does feel like Linux desktop environments like GNOME and Cinnamon got stuck in 2009 and never evolved past that

If you think desktops are way not shiny enough, you should see this hammer I have. I've had it for decades. It's old. It's still got the dumb wooden/metal layout that's been common for a century or 5. It has no clock, no Ai, no Bluetooth. It's a fucking relic.

Piece of stale shit, if you ask me.

And don't get me started on this staedler pencil I have.

So. You heat it up despite the pudding at the bottom?

others meet anyway just to shoot the shit

Hey now. Shooting the shit is how we test our mics before the meeting. If you can't make the pre-meeting, then suffer and never know whether your mic is shit.

You're gonna get a bike-splanation on that.

This is preposterous! It's a dangerous ruling! If this is truly how it's going to go, then people will start buying subs and throwing them at ice thugs every da......

I withdraw my comment and give back the rest of my time.

giving a murder equal say in his conviction at trial.

You guys don't allow the accused a defence?

It's funny that our college-like businesses are crutching on foreign students to stay afloat; and if they dry up a bit, people are pissed that they have to find a new way to keep education running as a for-profit business without the understanding that running as such is wrong.

Tax the rich. Run the schools. Go find a Viking nation and ask them how they managed since forever.

People who keep their kids inside but let their pets play in traffic are psychopaths.

I know what I said.

Yep. But owncloud went from old and idle to active again. It seems to be a more LTS take on it where NextCloud is your All Features Faster mandate.

Just show me the one that doesn't rely on containers, venvs, npm or other supply-chain risks.

I hate that this idea you should cast your vote after a positive ID is a bad idea just because the country doesn't issue ID cards for people who don't have a driver license.

I hate that I agree with someone like trump - broken watches - about confirmed ID for voters, and that the happiest countries also agree that ID is required to vote.

It's weird that somehow carrying a driver license or health card (gov issued with picture) is somehow an insurmountable obstacle.

But I get the opposition. We'd have to talk about the racism and classism that keeps people from voting otherwise, I guess.

JFK isn't on this chat, but I expect he'd have a comment.

 

Pay-wall link: https://globalnews.ca/news/9938774/air-canada-vomit-seat-passenger-apology/

Air Canada has apologized to customers who were allegedly escorted off a plane for refusing to sit in a chair covered with vomit for the duration of their over four-hour flight.

The airline issued a statement after a viral Facebook post claimed two as-yet unidentified female flyers were told there was nothing to be done about the visible vomit on their soiled seats.

Oh! AirCanada!

 

Okay, so what's with Gitlab and ServiceNow getting so fat on whitespace that they no longer fit in half a 1920x1200 screen properly?

What's the standard width that actual professional webdevs are building toward? Is there a standard, or like app dependendencies are they back to pre-y2k "moar moar nom nom" methodologies?
