Do you have some more background information why it is hard to replicate?

> Mozart I don't want to open old wounds but Mozart's nationality is debated and warrants its own long Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozart%27s_nationality

They won't let you walk inside the ship. At least not a year ago.

You cannot just get "cinematic" frames by using every fifth frame. The shutter speed at 120 fps is much higher than shooting film at 24 fps hence a lot less motion blur that is par…

Type annotations started with 3.5, 3.6 added type annotations for variables.

A friend of mine and I intend to do the same, for which I came up with this: https://github.com/matze/inkdrop

With XWayland there is no urgent need for conversion. And "a lot of applications that just wouldn't load" sounds pretty fishy to begin with.

Wow, such broad statements ("universally", "major", "unsuitable") in a single sentence and backed by …?

How would you qualify "better"? For me longer lines to read does not mean better but worse.

Are you also complaining about other parts of societal funding that does not benefit everyone? You could argue about so many things that might not affect you directly (schools, pol…

The organisational structure causes what you can watch where and I am arguing that garbage produced by the "Thirds" is not only dumped to Das Erste but shown elsewhere as well. You…

As written down below: to prevent the government from controlling the public television which they easily could if that fee was just another expense in the yearly tax spending budg…

I am talking about the fact that the ARD itself is the collective group of all regional broadcasters (look up the name) and any programme is produced either by one of the regional …

While these things feel like taxes they are not because they are not managed by the government. Taxes (no matter their labelled purpose) are pooled and spent according to the yearl…

> The trick is to watch the smaller "third programmes" or the programmes with special focus, not the big two (ARD and ZDF). To be fair, The Big One is actually just all "third prog…

Of course when working with Git it makes sense to think in changesets. But OP was specifically modelling the technical side starting with "We have files, which are inert objects …"…

While this sounds all nice it actually fails to model Git as it is. Git is an object database and its objects are blobs, trees and commits not diffs, so your premise is based on a …

While the toolkit certainly has an influence on all core apps that are part of GNOME, the shell is entirely independent of GTK. So, highly unlikely there will be a GNOME 4 any time…

No unfortunately not yet but of course I need that myself sooner or later. All my notes are tagged.
