What now? GNOME doesn’t support server-side decorations? It’s been years since I last used GNOME, so I may be out of touch; but if this is true, what happens if you do run something on GNOME that simply doesn’t have any code that draws its own titlebars? Or am I misunderstanding how any of this works?
I sometimes do that too, but as it’s not a thing on Windows (which I’m forced to use at work), it’s not my default habit.
Not a new debate at all… https://xkcd.com/1914/ and the context for that was https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/twitter-suspends-verifying-accounts-giving-154625015.html
I agree that if “verification” is going to be a thing, it should only mean the person or organization is who they claim to be, not imply endorsement of any of their activities.
At least that way we’ll be able to tell when things are AI-generated.
of course, most of school was bullshit long before AI, so what
That’s not what I asked. I asked about a comparison of both of them to PostgreSQL.
Are there real advantages to using either MySQL or MariaDB instead of PostgreSQL?
I don’t own a car, but I suppose taking one single train to work (when I don’t work from home) isn’t very much exercise either.
Almost not at all tbh
cannot confirm, there has never been a time in my life when I was able to fall asleep easily when I should, not in my childhood, not teenage years, nor more recently :(
That’s just a link to the image hosted on xkcd.com, so if that is still pixelated, it’s probably a caching issue.
By “the post” what do you mean? The one in my comment is obviously the pixelated one, I am going to keep it that way for future documentation; the one on xkcd.com has however been fixed.
How can a function like this exist without parameters for N and T?
ReactOS is mentioned in the article, it’s a somewhat different approach.
ok, I have to address the elephant in the room: is the bad image quality intentional (part of the joke) or not or what is going on here?
in case it gets fixed, here it is right now:
TIL that there is a 2x size version of many xkcd comics, which the explainxkcd bot seems to have downloaded and which looks a lot better: https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/File:superstition_2x.png / https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/superstition_2x.png
edit (c. 9 hours later, the morning after in my timezone): ok, it seems it has been fixed, so it was apparently not intentional
wot? I thought compiz was fairly well known but maybe I haven’t kept up with what is or isn’t well known nowadays, been using Linux for too long :D

It’s a thing some people occasionally do. By itself it’s neither a good idea nor bad idea, but people have certainly been confused by it before. It’s better to use software for its actually intended purpose, that is less confusing both for oneself and everyone else.
I have long found it more useful what the middle mouse button does on Windows (start scrolling) and hope that becomes widely adopted, even outside browsers, on Linux one day too. Good step in that direction.
now that is truly idiotic
I don’t mind apps drawing their own titlebars if they have a real use for it (I’m typing this comment in a Firefox window where the titlebar has the tab bar in it), but not having any window-manager-level title bar as a fallback at all and requiring apps to do that themselves?! Window managers everywhere else have been doing this since what, the 1984 Apple Macintosh?
