Julia, since I used it for some projects this year but never for something “time critical” like AoC with a new problem each day. I really like that it’s simple like python but with strong typing. Originally I wanted to use Ocaml to learn it, but on day 1 I realised I don’t know how to do anything in it yet 😄.

I only have experience with Gnome out of the two but I haven’t had the urge to switch yet. I like the look of it (I like that it looks different to Windows), the simplicity and the customisation with extensions (only a few and small ones, I recently started using OpenBar for some customization but I could do without). I keep my system rather minimal and I am not looking to put a lot of time into theming or customization.

I also tried Cosmic and I like the tiling aspect of it, but I also don’t feel the need to switch. Maybe once it is released and I can figure out how to install it on Aeon.

If I remember correctly I got them from this collection on archive.org and honestly they are just really nice quality pictures. But probably also a bit of nostalgia. 😄

The cars are just too big and maybe also too fast for Monaco at the moment. Maybe in the future this will change again.

Or make the cars smaller again. They’re finally getting smaller in 2026 but in the long term they should aim for v10 era size cars IMO.

TIL there’s people thinking about stuff like this. Honestly a wallpaper is just some image that you chose to make your desktop nice to look at to me. I think I even used Windows XP wallpapers on Linux for some time.

Also only very little software comes preinstalled which does not apply to Silverblue for example if I remember correctly.

Hab ich auch erst vor kurzem gelernt, aber Firefox ist ein Name für den roten Panda, nicht für einen Fuchs. Aber ja das Logo sieht eher nach Fuchs aus.

Absolutely. If this rule was a permanent rule I don’t think so many people would defend it. However from experience (reddit for example) I think many people know that US politics has the ability to claim and overrun just about every space on the “western” internet. This is not something that really creates value for many people especially those that don’t live in the US and I think this ruling is trying to prevent that.

Instead of complaining can someone who dislikes this decision please just create a community like “AskLemmyUS”, post a link here so people can find it and get on with it?

What’s wrong about it though? The freedom lies in the ability to create your own community that is not regulated by one company/organisation owning the platform. You can go to the place where you agree with the rules and you don’t have to live under the rules of someone you don’t like.

By giving people the opportunity to host their own instances and create their own communities with rules they like. This however does not mean that everything should be allowed everywhere. Actually this means that everywhere you go people make their own rules and if you dont like them, go somewhere else or create your own community.

Why should it be slower?

The current red bull can livery is also nice but the name really sucks.

So Möbius band Dutch flag is allowed?

FOSS gives people the option to take the original code and create their own version of it in case they don’t like what the original maintainers are doing. With closed source you would be stuck and would have to look for something new.

It wasn’t a culture shock but it made something obvious that sometimes gets forgotten. The “Open” just means that one can look at the source code and copy it to make a new version. There is no obligation of the original creators to support things outside of what they want/can do.

That’s what I do too. Automatic updates for everything and if I don’t like the way something develops I look for alternatives. Those changes will most likely not be reverted anyway and I will certainly not keep using an older version of some software forever.
