I'll probably die of dysentery. Just because I know modern hygiene rules doesn't mean I'll survive interacting with all the other people who don't but are used to local bacteria and viruses.

Only one of those is actually what I'd describe as "polo shirt and sweatpants" - first one isn't really wearing sweatpants (and doesn't have super hairy legs like many men) and the third one isn't wearing a polo shirt. And yeah, the look might work if you're fit and at least know how to pick clothes that match (color and fit) both with each other and with the way your body, hair etc. look. But the way you're describing yourself doesn't really sound like it.

OP seems to care about appearances a lot, they're just not good at it themselves.

Thanks, not sure where I got alt+tab from - I think ctrl+tab is actually the more common shortcut for tab switching nowadays.

I'm a programmer and I still use Kate mostly for notetaking and configuration editing. I tend to use other editors like VS Code when I'm doing more involved stuff.

At least where I live, it doesn't make sense to kill spiders at all. There literally is not a single local spider species that you might encounter at home that's even somewhat dangerous (AFAIK even in the wild there's only one, and even that one usually won't kill you). If there's something that's too gross for you, just pick it up with a glass and throw it out of the window (which is much easier with spiders than with flies). Spiders do kill flies and other critters that are annoying or even dangerous, so you definitely want the poison that kills flies but not spiders.

As a years-long Kate user, I'd assume the answer to most of those features is "no". It's still mostly a code editor, not an IDE.

Neat. I've been using kate as my standard text editor for years, mostly because of the session management and because you can give it a pretty minimalist interface with some configuration (something that similar editors like Geany tend to struggle with). I honestly didn't know that there was a searchable tab list, I've been using alt+tab ctrl+tab (which already has a much better UI than many other editors) but that definitely gets unwieldy when you have a ton of tabs open (which is always ... don't even ask how many browser tabs I have).

That really doesn't solve the problem, like every other Firefox fork they're completely dependent on Firefox. You can't just make a new webbrowser just like that, and while third party developers can certainly disable some anti-features, there are limits to that and they can definitely not do the basic work that the Firefox devs do (or could do, if Mozilla had different priorities).

Ideally it would be financed by user donations. Probably not that realistic for a project like this, though.

If THAT is what counts as "being treated like a dog", woof woof!

Considering how little they invest into their core product compared to all the other shit and how much money the top brass earns despite declining market share, I don't think they're hurting for money that much.

Unfortunately, Mozilla is investing a ton of money into AI, too.

Are bicycles cool? They're not bad like a loud motorcycle, but "cool"?

At that point you probably shouldn't drive a motorcycle. If you're only doing it because of money (fuel efficiency + vehicle price), there are quite a few cheap, small cars nowadays and even the flimsiest of those are still safer than a motorcycle. If you're just doing it because driving a motorcycle is fun, you're the problem.

The general issue is that it's actually pretty hard to drive a motorcycle quietly, because the motor kind of has to be small (necessitating high rpm to get to speed)(unless you're going for something expensive and impractical) and there's not an entire chassis around it to dampen the sound like in a car. If you don't insist on driving quietly and using one of the quieter types of motorcycles, you're pretty much guaranteed to be loud enough to be annoying.

Around here it's the boomers who are smoking cigarettes!

Part of it is that propaganda works. A lot of people are trying to make fascism happen and this type of content fits right in.

But also, there's a growing issue of men not knowing how to act around women, and there isn't much non-misogynist competition for Tate. It seems like for a lot of people (both men and women) it's harder to make personal connections these days than it used to be, and apps like Tinder exarcerbate the issue.

Scuba "Three Sided Shape". The album (Triangulation) is really cool, too!

Certain kinds of rightwingers. Some of them are quiet about it, but the loud ones are often extremely obnoxious and clearly think they're hot shit.
