It makes sense to ask WHY this is hard. People can disagree endlessly on why. But a big part is, that antitrust/monopoly legislation has been almost completely dismantled and detoo…

I'm not sure you can blame the GNOME people for not trying. Personally, I feel like they are actively trying to make it worse, ie they are not passive. Their approach to file syste…

I concur, I would say evolution is more like "adaption" than improvement.

This reminds me of trying to use File Explorer in Windows 11. I wish I could turn all their electron-app "improvements" off, to make it useful again, like it once was.. Case in poi…

hmm, I have no iphone.

Apparently he did not belong to the social class who are allowed to do this.

I don't really think you like it, but maybe you will like this.

May the bridges I burn light the hills I die on.

They will not go back to anything resembling the old normal :-/. Trump & his cronies have obliterated the Overton Window so hard you cannot even tell which side of the house the wi…

Usually, I can easily tell bad AI slop, because it is just that - sloppy - the bullet points, the 'delving' and all that. But how can you tell this article was also AI-tainted? On …

traditionally, the chip goes on the shoulder, not the arm.

It really should have been called Pi-thon, though.

Though I did not follow the idea of chunkier fruit in those travel milkshakes, isn't that what clogs the straw, which is not ideal for a 1-hand treat.

It is a bit sad that people have to be taught this; I am presuming the product people are a kind of humans too. But when I see their outputs, maybe this Christensen guy is right. I…

Well, currently US _are_ ICE enthusiasts, lamentable as that may be.

currently learning 3d "solid" design with blender for 3dprinter. I am aware blender is not the fit a cad app would be ( ), but it 'works' if you are careful what you do (I am not).…

It is weird that the graphed increase grows steadily at presumably the same rate - there is no spike or bump or curve. I wonder if that indicates anything. Disregarding the shape o…
