Fully guilty of not even knowing there is one. I kinda just poked around installing DEs until I found one I liked.
It’s definitely the windows background for me though, gnome is just entirely different. Not saying it’s bad, but the people we’re trying to convince to switch usually have just as much of a windows (or sometimes mac) background, and often less willingness to learn.
I agree that 78°F is way too high to be a confortable sleeping temp, though being in a country where residential AC isn’t really a thing and inside temps at night often are higher than that in summer… you get used to it, it’ll just never be fun.
My ideal sleeping temp is like 15°C but even if I had AC that seems too wasteful so I’d probably settle for 18-20
I found gnome so unintuitive that i ended up switching to a different shell to uninstall it because I couldnt figure out how to close that app selection menu thing. (Though maybe I’m just bad at figuring out UX flows that are intuitive for most, seeing how I also despaired as my prof handed me his macbook for my thesis presentation and I didn’t manage to open the file, though tbf there I couldn’t even try to google it and was already nervous)
I’m sure it’s not hard once you know but any UX flow that isn’t already familiar can cause issues like that. Which is why KDE will feel much more friendly to the average windows user since it works the same way for the most part.
Idk man “exclusionary” is literally part of terf I don’t think there’s much ambiguity there. Fuck terfs though.
It’s less of a bias of the programmer and moreso a bias of data, particularly when a factor like gender or ethnicity correlates with something without direct causation, such as crime rates correlating with ethnicity largely because of immigrants being poorer on average, and economic standing being a major correlating factor. If your dataset doesn’t include that, any AI will just see “oh, people in group x are way more likely to commit crimes”. This can be prevented but it’s generally more of a risk of overlooking something than intentional data manipulation (not that that isn’t possible).
Definitely not typical in all of europe at least. Dominos here offers 25, 28, or 32cm diameter, and most other pizzas I’ve had, fast food or not, have always been in that range as well (though I can only speak for germany and the netherlands, haven’t had fast food pizza elsewhere and I don’t even really remember how big the pizza I had in italy 10 years ago was). 40cm is family size here (one local place used to have 50cm family pizzas, which are definitely 2 or even 1 slice per person territory).
So… if I insult you relentlessly you should then still treat me as if I haven’t?
One of the major draws of discord is the fact that they host the servers for you, for free. Anyone can make an account, click a button, and have a discord server.
Afaik matrix does allow this (haven’t used it personally) but it’s something where I am a bit worried about hosting costs if it reaches a large scale. (Also unsure about how the matrix protocol works precisely, but if defederation is a thing which I feel like it has to be, I can see it leading to huge pains since discords use case is often about being part of a specific communitu, as opposed to twitter or reddit. Being unable to join a groip or see some messsges because of federation issues would be a major headache).
Well, the real moment it becomes an issue is when a significant vulnerability is found after EOS. So I guess after EOS is when the sword of damocles starts hanging above every win 10 user…
Personally I’m on the edge of the ship just waiting to jump off once i have my new pc (probably next week).
That’s not a matter of being dumb, just that they never had a reason to question the difference. The proper way to answer that if you think there might be confusion is to recommend arch and note that they might just care about the DE, in which case there are simpler options. Otherwise you’re just being an ass.
Another thing that I hadn’t really thought about before reading another comment in this thread is that the arch wiki install guide (and other pages) are written with the assumption that you want to understand what you’re doing. And I think for many people that’s just not the case. Which is fair enough, not everyone enjoys tinkering with software. Just like I’m currently paying someone to build my new pc for me because I really don’t enjoy doing that. But there have been a few places within the arch install process where I had to research some background info to know what to optimally do for my use case instead of taking a guess and hoping it works out. And that’s quite a barrier, I see people struggle with similar things all the time at work. If any research is required beyond what your step by step guide is telling them, many people will give up.
Mein Kampf reads like a Trump speech if it was grammatically correct. Same level of coherence, or lack thereof.
If only this was true, but for some reason midnight is 12 am. And noon is 12 pm (I’m aware that the reason is that 12:00:00.00001 is in the second half of the day. I just think it should be called 0 pm).
Which is entirely seperate from having a grasp on how much money it is you’re borrowing and how hard it will be to pay back
Being scared isn’t really something you can control. So I think what matters is whether that affects how she treats men.
As someone who also is quite scared of strangers when no one is around, I mostly just avoid that situation to begin with. If that’s not possible or it’s just too severe, it’s definitely something where looking into professional help could help her, if it’s available. Though not listening to true crime podcasts would probably be a good start…
Because some things warrant my immediate attention, and most don’t. I am never interested in being contacted synchronously unless it’s something actually urgent. And because of that I can tell people that if they need me, they can call me and if I’m at all able I will answer immediately, otherwise I will probably answer later, aka whenever I happen to see it.
I have never seen “Darth” or anything similar used to mean dark in german. If that’s a thing it’s something both old and obcure.
