@neglesaks@mstdn.io @purism Better than the Made-in-China one though?

@psychxr Good for y⚪️u

@dallin@fosstodon.org Shoobuntu!? Who says shoobuntu??

I'm not sure if I'm using too many #hashtags

@dallin@fosstodon.org They probably want to additionally keep their hardware looking fresh, modern, and in good condition, so the school users don't get a bad impression of Chromebooks.
Quite a way to do these. More money to #Google and less to the schools and users. Gee, I wish people were more considerate.

@allinone0@fosstodon.org I don't really keep track of it

I think about window decoration quite a bit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I wish the free desktop early on had standardized a way (did it?) for exporting the application's menus to the window system, along with (say) information about which menu items should appear as icons on the window decoration, thus gaining many advantages of both SSD and CSD. (4/4)

From a more philosophical point of view, window decoration is more of a system element – you mainly move, close, resize, maximize, minimize, and many other special things your system does, from it, so shouldn't it be part of the system rather than the applications? The #unixphilosophy comes to mind. (3/)

SSD has some nice advantages too; window managers can use it very well. Unity would merge the titlebar with the bar at the top of the screen when maximized and could merge the File-Edit-View-etc bar with the titlebar. SSD is much better at working with poorly/not responsive windows, too. (2/)

@gloopsies @TheEvilSkeleton Yeah, CSD does enable a lot of UI potential; putting widgets in the titlebar works great, and I think it so elegant when modern GTK apps change the titlebar depending on context. (1/)

@TheEvilSkeleton I'm still irked by how #GTK does title bars client-side though. Many environments use server-side title bars which can work differently, and GTK apps tend to look pretty chubby in i3 etc. :-/ Maybe GNOME and KDE don't compete how they used to, but as a power user this always seemed so wrong to me.
(I'm currently a #GNOME user btw. I might go back to sway though someday.)

@fssofdeath cool-retro-term? Looks great, I'll need to try that

And worrying about the company behind the product ending security updates. They always seem to end too soon

@RL_Dane Looking at pictures of old computers and playing with their software in emulators, I miss these machines I never had the privilege of using.
The lost days when computers were largely to-the-point and ethical... I hate having to worry about rights-violating engineering, updates, vulnerabilities and remote controlling. Ack!
