This is the year of Firefox-on-the-desktop. I can feel it.

I’m a visual person so I need to put a face to these windowlickers to laugh at in my head.
Is it this guy?
Maybe a tooling manager like mise or asdf.
easily affected by true stories of evil like I am.
My brain starts playing La Mer (the Julio Iglesias version at the end of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy or What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong) when I read stories like that.
If you look at them up close, you can see that every time you cut on them with a sharp knife, lots of small micro plastic pieces are cut off.
Ugh, at this point I’m resigned to the fact that there’s always going to be something.
Notwithstanding their impressive feats for the time, Ancient Romans had lead pipes for example.
Today we have microplastics (and some lead issues still, too, from lead solder, etc.) Among other things.
Tomorrow, it’ll be something like nanites accumulating in our body, or gamma radiation exposure from faulty shielding in whatever spacecraft futurehumans are flying in.
like the taste of their feet.
snow crash, which talks about the decentralization of the internet from a fictional and futuristic story
I don’t remember it prominently featuring a plotline like that. That was the one with\
the nam shub or whatever? And hacking people’s brain’s with, basically, NLP?
Well if that counts, then Neuromancer by William Gibson fits in that it’s about\
removing DRM (“Turing Locks”) from AI—legit AI too, not the hallucinating parlor tricks of today. ::: 😏
Are you ok
I read this in George McFly’s voice, unoe?
There’s something very appropriate about you using all those (system) tools during an anthropology lecture.
Finally. What are all these people going to do now that the case is closed though?
The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet needs solving.
Yeah it’s not a one-to-one conversion of course. An update few months back allowed meta to open Overview on its own though, fwiw.
I’d still like the dock in the Overview too, like yourself, but for now I just have a launcher on the bottom like dash-to-dock.
I might get eviscerated for saying this, but you can replicate the GNOME workflow fairly well on KDE—KNOME if you will.
There’s an overview similar to that in GNOME, you can set up shortcuts to mimic the keyboard+one-app-one-workspace workflow, etc.
Good luck trying to recreate Plasma with GNOME though.
And when the company fails anyway because it’s too late to change course, the intern is an easy scapegoat!
You sound like management material!
When can you start?!
Can we just put all these nutballs in a big rocket and fire it in to the sun? Please?
Or another Titan submersible?
They’ve already got a track record going for this. 😏
Uh, just trying non-modal vim for the first time and… how do I quit it? I can’t :q.
I love the Linux world’s tradition of less serious names, in general.
Kinda like the Minds in Iain Banks’s Culture universe.
alongside Windows 11 23H2
Wasn’t there news of a Windows update breaking dual booting recently? Could be that?
