least there’s shell extensions that let me get Gnome 3’s behaviour back.

It’s a real pity, because I like KDE, and definitely the KDE apps, more, but the Super-key overview is no hard to quit.

The only reason I don’t use KDE is because it doesn’t do the super-key expose/dash/overview like Gnome.

Sorry, the double-negative threw me for a loop.

The Boomers fought in world wars?

In utero, maybe.

You could start taxing them. Especially the rich ones.

You know that’s an option, right?

If someone could port AUX’s UI, that would be perfect.

And as a fellow System 6/7 fan, it’s love, not masochistim. Long live the spatial Finder!

Again, it’s “Don’t quote the troll”. Some of us learned this in Usenet in the 1990s.

Saying “This is bullshit” or “You’re weird” without engaging with their ideas stops the contagion from spreading.

It is, though. Studies in disinformation have proven this. This is why right-wing bullshitters are so eager to engage in debate: just getting the chance to show up and be refuted in a legitmate setting, like a major newspaper, gives them an audience for the ideas and credibility, that their position is one worthy of refute.

This is how we got the alt-right in 2015: by taking neo-Nazis seriously.

This is what the media doesn’t understand, and why fact-checkers are getting–correctly–rolled on social media. Every time you bring up one of these lies, even to fact check it–especially to fact-check it–you give it credibility.

This is why the Harris/Walz campaign’s tactic of ridicule is working so well. Instead of saying “No, you’re wrong about XXX because YYYY and ZZZZ”, they’re saying “What is wrong with you? You’re weird.” The latter doesn’t give the lie any oxygen.

“Liberal” doesn’t mean what many people think it means.

It doesn’t mean “leftist” or “progressive” or “humane”. There might be some overlap, but these are not the same things, despite conservatives trying to define them as such.

Yes it is.

You might not wish it to be, but fact-checking absolutely does amplify fake news, especially if you give details.

A simple “this story is bullshit” is all that’s needed

And now you, the mainstream media, are amplifying it and giving it oxygen.

It’s like y’all never learned the old Usenet adage: “don’t feed (quote) the trolls”.

“If everyone is covered in mud, it makes it less obvious that you’re covered in shit.”

This is Liz and her cohort trying to “both sides!!” away the behaviour they incited.

It’s crab-bucket PR: if they can get enough of the media saying how bad the left is, it makes the right-wing pogroms less horrifying.

Trump did the same thing post-Charlottesville, conflating BLM and Antifa with the rich-setting, “Jews will not replace us” chanting, protestor-merdering neo-nazis who supported him.

The UK already had the BBC; maybe this would make a good adjunct service the Beeb could offer? Sort of like the social media equivalent of iPlayer.

Every UK citizen can get an account.

• OpenLook
• OpenMotif
• OpenTransport on MacOS
• SCO OpenServer
• HP OpenMail
• HP OpenView

You couldn’t throw a ball without hitting something branded as “Open” in that era.

Does this represent a taxable benefit for Trump’s campaign?

Stable means different things in different contexts.

Debian being stable is like RHEL being stable. You’re not jury talking about “doesn’t crash”, you’re talking about APIS, behaviours, features and such being assured not to change.

That’s not necessarily a good thing for a general purpose desktop, but for an enterprise workstation or server, yes.

So it’s not so much that Debian would replace Fedora, it’s the Debian would replace RHEL or CentOS. For a Fedora equivalent, there’s Ubuntu and the like.

Debian Stable.

It’s always the answer to "what distro do I want to use when I care about stability and support-ability.

Reichstag fire moment.

I’d like to see them lose so badly that Sinn Fein has more representation.

Coincidentally, that’s what using it is like, too. :)
