Best thing about christmas is the sweets IMO. I’ve been buying the stuff for a month already, a lot of it is way better than the usual stuff.

It’s certainly brown.
Pretty much, yes. It also used to be lighter in resource use than GNOME, though IDK if that’s still true. XFCE and LXQt are definitely lighter than both Gnome and Plasma, they are a lot more stable in the sense that they don’t change that much from release to release, and they play nice with third party window managers (e.g. tiling WMs).
“you jerk with your left hand” wow, such embarassing. What will the neighbors think??
Honestly I’d need to see them in the same position anyway. Angles can be wildly deceiving for arms.


Does it? OCR is still pretty bad, it’s definitely going to be more annoying than plaintext. It might be worth it, but that doesn’t really make it that much less of a pain in the ass to deal with. You might need to use symbols that aren’t alphanumeric (along the lines of QR codes) to make the conversion to plaintext more reliable. I don’t think we have something like that right now.


“also, fuck them kids”


What if you start sending encrypted letters and don’t write your name on it anywhere? Though that would definitely be annoying for the recipient.
Refund that trash.
I never updated my controller even once, and it never had any software issues whatsoever.
Literally can’t do the first one. What now?
I’d have to change desktop environments, because my current one only has “experimental” support in the latest version, and my distro is years behind, anyway. Your choices are pretty much KDE, Gnome or building your own desktop with a standalone window manager, and I don’t like any of those options.
I’ve used xbox 360 controllers forever, works great and doesn’t rely on batteries. And the cable is very long, will definitely solve your monitor issue.
And how often do you need to update a controller’s drivers?
I just don’t want to switch out my window manager and all the helper programs that make it work as a full desktop. Currently I just use LXQt+i3wm, and LXQt will take quite a while until it’s anywhere near feature parity with Wayland, and AFAIK i3wm doesn’t even have plans for a Wayland port (though I know that there’s decently similar tiling WMs for Wayland). I don’t think any of the oldschool low-resource-intensity desktop environments I’d consider using have a decently feature-complete Wayland port right now.
It’s possible that it’s not actually that much work to cobble together a new configuration with a Wayland-compatible tiling WM and a bunch of separate applications for screenshots, clipboard management etc., but I currently don’t care to find out.
Those mussel drawings are strangely realistic compared to the human.


Not the chancellor we need, but the one we deserve.


Oh yeah. It sucks trying to search for tips, solutions etc. when you only know the localized terms, and it’s rare that help resources in different languages are even somewhat useful and up-to-date.
Also, localized voice acting tends to be lame. For one reason or another they’re rarely as good as the original ones. Conversely, I found that German voice acting for games that were originally written in German can be quite good - it seems that localization just doesn’t have the same energy as the original.


I suppose I’m relatively spoiled as a German.
FAAMG or whatever they call themselves now) are now laying off massive amounts of workers to replace them with poorly implemented AI.
I do remember setting my webbrowser to English to avoid YouTube’s absurd automatic title translations, and that was before the LLM hype …
USA during WW2: concentration camp. Only for the Japanese, though, Germans were A-OK!
