  • None. Currently I'm still on Windows, but I'm planning on switching to either PopOS or Mint when Win10 EOL comes around, at the latest.

    And I figure it's never too soon to learn things. The way I see it is, whether I switch six months from now or six hours, the more I learn now, the easier I'll have it when I end up actually switching. :)

  • Ugh. Requiring your users enable light mode to look at an image is just cruel and unusual punishment...

  • How does one check what kernal one has? Does the kernal vary by distro? How does one update it?

    Not OP, just a Linux newb trying to learn, if you don't mind explaining that is. :_

  • A lot of it comes down to the fact that many CSD apps, due to how CSD itself works, don't respect desktop themes such as that which GNOME has, and due to using popover menus as opposed to traditional menus also don't provide proper context menus.

  • Due to the very nature of CSD itself, CSD apps often don't respect desktop themes. It also, unless designed to compensate, oftentimes does not provide proper context menus due to its use of popover menus.

    Not as much of a problem on phones or tablets as unified themes across apps aren't really used as often on those platforms, but it's a problem that happens a lot on desktop, for example on GNOME.

  • I have a love-hate relationship with GTK: on one hand, it's aesthetically pleasing to me; on the other hand, CLIENT-SIDE DECORATIONS CAN KISS MY ASS.

  • Darn, guess that ruins my plans for creating a community dedicated to Trekky vegan communist porn...

  • Because for centuries, western society has valued one thing above pretty all else: winning.

    If someone's an asshole, but they've gotten on top in something, people may say, "They're an asshole, but hey you gotta admire that they're so good at [insert subject]."

    That's why so many people admire Ray Kroc. Yeah, so what if he brought McDonald's to a position of national and international dominance? That doesn't mean he's worthy of our respect. If anything, the way he rose to the top, being as disgusting as it was, should mean he's anything but worthy of our respect.

    Victory in something by itself shouldn't be respected; what you do to get to victory matters equally as much, if not more.

  • Damn. After all these years? He just can't get a break.

    Rip.
