GUIs are tough in open source because they need way more than just code. You need UX designers, testers, feedback loops, and infrastructure — stuff most volunteer projects can’t su…

> Yes, we can. C++20 Modules are usable in a Linux + Clang environment. There are also examples showing that C++20 Modules are usable in a Windows environment with MSVC. I have not…

I'm using Wayland exclusively for 4 years now on Archlinux (may be more, I forget). At this point, it is better than X11. It still has bugs, but then so does X11. Fractional scalin…

Doctolib is not the problem at all. he real problem is the lack of government proactivity on these initiatives. If the government had already thought about this in advanced (even i…

NO!!!! They are in practice more about keeping the core OS very small and stable and putting all packages outside.

formatting on git diffs is a concept which should be embraced.

Wrong analogy. You have no idea how wrong you are. Just look at the difference in performance analysis tools for AMD and Nvidia for GPUs. Nvidia makes it simple for people to write…

That's Debian's fault I guess

Custom Nvidia network cards I guess.

Or simply open a business in Luxembourg. Done.

I was going to write a very snarky reply, but you seem much more experienced than me, so I thought about it a little bit. My point remains, but the snark goes away. And I'm in Germ…

In KDE, user can also override this.

They just need to give it some time. And out of window their liking other people will go.

Very cool Thanks!

Parker Vectors were cheap Parkers in my experience. They were like the 40 dollar nikes that you used to get. More money was spent in the brand than the quality. I got a Parker Sonn…

I'm right handed and used to smudge ink, don't ask me how. Only now, with my notebooks at 90 degree angle can I write properly without smudging.
