“The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That’s the deal.” - C. S. Lewis

Inherent in any great joy is the eventual pain of its loss. Even if we were all immortal, everything changes, nothing gold can stay. Your options are to love and grieve, or to cauterize your emotions and go through life a grey husk.

The channel Horses showed up in my recommendations a couple months ago and I binged most of his upload history immediately. Extremely high effort video essays on a wide variety of interesting topics, with minimal fluff and sparse but gorgeous visuals.

Holy fuck how is this not an onion article title…

Ergodox – I wish I had ordered a moonlander instead, but I’m digging it. I use colemak-dh with a QWERTY later for gaming.

Really as long as it’s ortholinear I’m happy. Blows my mind how many mechanical keyboard aficionados are still on row stagger torture devices.

And even if they did, in many cases they’d be legally obliged to ignore it in favor of profits this quarter. At least in the US.

It wasn’t pseudoscience, it was just given a colonial-centric name that reinforces the view of uncontacted or even just aboriginal peoples as “savage” or “uncivilized”. The described phenomenon is a real thing.

I don’t think there is another agreed upon name? Regardless the idea shouldn’t be attacked because it’s poorly named.

I appreciate KDE for being a comprehensive toolbox that will let just about anyone craft the mouse-driven GUI of their dreams given enough time and effort. I appreciate GNOME for its bold and unified vision, which isn’t afraid to cull features or embrace innovation.

In what sense do you mean “faster” though? If you mean more performant, I haven’t experienced that – both desktops are extremely responsive.

From the comment thread it sounds like the contract might be on shaky ground. The original dev seems to be under the impression that a project licensed under GPLv3 can just be freely changed to another license, which it cannot without explicit consent from all contributors. We don’t know the contract language of course, but the dev said it would “likely” not remain open source, which indicates that he told them they could change it. ZippApps’ lawyers will hopefully notice that and refuse to buy, though either way we shouldn’t trust this maintainer again and should move to the forks.

The word “nauseous” is parallel to “noxious” and means “causing nausea”. If you’re experiencing nausea, you’re nauseated – the thing that made you nauseated is nauseous.
