    Someone installed the dashboard for us before the RBAC stuff was added. The fun started when we realized that the old ClusterRoleBinding needed to be deleted manually. Clicking SKI…

    When you visited, did you notice that the Milka you said is 100g here, isn't anymore? They even put it into the slogan: "Milka Alpenmilch. Für Mich – Für Dich 80g" This whole thing…

    Any info about how multiple fixes are integrated to approximate the true location of a fix? I remember reading how Wigle Wardriving calculated fixes and the method seemed unsophist…

    Well, I added backstory, which extended two years before this unnecessary public outrage event. People were asking questions about where the code went. I explained there was no cle…

    Olav, there were eight bugs filed and no explanation. I came back to the bugs irregularly to see wether there was anything new in terms of explanation. Then this trainwreck happene…

    From what I’ve read on another bug from 2011 ARGB Visual could also just stay on even without a compositor.

    I just looked at the bug again and it’s been sanitized. I commented 2 or 3 times in the linked bug to add backstory. Those comments are gone now. The attachment I added is still th…

    Only looking for explanations. Really super grateful that Jasper_ added some, but it’s still not entirely clear.

    I can’t see how Gsettings has anything to do with opacity and the compositor. Perhaps separating these things out in different commits would’ve been smarter to begin with.

    > but minds were changed. So what does it take to make the minds change back again? When I stare at opaque terminals all day I get severely perceptually understimulated to the poin…

    You have to use an advanced search to find NOTABUG, WONTFIX, and DUPLICATE and similar bugs. Otherwise you turn up empty. There’s even more discussion in the other bugs. For some r…

    There’s no gnome-terminal mailing list. Since "bike shedding" is struck down with regularity on the bug tracker I wrote the guy directly before he made the commits. I asked why he …

    By the way. Ubuntu was using transparent background by default [1]. So it’s fair to say that at bare minimum tens of thousands of people were using this code path. [1] https://bugz…

    You forgot to mention that the ARGB Visual type was working well enough for years, ever since xcompmgr was around, all trough compiz and GS. And the GS → metacity → GS cycle was no…
