Username, as they say, checks out!

I haven't read the book, but their very informative website is where I learned that the purpose of a ninja is to flip out and kill everyone.

And for anyone who hates themselves, it looks like bastet is also available!

Autostarts are the one thing I'd point to too. It's nothing harmful but can be a little annoying if you need different scripts or tools to run on your different DEs.

I'll admit to thinking this too and being when I was a little bit older than 8, so you can feel better now.

People will try to tell you to add meat too, but nah, not on this one. Enjoy!

True and technically correct. I just tried to simplify it to "Know the plug? Metal? Count how many things you see on it."

Btw, what you're looking for is headphones with a "TRRS" (not TRS) jack/cable. Look for that in the specs, or find a photo of the plug and make sure it has exactly three (usually black) rings. (TRS will only have two.)

Chekhov's Browser

Right there with jalapeño.

I downvoted because this doesn't feel like a casual conversation, more like trying to start an argument.

You're too modest.

I thought of Joplin too. It lets you set an emoji for each folder and subfolder, but not for individual notes.

Also, depending on what OP means by "cloud," they can sync Joplin clients using a plain webdav server, even one that's just running on their LAN.

Even better when the singer "requests" it from their bandmate by name. (e.g. Honey Don't by The Beatles)

A great example of why I'd just about always prefer to get software packaged by my distro (Debian) over "straight from the developer" methods (including pip, npm, flatpak, etc.). I remember hearing about this and being like "Oh, that's bad, but it's not going to affect me."

Gaim.

GIMP and Mozilla Browser were a couple of my early ones as a Windows user, but I probably saw those as worse, or at least less polished, versions of other software. Gaim (later Pidgin) was the one that first made an impression on me.

AIM was important software — it basically was social media to me at the time — and I'd stumbled into using third-party add-ons (for example, DeadAIM) for the official AIM client to add extra features and block the in-app ad banner. But it was always a cat-and-mouse game where AOL would try to block add-ons and the developers would have to work around that.

Gaim was refreshingly immune to all that stuff... it simply didn't support ads, and all its advanced features were built-in. That it supported other messaging protocols was a nice surprise too, and to this day has soured me on siloed, proprietary messaging apps. The GTK UI also looked and felt a little exotic on Windows XP.

When I finally moved to Ubuntu, having apps like Gaim, Firefox and GIMP ready to go made things pretty comfy.

There's been a rash of these celebrity Milky Way encounters over the last few years… just check the internet.

They should implement karma on Lemmy, but just for you.

You can't just make up bands on Lemmy.
