A small, simple subset of git? You generally don't need all the esoteric stuff people complain about day-to-day. Pretty much what is listed in the OP cheat sheet.

It works perfectly fine even on the Google android app that is unaffected by uBlock. I always hear people complain about search results but I can't remember the last time I even had to scroll down when searching. I do usually mostly se

That's why I clarified using "generally popular". I mean more like "keeping with today's mores", which is admittedly a moving target in the long term.

But mostly bad. People paying for good (or more specifically, something generally popular) don't need to hide what they're doing, as a general rule.

I've read articles and watched a few YouTube videos about electric mining trucks that are already in use in Australia, Canada, and other places.

Why are you directing a correction at LLMs? Honestly curious.

AGI being "just an engineering challenge" implies that it is conceptually solved, and we need only figure out how to build it economically. It most definitely is not.

I think Asian societies have a higher collectivist "the collective over the individual" culture than others, and their populations are the fastest declining currently.

Well, this is a massively horrifying possibility.

It doesn't have to be 100% one or the other.

Going to the library means you pick what you want to read from a much wider variety of available books, not just the ones the adults in your life deemed worthy of purchase.

Feels like this is a pointless techy solution to problems already solved by Velcro. I don't have kids, am I wrong?

Here's a global gridded data set: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/insitu-gr... from which you can easily extract ocean temperature data from 1750 onwards, including links to documentation o

Building out technology that we already have can save us. We just need to agree to pay for it, which we can't because some of us are too poor to make changes required, some of us are apathetic, some of us are actively antagonistic (thi

The main issue is the actual effect of your actions. One person living as energy-frugally as possible may make them feel good, but ultimately it's pointless unless another couple of billion people join you, and sadly, many of us are

There are large-effect changes that can be made industry-wide (reducing the carbon intensity of power grids for example) that can be done before we start asking people to change fundamental aspects of their culture like diet. These efforts

Seems to me that all this capacity being added hasn't reduced traffic to any meaningful degree. It may be time to try reducing the cars on the road by providing alternative means of getting around instead.

Ooh yeah. One more lane will fix it. One more lane, one more road, and all your traffic woes will end.

Seems obvious that people have to be at a place to do things there.

It literally has an activities button, the time and date, and a tiny button for interacting with settings on the right.

What widgets? Gnome has just the one black bar at the top.

Because their choices are better, at least for some of us. Users who prefer the traditional desktop paradigm have a wealth of alternative DEs to choose from.

by abenga 2y ago
Gnome is always getting better (if you want to do things the Gnome way). Why should a DE show any elements begging to be clicked on my desktop while I am working (window list, etc)? I am only interested in what's in my IDE, terminal, a
