What’s the problem?

spider ,

I think Plasma is the default desktop environment now, but I still use Trinity because it was the only DE in older versions and I’m so used to it.

spider ,

The developers are quite active in the forum, too, and often reply to posts there.

spider ,

The idea is to make the transition from Windows to Linux easier.

However, you can change things around to make the DE look completely different from Windows.

    He first taunted people some days ago by essentially admitting to having kompromat on most users

    I’ve sometimes wondered whether spez has kompromat on Reddit’s owners; it’s hard to imagine a CEO in his position not getting sacked after what happened last summer.

    What is he, trying to make musk look smart?

    He has actually expressed admiration for Musk, after the Twitter takeover.

    Netanyahu vows to defy Biden’s ‘red line’ on Rafah (www.politico.eu)

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he intends to press ahead with an invasion of the city of Rafah on the southern border of the Gaza Strip in defiance of United States President Joe Biden, who has warned such an offensive would be a “red line.”...

    Sounds familiar:

    Ten years after Ghouta, Mr Obama’s red line over Syria is remembered as a defining moment of his presidency. Rather than strike immediately, he first decided to ask for a vote in Congress and then agreed not to act at all if Russia stepped in to oversee Syria’s chemical disarmament. Critics argue that Mr Obama’s reluctance to punish Mr Assad diminished America’s credibility and that the consequences are still being felt even now.

    It would be the absolute worst thing he could do.

    Yeah definitely sue this guy

    Sounds good, but won’t affect him personally, since taxpayers would be left holding the bag (as usual).

    They’d be sued personally as private citizens.

    It would be great if they were held personally accountable, but I wouldn’t be surprised if what usually happens, happens again.

    From November:

    Amid widespread condemnation about Israel’s targeting of the hospital, CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour asked Barak if the IDF and the Israeli government had done a “good enough job of proving their claim” that there was a “major” Hamas command center and bunker under Shifa.

    Barak replied “It’s already been known for many years that they have a bunker that originally was built by Israeli constructors underneath Shifa,” which was used as a “command post” for Hamas and as a “junction of several tunnels”

    “When you say it was built by Israeli engineers, did you misspeak?” asked Amanpour.

    Barak, who was Israel’s prime minister from 1999 to 2001, responded, “decades ago, we were running the place, so we helped them.” The Gaza Strip has been controlled by Hamas since 2007.

    “It was many decades ago…that we helped them build these bunkers in order to enable more space for the operation of the hospital within the very limited size of these compounds.”

    Calling themselves election investigators, the activists have pressed local officials in Michigan, Nevada and Georgia to drop voters from the rolls en masse. They have at times targeted Democratic areas, relying on new data programs and novel legal theories to justify their push.

    Joe Biden’s disapproval rating reaches new high, according to new poll (www.theguardian.com)

    The survey found that just one in four voters (24%) think the country is moving in the right direction – a key question in the run-up to a national election – and more than twice as many voters said that Biden’s policies had personally hurt them than those who said they had helped....

    Why do I suspect if they were asked which, they would all name things completely out of Biden’s control?

    Speaking of which, as much as I couldn’t stand George W. Bush, the financial collapse that happened on his watch was more or less the direct result of Bill Clinton repealing the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999.

    Conservatives Plan to Ban Abortion and Cut LGBT Rights

    There’s a problem with this headline.

    If they f**k with long-established law like this, they’re not “conservatives”.

    Conservative doesn’t mean they don’t want to change things, that’s an intentional misconception.

    Indeed; they are the masters of Orwellian doublespeak.

    In Canada, his clinic of four doctors had one person working part-time doing the billing to our government health insurance.

    This needs context. Was his clinic in Canada understaffed, or did Canadian health insurance paperwork require considerably less time to process?
