KDE has the newer QML-based Kirigami and older Qt Widgets frameworks that are not consistent. Widgets apps absolutely look like actual desktop apps (menus, toolbars, dialogs), Kirigami apps look like mobile apps (nav…
1. The UK and EU are rather large markets that they don’t want to miss out on. 2. There are software engineers in the UK and EU. 3. This specific implementation by Apple is not actually required by any UK or EU law, to…
Because some of us actually enjoy programming. For some people those side projects aren't about the destination, but the journey of learning how something works by making it with your bare hands.
It’s funny because the first AI scraper I remember blocking was from OpenAI’s, as it got stuck in a loop somehow and was impacting the performance of a wiki I run. All to violate every clause of the CC BY-NC-SA license…
Go play the original Quake (not QuakeWorld) online and you will soon realise why games realised that concept was flawed as soon as it was implemented. It works fine for LAN but as soon as the connection is further than…
Mercurial has no distinction between a bare repo and a non-bare repo: any repo can have a working copy or not. You can check out a working copy with `hg update somerevision`, or get rid of it with `hg update null`. You…
Perhaps they could ask Copilot to help them get IPv6 working.

> It just works without any faffing around as Windows, MacOS, etc has done since the mid 1990's. Unless you like your applications to save your window positions. I like Firefox to be on my left monitor, and if I use…
The topics[0] feature in the evolution extension is probably even closer to Git branches, since they are completely mutable and needn't be a permanent part of your repo. Bookmarks are just pointers to changesets, and…
Modern Mercurial with evolution is extremely pleasant, and the more I use it the more I abhor git whenever I have to go back to it. That plus Heptapod (fork of GitLab with Mercurial support) — it’s very nice indeed. I…

I decided to just stay with Firefox and disable any rubbish that Mozilla adds as it comes. I tried Librewolf, but the unstable RPM repository was very annoying, because zypper disallows system updates if even one…
