  • Sun was such a useful contributor to the ecosystem and they fucking trashed absolutely everything. It's a miracle that so much stuff could be saved.

  • Don't let people suck your drink, it's not hygienic.

  • I'm pretty sure that you could use "Java for dummies" as a book for swearing if you wanted to. It's the swearing that matter, not the hand rest.

  • But there is a medical reason! It's to make masturbation bothersome. It would really upset the humors you know.

  • You're having a space characters infestation, you should do something about that.

  • I used Apple with an Apple 2, then once bought an Apple laptop just before they switched to intel cpus as an experiment. For reference I had already been running Linux for years at the time, so that was a test. It lasted three or four months before I ran back to Kde, couldn't stand how rigid, awkward and closed the interface was. As an aside, it was pretty much impossible to extract my data from their "photos" app. They renamed everything and dumed it in a maze of illegible directories.
    That was my last contact with Apple.

    Even Microsoft felt more user friendly to me.

  • He did it specifically to *make coffee faster.

    That's why he gave it that name. And not the supremo or whatever. It was the quick coffee machine.

  • My SO recently bought a laptop designed for (and subsequently sold with) windows 11 and I can't believe how utterly broken that system feels. It really feels like you're running an alpha. The system interface completely lacks coherence.

    (For context I've been running linux for several decades)

  • Oh Switzerland, you're so silly.

  • Now imagine trying to read the bios settings on the screen, or plugging in an hdmi cable.

  • The thing is, there was a (twisted, yes, but actually there) logic to what the Reich did. What the US does appears to be fairly random as they change their mind every other week, and their rants rarely, if ever, make any sense.

  • Obviously it was Denmark. Did you even see how it dressed Greenland? What did it expect?

  • Bose innovates again by creating "open source" without source, and while keeping everything closed!

  • But that kind of user typically won't want to because it's much too scary.

    Of course it's trivial to install Linux, you just have to click "next" five times or so.

  • That's the rational answer. Replace a thing when it's no longer fit for its purpose, typically because it's broken.

  • You're much more optimistic than I am. Maybe I've spent too much time with users who are usually scared of clicking on an unknown button, because after all, who knows what could happen if they click on "ok"?

  • Iceland is also the only producer of bananas in the arctic.

  • We have something similar, it's not half a metre though, more like twenty centimetres. The reason being that it must allow for the cleaning of the gutter. It's not really enforced though.

  • AskUSA @discuss.online

    Loony religions in the US and consequences.

    Is there a way to fix scrollbars in Plasma 6
