It's just a shortening of "mathematics". You don't call it "mathematic" do you?

They're risking another January-like protest if they don't stabilise their economy.

I didn't take your message to mean you need Plasma specifically, I interpreted it as you needing some library from KDE.

To be extremely pedantic, I never said it was a Qt theme :P I said that Qt has a GTK theme. It doesn't, but KDE does have a GTK theme.

No air war has ever tried to change a regime. The fact of the matter is, we don't know what will happen next. There could very well be a civil war.

For all intents and purposes, they have been a nuclear state for 30 years.

That's far too hyperbolic. Abject failures don't lead to state or power collapse. Look at how many wars the Romans lost, and far more catastrophically too.

With Iran's hyperinflation, why wouldn't USD make sense?

Lebanon has also said that the ceasefire doesn't apply to Hezbollah, since they insist that both them and Israel are at war with Hezbollah, not with each other. The only parties that say it does are Hezbollah and Pakistan. Also, I real

No, it means that people have requirements that Linux does not fulfill. I need the Office suite, and would rather not gamble with the various compatibility promises made by alternatives.

I was thinking of breeze-gtk[0] but that's KDE-specific. [0]: https://github.com/KDE/breeze-gtk

So is coreutils a honeypot?

Why would you need KDE to use Qt? And IIRC Qt has a GTK theme nowadays that makes it look not terrible (high praise, I know).

This is why I have always been leery of C# and continued using Java instead. C#s development has always seemed very haphazard and kitchen sink mentality to me.

According to further up the thread, you can if you disable secureboot.

I'm certainly no chef, and am only somewhat familiar with one particular side of chemistry (physical chemistry) but I don't see how it would be useful in cooking. Unless you count boiling water as chemistry.

No, all sides in that war (it kicked off the Cambodian civil war, so there were a lot of sides) used landmines.

This is becoming more and more common. I recently read an article about the male genetic material's influence on pregnancy complications and it included a similar blurb about women's rights and colonialism (don't ask me how t

I was going to ask how we know if the dice are intentionally uneven, as opposed to it being a result of technological, cost, or time constraints.

I don't, when the much more likely answer is that it came from the more than a millenia old gambling practices of Europe.

Good thing that the article contains that warning, then.

That seems like a very nonsensical stance.

It's not forced, especially for normal software, you just get a popup. It's a bit of a pain to disable the requirement for drivers, though.

I thought community projects (as opposed to the corporate Fedora and Ubuntu) are exempt from such laws.

On the source code side, I quite like the way Guix does things, i.e. needing every commit to be gpg-signed. They even have a handy tool for verifying the repo[0] but I'm not sure how viable this is for non-OSS projects. [0]: https:&#x

The main problem with biological and chemical weapons isn't their effectiveness (or lack thereof), but the impossibility of controlling them.
