From what I remember, that's how the Commodore Amiga works and why it has that support for having two things displayed, one as a pull-down tray from the...

Unfortunately, it's too much hassle. I already have enough trouble allocating sufficient human time to improve and maintain my setup, and, as the startup...

I also have a long-lived desktop. Partly for similar reasons, but partly because:

1. I use my PC as my music player to fall asleep to, and my alarm clock
2. I

I don't want to copy-paste them in their entirety, but take a look at this post and this post on the Rust users forum....

Assuming there are any suitable themes left after the APIs were so unstable for so long that so many theme developers gave up....

Basically, GTK+ 4.x breaks API for the same reason that Qt breaks API in going from QWidget to Qt Quick (yes, they do eventually plan to expose Qt Quick...

I stand corrected. Thanks....

Well, there's the end of GNU Guix's utility. It already took long enough to get things like GOG.com supporting glibc on top of Linux.

DP is a packetized protocol like USB, Ethernet, or PCI-Express, which is why, from the beginning, you've seen people offering things like active hubs...

I actually intended that as a rhetorical question based on how many web applications I've seen which build homegrown instrumentation around the Google...

To be honest, I'm kind of...

You probably chose the best match for what you're trying to accomplish.

You won't find a "so long as they don't charge money for it"...

Exactly the principle that leads me to see you as the clueless one. I never said you were speaking nonsense. I said your arguments are based on flawed...

My mistake. Still, that multiplies the compilation time and storage space on Red Hat's end every time they update a package, rather than just discussing...

Let's assume that companies were willing to run "Gentoo, but with a Red Hat support contract behind it", including all the "wait for it...

Given what I've seen you posting in other threads, you have a much stronger claim to not having a clue than he does.

For example,

And I thought it was pretty clear from what he wrote that he meant that the semantics of new features (as implemented in the C++ frontend) are intimately...

...actually, would you mind adding a license? As-is, GitHub's Terms of Service grants a license for me to look at it but not really do anything else,...

Thanks though I'll have to say "to each his own" there. Personally, I found it much less effort to maintain a Python program than a comparably...
