No, because the only defense for its existence is to protect the livelihoods of creators, and if we’re talking “should”, no one should have to justify their existence through labor.

From the comment thread it sounds like the contract might be on shaky ground. The original dev seems to be under the impression that a project licensed under GPLv3 can just be freely changed to another license, which it cannot without explicit consent from all contributors. We don’t know the contract language of course, but the dev said it would “likely” not remain open source, which indicates that he told them they could change it. ZippApps’ lawyers will hopefully notice that and refuse to buy, though either way we shouldn’t trust this maintainer again and should move to the forks.

I appreciate KDE for being a comprehensive toolbox that will let just about anyone craft the mouse-driven GUI of their dreams given enough time and effort. I appreciate GNOME for its bold and unified vision, which isn’t afraid to cull features or embrace innovation.

In what sense do you mean “faster” though? If you mean more performant, I haven’t experienced that – both desktops are extremely responsive.

No, genius, that’s a reason to ask for one.

omnibox is one of the biggest QOL improvements browsers ever got IMO. Frees up screen real estate and is very intuitive. If you don’t want to navigate to your domain-like search string just add a space and a comma or something similar.

This is terrible advice, most people don’t carry a knife because it’s just not necessary in everyday life. That quote was clearly written for young boys playing with other young boys: if I asked a buddy for his knife and he said “Where’s yours? Guess you’re not responsible enough for one” I would get a new friend before I got a new knife.

the absolute man-child energy coming off of the downvoters…

I don’t think there is another agreed upon name? Regardless the idea shouldn’t be attacked because it’s poorly named.

?

It wasn’t pseudoscience, it was just given a colonial-centric name that reinforces the view of uncontacted or even just aboriginal peoples as “savage” or “uncivilized”. The described phenomenon is a real thing.

Massage. I know that if I did it professionally it would become a chore and I would no longer want to massage the people I love.

Even if that specific hit was not IDF (AJ, whose video you’re referring to, have analyzed the footage and confirmed that the official IDF line is not accurate), Israel bombed a children’s hospital and the center of the largest refugee camp in the last few days.

Calling for the elimination of the state of Israel is not antisemitic. It’s a colonial enclave kept in existence by ongoing violence funded by the US.

The games are decent indie horror, the VR version is the most immersive and scary for obvious reasons, and the fact that all the games have you sitting stationary in a security booth makes it well suited for VR. I have no idea why there are like 7 games, as far as I can tell the gameplay is nearly identical for each title? I’ve only played a couple, and not for long, so I could be missing something, but it’s definitely not deserving of its massive popularity, it’s just a good format for going viral with streamers and thus zoomers. The lore is bad-campfire-story tier and feels like a circus handkerchief pulled out of the creator’s ass, so it doesn’t surprise me that the movie sucked.

Bruh I go to bed and wake up at the same time for two years and this still happens

The channel Horses showed up in my recommendations a couple months ago and I binged most of his upload history immediately. Extremely high effort video essays on a wide variety of interesting topics, with minimal fluff and sparse but gorgeous visuals.

“The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That’s the deal.” - C. S. Lewis

Inherent in any great joy is the eventual pain of its loss. Even if we were all immortal, everything changes, nothing gold can stay. Your options are to love and grieve, or to cauterize your emotions and go through life a grey husk.

Throwing in a third suggestion for BAR – out of all the TA spiritual successors, BAR is the only one that really gives me the feel of the OG game.

Sacrifice. Still one of the coolest and most unique games I’ve ever played, but severely limited by its late 90s tank controls and render distance. It would be amazing remade.

Don’t even dry them, just use a slow steady stream for the final rinse and just give them a few taps to get off the excess water.

The actual way is to use dish soap under running warm water (not hot apparently, it can damage some coatings I’ve learned in this thread). First rinse the lenses under a stream without touching them, to wash away any loose debris (which is the reason why you should never use any sort of cloth to wipe them, they just move the debris around which causes scratches). Then use a bit of dish soap on your (clean) fingers to gently rub each lens, which will get rid of any grease or other smears. Then a final rinse – for this one it’s best if you use a very slow and even stream as it gives you the fewest water spots, but as long as you don’t have super hard water it’ll be moot in a few minutes.

At least the second part, surely
