you need to be able to have vacations and save for retirement and do fun things from time to time

ahem actually people only need to exist and survive until they work themselves to death getting tangled in the gears of my spinning jennys

cube of cheese into their forehead

you can e2e encrypt emails though?

but when is the exact point of “how they were” when 4000 years of erosion has already taken place?

historical conservation isn’t really this cut and dry

sometimes it’s better to restore things, or to do work to prevent them degrading further

if you’re just going to take us back in circles again this discussion is a bit pointless, isn’t it?

if you aren’t refusing to acknowledge they’re ux problems, you’re saying it’s unhelpful to call them what they are, which is obviously nonsense

and again, sane defaults are ux

or i could argue that an issue 90% of people will run into is a higher priority than one 2% of people will run into

or i could argue than the risk of accidentally opening something you didn’t want to is higher than the risk of losing unsaved work

the reason foss sucks when it comes to ux is this attitude of insisting that ux problems are somehow some “other” category of problem, rather than an engineering constraint that needs to be designed around like every other one

case in point, for some reason you’re still refusing to acknowledge that they’re both ux problems. and if you do, your original reply ceases to even make sense.

yet very different

which is why my first words to you were “it is and it isn’t”

binning them into the same category is not helpful

both are caused by people in the foss space not paying enough attention to ux

increased attention to ux could solve both

personally i think categorising all work solely through the lens of severity is unhelpful

Single/double click behavior is a matter of preference.

And defaulting to the preference that most people prefer or are used to is a matter of UX.

Which is why I say they’re both UX decisions.

it is and it isn’t

they’re both bad UX, which FOSS is generally pretty bad at, probably because there’s not as much overlap between people who who are really into FOSS and people who are really into UX

linux-centric communities also tend to be plagued by elitism, which i expect stifles a lot of this kind of thing before proper conversations can take root

that’s not boobs that’s boob

It takes a certain amount of energy for water to exist as water, a certain amount of energy for oxygen to exist as oxygen, and a certain amount of energy for hydrogen to exist as hydrogen

The amount of energy it takes for water to keep being water is less than the sum total of the energy it takes for oxygen and hydrogen to keep being themselves.

When you burn hydrogen, it combines with oxygen in the air and makes water. But that requires less energy to exist, so where does the excess energy go? It’s released as heat.

To split water back into hydrogen and oxygen, you have to re-add that same amount of energy again.

Hydrogen as a fuel isn’t so much a source of energy as a store of energy. A battery doesn’t make energy. You charge it with energy so that you can retrieve that energy later. Similarly, a big power plant electrolyses a bunch of water and makes a bunch of hydrogen. Later, you can use that hydrogen in your car without having to be connected to the big power plant that made it.

this is all probably largely wrong and you should ignore it chemistry SUCKS

The controlled demolition of Israa University makes it pretty obvious that it’s a goal.

I think we can all agree whatever claims you want to make about how it was secretly a training camp don’t really matter, right? If you’re in control of a building enough to go in and plant explosive charges, I think you might be in control of it enough to stop it being used as a training camp.

What’s an alternative that features the presents-giving at the same time of year

Festivus is explicitly non-commercial

powerful isn’t the same as well-structured

it was written to be a language that anybody could read or write as well as english, which just like every other time that’s been tried, results in a language that’s exactly as anal about grammar as C or Python except now it’s impossible to remember what that structure is because adding anything to the language to make that easier is forbidden

when you write a language where its designers were so keen for it to remain human readable that they made deleting all rows in a table the default action, i don’t think “well structured” can be used to describe it

sql syntax doesn’t support even itself correctly i fail to see your point

if you don’t believe that adding more structure to the absolute maniacal catastrophe that is sql is a good thing then i’m going to start to have doubts about your authenticity as a human being

why are you the way that you are?

which is 2-state, which is why it’s powers of 2
