Gnome devs want to decide what is best for you

Rebuttal: I’m extremely fickle, so someone else making choices for me is what I need. In KDE I ~~spent~~ wasted days customizing and just gave up in the end. It’s the same idea as using prettier instead of using your own lint rules: you stop wasting time and just do the thing you’re there to do.

In general, for configs (linting, neovim, etc), I prefer taking something really good and tweaking the parts I dislike—which is the model GNOME uses. Probabilistically, it’s exponentially likely that your preferences are only a little bit away from someone else—just use their thing and spend 15 minutes tweaking them.

A majority? I mean use something else if you like them better, no need to shit on GNOME

I honestly like the vertical integration, but I can see why Linux folks would be annoyed. Honestly GNOME fits my workflow perfectly after a few extensions (mainly Dash to Dock). I’m super fickle, so its rigidity helps

You mean omega, not theta

Surely you could implement this via a sorting algorithm? If you can prove the distance function is a metric and both lists contains elements from the same space under that metric, isn’t the answer to sort both?

What about for personal use? I’m in the market for a relatively high end machine around $2k, but build quality is pretty high up on my priorities.

Forget psychotherapy, it can barely understand anything:

> Hello, I am Eliza. I'll be your therapist today. 
* Hello! How are you?
> Would you prefer if I were not ? 
* Not what?
> Have you asked such questions before? 
* No
> You are being a bit negative and that won't help us move forward. 
* What are you smoking?
> Perhaps in your fantasies I am smoking?

I remember a guy who tied his baby’s rocker to the drive and wrote code to open and close the CD drive repeatedly lol. Fun times.

Thank you so much! That makes sense, and since you explained why, I can look up participles myself :)

Can you help me understand why? Both seem right to me, and GPT is insistent that the original is right

Same. I also have Unlimited, but I’ll stick to Bitwarden because I don’t like having all my eggs in any basket, regardless of how much I trust them.
