Waterfox. It started out as a 64-bit build of Firefox for Windows, back when Mozilla didn’t offer that yet. These days, I believe, it just offers a few different defaults…

Sure, but as it happens with multiplayer games, you typically have a friend group that plays a certain game. Getting all of them to switch to another game can definitely be a problem.

Eh, it’s gonna depend on your taste in games. If competitive multiplayer games are your thing, then it is a problem. But sure, there’s lots of people who have zero interest in competitive multiplayer.

I believe, it mainly has to do with dark-theme screens quickly becoming illegible when there’s outside light sources. It just isn’t bright enough to overpower the glare from the sun and such.

That is genuinely one of the reasons why I use light theme. Like, have you see how bright the fucking sun is? My light-themed screen is still a joke compared to looking outside the window. So, I’m trying to help along my circadian rhythm by at least somewhat simulating the sun on my screen.

Where I live, the 4yo would get molested by a priest, and that would get covered up by the bishop. Which is also a pretty good reason to leave / not join the church.

Pretty sure that’s also how religions were historically…

I guess, maybe they thought in comparison to other churches?

But yeah, if there is only one church in the area, like there often is, then it’s a bit silly.

I always enjoy it when I post a silly joke and the first two people misunderstand it, and then the rest of humanity sees a negative number, so they don’t even give it the benefit of the doubt anymore and just toss their -1 into there for good measure.

Like, it’s sad that the post went to waste, but I don’t care how far into the negative it is. At that point, a large negative number just amuses me.

What I find most frustrating about this kind of incident is this:

There is fucking nothing that would prevent humanity from actually building a ‘smart’ bed. Something that gives you data and allows you to control heating etc. based on this data, without these features being a liability.
This would’ve been possible decades ago and technological advancements have made building reliable software easier ever since.

But unregulated capitalism means that instead of using this to actually build reliable software, it’s rather used to cut costs. You still get the same unreliable mess.
And the worst part is that this isn’t even in the interest of capitalism either. Sending shivers down the spine of any experts that hear about your smart device means that excitement among potential customers won’t be excessive either.

I’m not super deep into Flatpak, but is there such a thing as a “distro’s Flatpaks”? Normally, it uses central repositories like FlatHub, which are intentionally distro-independent.
A distro-specific repository would only make sense, if your distro maintainers are developing custom tooling…

It’s like flying on a broom. Perfectly logical.

Just connect a garden hose to where the mouthpiece would go. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Man, I looked at this too long, wondering who “9$$” is supposed to be and what a weirdo meme this is. Then I looked at the community this comes from and saw that it really is a weirdo meme.

A few years ago, we were working with Siemens at $DAYJOB and they sent two folks to us, Silvan and Sibel.

Then I tragically learned that their team lead is called Benjamin, which ruined that headcanon.

For what it’s worth, the dolphin face is a relatively recent addition. I wanna say three months tops.

Well, apparently that is a thing in Dolphin, but if what you actually want is e.g. to just move all .png files, then I prefer to use the Filter bar (Ctrl+i or the fourth entry in the hamburger menu). You can just type “.png” into it and then it hides all entries which don’t contain that substring.
