   I'm a little confused: does it have its own DE, or is it just a heavily modified Gnome?

   There already is something like it (though not Apple-exclusive): https://grumpy.website/

   There was indeed. Took a whole bunch of us on GitHub to make them finally add it.

   Oh yeah, and there already is (preact, for example). I'm not worried about losing front-end SPA libraries. If anything, I'm just annoyed at the endless greed of VC funded firms.

   That's one way to sell a open source project I guess. Not only did Vercel really fight to not have any mention on the React docs about using React _without_ Vercel, but downright to using wording to imply that if you do then you'r

   Yup, I've also gone with a console for all my gaming needs, and keep my computer as just a productivity machine. As a result I don't need nearly as beefy machine and don't need to grind my teeth in bitterness using Windows.

   Depends where you are, I guess. In a prison-first rehabilitation-last country like USA, yes. In EU, many countries will close your criminal record after some years (7 in Estonia) at which point nobody other than law enforcement itself can s

   If only we didn't have a metric boatload of Russian interference and sabotage in our countries that constantly blocks any efforts to get free from their dependence.

    This is a joke, right? Diplomacy is something Russians completely disregard, lie about, and only agree to do when they are the only one benefiting, and even then only until they decide to break whatever agreements were made, because they&#x

    I'm referring to NOT wanting AI in my code editor, nor any dialogs, sidebars, popups or ads of any kind for AI offerings.

    VSCode has started to aggressively force its AI slop stuff down my throat, which has turned me off from using it. JetBrains, thus far, is much less aggressive with its AI offerings. And while yes, everything can be turned off, just like all

    Punishes companies for not respecting people's settings. It's as if I chose to keep my chat history private in the settings, but they would ignore that and share all my chats with the world. Same problem. I find it odd you can&#x2

    But how would that work? Say I have software written that runs just fine, but has not been updated to the latest runtime of Python or Node (as per your example). Perhaps a dependency I use has a broken recent version, but the old version I

    Well here in Estonia we already are getting bunker test drills and flyers in our mailboxes on what to do in case of a bombing / nuclear attack. Sad thing is that since we don't really have any underground places, and Estonia is as

    Threading is done with the wave character ~ in Racket? I can't decide if I hate it or not (am used to Clojure's ->). I think my pinky finger doesn't like ~.

    Really the main reason KDE wins for me is the flawless fractional scaling support that no other distro comes even close to.

    Oh damn yeah that's a whole different thing. Can easily heat a room with it during winter.

    Well according to the Chat Control legislation proposal, politicians are, of course, exempt from monitoring.

    Yup, entirely gave up on AI as a result, and it didn't help that reviewing and fixing AI code made me incredibly bored to the point that if this somehow becomes the new norm of development, I'll have to find a new career, because

    I recall something about them trying to get SwiftUI working on Windows, which would've been a pretty big thing indeed. No idea if they ever did or how exactly they built the Windows UI in the end.

    I also switched to KDE, and man, not needing an online account to use a operating system, not having any ads or constant spyware sending every click and keystroke to some ad partner is absolutely amazing. Sad that to get a decent user exper

    Cargo-culting bs that you heard from somewhere and never bothered to fact check? Shame on you.

    Translation: plain-text/no security, as much telemetry as possible, and performance depends on how beefy of a computer you have, but it better be beefy.
