Unlike Qt, which is a monolithic behemoth, software being GNOME usually doesn't mean a thing — it's not even that tightly integrated, it just means that UI is GTK-based, maybe with a few additional minor dependencies, which is fine by me. Again, that might turn out to not be true — there is software built in Vala.

Most of my computers use Void and the system is very minimal and I do my best to avoid getting Qt installed — my distaste for which comes back from the days when Qt software in general was more bloated and slow, I know that in comparison it might no longer be true, but it's a matter of habit.

@Hyolobrika
I'd choose that over any Qt software — to avoid building Qt, but damn… Flatpak? WTF that is?! How am I supposed to use that, why can't I just build it?
It's one of those moments: "Installation: just use our prebuilt container",— a container, how do I run that on my weird system, why can't I just build it and run in my system natively? 🤪

@Hyolobrika
Fractal claims to be one, I was just eyeing it: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/fractal
But as their recommended installation method is Flatpak, which is no go for me, I can neither confirm, nor deny it.
Among TUI ones, AFAIR, iamb allowed it — but there was on matrix.org server that made all the attachments encrypted and iamb didn't support that yet last time I checked. Maybe it was fixed already, but I'm not sure — you could still chat, but you could not see the images people send you.

@gabriel
Are displays with VGA inputs still common these days? 🤔

@waifu
Initially I was going to ask how are you supposed to get to an island by car, but surprisingly the video does address it 😂

@Hyolobrika
It was a rhetorical question… and a joke. Even in the series it's used as a rather awkward way to start a conversation with the main character who is supposed to be a total stranger to this girl, but in fact isn't — she's jealous over a girl she was into, who started dating the MC and she dislikes him initially, but in the end they become friends.
Don't waste your time following Russian politics, it's always safe to assume that it's fscked up 😅

@mischievoustomato @anemone
Some vote *against* the dems, not *for* him — that is also a thing and I don't even think it's that uncommon.

@inlovewithpda
I usually stay away from alternative bars and use the built in one and my status is just a shell script that outputs updated values twice a minute, using colour emojis for indicators, but… God damn it, waybar on this screenshot of yours indeed looks nice 🤩

@Hyolobrika
I'm rewatching Bakemonogatari at the moment and the antlers on your photo remind me of this mummified hand.
Okay, I wanted to post these two anyway because of "I want to hear your perspective on political situation in Russia" — is it as bad as it usually is? 😂

@lain @kaia
I think there might be also an underground casino there — I've seen it once in a Russian movie 🤫

Yep, it's indeed Radiohead — OK Computer actually!
I've never owned this record and only had it on CD-R — that's why I don't recongise the cover art 😀

@catmanmancat @supersid333 @MK2boogaloo @ColPeatGuano
Indeed! I was never an Android user, I don't recognise these things 😅

@epsi @kaia
How could they run out of Poles in Poland? It's no longer Polish People's Republic times anymore! 🤔

@newt
It's only good advice if you're already a sociopath. True — you can make the person be with you, but is it worth it if you have to do things you think are wrong and that you yourself don't enjoy to achieve that?
Goal being achieved with underhanded tactics always makes you feel hollow — a Pyrrhic victory 🤷

@djsumdog @RealRaul
Yeah, people have been following shitty advice long before AI, but true — this "shitty advice as a service" might speed things up quite a bit. At times I'm lead into the stupor by comments like "I've asked ChatGPT about it and this is what it told me" — like this shit is even worth considering 😅

@GGMcBG @DarthPutinKGB
Oh, long before it! In a way it was the US who have handed Russia over to Pooteen too — in the late 2000s and early 2010s when people in Russia were protesting and protesting still made sense, certain Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was doing her infamous "peregruzka" routine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_reset
I'm not shifting the blame away from Russians — we've certainly failed big time, but world's leaders have contributed too 😩

Pre-recorded? How dare you! So soulless and lacking personal touch! 😂
