I do not understand why you need gnome-tweaks to set Legacy Applications to use Adwaita-dark when the Style has been set to Dark in the settings of Gnome. I don't think anyone appreciates the inconsistent titlebars between, eg. Gedit and the Terminal

    @siosm I'd rather debug first before raising an alarm. The more info the merrier....

    People who drop their kid off at the school drive reckless in the neighborhood. Seeing me and claiming I drove fast. I went straight with a green light for bikes, while he turns right at a light that was still red.

    @joy he has a memento on his car now. Hope he will be more careful next time.

    Also do not need to keep my cool for such people. I tried to be reasonable but when saying I went too fast you got me. Scooter has a new plate and new regulations. It can't go fast at all... If he hits me he would also hit a bicycle.

    @bitpirate yep... while being one of my favourite childhood series, I found this rather annoying. Especially as Patrick Stewart sounded almost as 'unenthusiastic'. Something in his voice annoyed me most of the time.

    The last 10 minutes (minus poker ;-) of season 3 is what should have been the whole show ;-)

    Applets... all... over... again ;-)

    WASM / WASI has a place, but saying it like "docker wouldn't have happened" is foregoing the issue with recompilation/e-engineering that java (and even flash/director) entails

    The AQI is 89!! Way above healthy limits and these people decide to have a picnic!

    Please send us in Alberta some rain and common sense!! #abWildfires

    @gbraad@mastodon.social avatar

    @dansup A value of 89 is not everywhere.. it is a scale that merely should be used for indication. It should not dictate your life.

    ... It might eventually catch up with you, but that is a difference afferent story.

    Using Lynx.emu to play Atari #lynx games on my Playstation phone and other old devices.

    The Lynx always felt like a portable #Amiga, which is partially true due to RJ MIcal and Dave Needle
