And I suggest understanding the context of thread on which you comment.

Never got the Mac trend of not using your full screen. I get even less why Gnome copied it.

You're right, you personally didn't, but thats the thread we're talking about right now.

Ok, but we're talking about GNOME here and you're saying that somehow GNOME copied Apple on this, but it really isn't the case. GNOME apps pretty much all do go full screen. And the paradigm for over a decade has been this way.

Perhaps, but it also hasn't been like that for like a whole ass decade.

Yeah I'm gonna disagree. I can't think of a "standard" app that doesn't full screen properly.

Ok but that's a skills issue on the part of the user, a PEBKAC. Not the fault of the environment.

Gnome pretty much works the same way as well

Sounds like a skills issue/design decision. Like the devs could do otherwise, they just didn't. There's nothing in GTK preventing this from working properly.

I'm not sure I understand... GTK can use full screens...

They made an incorrect assumption that some of us are correcting.

Even Gtk3 doesn't have that issue when properly coded.

Most of the reports I see about the police being awful seem to come from the US.

They made an incorrect assumption that some of us are correcting.

What's your issue exactly?

Yes that's the point. I'm replying to one one who thinks this is only an issue in the US.

The Dark History Of Saskatoon’s ‘Starlight Tours’ In Which Police Leave Indigenous People To Freeze To Death

Since at least 1976, [RCMP] police have picked up Indigenous men, women, and boys, then left them miles outside the city on sub-zero winter nights, leading to what’s known as the Saskatoon freezing deaths.

If only a party in the past had campaigned on that very issue. I'm sure if they hadn't delivered, we would never elect them again!

It matters because that missing minute is when he actually died. One minute he's alive, the next he's dead.

The video shows a totally different cell than the original news pictures yeah.

There's a ton of intricacies to it though, for example if you live in Canada you can't invest in one of the two retirement accounts without paying some pretty hefty fees. Those fees don't affect the rich who can easily pay it off, they only affect small times personal finance investing. Primary residence are only excluded for a relatively small amount (might be enough if you live in a small town, forget it if you live in a major metropolitan area past a small one bedroom condo), and the division with a partner isn't 50/50 like it is in Canada so your Canadian partner potentially looses a ton of money. Increases the cost of accountants and personal finance advisors by like three folds. Etc, etc...

I get that trying to get rich people to not use tax heavens is good. But this affects regular people who haven't lived in the country for years, decades, as well as their non American families.

I know this first hand, and second hand, as my immediate and extended family is all sort of cross border intertwined. It's a real pain in the ass.

Well there's and entire minute missing, and the video was released with Adobe Premiere metadata....

In China workers rights are pretty non-existent and there’s no OSHA equivalent, at least not to the degree we have in the US

How much maternity leave d'you get in the US? Cause in China it's a minimum of 90 days up to 180. And an extra 15~30 days of pat leave. Mandatory paid holiday? US: 0 China: 11. Sick leave? US: 0 China: months (at reduced rate). Vacation? US: 0, China: 1 to 3 weeks.

An employer that fails to allow an employee to take annual leave must pay that employee 300% of the employee’s daily wages for each unused vacation day

The work sfatey certainly remains an issue, like any developing country, but things are rapidly improving.

Things aren't all roses in China, but y'all have to get off of your high horse when you know fuck all other than bland ass propaganda.
