Scheiße! KDE Plasma 5.21 To Add Palette For Easier Input Of Accented Characters

phoronix Are you aware, that "Scheiße!" means "shit" in german?

Not sure why the title of the article starts with that.

"shit" can also be used in a positive way. "Shit bro, this stuff is good!!!"

I can accept you don't share my point about that not being the best word for an example. No harm done. Still strikes me as odd.

Just in combinations like "krasser Scheiß!" (would ~ translate it to "crazy shit"), but just "Scheiße" usually means a demotion. It’s pretty similar to English, actually.

I thought of such (and similar) combinations: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22s...st+das+geil%22

Yet a lot of younger people really use 'Scheiße' exactly in this sense.

What actually happened to the compose key? Is it still well-supported on KDE?

Nothing changed; it is still well-supported for people who want to use that functionality.

I also think the example word is quite misplaced and I wondered what's going on here with using that kind of words.

If you need something else, why not Me⃛täldötṥ or something that is not so offensive?

Heh, it jumped out at me, but it's not like something actually bad happened lol.

And Japanese still not working under KDE/Wayland (ibus or fctix...)

Nanana....."Schei*e sagt man nicht" hat meine Mutti immer geschimpft

"Scheiße sagt man nicht, Scheiße macht man".

Verdammte Scheiße, was zur hölle soll diese unnötige sensitivität.

'sensitivität' ? Wie wär's mit 'Idiosynkrasie'.
