That went away with global menu, I'm afraid. In vanilla gnome every app handles it own menu however it likes, so this kind of integration is not possible. For all its flaws, Unity really tried to offer an unified desktop experience.

>why can't I easily make a shortcut in ubuntu? Blame GNOME 3. After a decade it's still lacking polish everywhere. The day Canonical decided to drop the ball on Unity was a sad day.

It has been clear for a long time that big tech companies do not care about customer support. It's something that just cannot be done without having personnel propositional to your userbase.

Facebook and Twitter have evident moderation (if maybe insufficient) working on removing or flagging such calls to violence. The argument of this case is not about whether there were user messages calling for execution of public figures, it

What Roller Coaster Tycoon brought to the table, and makes it shine even years later, is not the theme park simulation but rather what the title promises: the roller coasters. The game comes with quite complete roller coaster (and some othe

I'm actually a bit disappointed their next game is set in the Lovercraftian Amnesia universe. Before the SOMA released I considered the Penumbra series to be above Amnesia, despite the later being the one which gave them recognition, a

I do not see the point on linking to twitter instead of the official announcement[1]. Still, the fact this is a thing is interesting in itself. Their landlords are in a really dire situation right now but airbnb cannot give them free money,

Modern Paradox games (see Stellaris and Crusaders Kings 2) do support cross-platform multiplayer^. Maybe you are confusing them with Civilization V/VI, which did launch without cross-platform support and it is broken periodically due t

I think the major change was Steam and the Steam runtime rather than Proton, which solved the library fragmentation problem. Since then we have seen a considerable amount of same-day releases and native ports on Linux.

If by different financial center you mean a lot of banks leaving the UK, that is more a side effect of the UK leaving the custom union than a restriction from the EU. Banks don't like being unable to move their money.

It's only an international affair because the Chinese government has gone full paranoid and blame other countries because their people didn't like the bill. Anyway, massive demonstrations are usually newsworthy, like the Yellow Ve

For what I have understood, the issue is that the bill is a loophole in which they can essentially indict a individual with dubious charges until they fullfill the threshold, and then absorb him into mainland China, at which point he's
