Nice to see a symmetric controller for PC. As someone whose hands are mirror opposites of each other (they put my second left hand on backwards) I really appreciate such controllers.

> almost every classic console is easy to emulate Yes, but unless you have a library from back in the day classic console games are hard to find and/or expensive. Try finding a copy of Biker Mice From Mars, for example.

Without an ad blocker and JavaScript blocker the average website would be 100GB in size and take several years to load. If I really cared about tracking protection I would just not use the regular internet and stick to Gemini. CanvasBlocker

That's a funny thing to get hung up on, though I can understand it. I suppose that's the downside of some programming languages going with the worst assignment operator. If they didn't they could use = for (numerical) equalit

I'm already using CanvasBlocker, Decentraleyes, and the NoScript Security Suite; but getting more protections will be nice. Even if it may take a while for them to land in Waterfox.

GNOME settings? Where you need to use 3 different applications to change the settings (settings, tweaks, and dconf)? To be honest, it's been a while since I last tried GNOME, but I don't remember it being very convenient.

Pronounceable by *someone* or by you? Try getting together a native Cantonese speaker, Arabic speaker, and Inuktitut speaker and find a name all three of them can pronounce without noticeable issues.

The political spectrum isn't left to right, despite some places seeming that way. The political spectrum is both progressive to conservative and libertarian to authoritarian. Although that's a lie and it isn't as simple as th

The problem is that it's a bit tricky to type the intersection symbol (∩), because C ∩ C++ makes more sense.

OpenSUSE has traditionally done a bunch of work on making sure other software works well with KDE (for example patching Firefox to use the KDE file chooser). Much of that work is no longer needed with new tech like the XDG desktop portal st

The Edit menu has undo, cut, copy, and paste. Is that stuff that only makes sense if you're into Emacs already? The Help menu has the tutorial and the manual. Same question. The File menu has open file, save, save as, close, and quit.
