I love that he said this, the guy who thinks the media are all liars. What a buffoon.

Not op, but I would also trade a camera for a headphone jack if there were no other option. It's because I take on average one picture a month whereas I listen to dozens of hours of music in that same time period. So I guess we all have different priorities, and it would be nice if phone manufacturers didn't force unnecessary change on us.

But the aliens in Godzilla movies land in Japan before Godzilla shows up.

I can't think of time where I needed anything more than Mint for a desktop. It's been on at least one device in my house since 2010.

It's weird to not see any posts about Azure. I remember watching a keynote from Microsoft's CEO several years ago where he explicitly said the company's focus was on Azure and cloud applications, and that the role of Windows was simply to get you there. That's it. This is also inline with comments about Win7 being the last good OS because that's about when the transition started.

Holy cow, it's finally here. Not only that, I really like the way it looks in the layers panel. I thought they would just copy Krita filter layers, but this implementation seems smarter.

Not who you replied to, but I've been using DuckDuckGo for years knowing it's limitations and would occasionally use Google if I needed more specific search results, however, these days Google Search is about the same as DDG and (even as a fan) I have to admit DDG was never and is not a spectacular search engine. Honestly, the thing that surprises me most is that when I get inadequate results from DDG and try Google, the results are basically the same. Not a great look for Google.

This is what I do. Also, I mostly access reddit from a RSS feed so I don't even really visit the site much. I read everything I want in my feed reader, and maybe look at the comments on the site if a particular post looks interesting. Never logged in, never comment, never vote on a post.

It's great how Some More News is so consistent. I can only think of a few episodes where they seemed to be stretching for content on a topic.

I'm a new Kate convert. I had some issue on my system where GTK apps would break under Nvidia, something to do with font rendering. I tried Kate and was like "cool it works" and then I discovered how amazing and lightweight it is. Great editor.
