Gnome does the same, I use it all the time for "pin window always on top" Which windows still doesn't have, for some reason.

Responding to my own comment because I'm just thinking about this a little more. I think it's very much the reason why God/tradition "appoints the king/queen". - The age old tradition is larger than any individ

So is your comment boiling down to "change is good and so is keeping things unchanged" ? That are you trying to say? I'm not being facetious I'm just trying to get at what you responding to unless you are just responding

Most, if not all forms of government end up extremely badly. Society is just difficult to manage. The reasoning why it's bad is usually after the fact, no one willingly chooses the bad option. But yes, I agree with you that saying &quo

Is that acceptable for a potential death of millions? (Let's say) To use a cliche or overly simple examples, if no one can understand the importance of governance and economic coupling, then why not just try to make a Soviet union and

This is pretty strawman. You've got to broaden the mind a bit. "We need change to have silly hat day and every one needs to scream at noon., if you don't understand the need for this change, maybe try to understand it first b

That's a good way of putting it. A sort of black box process that has gone through something to end up the way it is.

Many people going to read this thread and think "yes, everything is completely backwards and nonsensical, I hate all forms of historical traditions and reasoning" I'm also making a comical absurdity just fyi. Do people like t

I posted this in a comment thread but I feel like it's worthy of its own. The biggest misconception about traditions is that "people just randomly decided to do it and punish those who don't follow." The most probable ca

There is two factors to this: 1. Less sex 2. Less moisture kept on the penis during sex. But I don't think permanently altering a baby's penis is worth the trade off of being able to have sex with people who suffer HIV. Maybe in A

FGM also can be just cutting some skin (the inner labia) and it is comparable to circumcision. The function of the inner labia is to help keep in moisture and lubricant, very much the exact same function and role of the foreskin.

I think there's a bit of a timeless, easy-to-convey meaning behind the image, which is what makes them memes. People like to treat 4chan like it's this obscure, underground, edgy hacker place. but it's really just a website l

Unfortunately the crontab englishfier doesn't do a great job of describing it, https://crontab.guru/#0_0_*/100,1-7_*_MON This is a nice hack, but readability has gone out the window and it's really just much

I thought it was "macOS subsystem, for Linux" and got excited before realising it's the other way around. What do Mac users get out of this? I thought most Linux things work reasonably well already

This sounds like over estimating a lot of restaurants ability to handle electronic menus. I don't think I've seen that functionality in many restaurants at all. There is always a cost in updating the menu.

I like e ink but this idea isn't doing it for me. Shopping labels are cheap and easy to print, and in a world where we're staying to pay attention to the environment, this looks like a step backwards. I also want to get a Hisense
