So you don't grok it. You understand it, but don't grok it. Respect the martian :)

But Linux is getting better each year (seriously, KDE is amazing, Gnome works well if you like it), made by hundreds of independent people, while Mac is getting worse, made by one focused company.

I've had no problem whatsoever with 2 laptops regarding power management or audio.

Get a major distro and major software if you don't want to wander into problems.


I agree, but it is there: perfect amount of sugar: 0, perfect milk-to-coffee ratio: 0 to 1.

What really gets on my nerves is the justified text...


My point is that it's not a personal amount, but an absolute constant.

If you need to mix other things with it, then the coffee isn't good.


Well, the idea of Linux was "a better minix" and "I’m doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won’t be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones".


The idea behind unix was a single user operating system. Hence the name.


As I thought: you can set a different shortcut for "Beginning of line" and it will work in Qt input fields but, sadly, not others. I don't know if this is the step you're on.


I'm not sure this is the reason or a big reason, but I think this is very difficult to do in Linux, sadly.

What makes Linux great is also its biggest handicap, in my opinion, when it comes to User Experience: the fragmentation of UI frameworks and libraries.

I imagine having this control between Qt, GTK and other UI libraries and electron-type-apps os difficult if not impossible.


It works perfectly on Gnome (ubuntu) though. There is simple toggle you have to do in one of the standard control panels as well.

I am surprised this issue is not gaining traction with the KDE crowd, as I imagine a substantial part of the userbase are emacs users and used to emacs keybindings.


Im not OP but i have a player for my kids which is basically the same. I do both. Sometimes I introduce songs and we talk about it, other times they hear something somewhere and ask me for it.


I agree. I would just like that they didn't have to exploit workers. It seems something that could be done. Have more people taking smaller or less frenetic shifts and pay them the same or more. It can be doable, seeing the amount of money Bezos amasses, right? I love the service but despise how the workers are treated. And nothing compares, there's no real competition.


The whole point of Amazon is to extract as much wealth as possible from everything and everyone except bezos. Thousands of people breaking themselves so he can go to space. Just like the olden robber barons.


My server is also unreachable: my website, my projects (which people use)... Because it's on some IP that Vercel uses.


This is great, but I see lots of ghosting and apparently low contrast. Sad to see no mention of it in the article.
