I don't think it's fair to call GNOME unusable, even if I prefer it with Dash to Panel extension, or frankly, even though I prefer KDE Plasma.

Don't know but it's a shame. IIRC Qubes uses Xen, because Xen has a small Trusted Computing Base (TCB).

Look, I soured on GNOME when GNOME 3 was released. But it's unfair to call GNOME "flashy and experimental". Modern GNOME looks contemporary to its peers. GNOME 2, in contrast, would look very dated.

I am very happy to see them use a true FLOSS licence. However, it's a surprise to me, given Stable Diffusion is proprietary, using one of those "ethical" licences.

I don't understand the Glade problem. I thought both GTK+ 3 and GTK+ 4 had a GtkBuilder class which loads .ui files? And as for creating .ui files, Cambalache is a replacement for Glade?

This is useful context, however I wanted to make clear it was the 1911 Act that made the supremacy of the Commons; as you say it was further strengthened in 1949, by shortening the veto timescales. Labour's position changing from &#x27

Yes, but we were discussing the supremacy of the House of Commons.

Thanks, I'd completely forgotten about that. I'd still highly recommend Attended Sysupgrade... going forward.

by orra 4y ago
FYI, Attended Sysupgrade is pain free: no need to reinstall packages after flashing a new version.

Thanks for the detailed answer; it's important to understand temperature vs time. I presume you sometimes sous vide fish?

Yup, pretty sure all UK/European dishwashers pull from the cold tap. Modern energy efficient dishwashers only reach 50 °C. And they also take three or four hours, which makes this idea even less appetizing.

True, although for both C and C++, standards drafts are prepared on GitHub. At least for C (but I presume also for C++) you can check out a revision which is functionally equivalent to the ISO standard (but minus the branding).

There's a saying that if wholesale prices rises, retail prices quickly rise; if wholesale prices drop, suddenly there’s a disconnect.

Curious. This script[1] lists the blobs in your repo, which includes deleted files. It seems the deleted resources directory takes up 364MB. That isn't tiny, but it isn't supermassive either. I wonder if GitHub support would be he
