And when it comes to visual angle, good commercial font, like Cascadia Code, can look really nice, in both low and high resolution. Free ones are mixed bad though, I like Fira Code in high resolutions, but on my old ThinkPad T43 it looks disgusting.

@rl_dane
Emojis are indispensable to me, I rely on them heavily in TUI stuff — they make it possible to add visual anchors without relying on different fonts and colour.
I don't think I'm going back to bit mapped fonts though — my only reason for using them was — they looked good enough to be user in terminal and that made terminal emulators blazing fast, with the progress that was made the computing power got excessive IMO, so performance isn't an issue.

That's pretty impressive!
I think building data centres in colder regions might also be beneficial in terms of saving on cooling, especially in the long run. I think Russia could do the same by laying thick data lines to Siberia and building data centres there for the whole world to use, but alas… 😩

That "Be Happy!" in the corner is simply priceless though!
"You vil work at McDonalds or Walmart and be happy!" 😂

Do they really make military bases deep underground? I think Proton was claiming that they are using abandoned underground military facilities in one of the Nordic countries, but I've alway treated it as a marketing ploy, rather than real deal 😅

To me they aren't too different from tankies, have a slightly different taste when it comes to t-shirts maybe 🤷
They even took part in "protests" against supporting Ukraine — I've seen a few photos, it's quite funny 😆

Libertarians in Hayek's sense (so-called classic liberals) won't support GOP of course, but they've made a way so you can pretend you're one of the cool kids ("libertarian and shit") and still support GOP and came up with a name for it — paleolibertarian. LP in the United states indeed got taken over by this kind not that long ago.

The Johannesburg Police Department found that Sandy had cocaine toxicity — seems legit 😏

@lanodan @kirby
waf never gave me problems, it's what libmonome and associated libraries and tools use — but it looks fishy as fuck! 😅

@lanodan @kirby
You won' understand what it does, no matter how long you look at it — without reading the docs. I don't know why it got so popular TBH — it's probably good at handling most common cases on most common platform and it *makes it look* like there is no or little boilerplate code. And I've never seen artifacts included with releases — you still have to have CMake itself installed, it has to be of more or less recent version.

@lanodan @kirby
meson is as good as autotools, except it's python instead of m4. With both I can see why things break and fix it, would that be idiomatic? Not so sure. I don't get why people hate autotools — sure, it's lots of generated boilerplate code, but you can figure out what ti does just by looking at it. Unlike CMake — which is pure evil!

@lanodan @kirby
Meson still sucks though 😂

It was in the later stages of XP lifecycle so I doubt anyone was actually installing it, but they did exist and with those, XP looked very similar to the (mock) screenshot in the opening post. This Windows Live suite is the reason for this screenshot to not look that alien to me 😂

@cvtsi2sd @guenther @atom
I can definitely remember this "order prints online", there might've been other "tasks" like that — like I said, I never was an avid Windows user.
There also was this Windows Live Essentials thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Essentials which offered even tighter integration with online services.
XP didn't come preloaded with it, but AFAIR, it was offered via Windows Update among optional updates.

@cvtsi2sd @guenther @atom
Yes, it was definitely possible earlier, but I don't remember Windows older than XP coming preloaded with links to external services. This is what I'm talking about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Explorer#Task_pane
"…a set of "Picture tasks" is shown, offering the options to display these pictures as a slide show, to print them out, or to go online to order prints"

@gray @astrid
Took me time to realise that it's not the original, I didn't know this song 😅
Nice arrangement!

I use "Forget Me Not" extension in Firefox and I otherwise have cookies cleaned up on exit, so I only use private windows for one-off empty sessions and in private mode, I don't use uBO — to avoid figuring out what I have to allow to prevent the page I might need to open one time from breaking.
And I've just tried opening YouTube in private window — not only it shows ads, but it attempt to inject them EVERY FIVE seconds (!!!) 😱
I can't watch videos like this!

@McMongoose @kirby
Remove-AppxPackage is a pretty good one 😉
Followed by DISM /Online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage is that thing comes preinstalled.
