On my phone I switched to Element X because Element would take up to a minute to sync messages. I’m willing to put up with the reduced feature set, as long as actual messages fucking arrive in time!

Would be a shame if your distro were to stop shipping X11…

Generally speaking, Plasma is pretty damn hot.

Isn’t that exactly what Israel did when they left the Gaza strip in 2005? That’s the thing that lead to Hamas taking over in the first place.

Where I live a one bedroom apartment starts at half a million dollars. A house is well past one and a half million USD. Guess I’m failing at step one: have an extra house.

To be fair, every single project regardless of proprietary or open source has a backlog like that. It’s just that open source projects show the backlog and don’t have marketing people telling what is and is not in the backlog.

No, it’s not part of Islamic history, it is part of Islamic theology.

Most Muslims are Sunni, and within Sunni Islam there are 4 schools of jurisprudence. All four of these schools have deemed it acceptable to marry a girl off as soon as she is born, and hand her over to her rapist when she turns 9 years old or bleeds.

While most Muslims are anti pedophilia, the Islamic sources and clerics are not. It is a huge problem where I’m from.

Thank you! I wasn’t aware of Plasma Drawer.

I love the design, but it seems in my machine there are zero animations (not even a fade in when opening it) is this intentional or something wrong with my setup? Not a deal breaker, but a bit jarring with how smooth the rest of the desktop is.

I’m a plasma user and I would also prefer a fullscreen start menu. Ideally a fullscreen krunner with all its amazing bells and whistles.

We each have to make the compromise that suits us best. I doubt most people think one desktop or another is perfect.

I’ve been using Konsole since switching to Linux with the KDE 4.0 release. Never felt the need to switch.

Only thing I wish it supported is Tmux control mode.

And crosses are just lines meeting at right angles. And purity rings are just small cylinders. We don’t ban any cylinder or lines meeting at right angles. You’re making a sad attempt at a slippery slope argument.

USB C didn’t exist, but it was being developed, and apple was on the USB-IF forum which developed it. So literally part of apple was developing USB-C while another part decided “nah, we will make our own” and of course it takes less time to make your own than to make something everyone agrees on.

Having written some XMPP code in xmpprs, I can assure you, XMPP is not the best.

With the bridges to other networks, you can pretty much talk to everyone from inside Matrix regardless of what they use.

Then again, the DMA should kick in next year, at that point big players like iMessage, Whatsapp and whoever else counts as big (so probably not Google Chat) will have to allow interoperability between everyone. So they are going to be forced to allow you to somehow massage someone from Whatsapp through Matrix and group chat with people in Instagram and Signal all at once. Matrix has been suggested as the backbone for this interpretability.

You can see evidence for God every time you boil yourself a bowl of spaghetti. He boiled for our sins, repent to the Flying Spaghetti Monster!

R’Amen

Isn’t Matrix the preferred instant messaging protocol for fediverse users?

For the same reason that I don’t use Reddit as a link aggregator.

Sorry, you need hardware.

If you are doing a ton of encoding, you could even get specialized hardware like amd alevo (spelling?) card which enables you to encode even AV1.

That being said, what are you doing that requires you to encode h.265 on ancient hardware?

We need u/fuckswithducks over here

It’s more durable, easier to clean, and the cable breaks instead of the port.

Citation on the durability claim?

I’ve been using USB-C since it was released, and none of them ever broke on me.
