At least later GTK fixed the whole file picker thing, though.
On another note, I sometimes get tired of "Please recommend a good laptop" posts - they're always just the same old advice: "I liked my Framework" or "Get a Thinkpad".
I kind of wonder if we could just have an annual mega-post for Linux hardware that gets pinned and mentioned in the server links. For example, "(Pinned) Linux Hardware 2025". Then we have a rule that you don't do hardware recommendation posts unless it's something extremely oddly specific, like "Best Linux hardware for a Pentium II build" or maybe even a question about people's experiences with VFIO on recent motherboard.
I mean, this might be a bit more your fault in this case, but I agree with the sentiment.
They're always changing something about the CSS sheets, and I find it a pain to develop for, granted it's been a few years since I last touched it, and on a very hobbyist level at that. I quickly switched to Qt for that project. Now I use wxWidgets, which I guess just uses GTK, but I like that I don't have to directly deal with GTK.
Un-cancel Lower Decks. 😉
Honestly, though, I feel like most media groups in general forget why the streaming model worked in the first place. They want Office-level hits, but forget that The Office wasn’t immediately successful. Not immediately killing it just because of that gave it time to find a fandom.
Most shows should automatically get 2-3 seasons, and they often aren’t getting that.
As for the whole “none of them knew what Star Trek was” anecdote - I find that a bit exaggerated. I’m a college student, and I wore a Boimler costume for Halloween- most could identify that I was something Star Trek. Around other people my age, they can at least think of Spock or Patrick Stewart.
How I got into Trek as a kid was my mom would be watching it, and she’d let us join even though we were supposed to be doing homework. TNG was the one I saw the most during that.
P.S: As I’ve floated around this forum several times, I think an animated anthology series of strange new crews would be awesome.
Admittedly, that irks me slightly just because of the shared name with the devices folder in root, but do what works for you.
I don’t know. You should make sure it doesn’t have a Realtek Wi-Fi card. Otherwise, it looks fine. I found the Linux Hardware report for it here: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=7144bb41
I think the price to performance doesn’t look the best, though. Maybe go for a Thinkpad instead?
The filter preview feature seems really nice!
Honestly, Inkscape is at the very least almost as good as Illustrator - call me deluded but I find more intuitive in many cases.
Now if only GIMP could actually have some money pumped into it and a sane UI… 😒
I almost had a panic attack until I realized this was for UBlock Origin Lite rather than the normal, manifest v2 version. Still mad at Mozilla,though.
For one, AI datasets often break copyright law, frequently appropriating from artists. Executives are also trying to use it to eliminate the jobs of artists, and I feel it’s wrong to try and obsolete something people love doing.
In addition, they take a lot of power, not helping in the way of the needed changes to follow climate goals.
Clarification: Copyright laws can be annoying, and I don’t always agree with them. However, it also protects smaller artists. I think there are many cases where piracy is totally fine, though, like if a company vaults an animated streaming show and gets rid of all other ways to watch it.
Also, the use of AI-generated images on their website.
I feel like what they did with Jerri Ryan was worse. At least for Deanna, it was in character.
Seven was a well-written character, but the wardrobe choices still infuriated me. That is probably one thing PIC got right.
I see Kevin Riley. I say the magic words:
IIIIIIIIII'LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL TAAAAKEE YOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOEEEEEMMMMM AAAAAGGGGGAAAAAIIIIINNNN KAAATHLEEEEEEEEEEEEN
Now, who's up for an Ensign or LJG Riley appearance in SNW?
